In this episode, I talk about my new course in August.

◾ A blog post about the course: https://randomfinnishlesson.blogspot.com/2024/07/tuntematonkimiraikkonen.html

◾ A sample of the book: bit.ly/kimiräikkönen-näyte

I've noticed that reading an easy Finnish book can be quite challenging, even if the book is super interesting and written in easy-to-understand language. I have now designed a small course to help and encourage you to read 'Tuntematon Kimi Räikkönen' during August! The book is an easy Finnish adaptation of Kari Hotakainen's biography of the Formula 1 driver Kimi Räikkönen.

The course includes

◾ pre-recorded videos by me talking about the book and reading aloud. (You can read at the same time with me and practice your long vowels!)

◾ fascinating Kimi-related finds from YouTube

◾ multiple choice questions about the book

◾ four meetings on Zoom, held on one Sunday and three Thursday evenings:

- Sunday, August 11, at 8.00 P.M (EEST)
- Thursday, August 15, at 8.00 P.M (EEST)
- Thursday, August 22, at 8.00 P.M (EEST)
- Thursday, August 29, at 8.00 P.M (EEST)

Tuntematon Kimi Räikkönen is the book for August in my free Telegram group, so you can chat with me and other readers there, if you want. https://randomfinnishlesson.blogspot.com/2024/01/selkokirjaryhma-telegramissa.html
