Danish courses in Helsingør

Who can apply?

Speak is offering intensive Danish language courses in Helsingør (Elsinore). The Danish language courses are offered in collaboration with the municipalities Helsingør, Fredensborg and Hørsholm. You can choose between daytime- or evening classes.

Our Danish language courses are for all foreign residents above the age of 18 who have a civil registration number and are entitled to Danish education.

To speak or not to speak

At Speak, we speak Danish from the moment you walk through the door. This will allow you to get by in Danish quickly. We have vast experience with teaching Danish and we know that it works. We will work with your oral and writing skills and we attach great importance to providing you with a correct pronunciation.

You will learn Danish in a classroom setting with other students. This will enable you to expand your network in Denmark and meet other internationals in your area. You might have classmates that are not at the same level as you. Therefore, we will adapt the tuition individually to make sure that you can attend the module tests and final examination as soon as possible.

Danish Education 1, 2 & 3

At Speak Helsingør, we offer Danish classes in all 3 Danish Educations; 1, 2 & 3.

Danish Education 1 & 2 consist of 6 modules. Danish Education 3 consists of 5 modules + an extra module, that you can attend at one of our other departments (The Higher Education Examination). Each module is concluded with a module test.
