I love the part with the drawing. When I learned animals in Finnish, I bought stickers of animals. And beside each sticker I wrote the Finnish word in both singular and plurality. I only studied that group of words twice and they are still stuck into my mind. Also, animalsâ stickers are cute, which is a plus
That's perfect! Nice you found a method that works for you đ
Even though it sounds simple, I really like the âpreviewâ part. It prepares my mind to know whatâs coming so Iâm not too confused as soon as I get to that chapter/section đ€Ł
Yes! This is something I discovered later and I wish I had known about it when I was in uni!đ
I have to say Finnish is one of my favorite language along with Italian and French itâs such a beautiful language it would be interesting to learn. I just donât know where could I find your courses on Finnish language
I like the teaching part.
Very smart
Great video! Kiitos Varpu! One of the tools I use in my language learning is a flash card app such as AnkiApp or AnkiWeb. You can write the Finnish word and the equivalent in your own language and then test yourself. The app hides one âsideâ of the card and shows it when you want to check. Then you tell the app whether it was easy for you or more difficult, and depending on the result, the app will have you review the difficult ones more often. You can also add pictures and even sound files if you want to make things a bit more sophisticated. ;) For me, it has become a daily routine!
Ole hyvĂ€, Martin! This sounds like a great resource, thanks so much for sharing đ
Kiitos for the tip!
I have just discovered your videos, as I am now taking lessons to learn more about the Finnish Language. Your videos and short lessons are very helpful and engaging. One way I try to remember things is to put words to music, sometimes to sing. I used this method when teaching young children new concepts and it was helpful and repetitive, but fun. Thank you for sharing your instructionâŠ
Iâm studying suomee for 5 months now and taking notes and repetition works the best for me. I also found out that teaching a classmate could be also helpful because I tend to explain it the way I understood a certain topic or just a simple vocabulary... that then we remember it together. Kiitos paljon!
That's great, thanks so much for sharing! Keep up the good work đ
I can affirm from many years of experience teaching adult learners that the tip "teach others" is extremely effective. Not only do you learn what you need to, but in order to teach you need to know the material extremely well, and the very act of teaching someone else reinforces what you have learned. To help students prepare for tests, I suggested to them that they teach the material to someone who doesn't know it, always with very good results. :)
Thanks so much for sharing, I totally agree! đ

As an English speaker, the most useful tool for me with Finnish is creating mnemonic devices by breaking down the syllables and trying to associate the sounds with English words.
This is an idea I took from a book for learning a different language and seems to help activate the memory better, since Finnish is not an IE language so doesn't have as much obvious overlap with other languages.
The key thing is trying to make things easier because it's so easy to dwell and or panic on what is more difficult.
Thank you for your comment! đ§Ą
Thank Varppu for these lovely videos and your permasmile! Eons ago, when I was at school, I learnt languages by self testing and by devouring books in three languages. By the way I like the pictures that appear in the background of your videos. I was lucky to inherit a 1967 120x120cm Reidar Sarestöniemi painting from my parents. My mum was Finnish. The picture was exhibited in 1968 in Luxembourg, where we lived at the time. It shows a spectacular lappisch moonlit nightscape with rendeer made from 5 to 7 brushstrokes depending on the number of legs (3 to 5 ). I now decorates my office/bedroom.
Thank you for sharing this Jean! đ€©
I canât believe I missed this video when you posted it! Thanks for re-sharing it :) Many thanks to you, Varpu! I hope you are doing well.
Glad you were able to catch it now, Sarah đ Same to you!
You are describing the techniques I taught my special education students! Last December, as a 64 year old, I completed my 2nd baccalaureate degree. I earned the first one, in special education, 41 years prior to the BFA I earned recently. I used all of the techniques you mentioned mentioned to get A's in my art history classes. BTW, all of my grandparents were from Finland đ«đź đ
Wow that's amazing! So nice you use these techniques too. Best wishes đ«đźđ
Thank you SO MUCH for this helpful video and for your very clear and neat teachings!
For my experience, I can say a huge leap forward on learning English was by literally speaking it with foreigner people (I studied only french at school), so practicing it day by day was truly helpful.
Thank you again SuperVarpu!
Yes! When there are convo partners and study buddies, it makes it more natural and you really have to make an effort! Love it! Thank you, kiitos!đđ«đźđ€©
Another great video! âșïž
Thank you so much!! đ€
Another good thing is applying "memory hooks" (or "EselsbrĂŒcken" as we say in German).
Remembering the word "usein" (often) ist quite easy when you know that Usain Bolt often won the gold medal in Olympics. :D
Haha I love that memory trick, perfect âĄïž
Good stuff!
Kiitos paljon Aleksi!
Very nice video !
Finnish language will be my next language to learn.
That's great, you can do it!
@@HerFinland Thanks.
You probably pay more attention to your pleasant beautiful accent of Finnish origin. But I know that it is your language that I need the most. Every time I try to learn Finnish while sleeping and at work aurally. Yle Puhe Radio Kuuntelemalla enemmÀn kuin kirjoittamalla. the main thing is to perceive the language as a game. Imitation and repetition as parrot
Thank you for sharing your thoughts!
@@HerFinland most likely itâs best to just come to Finland where the original native speakers with the most correct pronunciation. Because it's too scary and hopeless somehow learning outside abroad.
So, start with an aapinen. Finnish is interesting. No silent letters, every letter has one and only one sound. Compared to English....
Of course, most Finns speak English better than I do.
Thank you for your tips.đ€
Moi Varpu,
I intend to open a coffee shop in Finland. Is there any way you can help me please?

Kiitos kommentista!
wow long video
Yes!! I am getting more comfortable with videos đ€Łđ€Ł
Sleep is so important but I have struggled with continuous sleep.
Yes! Agree 100%
Nothing against any language, I struggle with learning languages esp the throat words. English doesnât have too many sounds that come from the back or throat so o struggle with that. Then remembering omg.
Thank you Ruth!
