I am a laid-back person who is interested in many topics like human behavior, meditation, economics, geopolitics, trees, martial arts, or artificial intelligence to mention a few of my interests. I have a masters degree in Economics.
Ich als Lehrkraft
As a teacher I am encouraging, and try to activate my students to use as much Finnish as possible. People usually tell me they can be themselves in my company. This no stress state helps them to express themselves better in Finnish as the brain has no reason to activate the sympathetic nervous system (fight/flight/freeze response) which would compromise higher brain functions. I have about 2000 hours of teaching experience, mostly online but also face to face.
Meine Stunden und mein Unterrichtsstil
I concentrate on speaking activation and encourage the student express herself/himself as much as possible in Finnish. My approach is to ask questions and adjust the level of communication to the student's proficiency level.
Jarkko is a fantastic teacher who is incredibly encouraging and patient. He makes the lessons engaging and motivates me to speak Finnish as much as I can. I’m excited for our next session!"

I highly recommend Jarkko as a Finnish teacher! He creates such a comfortable and supportive learning environment that makes a lesson enjoyable and productive. I really appreciate how he encourages using Finnish as much as possible during a
lesson – it's such a great way to immerse yourself in the language and build confidence in speaking. I'm already looking forward to our next lesson! Kiitos paljon, Jarkko!
