Learn Swedish with teacher Hanna and her student Mark. Each lesson is like going for a coffee (or a fika!) with your friend who happens to speak Swedish and is helping you learn in a relaxed, enjoyable way.
Coffee Break Swedish is not a simple series of "listen and repeat" audio programmes: in each lesson Hanna explains how the language works, helping Mark - and you - to manipulate the language and use it in practical situations. As a learner Mark asks questions, and makes mistakes, so through Hanna's explanations, corrections and pronunciation tips you'll build your confidence and begin to understand and speak the language.
You'll also build your cultural knowledge with the help of our cultural correspondent Emma who shares information on Swedish culture in many of the lessons.
In the same time it takes you to sit down and enjoy a coffee in your favourite coffee shop, you can make progress with your Swedish. Our 15-20 minute lessons are perfect to keep you focused and let you develop your confidence in regular sessions.

Perfekt för mig!
Jag vill lära mig svenska, och det här är det bästa som finns. Perfekt för nybörjare speciellt! Fem stjärnor från mig!
Practical and entertaining!
I’m a newbie learner of Swedish and I find this podcast very helpful and entertaining. I like the conversational approach and the depth at which they cover a subject. This is much more helpful than the numerous 2-3 minute podcasts out there.
Thank you for providing this great resource!
Väldigt bra podd
I am from the USA and I have been studying Swedish awhile now but I love listening to this podcast because I don’t get to hear Swedish out loud often and this helps me with listening and pronunciation. It’s informative and I love the hosts.
