TFF - Teacher From Finland is my Youtube channel. This page is for my "course" Introduction to Psychology, based mostly on the Finnish national curriculum and books used at Finnish "senior highschools", and of course my own education.
On this website you can see what other courses I have planned to create for my channel.
