Almost everyone speaks English pretty well, about Swedish was more difficult to learn it because there were not many courses at University so i had to do an extra effort by my own to learn it

Studying abroad is the best way to improve quickly your language skills : you have no choice of speaking another language and you can appreciate speaking it in everyday life (and not only in courses, as we all do in our home universities). I really improved my English written and spoken language and I now feel at ease when i have to express myself in english. Concerning the swedish language, there are no difficulties as every swedish people speak perfect english. You can still learn some sentences, just for fun!

I am one who loves meeting people and sharing thoughts out of the classroom. I couldnt learn Swedish from the host students because they never interacted with International Students except at parties when they are Drunk.What can one learn from a drunk? The experience could have been better if the host students didnt lock themselves away
