Moro!
I'm a trainee in a finnish company in Finland. I live close to Helsinki. Soon my internship will end and I'll go back to my country. The thing is, I like the finnish language and I want to learn a bit more during the time that I am here. I attended a finnish for immigrants course where I live (työvänopisto), just to spend time learning some finnish, but the problem is that it is takes just one and a half hours and only on thursdays. I would like to attend weekend courses, if any, or any other intensive courses. I have schengen visa about 6 months, maybe I can decide to stay my own for some time to learn some finnish after internship.
Even if I cannot learn now, I will maybe have the chance to study either in Sweden during a possible Master's studies in January, or if possible, maybe during Master's studies in Finland next year. I need your advices for my will of learning Finnish as I will continue searching options.
Any weekend courses?
Any private corporation courses? ( Like Berlitz, for example )
Any intensive courses?
Any evening courses? ( preferably more then 3 days a week )
( In my country there is no finnish course, that's why I need to learn here )
Kiitos!
Terveisin!

I do not know anything you could do right now, but if you come here again, then you could check in advance for evening (typically 2-3 evenings in a week) and intensive courses at least in
