While most apps just teach you words, Learn Finnish Bundle: The Complete Beginner to Advanced Course (Levels 1-5) teaches Finnish through useful, everyday conversations so you can have those same conversations in fluent Finnish.

The five Basic Bootcamp lessons each center on a practical, real-life conversation. At the beginning of the lesson, we'll introduce the background of the conversation.

This course teaches the standard Finnish language, "yleiskieli."
