1. Language requirements for studying in Finland
Finnish
Finland is located in northern Europe and on the edge of the European continent, so all parties will be strange to you. But it's not difficult for you to learn Finnish, and it doesn't take long to sign up for classes.
Strictly speaking, Finnish belongs to phonography, where it is easy to write according to pronunciation, so as long as you can understand and communicate, there will be no great obstacles in reading and writing. But at present, there are not many institutions with good training foundation in China.
Therefore, I suggest that if you choose to teach in Finnish, you should go to Finland to study Finnish for about one year, which will be more effective and cost-effective, because even if you train in China, you still have to study in Finland. And at present, there is no official assessment of Finland in China. Everyone must go to neighboring countries or Finland to take the exam, and the school will also have a special assessment. Therefore, it is more appropriate to go directly to Finland for language improvement training before applying for admission.
English
As a highly internationalized country, English is also a very common language in Finland, especially in the field of education. The higher the level, the wider the application scope of English. Basically, undergraduate education is popular in major universities, and you can choose it as the teaching language directly.
As English is the second foreign language for domestic students, so everyone has a good foundation, it will not be difficult to take the international standardized English tests IELTS and TOEFL. You just need to sign up for classes and get familiar with the content and mode of the exam.
At present, the language requirements for English in undergraduate stage are IELTS score above 6.0 and TOEFL score above 85; Master's degree, IELTS score above 6.5, TOEFL score above 90.
However, if you want to communicate smoothly in your study and life, you should spend special time to improve your spoken English. You can take an extra oral class and get familiar with the common words in Finnish daily English, which will make it easier to adapt.
