Finnish Learning Partner Wanted

I am looking for an individual (native Finnish speaker preferably that knows English fairly well) to communicate by email for improving my written and spoken Finnish (to the citizenship exam level). In return, I will coach on written and spoken English (qualilficiations to do that include US citizen, executive management business background and higher education credentials). Post or email me at [email protected] if interested.

If you think that the Finnish discussions are too advanced for you, you can start a discussion of your own.

I am willing to help you but I do not want to do it by email for various reasons. Post something to one of the forums above and I will respond to it.

Thanks for all the help and offers. One of the courageous . members has been kind enough to contact me by email. However, I have already looked at some of the suggested sites and also found them helpful. After three years, I am now serious enough to "do or die" regarding learning Finnish. If anyone lives in the Lahti area, I could supplementing my email efforts with person-to-person coaching would be nice.

Again, thanks!

Thought I better correct my own English. That last sentence should read -If anyone lives in the Lahti area, supplementing my email efforts would be nice with person-to-person coaching.

There. That's better. Don't want to be a bad English speaking influence.
