My principle in teaching and conducting lessons is to move away from memorizing rules from memory, and, instead, learn to understand the principles of the language and use them in the same way as talking and pronouncing sounds correctly by feeling, and not going over each one in your head all the rules, since there won’t be time for that in real speech. You always need to build on the situation and comfort.

What if learning Finnish isn’t just about the language?
What if it’s about discovering a whole new way to think?

At Levitin Language School, we believe that Finnish is not simply a language of long compound words and vowel harmony — it’s a key to another mental landscape. A quiet, structured, poetic world where meaning is not rushed, but carefully placed. And this is exactly why learning Finnish with a private tutor isn’t just helpful — it’s transformative.


The Finnish Way of Thinking

Finnish is a language that builds meaning from the inside out.
Its structure may seem unusual to speakers of Indo-European languages, but once you begin to understand the logic, you discover how deeply consistent and intuitive it is — just on its own terms.

That’s where a private tutor makes all the difference.


Personalized Learning That Works for You

With a personal tutor, you don’t just memorize grammar — you start to feel the rhythm of the language. You understand how words change depending on function. You begin to think as if in Finnish — even before you can say full sentences.

And for those who don’t speak Finnish natively, don’t worry —
we offer instruction through English, Ukrainian, Polish, Russian, Spanish and other languages, based on what’s most comfortable for you.


Real Teachers, Real Progress

Our team of experienced tutors includes native speakers, professional educators, and multilingual instructors who live what they teach. They don’t rely on apps or textbooks alone — they adapt their teaching to you.

Whether you’re learning Finnish for work, family, travel, relocation, or simply curiosity — we’ll help you speak, understand, and grow into the language at your own pace.


When Finnish Stops Being “Hard”

The truth? Finnish is only “hard” if you try to learn it like English.
But when you stop forcing it to fit your old patterns — and let a new pattern guide you — things start to make sense.

This is the moment we love witnessing at our school:
When a student says, “Oh! I see how this works now.”


You’re Not Just Learning a Language.

You’re Learning to Think Differently.

And that’s exactly what private tutoring allows.
You don’t need hundreds of exercises.
You need the right ones, guided with care.

You need a tutor who listens.
A structure that respects your rhythm.
A school that believes every language is a door to something bigger.
