Do you, or does your company, have employees who would benefit from Finnish lessons—whether starting from the basics or fine‑tuning already fairly fluent Finnish?
“I strongly support in‑person teaching. There are many fun and useful digital Finnish exercises online, but face‑to‑face instruction is by far the best way to understand and to be understood,” says Jaana Ahti‑Virtanen, MA, who works as a Finnish‑language instructor.
“I also want to keep the bar high enough. Finnish is a very interesting language and not at all too difficult to learn. Teaching requires clarity and an understanding of the bigger picture.”
“You are absolutely the best Finnish‑as‑a‑second‑language teacher. You take initiative and plan the lessons beautifully. Working with you has been easy. Students like you; you seem warm‑hearted and genuinely focused on what is best for them.”
