Our Approach

At AurinkoLab, we create an encouraging, hands-on learning environment where children grow in skills and confidence. Our small group sizes (8-14 participants) ensure personalized attention for every child.

A short placement test on the first day helps us form balanced groups so each child can learn at their optimal pace.
