Swedish as a foreign language

Folkuniversitetet in Stockholm is an adult education institute affiliated to Stockholm University. We are well known for our work in the field of language teaching and for our international contacts. We have been organising courses in Swedish as a foreign language for almost fifty years.

The courses are designed for adults with high demands on quality and professionalism.

We have well-qualified and experienced teachers who teach exclusively in Swedish.
The aim of our courses is to develop all four language skills (reading, writing, speaking and listening) with the main emphasis on spoken communication.
Every course has its own course plan and the levels in our course plans correspond with the common european Framework of reference for languages (ceFr).
We also use the CEFR to assess language ability and place our students.

Test your level

Here you can see the CEFR scale. It helps you to roughly identify your level. If you have any doubts we recommend you take the Placement Test

How the scale works
Among our courses you may see different scales of the CEFR divided into modules. The text tells what you should know after having finished a level. In the modules to the right you may see our courses available at each level. The +sign or –sign is to divide the levels even further. Those courses taken part time are divided into 1 and 2 parts.
