Dear student,

While in Finland, would you like to have a possibility to interact easily with Finnish people outside your studies and get firsthand experience of the Finnish education system?

If so, one option is visiting a real Finnish school through the Erasmus in Schools -programme!  By joining  the programme you get a chance to see take part in a normal school day by giving the students lessons as a visiting student.

Erasmus in Schools offers you:

  • a possibility to visit one or more schools (preschool, primary, secondary, vocational) at your region or in a town nearby
  • a possibility to meet Finnish teachers and pupils
  • a possibility to take part in classes of your choice e.g. telling about your home country, teaching language, subject of your study, sports… 
    a possibility to form a connection to the school and the teacher/s for possible future cooperation
  • travelling expenses will be reimbursed

Your school visit makes a difference to the pupils!

  • Your visit encourages them to use foreign languages
