it’s an excellent course if you’re looking to pass YKI. besides feeling better about my odds of passing, Mari’s gentle and practical approach has given me the motivation to study more, develop self confidence and not fear the test. My Finnish skills have grown exponentially in the last few weeks. HIGHLY RECOMMEND! 🙂

I’ve got all 4s on the keskitaso test, so the result speaks for itself really.
The hardest part of YKI is, I would say, timing (many tasks are severely timeboxed), as well as certain tricky assignment formats such as “maintaining dialogue with a recording”. Accordingly, this course makes you so familiarized with the exam that nothing will surprise you come the test day. You will be able to focus on the actual “meat” of the assignments, already having a gut feeling of what is expected and what you can fit into the allotted time. It helps a lot.
While having exercises correlating to all parts of the test, the course focuses more on the “productive skills”, especially speaking, as it tends to be the most challenging aspect. Mari speaks very clearly, so if you can listen to YLE selkouutiset, you will have no problem understanding everything (and of course everything important is discussed in English as well).
There will be a lot of people in this course, and because of that it cannot be super interactive during the live lessons, but it’s what makes the course cost-effective.
Having a tight schedule helped me also with motivation, as I didn’t have time to forget about the studies, and it’s in the evening, which is very convenient when you have a day job. This course was a perfect fit for me. Kiitos paljon Mari! 🙏

This was my third time taking the YKI exam, and I hadn’t passed any of the test parts before. With this great course, I was able to get a 3 in listening, reading, and writing. All in all, as an experienced YKI test taker, I highly recommend the course. It, of course, depends on your attention and the time you put into studying and understanding the test materials, but this course is an excellent leverage for the time you spend studying before the YKI exam. Mari Kokkonen, who was my teacher during the course, did great work. She was able to pass her confidence to us by not only teaching the exam topics but also teaching us how to approach the exam questions. Good teachers can teach the students the topics and chapters, but excellent teachers will give them confidence and teach them how to approach the questions, use their time efficiently, and direct their focus to the things they know rather than the things they don’t.

Mari is best teacher to training for YKI and also you need to train yourself to reach your goal. Mari will give all information and resources for it. With Mari I passed the exam from the first time. I definitely recommend this course to my friends!!!

This course is the kick-start you need to start speaking and writing Finnish. It gives one the confidence to start practicing which is the best way to learn a language.

The “YKI-treeni online” course is a powerhouse of motivation! From the very first lesson, we dove into analyzing the challenges we might face in the real exam. It demands significant effort for independent work, but that’s the beauty of it—no teacher can implant knowledge in your head if you don’t want it yourself. It’s crucial to have at least an A2 level before joining, as this course is designed to enhance your existing knowledge, not build it from scratch.
The teacher’s dedication was outstanding. We tackled every unclear issue in great detail. Even when class time ran out, our discussions continued online, ensuring all questions were answered. By the time I faced the real exam, I had no doubts about how to pass it. The only question was whether I could handle the pressure—and yes, I could! I am eternally grateful to the Mari for her invaluable support in this challenging journey.
