Hi there, my name is Cristian. I am from Argentina and I have been teaching Finnish for over 3 years. Maybe you're thinking: “Why is this guy teaching Finnish if he's not a native speaker?” Well, there’s a back story. My mother is from Finland, but she never spoke Finnish to me growing up (just Spanish). When I was 25 I moved to Finland with almost no knowledge of their ways and language, apart from moi (hello) and sauna (yes, sauna is originally a Finnish word) and after a lot of studying, watching movies, listening to music, making friends and reading every Moomin book I could get my hands on, I’m happy to say that I learned to speak Finnish fluently.
Ich als Lehrkraft
I have to be honest, studying a language like this one is not easy, but it’s also not impossible. It demands consistency and patience.I learned Finnish as an adult and I think that’s one of my strengths as a teacher, because it gave me a clear understanding of the (learning) process and the structure of the language and also the ability to “translate” difficult concepts and explain things, like the partitive case, that don’t exist in other languages.
Meine Stunden und mein Unterrichtsstil
A typical class will consist of grammar, pronunciation, talking, listening exercises and homework (this we can adapt to your needs and time). If you are interested, we can also discuss Finnish culture. We’ll be using what many consider to be the bible of Finnish learning: the book Suomen mestari 1-4 and also content from other sources, such as Yle (Finnish Public Network).
I would love to help you walk this path and hopefully also transmit a little bit of the passion that I feel for this language. If you are interested in learning Finnish from a beginner or intermediate starting point and learn about Finnish culture, book a trial lesson and let’s get started! Nähdään!

Puhuimme Kanadan suomalaisesta yhteisöstä tänään. Olen onnellinen asua täällä suomenkielisenä opiskelijana

Puhun suomea joka päivä Cristianin kanssa ja oppitunnit auttavat minua paljon. Suomen kielen oppiminen ei ole helppoa, mutta meillä on aina hauskaa tunneillamme ja hän inspiroi minua oppimaan perheeni kieltä

Tuve una clase de prueba y me encantó.
Soy una persona que le gusta aprender con estructura, además de que fines es una lengua muy diferente, me gusta el orden y me he sentido muy cómoda con Cristian por el método que tiene para enseñar.
Lo súper recomiendo. ¡Que ganas de tener ya la segunda clase!

Great first practice lesson, Cristian was able to assess very quickly the goals and how we could move forward for the following classes. I really enjoyed this introduction to Finnish.
