For students / Danish course, ”Kollegadansk” at Abacus Medicine
Abacus Medicine has been offering Danish lessons for our international employees. It has been a success so we have decided to continue.
Would you like to conversate in Danish with your Danish colleagues without feeling uncertain of your spoken language skills?
Even though your corporate language at Abacus Medicine may be English, the language between colleagues during lunchtime or at the coffee machine quickly turns into Danish. Or an email correspondence starting out in English changes into Danish.
Course content – Kollegadansk
Our focus is practicing oral Danish but as important it is to conversate it is also important to know about the technical language and written procedures in Danish.
Besides learning the spoken language, we will look at cultural and social understanding. For example, the way to be polite in one culture can be considered, unpolite in another. You will also learn about the typical Danish humor and irony.
One of our tools is to record conversations and small talk between course participants and Danish colleagues at the beginning of the course and once again at the end of the course to facilitate and monitor the learning progress.

The tuition will take place at Abacus Medicine once a week from 16-18. The exact weekday of tuition depends on the choice of the majority.
