To teach a class or training.
Kultureller Hintergrund
The concept of 'Studiecirkel' (study circle) is huge. Anyone can start one and 'hålla i' the meetings. Similar to Sweden, 'Arbis' (Arbetarinstitutet) is a place where many people 'håller kurser' in various crafts. Flat hierarchy means even a junior employee might 'hålla en kurs' for senior management if they have a specific skill. Sweden is highly digitized; 'hålla en kurs' often implies it's happening on Teams or Zoom.
Use 'hålla i'
If you want to sound more like a native speaker in casual conversation, add the 'i'. 'Jag håller i en kurs.'
Student vs Teacher
Always remember: Teacher = Hålla, Student = Gå.
