Reading Room for Women
Do you wish to learn Norwegian and practice by speaking with other women? The reading group Leserom (Reading Room) might be for you! We read short texts, stories and fairy-tales in comprehensible Norwegian, and discuss what we read.
Are you learning Norwegian and do you wish to speak Norwegian with others? Are you Norwegian and do you wish to speak with people from all over the world? At the Language Cafe, we chat over a cup of tea or coffee, and start our conversations with a specific subject or a game. Simple catering.
Welcome to the Language Cafe for adults, Wednesdays at 12:45–14:45. The Language Cafe is free of charge, requires no sign-up and is provided in affiliation with Det Felles Innvandrerråd i Hordaland.
