About me

Hi! I’m Irina Pravet, a multibelonger to Finland, Canada and Romania without one country or language to call my own; I have several. I moved to Finland & learned Finnish in adulthood, by focusing on where and how I used Finnish, instead of studying it without any end. I can help you do the same. I’m here to teach you through short learning spurts (3h spread over 2-4 weeks), after which you’ll be able to head into different situations with more confidence and witness huge improvements!

I believe each of us is born with an innate ability to adapt to language — so I help people connect with learning the language in a joyful, intuitive way many of us never experience in the traditional classroom.

I have over 10 years of experience learning, plus coaching and teaching others the Finnish language, privately and in groups. I’ve experienced learning Finnish as an adult and know what it’s like to struggle through it. I’ve also seen incredible results in myself & my clients, when they are empowered with the right approach and tools!

I speak English, Finnish, French & Romanian (and have a basic understanding of Spanish & German as well). You can read more about my experience here: https://www.linkedin.com/in/irina-pravet/ or watch my Tedx talk here: https://irinapravet.com/tedx/

Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions about whether working together would be a good fit: write to irina@languagecatalyst.com or call me at 0440255500.
