You know the basics - but real-life Danish is still a challenge
You’ve built a foundation in Danish, but using the language in real life can still feel difficult. You may understand quite a lot, but finding the words yourself - and following natural spoken Danish - is another challenge.
Intermediate 1 is where you start taking your Danish beyond the classroom and into real life. Through 18 real-world topics, you’ll expand your vocabulary, learn useful everyday expressions and continue building your grammar, pronunciation and listening skills - helping you start using Danish more actively in everyday situations.
Your native Danish teacher
I was born and raised just outside Copenhagen, and I’ve been teaching Danish for 16 years. Over the years, I’ve taught students from all over the world, and today more than 118,000 Danish learners follow Lingua Danica online.
My Danish MasterCourses bring together everything I’ve learned from 16 years of teaching: what Danish learners struggle with, what they need to practise, and what helps them make real progress.
I wanted to create a clear and structured way to learn Danish, with thorough explanations and plenty of practice, but also the freedom to learn at your own pace and fit your Danish studies into your life.
And even though the courses are online and self-paced, you’re not left on your own. I’m right there if you get stuck or have a question along the way.
So, are you ready? Let’s learn Danish together! 💚

Planning to stay long-term? A permanent residence permit in Denmark generally requires passing Prøve i Dansk 2 (PD2) or Prøve i Dansk 3 (PD3). The exams at the end of the DU2 and DU3 tracks above. Following the MasterCourses builds the same skills, so you can prepare with confidence. Always check the current official requirements before you plan around them.
