Finnish A1.1 is the first part of the A1 level. If you are a beginner or have little knowledge of Finnish, this is the right course for you. We start from scratch, build on basic knowledge, and solidify the foundational steps of Finnish, including: vowel harmony, personal pronouns, consonant alternation, the genitive, possessive, and partitive cases, and verb groups. The topics covered in the chapters include greetings, countries, languages, numbers, questions, time, and family.

In the courses of Institut Nòrdic we work on all the skills for a complete learning process: oral and written expression and comprehension, vocabulary and grammar. Together with continuous evaluation, the course is an uninterrupted learning process.

Online classes are held in real time, with interaction with the teacher and other classmates, and you can participate from anywhere in the world. The environment includes all the essential elements for learning.
