How do I register?

Click here or on the "enroll here" buttons anywhere on this page. The link will take you to a checkout page (powered by Stripe) where you can purchase the course and start studying immediately. Stripe accepts international credit and debit cards.

If you'd prefer to use Finnish online banking, you can also purchase the course in my other online store, powered by Holvi. After the purchase, you'll receive instructions on how to access the course material.  

If you'd prefer an invoice, email me at mari@askafinnishteacher.com and we'll set up your course access together.

How do I know if I'm at the right level?

This course is suitable for a wide range of levels from A1 (basics) to C1 (proficient).

A1 means knowing some basics: being able to introduce yourself, having some basic vocabulary and being able to have very simple interactions in Finnish: saying hello, buying a coffee and so forth.  

What if I miss the Zoom meetings?

We recommend that you only sign up if the Zoom meetings work for your schedule.

Unfortunately, the Zoom meetings will not be recorded. This is because we want to create an environment where it is safe to practice without being afraid of making mistakes - imagine learning a new language while being recorded!  

However, you can still follow the course material week by week, get access to Tuutsä mukaan and all other course materials and learn a lot during the course.  

If you need to be absent sometimes, no worries, we will help you catch up if needed!

We're more than happy to answer any questions you might have!
