À propos de moi
Professeur italki depuis le 30 May 2018
Sujets d'intérêtLectureScienceVoyages
Hey there!
I am a physicist with a passion for languages, cultures and linguistics. My native language is Finnish, but I also speak English and Japanese, and have recently begun studying Arabic. I have lived in Finland, the UK, and Japan. In addition to learning new languages, my hobbies include fantasy books & films, playing the piano, travelling and cycling. I am currently interested in teaching English, Finnish and Japanese.
Moi en tant que professeur
Having climbed the “mountain of fluency” in two foreign languages, I know exactly how hard and frustrating the journey can be, but I also know how rewarding and satisfying finally making it to the top is. To me, wrapping your head around a completely new way of thinking that often comes with achieving fluency in a language is one of the best feelings I know, and I want to share it with you.
As someone with a strong background in science, my specialty is scientific communication and technical writing. I also think my experience in grappling with abstract scientific concepts has taught me to explain grammatical concepts and semantic nuances in a concise and easily understandable way.
Mes leçons et ma méthode d'enseignement
Whether it be Finnish, English or Japanese you are interested to learn, I would love to discuss any topic you find fascinating or challenging, and give you personalised tips to improve your language skills. I am happy to conduct the lessons in any of the three languages, eg. a Finnish lesson in English, a Japanese lesson in Finnish, etc. I can help you with not only grammar and speaking/listening, but also composition and reading comprehension. Furthermore, I have experience in writing and proofreading CVs, cover letters and essays, preparing for interviews and other business-related language usage.
I hope you will join me for a lesson soon!

Great first lesson! Ville was precise and engaging, and he's clearly put a *lot* of thought into how to teach Finnish (and in general, how to learn languages). I also really enjoyed his pronunciation tips: he knew exactly what I was doing wrong and had great suggestions for how to fix things. Very fun lesson and I'm excited to keep learning with him
