About the workshop

According to EF, Sweden consistently ranks as one of the top nations in English proficiency for non-native speakers. But while most Swedes are more or less fluent, writing about and marketing oneself or business in English can be more complicated than you think...

Because of how the Swedish language is constructed and uses certain words, we often see specific kinds of mistakes when Swedes use English. The text may miss the mark (and thus fail to connect with potential customers) using the wrong tone, nuance, or cultural reference. Don’t miss out on potential business opportunities because your English was not said or written properly. Sign up for this workshop today!

Link to the workshop will be sent out on October 7 via e-mail.
