WEBVTT Kind: captions; Language: fi 1 00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:10.950 2 00:00:10.950 --> 00:00:19.720 3 00:00:19.720 --> 00:00:24.610 In Finland school doesn't cost anything and 4 00:00:24.610 --> 00:00:30.510 we all have the same possibilities in learning so your background doesn't matter. 5 00:00:30.510 --> 00:00:36.320 We also have free lunch and 6 00:00:36.320 --> 00:00:41.090 options for vegetarians and people with allergies. 7 00:00:41.090 --> 00:00:46.220 Teachers here are very easy to talk to. 8 00:00:46.220 --> 00:00:50.040 I think they're very easy to approach, 9 00:00:50.040 --> 00:00:55.650 and I feel like they really take time to plan our classes so that studying 10 00:00:55.650 --> 00:01:00.880 would be more fun to us students and 11 00:01:00.880 --> 00:01:06.590 they're not like just robots, who are teaching in front of the class, 12 00:01:06.590 --> 00:01:10.460 so that's cool. We have 13 00:01:10.460 --> 00:01:15.790 different kinds of learning materials. Like we use books 14 00:01:15.790 --> 00:01:19.980 like probably everyone else but, we also have Ipad's 15 00:01:19.980 --> 00:01:24.340 We use different kinds of 16 00:01:24.340 --> 00:01:29.700 teaching and learning methods. We work in pairs and discuss 17 00:01:29.700 --> 00:01:35.440 about the stuff we are studying and we also do group projects. 18 00:01:35.440 --> 00:01:39.710 Technology in learning is preparing us for 19 00:01:39.710 --> 00:01:45.400 the future. We use net a lot in our 20 00:01:45.400 --> 00:01:49.980 research and what I think it´s a good 21 00:01:49.980 --> 00:01:54.710 issue. We have many holidays and they are just 22 00:01:54.710 --> 00:01:59.620 the right length. They're not too long, but that long 23 00:01:59.620 --> 00:02:05.080 that, we can rest and get our thoughts out of school. 24 00:02:05.080 --> 00:02:10.300 I also like that we have 25 00:02:10.300 --> 00:02:14.630 classrooms for specific subjects, 26 00:02:14.630 --> 00:02:19.940 like arts and woodcraft's and 27 00:02:19.940 --> 00:02:26.400 well, we have also for biology and chemistry, 28 00:02:26.400 --> 00:02:28.650 and... Do you have 29 00:02:28.650 --> 00:02:35.190 anything else? Music. Yeah music! So we think, 30 00:02:35.190 --> 00:02:40.130 I think our school Norssi, we have 31 00:02:40.130 --> 00:02:44.720 a lot of great teachers, a lot of 32 00:02:44.720 --> 00:02:49.150 great, great ways to learn and teach. 33 00:02:49.150 --> 00:02:50.820 And I think 34 00:02:50.820 --> 00:02:56.630 people's have good connection 35 00:02:56.630 --> 00:03:01.190 to the teacher and to each other in the classroom. 36 00:03:01.190 --> 00:03:06.570 The best thing in Finnish school system is probably 37 00:03:06.570 --> 00:03:11.680 the opportunity to choose 38 00:03:11.680 --> 00:03:16.810 subjects we want to study. We can choose 39 00:03:16.810 --> 00:03:21.650 what sports we want to 40 00:03:21.650 --> 00:03:26.590 do, or if we want to 41 00:03:26.590 --> 00:03:30.430 study a new language or... 42 00:03:30.430 --> 00:03:33.470 We can choose 43 00:03:33.470 --> 00:03:36.290 from many subjects. 44 00:03:36.290 --> 00:03:40.810 I think the best thing about Finnish schools is that everything 45 00:03:40.810 --> 00:03:45.380 is free, for example food and the books. 46 00:03:45.380 --> 00:03:49.850 The best of Finnish school is 47 00:03:49.850 --> 00:03:54.370 it's close to a real life and when you go first 48 00:03:54.370 --> 00:03:58.840 grade it's chill and fun. 49 00:03:58.840 --> 00:04:03.520 Class spirit is good if you have 50 00:04:03.520 --> 00:04:08.670 been in same class for example four years. 51 00:04:08.670 --> 00:04:12.380 It just gets better and better. 52 00:04:12.380 --> 00:04:18.040 I think the memories, what it has come on the 53 00:04:18.040 --> 00:04:22.390 first class and the second class, and it has 54 00:04:22.390 --> 00:04:27.830 been fun. And I think it's fun to 55 00:04:27.830 --> 00:04:30.060 think things what I have done.
