Skype Swedish classes from the excellent Folkuniversitet

27/1/2017

Folkuniversitet is one of our very favourite places for Swedish classes. We've done six courses there between us and they have all been very good. They now have conversation classes via Skype, so you can be anywhere in the world and take part.

This spring term 2017, they have 20 Swedish courses running via Skype, including three conversation courses to help you get it grips with everyday chattering.

The conversation classes are at three levels:

Level B1, please see the following link
Level B2, please see the following link
Level C1, please see the following link

The zones that once surrounded Stockholm disappear tomorrow (Monday 9th January 2017) when the public transport system gets a ticket and pricing overhaul. One fixed fare for each type of ticket will now be the case - making it more expensive on short journeys (an increase for the first time since 2011) and better value for those commuting in.

Single tickets

Apply for journeys where you have started the last part of the journey with 75 minutes of the start.

Using an Access card: 30 kronor for adults, 20 kronor for seniors, students, young people
Buying via mobile phone, in an machine, at the counter: 43 kronor for adults, 29 kronor for seniors, students, young people
Buying from a condutor: 60 kronor for adults, 40 kronor for seniors, students, young people

Single tickets to/from Arlanda

Train plus tube/bus: 150 kronor for adults, 140 kronor for seniors, students, young people
Just the Arlanda train journey (if you already have an SL-ticket): 120 kronor for adults, 120 kronor for seniors, students, young people over 18. Under 18s travel free.

For more information, check out SL's website (mostly in English) here.
