Moi kaikki! Hello everyone! :)
My name is Kat and I'm a bilingual Finn living in Finland. I speak English and Finnish fluently.
If you want to practice spoken Finnish then you are in the right place!
No matter what your level is right now, I want to help you feel more comfortable speaking Finnish out loud! Let's practice together!
You might have seen me on YouTube on my channel called "KatChats Finnish" where I make Finnish language learning videos! https://www.youtube.com/katchats
Me as a Teacher
🗣️ Conversational Focus: Whether you're a beginner wanting to practice simple sentences or a seasoned learner let's tailor your lessons to your specific goals, interests, and learning pace. I want to encourage you to speak Finnish so let's have conversations, practice pronunciation, and build your confidence in using the language (especially puhekieli!) 😊
🌟 Encouraging and Supportive: Learning Finnish can be challenging, but I'm here to provide a supportive and encouraging environment.
🤗 Easy to Talk To: I want you to feel comfortable expressing yourself, asking questions, and making mistakes. I will speak clearly and slowly and I'm super patient so don't worry too much :)
My lessons & teaching style
I offer CONVERSATIONAL classes where we can casually chat together in Finnish! If you are a beginner, no worries - let's practice talking about some basic phrases first! :)
**When you book your 1st lesson, please LEAVE me a message explaining what you would like to talk about during the class :)
**You can only cancel/reschedule on italki & not with me (following the 24 hrs rule!)

We talked a bit about travelling this time around, and as ever, it was a fun lesson with Kat!

Kat is a good teacher! She is patient and helpful. It's the first time I have spoken so much Finnish without feeling shy about it.

My Finnish level is improving, and Kat is now able to talk even more in Finnish, so the lessons get more useful and interesting every time!
