# <center>An Interesting Offer</center>

Two weeks ago a friend of mine contacted me and asked for help. He came to Sweden from South Africa a year ago and he’s been working full-time ever since. As such, he doesn’t have time for taking regular Swedish classes, nor energy for evening school. So he asked me if I had some ideas for him to help him learn Swedish. Needless to say, ideas I had!

## <center>Private Lessons</center>
I offered him to be his private tutor. I am already teaching Swedish language full-time and [I’m loving it](https://steemit.com/work/@oleg326756/i-love-my-job)! So I thought I was qualified enough to teach privately, just to a single student. I hadn’t had private students until that point, but I thought it would be fun. And, indeed, it proved to be a nice and rewarding experience. My friend is a quick learner and his prior knowledge of Afrikaans and English helps him make a swift progress in Swedish, another Germanic language. It’s fun to work with him! And I’m always up to make some money aside from my main job. Side hustles is a great way to put one’s time and energy into cash, while having fun. Don’t you agree?

Now we are meeting once or twice a weeks in the city library for 90-minutes study sessions. We work on all four skills in the course of our lesson: reading, listening comprehension, writing and speaking. I am cheering for my friend and I am confident that soon he’ll be speaking Swedish well enough. Please wish my friend good luck!
