Danish & English · your path to fluency

Begin with the hardest word

Language teaching for professionals, their partners and new arrivals who want to live and work in another language — and a translation service for when words and meaning have to be exactly right.

Fluency is a skill you use, not a certificate you earn

Rødgrød is a language consultancy for anyone who wants to live fully in Danish or English — professionals navigating meetings and negotiations, partners settling into a new life here, or simply people who want to speak with more ease and confidence. I teach the language you'll actually use: at work, at the school gate, with neighbours, in the conversations that make a place feel like home.

Every session starts from where you are. No fixed syllabus. Just a clear path from your current level to what you want to achieve.

Learning modules

Three ways I work with language

01

Danish, from the ground up

From everyday essentials — the school gate, the supermarket, the doctor's — to confident fluency at work. For newcomers finding their footing and for near-native speakers wanting to perfect their language.

Beginner → Advanced
02

English, for work and life

Presentations, negotiation and correspondence — plus the everyday English of meeting people, settling in, and feeling at home in the conversation.

Business · Everyday
03

Translation & editing

Information material, reports, web copy — and personal documents — translated and refined between Danish and English. Accurate and natural.

Charlotte, founder of Rødgrød
About

Hello, I'm Charlotte

Why Rødgrød? Ask any non-Dane to say "rødgrød med fløde" and watch them try — it's a beloved Danish dessert and, unofficially, a rite of passage for anyone learning the language.

Language is more than grammar and vocabulary. At its core, it's about communication and connection — and the ability to master the language whether you're at the school gates, in a meeting, or simply finding the words to express who you are.

Native Danish, I lived, worked, and raised a family in London for 25 years before relocating back to Denmark. I have spent 18 years teaching language at an international school in Denmark — an experience that gave me a firsthand, unique insight into navigating a new language and culture, both in everyday life and the workplace. That experience became the foundation for Rødgrød.

I teach linguistics. But more than that, I teach confidence. My approach is bespoke, built around your words, your context, and your vision for where language should take you.

Alongside teaching, I also translate — across English and Danish. Recent projects include translating a company website into English and translation work for a museum.
