You, your significant other, and your children still have time to register for the Finnish school and improve/learn Finnish. Now matter what the skill level – there is a class for you, your significant other or your children/grandchildren. Classes are provided from toddlers to adults.

Toddlers learn through play and practice important concepts such as counting, colors, and other basics in Finnish. Through play, this class is fun, interactive and educational.

Pre-teens and teens have their own classes where grammar, vocabulary and other Finnish skills are learned and improved. This is a great way to also meet new friends that have a similar background. Make sure your child can communicate with relatives in Finland with ease – enroll them in the Finnish school.

Are you married to a Finn or just want to learn Finnish? The adult beginners’ class is for you. In the beginners class you will through vocabulary, grammar and the basics of Finnish language.

For those with advanced skills the school has an adult conversation class where advanced vocabulary and discussion about current topics is held. If your Finnish is rusty, or you already know the basics, join this fun and interactive class.

Is your Finnish fluent – you can volunteer at the Finnish school. Substitute teaching, help preparing for special events and other assistance is always welcome.

For those residing in Fort Collins or Colorado Springs, we can help put you in touch with others who attend the school so that you can discuss carpooling options.
