In Santa Monica
Welcome to Suomi-koulu in Santa Monica!
​
Our muskari, or Parent-Child Music Class, offers a musical experience for children aged 0-2 and their parents. For ages three and above, our Finnish language classes immerse children in language through play and cultural activities. The instruction is in Finnish, yet children without sufficient language skills can join if accompanied by a Finnish-speaking parent. Classes in Santa Monica are taught by our experienced teacher Kati Vaarasuo.

Tervetuloa Santa Monican Suomi-kouluun!
Muskarimme (vanhempi-lapsi -musiikkihetki) tarjoaa mukavan hetken 0-2 -vuotiaille lapsille ja heidän vanhemmilleen. Lapsille kolmesta vuodesta ylöspäin tarjoamme suomen kielen tunteja leikkien ja innostavien kielen ja kulttuurin harjoitusten avulla. Opetus tapahtuu suomen kielellä, joten mikäli lapsen suomen kielen taito on heikko, hän voi osallistua suomea puhuvan vanhemman kanssa.
