    Gisle is a very nice person and a good teacher, I like his attention to correct pronunciation and encouraging approach.

    Hva likte du ikke ved dette kurset?

    I don't like situations when we have to repeat or read, spell something together at the same time.
    It produces indistinctive noise and it is unproductive.
    As a person on the autism spectrum with sensory vurnelabilities, I find this noises painful.
    What is more, I am pretty sure, that it is unpleasant for most neurotypical persons too.

    I have got another issue with additional classes (apart from lessons with Gisle).
    Many of your teachers use Adobe Connect software which is generally considered as one of the worst online meeting platforms.
    I work as a Quality Assurance Engineer in the IT industry and software testing is a part of my profession, that is why I am more aware of few Adobe issues that cause difficulties for some students.
    I have noticed that during meetings via Adobe, ~50-60% of people (including myself) has repeating problems with disconnecting microphones, which is unusually high number comparing to other platforms (i.e. Zoom, Google Meet).
    These problems cause o lot of confusion and disrupt the flow of our meetings.

    Its an intense volume of information take in per class but Gisle manage to get through it with a sense of humour and clear description of the class of the day, which made it more enjoyable.

    Hva likte du ikke ved dette kurset?

    The inability to move the Monday class to another time. I have to travel for work every second Monday and the 5 pm option is too close to original time. Means i need to miss the Monday class every 2 wks.

    Overall it is a good course but it’s not easy to keep up with the fast track nature of the course.

    I think the content and the course are good, just the delivery through zoom was a challenge for me.

    On-line format, immediate feedback from the teacher if ask any questions

    Hva likte du ikke ved dette kurset?

    Lack of recordings if I skip a class, lack of practice in front of a teacher (we do assignments in breakout rooms, but it's not always clear if we do it right or wrong, because there no a teacher in every breakout room all the time, a teacher need to jump in between rroms)

    1. The course is in rush.

    2. Lingu should make the teacher familiar with all the tools that will be used in class.

    Online learning platform (Samaneh's journey)

    Hva likte du ikke ved dette kurset?

    some of the simple A1 online classes which are available for booking start on the same time as that of my already registered instructor lead A1 classes or immediately after them and it is very difficult to take next classes immediately after attending almost 2 hours class, because there is a lot to digest.

    There is only one class on weekend that too on saturday during working hour (because i work six days a week) so there should be flexible timing for weekend

    Hva likte du mest ved dette kurset?

    Learning a new language is always a challenge but I like that there is repetition of the basics as progress as well. It allows the brain to absorb information.

    Hva likte du ikke ved dette kurset?

    Not about the course but myself. I would love to have more time to study.

    The learning material is never boring. I love the videos and the given examples.
