Icelandic for Beginners (A1)
A 6-hour Icelandic course for beginners that will teach you the basics of the language.
STARTING ICELANDIC MAY FEEL INTIMIDATING, BUT YOU DON’T HAVE TO FIGURE IT OUT ALONE!
👉🏼 Are you excited to learn Icelandic but unsure where to begin?
👉🏼 Would you love to connect more deeply with Iceland’s culture and traditions, but everything still feels unfamiliar?
👉🏼 Are you dreaming of visiting Iceland, yet worried that not speaking the local language could hold you back?
If any of this sounds familiar, you are in the right place.
I created Beginner A1 to give you a clear and approachable starting point. We will begin with the essentials and gradually build the vocabulary, grammar, and everyday expressions you need to take your first steps with confidence.
Learning Icelandic can open the door to richer travel experiences, meaningful conversations, and a deeper connection with the country and its people.
With a structured path and my support throughout the course, you will be able to make steady progress without feeling overwhelmed.

Góðan daginn (Good day)!
I'm Óskar Bragi!
I began teaching Icelandic to connect with people who are passionate about the language. For over 10 years, teaching online has allowed me to build meaningful connections with students while rediscovering Icelandic in a deeper way.
When I’m not teaching Icelandic, you’ll find me:
- Enjoying quality time with my daughter.
- Immersing myself in the world of movies (I’m a bit of a human IMDB and I love everything about filmmaking).
- Exploring the breathtaking and dramatic landscapes of Iceland.
- Occasionally taking a refreshing cold plunge (sometimes in the Atlantic Ocean).
- Often warming up with a delicious cup of coffee.
For those looking to improve their Icelandic quickly, here’s my best advice:
Use filler words like „heyrðu“, „hérna“, or even „ha?“
Why?
Because they give you time to think about what you're going to say next, and they signal to native speakers that you know some of the everyday basics.
And remember: everyone struggles with a new language at first! So don’t be too hard on yourself.
Connect the language to something you love, like a hobby (doesn’t have to be movies or cold plunges), to make learning more enjoyable.

Discover what students have shared about learning Icelandic with me
The Beginner A1 course is designed for English speakers with no previous knowledge of Icelandic.
Because English and Icelandic are very different, I explain most concepts in English so they are easier to understand, and you can gradually become comfortable with Icelandic.
We begin with the essential foundations and increase the difficulty step by step, giving you a clear and manageable introduction to the language.
BASIC EXPRESSIONS AND GRAMMAR
Learn essential greetings and become familiar with the foundational grammar you need to form simple sentences. These building blocks will prepare you to understand and use Icelandic with greater confidence as you progress.
EVERYDAY COMMUNICATION
Develop the skills to handle familiar situations in Icelandic. You’ll learn how to introduce yourself, ask and answer basic questions, express gratitude, apologize, and order food and drinks.
ALPHABET, NUMBERS, AND PRONUNCIATION
Become familiar with the Icelandic alphabet, numbers, and essential sounds. You’ll practice pronouncing letters and words more accurately, helping you understand others and make yourself understood.
ESSENTIAL VOCABULARY
Build your vocabulary lesson by lesson with useful topics such as colors, animals, food, seasons, and days of the week. Through listening activities, practical exercises, and regular practice, you’ll begin to understand simple Icelandic dialogues.
