School description

Learn Norwegian & live in your private teacher's home around Oslo with Home Language International!

Home Language International (HLI) is a family-run business offering language courses in more than 20 languages in over 30 countries worldwide, including Norwegian lessons at an experienced private teacher's home in Norway. More than 5,000 students take advantage of our services every year. Ian Josephs, Danielle Josephs, their 5 adult children and an expert team of dedicated staff all put in very long hours for HLI.

You stay in an experienced teacher's family home, have one-to-one Norwegian lessons and then continue to use the language during the rest of your stay in Oslo. Because you are the only student, you are guaranteed individual attention. The lessons are completely designed for you, so the teacher will focus exactly on what you need. Mealtime conversation, television and social contacts are all in Norwegian.

All of our teachers in Norway have a university degree (or equivalent) and/or a recognised teaching certificate. All teachers have been visited by one of our local organisers. Their qualifications have been checked and their homes throughly inspected. During your stay in Oslo, a local organiser will monitor your progress and make sure your experience is both happy and successful.

Home Language International (HLI) is accredited by the Accreditation Body for Language Services (ABLS), Association of Language Travel Organisations (ALTO), and UNOSEL.

"It was a very interesting experience, but too expensive."

Eugenia Madalina Argesanu, student from Germany

The Idea to learn intensive Norwegian in Teacher‘s Home in Oslo was very exciting for me. I could combine daily talk with the norwegian Teacher, indoor and outdoor activities, visiting Oslo, practically resolving from problems for example registering to authorities, social activities like shopping and visiting a library, sportive activities in nature like Swimming in the sea or river and hiking, also studying of norwegian Books, fast all of these activities sometime in the pleasant teachers‘s company.
I could improve my norwegian language due to daily conversation with the teacher and grammar book exercises under her supervising.
The location was in a nice traditional norwegian house, I had my private room and bathroom, very clean and pleasant. TV, Internet and a nice Garden were also. Transport and shopping facilities in very little distance, also path to wood and river quickly to reach. On Mornings was a lot trafficnoise, but on evening and night was very quiet. Meals were ok, the teacher has very good cookingstalent, she cooked sometimes, she was friendly, communicative and very helpful.
It was an interesting experience!
