Student Voices
"Learning Finnish with ONNI has been an incredible experience! With ONNI, I’m gaining the confidence to speak, read, and understand Finnish at a beginner level, which is so rewarding! One of the highlights is definitely Virpi, our teacher. Her deep pride in the Finnish language shines through, and her unique enthusiasm brings each lesson to life. The structure of ONNI is also fantastic – it’s clear, well-organized, and easy to follow even for self-learners."

"I really enjoy learning Finnish with ONNI because it makes the learning process engaging and approachable. The lessons are well-structured, and I appreciate how they build up my understanding step by step. What’s special about ONNI is how it combines language learning with Finnish culture, giving me more context and making the language feel more alive. The exercises are practical, and I feel like I’m learning skills and advices I can use right away in real life."
