Are you raising a child in a multilingual environment — navigating Finnish and your family’s mother tongue? Curious about how children truly acquire multiple languages and what science says about it? In November 2025 we received an engaging and evidence-based lecture designed especially for international parents. We explored how children learn languages naturally, what research reveals about multilingual development, and debunked common myths that often cause confusion or concern.
“Understanding Multilingualism: From Research to Reality”
Speaker: Brent Wilson, Ph.D., Logopedics
Date and time: Wed 12 Nov 2025 at 17:00-18:00
Location: Tampere University. City Center Campus, Main building, classroom A05
Whether you were just starting your multilingual parenting journey or had years of experience, this event offered a welcoming space to learn, ask questions, and connect with other families. Free and open to all – children were welcome!
