Moi kaikki! Hello everyone! :)
My name is Kat and I'm a bilingual Finn living in Finland. I speak English and Finnish fluently.
If you want to practice spoken Finnish then you are in the right place!
No matter what your level is right now, I want to help you feel more comfortable speaking Finnish out loud! Let's practice together!
You might have seen me on YouTube on my channel called "KatChats Finnish" where I make Finnish language learning videos! https://www.youtube.com/katchats
Me as a Teacher
🗣️ Conversational Focus: Whether you're a beginner wanting to practice simple sentences or a seasoned learner let's tailor your lessons to your specific goals, interests, and learning pace. I want to encourage you to speak Finnish so let's have conversations, practice pronunciation, and build your confidence in using the language (especially puhekieli!) 😊
🌟 Encouraging and Supportive: Learning Finnish can be challenging, but I'm here to provide a supportive and encouraging environment.
🤗 Easy to Talk To: I want you to feel comfortable expressing yourself, asking questions, and making mistakes. I will speak clearly and slowly and I'm super patient so don't worry too much :)
My lessons & teaching style
I offer CONVERSATIONAL classes where we can casually chat together in Finnish! If you are a beginner, no worries - let's practice talking about some basic phrases first! :)
**When you book your 1st lesson, please LEAVE me a message explaining what you would like to talk about during the class :)
**You can only cancel/reschedule on italki & not with me (following the 24 hrs rule!)

As I begin to understand more and more of Finnish, these lessons become more interesting. Kat always has an interesting story or anecdote to share about everything!

I recently started my learning journey with Kat. We're currently still feeling each other out regarding my language level and abilities. Kat is very flexible and considerate of my suggestions and requests. She's also very friendly and a really nice conversationalist. So far things are looking very promising and I feel very comfortable in the class.

Today I had a great lesson with Kat. Communication with her is easy and she adapts the lessons to your individual needs. Kiitos!
