- About me

Hi! My name is Amanda Christiansen. I’m originally from Copenhagen/Helsingør and currently work as a Danish lecturer at the University of Vienna. I have been teaching Danish as a foreign language since 2016 and truly enjoy helping students discover the language and culture.

I hold a B.A. in Teaching Danish, an M.A. in Scandinavian Studies and an M.A. in Teaching Danish as a Second/Foreign Language for Adults.

As someone who loves learning languages myself, I know how exciting – and sometimes challenging – the process can be. Because of this, I focus on creating a relaxed, supportive and confident learning environment where you feel comfortable speaking and making mistakes. That’s often where the real progress happens.

- My lessons & teaching style

For me, confidence and motivation are key to successful language learning. My goal is for you to enjoy every lesson while making clear progress toward your goals.

I adapt each lesson to your level, learning style and interests, and I regularly check in to make sure the material and approach work well for you. Together we create a learning process that feels motivating, structured and effective.

- Lessons, material & homework

In our lessons I mainly use digital materials and will provide everything we need. If you prefer working with a physical textbook as well, we can find one that suits you.

During the lessons we typically work with reading and listening comprehension, grammar, pronunciation and — most importantly — speaking practice.

You will also regularly receive homework, always a mix of reading, writing and listening exercises that help you practise the new language we worked on in class.

Why learning Danish online with Amanda:
"Learning Danish with Amanda is an absolute pleasure. Not only is she tailoring the content of the course exactly to one's needs, she is also providing valuable background information as well as additional sources in order be able to deepen the understanding of the language in between classes. I also want to highlight her focus on the spoken language while at the same time not neglecting the relevant theoretical information needed to get a good understanding. I can highly recommend her Danish course."
