Supisuomea (Yle)

What it actually is

A public-broadcaster series of short video lessons on everyday situations with accompanying exercises, made for adults learning Finnish and left online free. The filming is visibly dated but the sequencing and the acted dialogues hold up well as listening practice. Note that Yle Kielikoulu, the newer subtitled-video learning service, was shut down in May 2025 — these older archives are what remain.
