Target group
The primary target group for the course are employees at OsloMet teaching with a first language other than Norwegian. If places are available, partners may also be admitted. A1 is for beginners, and no previous knowledge is required.
About the course
The goal is for the participants to be able to use basic Norwegian, orally and in writing, in social and professional contexts in the workplace. To an increasing extent, the participants should be able to understand what they read and hear and be able to express themselves orally and in writing at a basic level. The teacher will inform you about the course books in use.
Course dates
Lessons for A1 are given on Mondays and Thursdays from 10:30 to 1:15, i.e. three lessons each time. The first day of lessons is Monday, September 8. Rooms will be announced later. On some Wednesdays, lessons will also be given from 2:30 to 3:30, for all language levels. There we will sing some Norwegian songs, and address some general, common, language challenges.
Learning outcomes
Norwegian language, written and spoken, at A1 level. The course corresponds to the Common European Framework of Reference of Languages descriptions of A1-level language competencies (coe.int)
