Familia's popular Finnish language courses proceed at an unhurried pace under the guidance of professional teachers. In additional to getting practical experience using the language, the courses also provide information about Finnish society. We also organise Finnish language discussion groups facilitated by volunteers. In the discussion groups participants can practice the basics of the language or maintain and develop already acquired language skills with others in a similar situation. Ask about availability by email.
