At Lolland Language School, we offer distance learning, which takes place online with your language teacher and classmates via Microsoft Teams. Distance learning makes it possible for you to learn Danish if, for example, you have working hours that do not align with our class schedules, or if you prefer to learn Danish online for other reasons. Our distance learning gives you access to qualified teachers and an interactive learning environment that is adapted to your level and needs.
Requirements for Participating in Distance Learning
To participate in distance learning courses, it is required that have a well-functioning computer with the Microsoft Teams program installed and a headset with a microphone. It is also an advantage, but not a requirement, if you understand some English.
How to Get Started with Distance Learning
- Start with the Placement Meeting: At your placement meeting, the language teacher will find a suitable Danish Education course and the corresponding online session.
- Before Your First Online Session: You will be contacted by our administration team to schedule a follow-up meeting, where we will assist you with installing Microsoft Teams, if necessary, and provide you with your course material. You will be set up on Teams with a language school email and UNI login details, to give you full access to all facets of Teams.
- Your First Online Session: Whether you are the only new student or starting with several others, you will receive some basic information about how Microsoft Teams works during your first session. Your first session is also important to familiarize yourself with your teacher and your course.
Benefits of Distance Learning
Flexibility
Learn Danish without having to worry about changing clothes or spending time to commute to school after a long day at work. Our online courses are in the evening 1 time a week and divided into beginners and intermediate levels. This flexibility allows you to participate even when you are on a business trip or if you are go on vacation.
Qualified Teachers
Our experienced and dedicated teachers are ready to help you develop your Danish skills, whether you're a beginner or already have some Danish comprehension. They can also help your with the language technique, if it should be a problem.
Interactive Learning Methods
We use a range of digital tools and methods that make teaching both exciting and effective. You will participate in live sessions, where everyone follows the teacher's instructions and review of e.g. pronunciation, grammar, etc. You will work in group rooms with other students, where you either practice dialogues or solve tasks together. You will also have the opportunity to work independently with different materials, e.g. the course book, preparation of presentations, and written assignments. Of course, it all takes place at your level.
Personal Follow-up
We will follow your progress closely and offer personal feedback, so that you can constantly see how you are improving.
