“When I found out Siggi was teaching private lessons I didn’t hesitate to reach out to him.”

"Siggi was my first teacher of Icelandic when I started in Tin can factory and since then I have loved the way he teaches and how proactive his lessons are. When I found out he was teaching Icelandic private classes I didn’t hesitate to reach out to him to be one of his students. He is amazing, resourceful and has a lot of good methods and tips. My Icelandic has improved a lot since he became my teacher. I will always admire his way of teaching and his dedication."

"After just 3 lessons with Siggi, the task of learning Icelandic felt less daunting."

Sigurður is a true linguist with a vast knowledge of languages and a genuine passion for teaching Icelandic. I had been learning Icelandic on and off for 3 years, but hadn't really managed to wrap my head around many of the basic rules and constructs of Icelandic. Sigurður was easily able to identify where my knowledge gaps lay and adapt his teaching to my learning requirements to help me grasp these fundamentals in a fun and effective manner. After just 3 lessons with Siggi, the task of learning Icelandic felt less daunting. Learning to speak Icelandic now feels like a realistic possibility for me.
