Just ask my mom!
“My Siggi is a unique boy. He is patient, understanding, and always ready to put himself in others’ shoes. Siggi respects everybody and is ready to listen to different points of view. There is no question so insignificant that he isn’t ready to find ways to answer it in such a way that I understand what the question was really about. Siggi is also helpful, punctual, and reliable in anything he sets his mind on. I am so lucky to have this wonderful son.”
What private students have to say
“I was very impressed with Siggi’s energetic and engaged way of teaching. He was available, friendly, competent, and knowledgeable and I learned a lot from our classes. I can thoroughly recommend Siggi as a teacher.”
“Siggi is an excellent teacher, he is very patient and his classes are a lot of fun. His background and interest in linguistics means he can give great context and explanation of icelandic for second language learners, 10/10 would recommend.“
"Siggi was my first teacher of Icelandic and since then I have loved the way he teaches. When I found out he was teaching Icelandic private classes I didn’t hesitate to reach out to him. My Icelandic has improved a lot since he became my teacher.
"In Reykjavík I found the best Icelandic teacher one can possibly have. Siggi does not only teach the language but also gives many useful information about how to learn it. I highly recommend him to anyone who is interested in learning Icelandic."
"Classes with Sigurður are a real learning experience. Siggi knows how to adapt to the needs and learning patterns of each and every student and is really able to make Icelandic look easi(er)!"
"Siggi is a great teacher. If you are looking for someone who will tailor the class completely to you, brings in great humor and unconventional new ways to tickle your brain waves to reach new language levels he is your go-to-person. Absolutely recommended."
"Siggi is the rare type of teacher who is able to make learning fun. He is able to explain difficult grammar concepts in a straightforward way that is easy to remember and he is wonderful at helping you build confidence with your new language.”
"Learning Icelandic by myself was close to a disaster, until I got the guidance from Icelandic Made Easier. The great mysteries of Icelandic grammar are no more! I really progressed by leaps and bounds and would highly recommend it."
What independent students have to say
"I am really happy and surprised with my results: after just 2-3 weeks my understanding of Icelandic increased significantly. The Q&A sessions were really helpful. I would definitely recommend the course to everybody."
I have a busy life and cannot always count on a consistent time to meet with someone. With this program, I had the freedom to work whenever I had a free moment. I have learned so much, all on my timetable and not someone else's.
"I've seen my skills improve greatly and I am very happy with the results. The learning process suits me perfectly because it is tangible and you're in charge of your own learning pace. I just need to keep up the good work!"
"I was concerned that I would stop being self-directed after the first week... kind of like buying a gym membership, but I went ahead anyway, and it helps you to stay focused and accountable for your own progress. It’s a great supplement to self-directed learning."
“I wasn’t sure if I would be able to learn on my own, but tried the course and noticed a change after 3 weeks, even though I didn’t spend a lot of time on it every day. You don’t need to have a lot of time. If you have a lot of questions about the Icelandic language, go for it!”
“I used to be afraid of speaking Icelandic, not making much progress. But now learning a language is damn easy and so much fun! I've learned more Icelandic in three weeks with this course than in my entire life. And I did a BA in Icelandic.”
