Student interview

I have learnt enough to function in an Norwegian environment!

Stefan is 26 years from Slovakia and Malwinder is 22 years from India. They both are bachelor of art and enjoy staying at Rønningen.

“I wanted to travel to Norway and experience Norwegian culture and learn Norwegian language. It is fun to try to live far away from my parents, together with new friends in the boarding house”, says Stefan.
“Norwegian language and culture is very exciting. We learn both Norwegian and different facts about the Norwegian society. I find it very exciting to visit different institutions and organizations. For example, we have visited a Norwegian kindergarten, a school  and an institution for old people. In addition it is very interesting to exchange cultural experiences with the students from the entire world, and be a part of multicultural environment.  I have also learnt enough Norwegian to function in an Norwegian environment. I can highly recommend Rønningen. Here you will learn Norwegian and meet very nice people. You will really get memories for the rest of your life.”

“The Norwegian language is rare in India, and I wanted to learn it”, continues Malwinder. “Every day in class is different. The atmosphere is very friendly. We have a very good teacher, and we are making progress in Norwegian every day. In addition, it is really interesting to experience Norwegian culture and society: each week we visit a new enterprise. It was very interesting to see how Norwegians take care of the old people in an institution. I can absolutely recommend to attend Norwegian language and culture at Rønningen. Here you will find an cooperative administration, a good atmosphere, many exciting activities for students, and a good Norwegian teacher who does everything so that we will learn Norwegian.”
