Hi there! Iâm Katri, a Finnish language tutor. Iâve been teaching learners from all over the world on italki since 2020. I focus on helping adult learners at beginner and conversational levels build confidence and fluency in spoken Finnish. My goal is to make Finnish more accessible, relaxed, and fun for everyone!
Moikka! Olen Katri, suomen kielen tuutori. Olen opettanut italkissa vuodesta 2020 ja autan erityisesti aikuisia alkeis- ja keskustelutasolla kehittÀmÀÀn itsevarmuutta ja sujuvuutta suomen puhumisessa ja ymmÀrtÀmisessÀ. Tavoitteenani on tehdÀ suomen oppimisesta helpompaa ja hauskempaa kaikille!
Me as a Teacher
My lessons are relaxed, practical, and tailored to YOUR goals, whether you're preparing for everyday situations or YKI test. Let's work together to make Finnish amazing!
Tuntini ovat kÀytÀnnöllisiÀ ja aina SINUN tavoitteidesi mukaan suunniteltuja, olitpa sitten valmistautumassa arjen tilanteisiin tai YKI-kokeeseen. TehdÀÀn suomen oppimisesta yhdessÀ hauskaa!
My lessons & teaching style
My lessons are relaxed, supportive, and goal-oriented. I focus on practical language use, especially speaking and listening skills, to help you feel more confident in real-life situations. Whether you're a beginner or already conversational, I adapt the content to your needs and learning style. I use everyday vocabulary, simple explanations, and a lot of repetition to make learning easier and more natural.
Minun oppitunnit ovat rennot, kannustavat ja tukevat sinun tavoitteitasi. Keskityn erityisesti kÀytÀnnön kieleen sekÀ puhe- ja kuuntelutaitojen kehittÀmiseen, jotta tunnet olosi varmemmaksi elÀmÀn tilanteissa.

Another great lesson! I showed up to the lesson feeling rusty while speaking, but Katri met me where I was and she got me speaking a lot more than I expected, which is helping me stay consistent even when I am not having my best days.

Really enjoyed my first class with Katri. She came prepared, showed patience and adopted a great pace for a complete beginner like me. Looking forward to the next class.

I am very thankful for Katri. I look forward to my weekly lessons. Iâve improved vastly my comprehension and reading skills and my shyness about speaking is improving with each class. She creates a very encouraging and supportive environment while challenging me too.
