Learner testimonials:
"Finnish education places such importance on the student, from focusing on social-emotional learning, the importance of relevancy, and learning through play. Students aren't over-burdened with homework and preparing for standardized tests. Equal opportunities (equity) and personalized learning offered by the Finnish system, should be available to all students in all countries. The care and respect given to students, teachers, and parents in the Finnish system provide fertile ground for maximizing learning, teacher satisfaction, and parent involvement." Learner, United States

"I would want to take the knowledge gained from this course to plan my teacher orientation and equip my teachers to plan their curriculum with the core competencies of Finnish education. I will be planning for more play-based education definitely in the early years. Trust, flexibility, growth mindset, early intervention - these would be the basis of my school culture. Reading about Finnish education made me realize the importance of these aspects of education." Learner, India
