Swedish pronunciation
Expert Swedish language coaching for singers and speakers
Stefan offers Swedish pronunciation training that is rooted in vocal anatomy and physiology. This approach will quickly help you to know exactly how to make all the specific Swedish sounds and how to use Swedish melody and rhythm. Awareness of your pronunciation muscles teaches you how it feels to speak Swedish as well as what it sounds like.
​
One-to-one sessions with Stefan are ideal for:
-
Swedish learners (A2/B1 intermediate and up) who want to improve their Swedish pronunciation
-
Professionals working in Sweden who want to communicate more confidently in Swedish
-
Classical and CCM (contemporary commercial music) singers who want to sing Swedish art song or pop songs
60 minute online sessions are recommended. New clients are welcome to book a free online 15-minute consultation.
"Even though I’ve been learning Swedish for several years, one-to-one pronunciation sessions with Stefan have really been a game changer. Stefan is a great teacher who shares his expert knowledge in very practical ways. With Stefan’s help, I am now speaking Swedish more clearly and confidently."

What are sessions like with Stefan?
Sessions are tailored to your own personal development goals, so the actual content depends on you and your priorities. They may involve a vocal warm-up and muscle training before working on a specific issue. This may be, for example, a song, general pronunciation, phrasing, a presentation, a pitch or a script.
Tone Your Swedish
In addition to one-to-one sessions, Stefan is proud to offer Tone Your Swedish, a comprehensive online Swedish pronunciation course that he has created in partnership with Dr Anneli Beronius Haake, a Swedish language teacher and founder of Swedish Made Easy.
