She remembers learning through English songs but didn't know what they were singing most of the time.
Hej is "hello" in Danish.
Girl names like Freja, Emma and Sophie/Sophiaj are popular. Some common boy names are Mads, Casper and Christian.
The courses are fairly similar to American ones: Danish, math, science, religion, PE and history. One that stands out is a course focused on being outdoors and learning about the environment. From a young age, kids are sent outside to freely play and interact with nature. It's seen as a valuable part of development in Denmark and other Scandinavian countries.
As she got older, they started taking courses covering English, the sciences, and German or French. Her favorites were PE, especially when it was a swimming class, and the other language courses.
Homework is very rarely handed out. She recalled receiving math homework with six questions on it, but that was about it.
She loved playing sports. She did soccer, swimming and gymnastics (which she still does now!).
As a kid, she didn't really have anyone in mind. As a teenager, her favorites were Zac Eferon, Dylan O’brien, Selena Gomez, Rihanna, Shakira and Lady Gaga.
