Minä olen opiskellut suomea jo jotain aikaa, mutta käyttämättä oleva kieli taantuu nopeasti. Kimmon kanssa voin ylläpitää ja jopa parantaa taitotasoani. Olen erittäin kiitollinen hänelle avusta ja lukuisista korjauksista. Suosittelen.

Ich habe lange nach einer Lehrkraft gesucht, mit der ich richtig gut Finnisch lernen kann. Ich habe diese mit Kimmo gefunden. Es ist natürlich hilfreich, dass Kimmo gut Deutsch spricht, auch wenn normalerweise Englisch als Brückensprache ebenso funktioniert. Erklärungen und Vergleiche in der Muttersprache zu erhalten, ist wirklich enorm hilfreich.
Kimmo macht sich sehr viel Mühe und bereitet jede Unterrichtsstunde sorgfältig vor. Mein Wunsch war es, Artikel aus finnischen Nachrichten zu lesen, zu übersetzen und dazu eigene Kommentare zu schreiben. Diese Vorgehensweise bringt mich wirklich voran.
Außerdem beginnen wir jede Unterrichtsstunde mit etwas Konversation. Die Atmosphäre ist immer sehr entspannt und Kimmo erklärt in einfachen Worten, wie man etwas richtig oder noch besser sagen könnte.
Ich empfehle Kimmo allen Personen, die die finnische Sprache strukturiert und zielorientiert erlernen wollen.
