Teuvo Pakkala (originally Teodor Oskar Frosterus, 9 April 1862 – 17 May 1925) was a Finnish author, playwright, reporter, linguist and teacher.

He also translated works of Norwegian writers Henrik Ibsen, Jonas Lie, Alexander Kielland and Knut Hamsun.

He worked as a teacher 1907–1920, and shows in his books about children an unprecedented understanding of child psychology.

One of the reasons may be, that he also wrote "folk drama", including a very popular musical play "Tukkijoella".

In 1921 he co-founded the original Finn Film in Oulu, Finland, with Toivo T. Kaila and G.H.
