Struggling to speak Finnish despite having taken courses? I've been there. Let me show you how to make speaking the center of your Finnish strategy - and start using what you already know today.

In this free 11-minute training, you'll discover:

  • 🚫The specific blocks holding you back from speaking (they're not what you think)
  • 💡A different approach to learning Finnish that actually feels good
  • 👣Small steps you can take now (no more waiting until you 'know more')


This training is NOT another Finnish grammar lesson.

It's an introduction to my approach for learners who already know some Finnish but want to actually speak more.

I'll show you the two key shifts that make speaking central to your learning - and help you start using your Finnish in real situations today.

Hi, I'm Irina 👋

—a multibelonger to Romania, Canada, and Finland, without ONE language or culture to call my own. I have several.

After trying to learn Finnish as an adult through trial, error, and plenty of frustration, I discovered that speaking needs to come first, not 'when I'm good enough.' I've guided hundreds of internationals through this shift — and in the City of Helsinki pilot of my program, 96% of participants reported increased speaking confidence.

“As a fellow learner of Finnish, Irina brings a refreshing and very practical perspective...”
