Pronunciation

Speech is an essential part of our daily lives, playing a significant role in various conversational situations both at work and in our free time. We effortlessly communicate in our native language, often without a second thought. However, when it comes to speaking a foreign language, you might struggle to express yourself as fluently as you'd prefer.

It's not necessary to achieve native-like pronunciation in a foreign language, but if you find that your pronunciation isn't meeting your needs or doesn't feel as fluent as you'd like, Ääntämisklinikka is here to help you!

Pronunciation is a motoric skill that requires extensive practice, much like riding a bike or playing a musical instrument. While I can't do the training for you, I can offer guidance and support to enhance your pronunciation. You'll receive valuable information on your pronunciation and tailored exercises to help you improve.

I invite you to visit Ääntämisklinikka, where your first consultation is free of charge.

For companies

An increasing number of individuals in company personnel in Finland do not speak Finnish as their native language. Even if the company's working language is English, a basic knowledge of Finnish helps them in everyday life and facilitates their integration into the Finnish work environment.

Finnish language education is not only a significant but also a highly valued employee benefit!

As a Finnish teacher specializing in oral language skills and pronunciation, I offer professional, reliable, and encouraging Finnish language teaching for your company's staff.

The duration and content of the courses are tailored to your company's specific needs. Lessons can be organized according to your preferences, either remotely or at your company's premises in Espoo and Helsinki area.

I'd be happy to provide more details about the various learning possibilities and to discuss how my services can benefit your company!
