Norskprøve courses

Velkommen til Norge!

Norskprøven is a series of exams designed for foreign residents who need to demonstrate adequate knowledge of Norwegian, for permanent residence, citizenship, career development, or personal achievement.

Our preparatory course, which can be taken at all levels (A1 to C1), is perfect for students aiming to excel in a Norwegian public exam. Whether you need to revisit and reinforce material from levels A1 and A2, B1, or B2, this course will thoroughly prepare you for your next step in the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages (CEFR). Preparatory courses are also ideal for enhancing existing Norwegian proficiency and refining your Norwegian language skills, regardless of your exam plans.

Join us and build the confidence and competence needed to succeed!

In this course you will get an insight into the Norskprøve structure, authentic norskprøve-style exercises as well as strategies to tackle these. The preparation course includes training for all four parts of Norskprøve: reading test (leseprøve), listening test (lytteprøve), writing test (skriveprøve) and oral test (muntlig prøve). Practice solving the exam tasks in our test simulation, developed specifically to help you prepare for the Norwegian language proficiency test. 

It is highly recommended that you have completed a standard Norwegian language course at a lower level than the preparation course you want to take. For instance, completing the A2 standard course is a prerequisite for taking the A2-B1 preparation course, whilst completing the B1 standard course is optional. In the same manner, completing the B1 standard course is a prerequisite for taking the B1-B2 course, the standard B2 course is not.

During the course, you will build the vocabulary and grammar within the relevant topic areas. Some of the key points preparation course covers:

• The Norwegian tense system and how to talk about the past, the present and the future – useful for effectively discussing your personal journey, professional experiences, and future plans. 
• Expressing your opinion using the verbs tror, synes and mener
• Noun and adjective declensions, including definite/ indefinite form and comparison of adjectives, to improve accuracy and descriptive abilities. 
• Use of possessives.
• Norwegian sentence structure: word order, subordinate clauses, sentences with “det”, and conditional clauses (at B1-B2 level), helping you to speak and write with confidence and clarity.
• Linking words: these are essential to advanced writing performance, and your teacher will provide detailed feedback on how to use them effectively in your text.
• Real and unreal conditional clauses, sentences with “det” as the grammatical subject, sentences with the subordinating conjunction “som”
• Development of spoken skills, including fluency, pronunciation, rhetorical devices, debating skills, giving reasoning for your view, nuancing opinions and being creative with your word choice, which will expand your vocabulary to sound more natural and precise (essential to expressing yourself in Norwegian and passing the oral test).
