Hyvää päivää! Moving to Finland? Need to prepare for a language test? Want to communicate at work in Finnish? Whatever your reason to study Finnish, I will help you reach your goal. My name is Jenni, a certified language teacher since 2014 from when I started teaching English. I have been teaching Finnish since 2019 for students of all levels and different language needs. The lessons I teach are always customized for individual levels and needs; so whether you want to learn more about grammar or want to focus on conversational skills, or perhaps cultural aspects or a mixture of everything, we together will make a plan how to reach that goal. I will customize each of our lessons so you can get the most out of them and will see progress immediately. Whether you have studied Finnish before or not, regardless of your level, I promise to help you achieve your goal. Happy to answer any questions you might have. Looking forward to hearing from you! Nähdään, Jenni

Currently a doctoral student in international development studies, I give private language lessons to children and adults in Geneva. My pedagogy is encouraging and fun, and I always adapt the approach according to the pupil and his needs. Professional translator English-Finnish and French-Finnish, I am bilingual French-Finnish and I also speak fluently English and Portuguese. I also have several years of experience as a dance teacher, ask if you are interested :) Diplomas: Master of Science in Economics and Business Administration (Finland) and Master in European Studies (Belgium).

I teach Finnish by having a conversation and by reading texts together. You can choose which areas you are interested in, and I'll find texts that might be interesting for you. I can also teach Finnish basics by going through simple words and expressions, and by using a text book. Grammar comes along, and I'll explain why certain word forms are used as they come up in the texts or in spoken language. I have a Ph.D in Political science from the University of Helsinki and have been teaching Finnish in various language tandems for years.

Private lessons for teaching Finnish or English. I am a native Finnish therefore I can teach Finnish from beginner to advanced. I have a business degree in English, so my English is advanced and I can teach that too. I would teach the language based on your needs and your level of it. We could together set up a plan for what is it you want to learn. Feel free to contact me and ask any questions. :)

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.

Hello, my name is Eemeli and I`m native Finnish speaker and I come from southeast of Finland. My passion is to help people to reach their goals and that`s why I like to teach languages as well. I`ve been teaching English and Finnish about 3 years to adults mostly online. Some people prefer more just talking and correcting and some like it more to start with vocabulary. Together we can choose what works best for you of course!

I will tailor the Finnish classes according to each student's needs. So, in that sense, there are many options! Among some things that my lessons usually entail: -Reading texts with key words vocabularies -Listening exercises with key words vocabularies -Grammar exercises -Discussion exercises of mixed topics as well as of the texts and listening exercises -Checking homework (if there have been any) I will create a Google Docs document for each student and all the lesson notes and materials can be found from there, so you can access your file anytime you want to review the things that we have studied during the lessons. This also helps with keeping the things organised. The bottom line is that the lessons will be tailored so that they can fit to each student's needs, and therefore correspond with the desired level and goals. The language of instruction can be English, Estonian or Spanish. But, of course, if you're looking for a mainly conversational approach or are a more advanced student, then we could even solely speak in Finnish as well! I have experience of tutoring for YKI and I'm happy to help with that as well, if you're looking for a tutor to practice for the test.

Finnish online lessons. I have taught several years Finnish online for adults. As a teacher I'm easygoing, social and I have a good sense of humour. My aim is to have a relaxed atmosphere in my lessons. For me it is important that my students get the courage to use the Finnish language. I usually use Zoom /Teams or Meet.

I do not have a formal graduate degree in teaching, but I place a high value on all forms of learning a language (listening, speaking, reading & writing) and I believe my prior experience as a tutor compensates for this lack. I have years of past teaching experience as a music teacher and a substitute teacher. I have taught individually, in big classes, and in kindergarten as well. In general, my method is quite dynamic, flexible, and goal-oriented. I am very flexible and listen to my students on their goals. I am prepared to research how to develop as a teacher and how to meet my students' goals best. I provide material to help my students improve independently between lessons (optional homework). In English, I use a specific coursebook series which is also designed for self-study, but I do implement some additional materials for learning such as Preply content, lesson PDFs, and audio files from external sources according to students' individual needs. In the Finnish language, I use multiple different textbooks and audio which provide learning and practice for the written word as well as the spoken language. I implement materials found online as well. There are varying ways to meet the goals of students, and thus the specifics of these methods should be applied individually.

I offer Finnish grammar, conversation and YKI-testi preparation classes. All my classes are custom-made for your level, needs and wants. I will provide all the materials needed in our lessons and will be happy to take I teach all levels, beginners from a book and more advanced speakers with just talking. However if you wish to learn from your own material or in a different way, I am open to everything. GRAMMAR LESSONS; .... and by real I mean: grammar, exercises, listening exercises, writing, talking, homework.. All that fun stuff in one package! ;) I will provide you all learning material, which we will follow to have good structure in our learning plan. The book will be our main base for learning but of course I will happily teach you whatever else it is that you want to learn as well. Even though we will be learning from the book, I will also be teaching you the spoken language. If you have your own material/way of learning that you would rather do, that works as well. CONVERSATION LESSONS; we will talk, talk and talk, so it's gonna be fun! If you're still in the beginner level but want conversation lessons, I will be happy to help. I will adjust the topic and my speaking speed to your level. YKI-TESTI PREPARATION; class will be focused on the speaking part of the test. If you want to practise writing as well I can assign you writing homework which we will check in the beginning of the next class. I will do my best teaching and explaining you whatever it is that you want/need to learn, but some grammatical explanations might be better to learn with a professional teacher.
