Hello, my name is Kristiina and I'm from Finland. As a lover of languages and different cultures, I'm here to help people from various backgrounds improve their Finnish. I'm currently studying to become a Finnish as a foreign language teacher. Having studied multiple languages over the years (German, English, Swedish, Latin, Mandarin Chinese, and Japanese), I can definitely empathise with the joys and sorrows of learning a new language. Therefore, my goal is to create an environment where people are not afraid to make mistakes and have fun. As a Community Tutor, I am approachable and easy to talk to. I like lessons where you learn a lot while also having fun. I'm currently studying to become a Finnish as a foreign language teacher. We will practice Finnish in a relaxed environment. Based on your wishes and skill level, we will look at Finnish texts and any relevant grammatical features, go through them together, and then practice them orally. I will support you by leading the conversation. We can also do role-play practice on real-life situations. We can conduct the class entirely in Finnish, or in English and Finnish, depending on your skill level. You are also free to bring your own material in case you have any questions about Finnish that you need help with. Please note that I'm NOT a good fit for people looking to learn highly specialised vocabulary (e.g. healthcare sector).

The first lesson went well! It was easy to talk with the teacher. She prepared a list of discussion questions and also wrote down some phrases and words I had problems with.

Kristiina is an excellent teacher, I highly recommend her. She was well prepared for my first lesson and the material was the perfect starting place for me to begin. I felt very comfortable during the lesson and appreciated the exercises that involved reading, listening, and speaking. I am looking forward to my next lesson with Kristiina.
