Our way of teaching Danish
Targeted instruction from experts
When preparing you for the Danish Exam 3 (PD3), we draw on our many years of experience as PD3 examiners. Remember that your teacher is a former PD3 examiner. That’s why we’re so good at giving you practical and tangible instruction for every aspect of the exam.
The course materials include past versions of actual PD3s, helping you familiarize yourself with the structure of the exam. We work with reading strategies, practicing vocabulary, and common grammatical errors.
- A thorough introduction to the complete Danish Exam 3.
- A review of how the components of the exam are assessed by the examiners.
- Thorough instruction in structuring and composing texts for the written portion of the exam, helpful reading strategies, and preparing your presentation for the oral part of the exam.
- An assessment of your current speaking, writing and reading skills – and the help you need to improve. We use the 7-point grading scale that is also used in the Danish Exam.
Through numerous written assignments, oral presentations and individual feedback from your instructor, you’ll build an understanding of your strengths and improve your weaknesses in the Danish language.
The PD3 preparation course gave me motivation to "get into it". The practical experience of doing the oral situation description in class was quite useful and in a relatively safe space to make mistakes. Also, tips and tricks with the written and oral from the teacher's perspective were useful in knowing what the format of the test would be conducted.

You must speak English and have attended school for at least 12 years to enroll in the PD3 preparatory course. In order to achieve the learning goals of the course, it is essential that you participate actively in the classroom. We expect you to regularly attend classes and to spend at least two to five hours a week on homework.
The course is for everyone who has signed up to take the PD3 exam – even if you think that you’re very good at Danish and expect to pass the exam with flying colors. In our experience, you’ll achieve better results if you’ve practiced in advance with an experienced teacher and are completely familiar with the exam’s structure and assessment criteria.
My reading skills have improved and I have learned to write more coherently in Danish. The teacher graded our written assignments and explained what to expect on exam day. The lessons were varied and never boring.
