ICELANDIC ONLINE PLUS
Icelandic Online PLUS is an 8-week course open to all those interested in Icelandic language and culture.
Icelandic Online PLUS is a distance learning course that covers the main aspects of Icelandic grammar and all four language skills (speaking, reading, listening, and writing). Participants receive individual feedback from their tutor on written exercises, instruction in grammar and vocabulary, and are invited to participate in weekly online live sessions to practice oral skills (see further information below). This is a self-directed online course, which means you can study whenever and wherever you like as long as you have an internet connection. Icelandic Online PLUS is based on the free, open-access course Icelandic Online, so registering for the free course will provide a good idea of how PLUS works. However, PLUS includes additional assignments, individual feedback, and live sessions with a tutor that the free Icelandic Online does not offer.
