This B2 Norwegian course is suitable for students who already have good knowledge of Norwegian, equivalent to B1 level, and who want to develop their language skills further.

The course is ideal for adults who want to use Norwegian more accurately and fluently at work, in higher education, in meetings, discussions, written communication or more demanding everyday situations.

At B2 level, you work with more complex texts, nuanced opinions, argumentation, discussion, written accuracy and more advanced language use.

At B2 level, you will learn to use Norwegian more independently, accurately and with greater nuance. You will build on B1 with more advanced vocabulary, better grammatical control, greater fluency and more confidence in both spoken and written communication.

By the end of the course, you will work towards being able to:

• understand the main points of more complex texts
• discuss familiar and current topics in Norwegian
• participate more spontaneously and fluently in conversations and discussions
• express and justify opinions clearly
• argue for different points of view
• write clear, detailed and coherent texts
• use a more varied and precise vocabulary
• handle more demanding communication in work, education and society
• continue preparing for the Norwegian language test at B2 level

The goal is to help you use Norwegian with greater confidence in both professional and social situations.

The course combines speaking practice, discussions, listening exercises, reading comprehension, writing, pronunciation, grammar and vocabulary development.

You will work with practical and varied tasks designed to help you use Norwegian in more advanced situations, such as working life, education, social debate and written communication.

The course is taught in small groups, usually with 3–6 students. This gives you more speaking time, closer follow-up and better opportunities to receive individual feedback from your teacher.

At B2 level, it is important to have enough time to speak, discuss, argue and receive specific feedback on your language use.

In a small class, you get:

• more speaking practice in every lesson
• more individual attention from the teacher
• more opportunities to discuss and express your own opinions
• better practice with fluency, pronunciation and accuracy
• more support with written development
• a safe environment for working with advanced language
• better progression towards B2 and further use of Norwegian at work or in education

This is especially useful if you already communicate in Norwegian but want to express yourself more naturally, correctly and with greater nuance.

Yes. The course gives you a strong language foundation for further preparation for the Norwegian language test at B2 level.

You will work with skills that are relevant for the test, including spoken communication, listening, reading comprehension, writing, argumentation, grammar and vocabulary.

However, the course does not guarantee a specific test result. Your progress will depend on your previous knowledge, attendance, personal effort and how much you practise between lessons.

Yes. B2 is an important level for many learners who want to use Norwegian more professionally and independently.

B2 level can be useful if you want to:

• function better in a Norwegian-speaking workplace
• participate more actively in meetings and discussions
• write more precise emails and texts
• apply for jobs where Norwegian is important
• prepare for further education
• document stronger Norwegian language skills

B2 shows that you can use Norwegian relatively independently and with nuance in many situations.
