Learning Swedish was a beautiful experience because I could get into the idiodsyncrasy of the Swedes and it has also helped me in getting a better job in my home country.

It's pretty good that the lectures are held in English; but furthermore I think it's essential the get insights in the language of your host country. This is possible at Växjö Unversity.

Most Swedes speak English so it was pretty easy to get around. Although you need basic knowledge for everyday things like groceries, bank stuff, buss schedule etc all in Swedish.
