Finnish Education System

   Visit to Hannunniittu Primary School

Another of the events I attended is the visit to "Hannunniittu Primary School". I was very excited about this event. In the event, it was written that the 3rd grade and the 6th grade students will speak English and spend time together. I wondered when I saw this. With this activity, I could see the Finnish education system and how primary education was.

     When we went to school, I and Eda sister (that PhD exchange student and also my neighbor) met Krista Paavola. We also communicated with other exchange students. I asked which country they were from. I was curious about their thoughts about this event.
Another thing that I learned and saw was that students took off their shoes in the classroom. When we asked why, we learned that students are more comfortable and necessary for hygiene.
We met 5th grade students. Their English level was a little better. We communicated more comfortably.

Another positive thing that this event added was that we had the opportunity to communicate with the teachers there, so we learned a lot of information about the Finnish education system.

With this activity, I analyzed their feelings and thoughts. I learned that they shot Tiktok Video. Some students showed me some dance figures. Some students loved school. Some did not like their lessons and some did not like their teachers.
I had the opportunity to compare while talking to them. What was I like when I was their age? How was the system in our country? How is our English education system? How is the English education system in Finland? I had the opportunity to answer many questions like this.
