FAQ
WHO IS THIS COURSE FOR?
This course is for learners who have already completed a Finnish B1-level course (like ONNI B1) and are preparing to take the YKI keskitaso (intermediate) test.
DO I NEED TO HAVE COMPLETED ONNI B1 TO JOIN?
No, you don’t need to have taken ONNI B1 specifically — but you should have reached B1 level in Finnish to benefit from this course.
DOES THE COURSE COVER ALL FOUR SKILLS TESTED IN THE YKI EXAM?
Yes! You’ll practice reading, writing, listening, and speaking, using YKI-style tasks and expert strategies.
ARE THERE LIVE SESSIONS?
Yes, there are weekly live Zoom sessions with Virpi. You’ll get guided practice, direct feedback, and time to ask questions.
WHAT IF I CAN’T JOIN THE LIVE SESSIONS?
No worries – all sessions are recorded and available inside the course platform, so you can watch them when it suits you.
WILL I GET FEEDBACK ON MY WRITING OR SPEAKING?
Yes. You’ll submit short writing and/or speaking tasks and receive personal feedback from Virpi.
HOW IS THIS DIFFERENT FROM A REGULAR B1 COURSE?
Fit for YKI doesn’t teach new grammar or vocabulary. It focuses on exam techniques, task types, and realistic YKI practice so you’re fully prepared.
WILL THIS GUARANTEE I PASS THE YKI EXAM?
No course can promise a pass – but Fit for YKI gives you everything you need to prepare effectively, with structure, expert guidance, and real exam practice.
