@ jemmyyeo: It might be a good idea if you post an advert in the section language classes in Copenhagen :)

@jemmyyeo. If you arrived in denmark as a worker and have a CPR number. You should be able to have access to free danish classes for 3 years for free. All information you require can be found on this site : http://dedanskesprogcentre.dk/english.html

Hope this helps.

Hi Leif:
I am Spanish, Latinoamerican. Home is Canada but living in Santiago,Chile for now.
I would love to exchange languages, maybe skype, planning a future trip to DK soon.
Let me know, by the way I'm fifty four, but willing to learn at my ol' age.
Cheers,
Jenny.

Hello Jenny,

Thank you for your mail  - Ithink we should try.over skyve an see if it can function. And I will have a look to see how to teach you you Danish which kind of study material is available. Have you found some teaching material on the internet yourself? Have you started?

I think Chile ist 6 hours behind Denmark so if we arrange to meet at 16.00 (4 pm) hours Danish time - your time will be
10.00 (10 AM)

I have my own litle Company (accounting) and I will be verflexible. - What time would you prefer to have a Skype meeting?

Looking forward to hear from you Again.
Leif

Hello Leif:
Thank you for your prompt reply. Skype would work.
I am looking for conversational Danish, and no, I don't have any study material.
I just know very few words..

Like you I am also very flexible with my schedule.
There is only four hours difference Chile/Denmark, 12:00 my time, 16:00 yours.
Shall we give it a try @ this time? or 14:00 my time?

My address gacela525@hotmail.com
Hope to hear back from you,
J.

Congratulations Danmark is a wonderful country. There is a wonderful website that will dramatically help with your learning the Dansk language.  It is call Memrise (memrise.com) and it is free. The format is presented in a game style manner, which makes the learning process much more enjoyable. It will amaze you how quickly you will advance in your verbal/written skills. Good luck, and let me know how you like it. Jo

You are more than welcome. Let me know how you are doing & a little about your new life in Danmark. Didn't read the agreements fully but my E-mail is IIJW@AOL.COM. If i'm breaking any regs I apologize.

It is as you notice an addicting, fun way to learn. Don't forget that one can also create a course, so maybe you'll do so,. Let me know if you do.
