    This episode I speak with Irina Pravet, who is one of my favourite people in the world. She always has such a calming approach to things and it’s an absolute joy any time I get to speak with her. As we discuss a little in the interview, we first met back in 2014 at the Polyglot Conference in Novi Sad, during an abnormally warm October. As well as meeting at various events since then, and Irina speaking at Women in Language (which, sidenote, will be back later this year, just a little heads up there), Irina very kindly took some time to teach me an intro to the notorious Finnish cases, which I promise aren’t as bad as it seems at first. In this conversation, I ask Irina how she organises her Finnish Through New Eyes program, designed for learners at various levels. The one thing they do have in common? Living in Finland.

Here's the link to Elfin's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/allaboutitalian/ Elfin is also co-hosting an online course called Instagram for Language Learners.
