The Multicultural Association offers opportunities to study Finnish and foreign languages in Pori. There is no prior registration for courses, and you can start studying at any time of the year. You can participate in courses if you are a member of the Multicultural Association, but naturally, you can attend a few sessions to get acquainted with the course before becoming a member.
In addition to language courses, SMY also offers conversation groups in various languages. Group and course schedules can be found in the top menu of the page!

SMY organizes weekly conversation groups in different languages. Groups meet at the International Meeting Place (Otavankatu 5B, 28100 Pori), and their instructors usually speak both Finnish and the language of the group.
You can see the schedules of conversation groups here.
No prior registration is required for the groups, and they are free for SMY members.
