About Me
italki teacher since Oct 27, 2021Me as a Teacher
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.My lessons & teaching style
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!My teaching material

That was one of the best lessons I've ever had! I think I talked for almost the whole lesson because Cristian had sent me an article that exactly matched my interests. Once I started talking and explaining, I just couldn't stop - not even the special vocabulary needed could discourage me.

Talking with Cristian means chatting with a friend. His interest in our conversation is genuine and he never gives me the impression that my Finnish isn't good enough, though I still have a long way to got and we often end up in topics I've never spoken in Finnish before.

Another really wonderful lesson. Cristian is so easy to talk to that the time passes far too quickly. He is always attentive and makes every lesson feel like a nice conversation between friends. I enjoyed every second!

What a wonderful lesson again! Today it seemed so easy to talk fairly fluently. I was talking the whole lesson through without great hesitation. Thanks to Cristian, who listened patiently and curiously to my passionate report of my recent adventures and asked good questions. Kiitos paljon! Olen onnellinen nyt!
