Does any of this sound familiar to you?
You're learning Finnish and...

  • you feel like you turn into a different person when you speak Finnish...
  • you would like your Finnish to be more expressive...
  • you're confused by the differences between spoken and standard Finnish...
  • you recognize Finnish words but don't always understand the deeper meaning...
  • you wish you had a Finnish friend to help you navigate the world of Finnish...
  • you've had enough of Google translate confusing you!

There's plenty of Finnish content out there to practise with, right?

But do you understand it? Are you making the most of all the collocations, idioms and nuances?

Don’t you sometimes wish you had a native Finnish friend walking around with you, pointing out interesting Finnish words, getting you to practise them yourself, interpreting Finnish conversations and helping you make sense out of the real language?

It would be a game-changer for your Finnish because...

…you could start reading Finnish books and newspapers
… watch Finnish TV and movies…

And once you’re regularly consuming Finnish content, your language skills will skyrocket. You will be able to

  • understand what your friends and family are saying in Finnish (and join in on the conversation before the moment passes!)
  • apply for that job that requires Finnish skills
  • apply for Finnish citizenship
  • pass your YKI test
  • study for a qualification in the Finnish language

What people say about the Finking Cap Club courses:

Emmi covers a lot of what you see on signs around town - both advertisements and permanent signage. I haven’t found any other resource that does this - being able to read the messages on the tram stops, the grocery, and on pinned up notices really helps you stay connected to the world you are living in and helps reinforce the vocabulary you have learned. Although Finns are very generous about speaking English, when you can read the signs without Google Translate you can learn a lot about events and information you might have otherwise missed!

I just registered, this is so far the best resource I have for learning Finnish. I love the idea of interactive learning, the step by step breakdown of puhekieli in a realistic context is invaluable. Emmi is such a magical teacher. This is awesome!

I was already studying Finnish and living in Finland when I found the Case by Case Finnish course. For me, as a Portuguese speaking person, understanding the cases in Finnish was the hardest thing. Studying Finnish with a native teacher that can explain the intricate parts of the language in great English was decisive for me, I gained the confidence I needed and started to understand how the language works, I was thinking for myself and not just repeating rules from a book. The materials are great and easy to understand, Emmi is very patient and has great teaching skills (and also a huge sense of humour!)! This course is something that I will keep revising for many years until I can really master the Finnish language.
Larissa KämäräinenStudent
I find it really useful to have both an overarching larger-scale course (like the Case by Case module) as well as the Quick Wins, as it feels like you’re gaining both a deeper understanding of the language as a whole as well as words and phrases that are very easy to work into everyday conversation. It’s really exciting to recognize a concept I learned in Case by Case in the Quick Wins, and they work very well together!

FAQ

I have completed my pedagogical training (subject teacher, 60 credits, one full academic year) at the University of Helsinki. Before teaching Finnish, I got a TEFL certificate and taught English in summer schools and online. I’m an English major, but I fell in love with Finnish and chose it as my minor subject. I started teaching Finnish as soon as I could, and I’ve been teaching for several years now. In addition to the groups I’ve taught, I’ve given hundreds of one-to-one classes. You’re in good hands!

Yes, you either pay month by month or yearly, and you can cancel at the end of each payment period.

You’ll keep the same price you signed up for if you stay on. Right now, it’s early days of the Finking Cap Club, and the price is the lowest it will ever be. So get in now!

I sure do!
