Highlights: Lina Amer is part of a group of people who want to learn more about Swedish. The group meets every week to talk about the language and to learn new skills. Lina Amer: "It is important to learn how to talk in a language that is not your own" The group is based in Stockholm, Sweden, but can travel to other parts of the world for the event. The event is open to anyone who wants to come and learn about the Swedish language and culture. For more information on the group, visit: www.linaamer.com.

In the mornings, the language group meets at the meeting place Årby in Eskilstuna to learn more Swedish by discussing with each other, while at the same time having the opportunity to get help to apply for a job with a job center. There are no written tests here, but here it is important to talk. "In the beginning they don't dare to say anything, but after a while they dare more and more," says language supporter Lina Amer.
