Moi! I'm Satu and I'm a language teacher from Finland, but now live in a small village in Switzerland. I have a lot of experience with self-studying in addition to having studied several languages in school and in university, so I know it's not easy to learn a new language. I do also have a plethora of other interests, including all kinds of games, cooking, and traveling, so I'm sure we have something in common! I love learning new things from my students as well :) NOTE: Italki has raised its single lesson commission price by 6%, so I have to adjust accordingly. If you are a 'continuing student' (you started taking lesson before Jan 22), you can book the 'continuing students' lessons.

I strongly recommend lessons for geeks with Satu! The topics are diverse and enjoyable and I love finding out more about Finnish quirks. Studying with Satu keeps me motivated and the lessons always leave me in a good mood.

I just can't get tired of conversational classes focused on some specific topics. Satu sends some tips and materials in advance, but you get so much practical every-day vocabulary after each lesson in addition to that! It's a very effective way to discover which words and expressions you lack in real communication.

I cannot recommend the nörteille lessons enough! Satu is a great teacher, who always checks in with her students current needs and modifies her lessons accordingly. She takes notes and shares lots of helpful resources. Right now, we are in the middle of a D&D campaign and although I didn't have any previous experience in playing, she is making it work. Satu is very creative, well prepared and puts a lot of love into her work. She makes studying a lot of fun and I always look forward to our next lesson!

Satu is a highly skilled professional teacher with a creative mind and a wealth of personal experience with other languages and cultures. She comes to every lesson prepared with a new topic to keep the conversation flowing. Endlessly calm and patient, with a twist: beneath that tranquil surface lurks a wellspring of bubbling imagination and intellectual excitement.

I am making progress. The lesson consolidated this for me in a way that left me feeling very pleased. Satu's patience and structured learning is working for me!

Satu has many different styles of teaching; today we did some work on grammar. This was both challenging and rewarding. I came away feeling I had learned something, been stretched, and with a sense of excitement about the progress. These lessons are fun, but with a serious element to them as well.
