Improve your English with fun and effective lessons!
Hi, my name is Pinja and I was born and raised in Finland. At the university, I studied Social Science. I have worked in the field with children and families since 2009. When working with refugees and immigrants, I got interested in teaching languages. In 2015 I started teaching Finnish in a refugee center. Later I got my certificate in teaching. I have experience teaching Finnish and English in a traditional classroom setting and giving private lessons online and offline.
I have a degree in Social Science and a I’m a certified teacher. I have taught English and Finnish since 2015. I started by teaching beginner Finnish to immigrants in Helsinki. Later I got my certificate in teaching and since then I have taught Finnish and English online and offline. I have worked as an English teacher in the Philippines, in Nicaragua and in Mexico teaching children and adults. I enjoy giving private lessons, because I personalize the lessons for the student’s goals and interests.
As a teacher, I believe that I can help the students to grow as learners and to reach their learning goals. I am enthusiastic about education and always strive to do the best for my students. I have experience in planning authentic and interesting lessons and material.
I would like to support you to meet your individual learning goals; whether you aim to learn grammar or vocabulary for a certain topic or gain more confidence in conversation etc. The aim of the first lesson is to evaluate your level and to set up learning goals. We will talk about the different ways of learning (visual, auditory, reading/writing and kinesthetic) and make a plan according to your learning style and preferences. I believe that using different engaging activities keep students interested, motivated and support their learning. During the lesson we can use a variety of different materials, books, work sheets, articles, listening exercises, conversation exercises, games, music and videos. I have also made a lot of authentic material, such as grammar points, exercises and texts, to support your learning.

Pinja is an excellent teacher, dedicated to make sure that her student has a comfortable and effective learning experience. I highly recommend!
She was good.
Pinja is really easy to talk to and she is very encouraging. She provides comprehensive study materials for Finnish. Her teaching method is such that she likes to teach a particular content and give plenty of examples and practices so that I can grasp that content well. I would definitely recommend Pinja to any potential student out there! Kiitos Pinja!
