Swedish teacher
Dr Anneli Beronius Haake
Course creator & Author
Qualified SWEDEX test leader
Hej, jag heter Anneli.
I'm your Swedish teacher!
My name is Dr. Anneli Beronius Haake. I’m a Swedish teacher, author and the founder of Swedish Made Easy. I’m also a course creator.
At Swedish Made Easy, I create online Swedish courses and offer Swedish lessons online. As a Swedish teacher, I have taught over 30,000 hours since 2005 to adult learners in Europe, Asia and US.
You may have also seen me goofing around on Instagram and Tiktok, with my Swedish syntax and pronunciation videos.
My particular interests are pronunciation and speaking confidence, but I can help you with every aspect of the Swedish language. If you’re a beginner or if you’re much more advanced, I’ll take care of you and help you improve your Swedish.
Books, TV, music and dogs
In 2018, I published the book Teach Yourself Complete Swedish, which is now a bestseller among Swedish course books.
I have worked as a translator and also as a subtitler for films and TV-programmes. Moreover, I have also worked as a language tutor at Middlesex University for their BA Interpreting and Translation students.
In 2019 and 2020, I was the Swedish Teacher in the BBC Two TV-programme Twinstitute.
Brighton (UK) is where I’m based, but I was born in Sweden (Stockholm and Dalarna) and lived there until I was 26. When I am not teaching Swedish online, I sometimes make music, board dogs with my husband in Brighton, and bake bread.
Daniel Lind
Teaching Associate
Qualified SWEDEX test leader
Hej, jag heter Daniel. I'm your Swedish teacher!
I’m Daniel — born and raised in Gothenburg, Sweden. I’ve been teaching since 2008, and I’ve helped students of all ages to learn and grow, both in the UK and internationally.
For eight years, I worked in British primary and secondary schools, and I also taught at the North London Swedish School. Since 2013, I’ve specialised in teaching Swedish online — and I’m now a qualified SWEDEX examiner with over 5,000 teaching hours.
Learn Swedish with confidence — at any level
Whether you’re just starting out or already at an advanced level, I’ll help you build confidence in grammar, vocabulary, and writing. For beginners, we’ll create a strong foundation you can build on. For more advanced learners, I offer regular guidance, feedback, and accountability to help you polish your Swedish.
Passionate about reading, writing — and real conversations
I love helping learners feel more confident when reading and writing in Swedish. I also run our online language café Snacka Fritt, where you can practise speaking in a friendly and supportive space.
And if you’re looking for Swedish lessons for children or teenagers living abroad, I also offer flexible, online tuition tailored to younger learners.
Translator, author — and lover of language
Alongside teaching, I work as a translator (Swedish ↔ English), and I’m passionate about the art of language. One of my published translations is Short Stories in Swedish for Beginners (2020).
I’m also an author — you might spot my name on Steampunk Fairytales or The Clause Conundrum. Outside of work, I love writing, watching football, and spending time with my two kids here in London.
Stefan Holmström
Project Associate
Voice Trainer
Hej, jag heter Stefan. Jag är expert på uttal!
I’m Stefan Holmström, and I often collaborate with Swedish Made Easy.
Projects I’m involved in include the course Tone Your Swedish, and I also create workshops and events on Swedish pronunciation.
However, I’m not a Swedish teacher! Instead, I’m a professional opera singer and singing teacher.
I'm an opera singer and voice trainer
I’ve been working with singers of all genres and levels using Estill Voice Training (EVT) as a baseline for safe and sustainable voice use. As a part of this, I offer online vocal training and workshops from my studio in Brighton (UK).
In the past, I’ve performed many different roles in opera, musical theatre and concerts in Sweden, Norway, Ireland, Germany and Greece.
In the UK, I’ve performed at venues like Glyndebourne, Grange Park Opera, Opera Holland Park. In addition, I’ve also been a member of the Phantom of the Opera Company at Her Majesty’s Theatre, London.
