The KiTu project aims to find ways to support multilingual children’s Finnish learning. We investigate the effects of various phonetic excercises on speech production and comprehension with children from different language backgrounds. The excercises that are found most effective and suitable for the classroom will be published online for unlimited use. After Finnish, the project will focus on finding similar solutions for teaching English.

This project is funded by the Turku Urban Research Programme.
