#COFFEE BREAK LANGUAGES SERIES#
This series follows on from Seasons 1 and 2 of Coffee Break German. In each episode of this 10-lesson season for intermediate learners you can build your vocabulary, increase your understanding of grammar and learn to use the German language in a more natural way. As always, we hear relevant vocabulary along the way, including: Regisseur/-in, Produzent/-in and Drehbuchautor/-in before challenging you to our final tongue twister of the series! As we hear about his life and international career, we review some important grammar points such as the imperfect irregular tense and scheint zu sein. It’s more important that you dare to speak than to say it perfectly from the start.In the final episode of this season of the Coffee Break German Magazine, we hear a text about the well-known and successful German actor and director, Til Schweiger.
Have the courage to speak to people and do not to worry too much about making mistakes, because it’s by making mistakes that we learn. Read and listen to things you are interested in. I always tell my students that it’s about immersing yourself in a language. Do you have a message for the Coffee Break Community?

Quick-fire roundįavourite language: This may sound strange coming from a Swede, but I really like Danish.įavourite word/phrase in the language: I just learnt the Danish word kvajebajer.įavourite film: Gräns – a quite odd Swedish film about trollsįavourite TV show: I loved the Danish show Borgenįavourite singer: The Swedish singer Annika Norlin and her band Säkertįavourite destination: I love the sea, so Cornwall, the Hebrides or the Swedish archipelago are places I love. If none of my family or friends had time with me, and if she was still alive, I would love to have a fika with Tove Jansson. In Sweden, coffee breaks are an important part of our culture, so I would have a very traditional Swedish fika, with Swedish coffee and kanelbulle or prinsesstårta. I have also enjoyed Mark’s love of ABBA – it’s great when somebody appreciates the highest form of Swedish culture 😉 Where would your ideal coffee break be and with whom?īecause I live abroad, I would choose to have a coffee break with my family or best friends, as I don’t see them enough.

What are your favourite memories of working with Coffee Break?Īs I am quite new to the team, I don’t have so many memories yet, but I have really enjoyed making the podcast, as it’s very different from teaching in a classroom full of students. Nowadays, I enjoy learning other languages as well, and in the last few years I have done classes in Spanish, German and French. All of a sudden, English became a tool to understand a culture and communicate with friends and not just a subject you had to do in school. I haven’t always been interested in languages, but as a teenager I visited Britain and I loved it. What experience have you had speaking and learning other languages? I teach Swedish at the Centre for Open Studies at Glasgow University.
I’ve been teaching adults and children Swedish for the last 10 years, since I moved to Scotland. I am doing the Coffee Break Swedish podcast with Mark.
Hej! My name is Hanna and I joined Coffee Break in 2019.
