“Why not starting your Finnish studies this spring? The intensive beginners’ course will allow you to get started with your journey of discovery into the Finnish language. The classes take three hours at the time but the time does really fly when you’re studying Finnish” says Sanna Joutsijoki, the teacher of the course.
