About Me
italki teacher since Sep 7, 2018InterestsFilms & TV SeriesTravelArt
I can discuss several topics, according to my students' wishes and expectations. I have a bachelor's degree in English literature and linguistics and find language teaching and learning fascinating. I love traveling and I have lived in Spain since 2016 where I have taught English and Finnish. I have practical experience in the kind of vocabulary and skills you need when traveling and living abroad and I can also teach at a beginner level in Spanish.Me as a Teacher
I love teaching and helping people. I consider that languages enable cultural interaction and broaden one's horizons. I have experience in teaching English both to children and adults in Spain. Finnish I've taught online since 2018. I personalize my lessons according to my students and use teaching strategies that suit them best.My lessons & teaching style
I have no prerequisites for my lessons; I welcome both beginners and more advanced learners who are eager to learn Finnish. My lessons are based on conversation (that may be based on a specific theme agreed on beforehand), reading and translating a target language text together or analyzing it, and answering my student's questions. I am also open to suggestions my students may have regarding language learning.
The book series I have used the most is Suomen mestari (1, 2, 3 and 4) but I have also used Oma Suomi 1, Harjoitus tekee mestarin (4 different books), Suomen kielen tikapuut, Ykäänkö vai ykiinkö, Kielo, etc. Especially with beginners, I usually prefer to use a book.My teaching material

Tunti oli erittäin mielenkiintoinen ja haastava. Opin paljon uusia sanoja ja keskustelimme erilaisista asioista. Kiitos Heidi taas! :)

I've had many different Finnish teachers over the years, and Heidi is definitely the best. She's very good at explaining things so that even complicated Finnish grammar sounds simple
