About Me
italki teacher since Dec 13, 2018Me as a Teacher
I have two University degrees and I have been teaching finnish and swedish both for beginners and business people. I have also worked as a translator. The most challenging mission was in Monaco, where very talented multilingual people wanted to learn swedish and finnish and learn it fast, because they did business with Scandinavian countries. My lessons & teaching style
I begin planning my lessons after I have talked with the customer, and I know her/his level and what is the goal of the person. I have, of course, books and planned lessons, which I have had before but I try to create an atmosphere where the student is not afraid to make misstakes and we have a relaxed and positive attitude, maybe even fun but always focused!My teaching material

The teacher was very kind and patient, always repeating when I needed. The lesson went by very quickly, it was interesting and I really enjoyed it.

Se oli tosi hyvää oppitunti ja minä olin hyvää aikaa hänen kanssa!! Hän puhuu suomea niin se oli helpompi ymmärtää asioita.
Kiitos paljon!

Heikki is very helpful and easy to talk to. He's not someone that you feel dumb making a mistake with. He's always patient and helps you formulate your sentences in a more natural or native way.
I would recommend anyone trying to learn Finnish to work with Heikki to practice speaking and listening

Great 1st conversational practice with Heikki. He challenged my Finnish, which is exactly what I wanted. Will be booking more lessons with Heikki to achieve my goals.
