SWE 1A: Beginning
Class Description
Start with the Basics! In this class we start with the basic word "tack" (thanks) and its variations. We cover the family as we move through nouns and present tense verbs. At the end of the class, we will be practicing ordering a sandwich and a slice of princess cake (prinsesstårta) at a café. Covers the text "Swedish: The Basics" from the beginning to Chapter 3. The book is used throughout the first year series (SWE 1A - 1B - 1C). Please purchase textbook before class begins! TEXT- Swedish:The Basics (8th Edition) Available at https://www.blurb.com/b/10195468-swedish-the-basics FOR WA STATE RESIDENTS: Please be aware that as of Oct 1, 2025, the state of Washington is imposing sales tax on all classes over 1 person except for K-12 and University/College classes. This is true for online classes and in-person classes, non-profit and for-profit organizations, educational and recreational purposes. It includes the 2-person ballet class your 5 and 7-year old kids are taking, the cooking classes you and your partner sign up for at the local PCC, and the self-defense course your niece teaches online. Of course, it also includes online and in-person language classes offered by non-profits like SLI. Last quarter, because the new law was sprung right in the middle of our registration period and without much notice, SLI decided to pay the sales tax for the students, but we will regrettably not be able to continue this practice in 2026. The sales tax at this point is 6.5% + local tax (wherever in WA you live). This amount be added at checkout. :( sorry ):

If you have any problem enrolling online, contact SLI (admin@scanlang.org; Ph 425-773-5370) STUDENTS WITHDRAWING FROM OR CHANGING CLASSES If a student wants to leave a class, there are 4 possibilities open to them: 1) Move to another class (available up to and including the 3rd class day) 2) Receive a tuition credit from SLI, prorated if applicable. 3) Receive a full or partial refund, as described below (available up to and including the 2nd class day). 4) Donate the tuition to SLI (always available). DETAILS (to implement any of these options, please call 425-773-5370 or write to admin@scanlang.org) 1) Move to another class. You may move to a different class (even to a different language!) up to (and including) the 3rd class as long as the instructor of your new class agrees. After the 3rd class, this option is no longer available. Moving to Another Class: Tuition Differences. If the New Course costs MORE: the student will pay the difference between the amounts. If the New Course costs LESS: SLI will apply the difference to a future class, issue a refund for it, or the student can donate it to SLI. 2) Apply the tuition to a later class. You may request that SLI keep your tuition and apply it toward another class in the future. When you take the later class, please do not book online. Instead, contact SLI and tell us which class you want to apply your credit to. 3) Receive a refund. Contact SLI for a refund before (but NOT including) the 3rd class day to completely withdraw from a class, and you will be issued a full refund minus a minimal processing fee (i.e. you will have 2 classes to decide whether you want to stay or withdraw). 4) Donate. If you wish to donate the money to SLI, let us know and we will issue you a receipt. Remember that donations are tax-deductible. We thank you! COURSE CANCELLATION This will occur if enrollment is too low. We will notify you, and you can decide which option you want. No processing fees will be withheld - you get back all of what you paid.
