Helsinki ratings & opinions
How our students rated their experience in Helsinki
Most recent student reviews of language schools in Helsinki
It wasn't a school. I lived with the teacher and we had lessons in her home. She was extremely organized, cordial, good-humored, and delightful to be around. I enjoyed her and very much appreciated her ability to communicate with me both as peer and as a teacher of an elementary student.
This experience exceeded my expectations. I think it's a risk to take an unknown student into your home for a week, and Arja was wonderful on every count: as a teacher, as a human being, as a hostess. It was a perfect match; we have a lot of similar interests and tastes, which made it a pleasure to live in her home for a week and to receive a good foundation for carrying my study of Finnish forward.
