    You don't want to lose what you learned. You want to get better.

  • The lessons aren't quite enough.

    You want to practise more, at home or on the bus, whenever you have time.

Beyond SFI is built for exactly this.

Situations from your life

The content follows Skolverket's four areas: everyday, social, student and working life.

    Book a time, describe your symptoms and know where to turn when it's urgent.

  • Everyday life

  • Your landlord

  • Friends and neighbours

  • Authorities

  • Work and studying

    Call in sick, have fika with colleagues, work in a group and write to your teacher.

Beyond SFI Plus: For maximal success

Get AI feedback on what you write and say, and practise real conversations with AI

The course is free. With Plus you get feedback on your own sentences, seconds after you finish. And only with Plus you practise real situations in chats with an AI partner: book the appointment, explain a delay, speak up to your landlord. Safe, with no one watching, as often as you like.

What's included for you

Plus

AI feedback on your texts

Your own sentences, corrected. You see what to change, a better version and the reason.

Ett vänligt sms. Amina förstår varför du inte kommer och vad du föreslår.

Change this

  • Igår jag var sjuk.

    Igår var jag sjuk.

    Efter ”igår” kommer verbet först.

  • Jag måste stanna hemma med hon.

    Jag måste stanna hemma med henne.

    Efter ”med” skriver du ”henne”.

What works

Bra start: ”Hej Amina! Tack för senast.”

Öva på ordföljd efter tidsord: idag, igår, på torsdag.

Quality

Why you can trust Beyond SFI

  • Follows Skolverket's syllabus

    The knowledge requirements in Skolverket's syllabus for SFI (Svenska för invandrare), courses C and D, are our starting point. We start where SFI ends.

  • Reviewed in two steps

    First, AI tools check language, level and structure. Then an SFI teacher approves the content.

  • Free, for real

    The course, the exam and the certificate are free. Plus is optional.

  • Your data is stored in the EU

    No ads. For AI feedback and chats, only the text is sent to AI services, never your name. Nothing is used to train AI models. You can delete your account yourself, any time.

Beyond SFI is independent and not affiliated with Skolverket or municipal SFI.

About

Beyond SFI was built by someone who walked the same road

Hi, I'm Tobias. I come from Germany 🇩🇪 and live in Göteborg. I did SFI myself and then went on to SAS, as you're supposed to. It felt completely wrong there: a lot of school, but little of the Swedish I actually needed in everyday life.

By day I design and build digital experiences: apps, websites and more. By night I build Beyond SFI, the thing I was missing myself.
