About the store
Experience
I am a Finnish Language School teacher in Lausanne, Switzerland. I teach part-time from toddlers to 11-year-olds and create TpT materials in my free time.
Teaching style
Our Finnish classes take place late in the afternoon and the kids are often tired. I love to use games, projects and anything creative to spark their interest. This spring we did a 3-minute funny news video which became a huge hit for the kids. I loved the project, learned a lot and will certainly continue with this method! It's just too much fun!
My own education history
I hold a Master of Arts (Education) from the University of Helsinki. Ask me about the Finnish school system and I'll be happy to tell you everything I know!
Additional biographical information
I am a Writing Student and an expat mom raising multilingual kids in ever-changing countries.
