FAQ about schools in Finland
- Do you have partner schools in Finland?“We currently do not have any partner schools in Finland, but we can offer you immersion courses with a teacher. This type of programme is one of the best options for making rapid progress in a short period of time. You will be staying with the teacher and his family, so you can practice the language all day, even around the table as all meals are included. You choose the number of lessons per week and the teacher gives you private lessons. This allows you to focus on your areas of interest and your weaknesses.”Madly Simba, Language Travel Consultant from LanguageCourse.Net - Mar 22, 2023I want to apply for English language courses in Finland...
“The language programme offered in Finland is mainly for Finnish language courses, not English. It is possible though to find an English teacher in Finland for immersion courses but it is less common.
For learning English, we recommend destinations such as England, Ireland, Scotland, Malta, etc. ”Madly, FR Consultant from LanguageCourse.net - Mar 16, 2022
