italki leerkracht sinds 8 Jul 2020
Hi I'm Jenni, a native Finnish speaker with a passion to support people on their journey of learning Finnish and integrating into Finnish society. Over the last four years of Finnish tutoring I've gotten very used to meeting up with people on a weekly basis and accompanying them through their ups and downs. I know the struggles they’re facing personally, as I have gone through the process of becoming a resident and learning the language in a new country twice myself. I speak Spanish fluently, and I hold a Bachelor’s degree from Ireland.
Ik als leerkracht
I never learned a language in school, I learned on my feet. As a teacher I emphasise practicality and straightforwardness. As soon as you know three words, I’ll ask you to put them into a sentence. With me you won’t be ‘taught’ per se, you will be invited to learn by doing, to try things out, and to accumulate competence upon what you already know. My students quickly learn to ask me ‘can I say…? (voinks mä sanoa…?)’ followed by something they have just formulated. Before long, they start to create perfectly applicable and natural sounding Finnish sentences (which can often be short and make absolutely no sense when translated to English) by applying Finnish the same way Finns do.
Mijn lessen en manier van lesgeven
It makes no difference to me if you know grammar, as long as you know how to apply it correctly in practice. I want you to be able to express yourself, and to understand what’s happening around you as you begin to navigate your life in Finnish. My students often come to me with their real life problems, such as reading the road signs, passing the Yki-test, communicating effectively at work or with their partner, buying salmon, asking for help/refusing to do something politely and so on. These problems and the application of language to confront them will serve as the foundation of our lessons together, just as they have for me personally and to countless other students of mine before you.

Before the classes with Jenni, I was afraid to speak Finnish. But Jenni’s smile and her positive attitude helped me not to be afraid and to practice Finnish. Every lesson she makes very useful notes that help me a lot. We have been studying together for almost a year, and I am happy that I met her. I can strongly recommend Jenni as a great teacher. Kiitos paljon Jenni!

Jenni continues to encourage me throughout each lesson. She has helped me build on my existing knowledge so I can create sentences and ask questions. Not only is she helping increase my understanding of Finnish, but she is increasing my confidence to use it as well. Kiitos paljon Jenni!

Erinomainen opettaja, olen tyytyväinen oppituntiin.
Jenny auttoi minua rakentamaan lauseita oikein, korjasi virheeni, inspiroi minua puhumaan.

Thank you so much, you are a fantastic teacher! よくわからない文法や間違えやすい文章を伝えると、とても丁寧に教えてくれるので、毎回「あ!そうか!!」とすごく納得できます。おかげでミスする回数もどんどん減っているので、本当に毎回感謝です。

I've really enjoyed working with Jenni! She is friendly but also provides constructive criticism where needed. I especially appreciate that she worked with me to find a learning plan that would be effective for me individually.
