ANKAA Project with my tutoring services and, also, I teach Greek language in private lessons near the metro stations "Syntagma", "Evangelismos", "Monastiraki", "Panepistimio" and "Victoria", as well as in Pangrati, Kaisariani, Vyronas and Kypseli. Furthermore, lessons can take place through videocall in any preferred platform (Zoom, Skype, etc.).

My MA thesis was successfully presented at the International Conference on Greek Linguistics in 2022. Additionally, I have completed a 9-month training course on "Training adult education: Theory, Praxis, and Microteaching" (National & Kapodistrian University of Athens).

My class integrates traditional and innovative teaching methods and techniques, such as games, role-playing and music activities. It is student-centered and based on modern communicational approaches.

I am bilingual, Greek and French. 30 years of experience as a teacher, I give French lessons at all levels: DELF, DALF, SORBONNE, CCIP and CNED. On webcam in a studious atmosphere, I offer all electronic material free of charge on word and PDF pages. Specializing in both literary and economic texts, I take care of beginners as well as advanced people who want to progress in French. It is the same for all levels in Greek. Graduated from the University of Sorbonne IV Paris, I also work on corrections of memoirs, comments and translations. All the material for the French literary baccalaureate and for the French literature of the Aristotle Universities of Thessaloniki and Kapodistrian of Athens are provided free of charge.
MY METHODOLOGY Expert for beginners, since I have worked a lot on my "beginners" method which is based on my own experience in collaboration with specialist writers from CLE international and so we proceed in stages. My methodology for other levels includes a variety of documents + books from major publishing houses, authentic sound documents, grammar exercises, animated dialogues, role plays with the learner, phonetics exercises, morphosyntax, analyzes of press articles or magazines from the same day of the real news and thus develop the side of French civilization and culture too much demanded for the DELF, DALF, SORBONNE exams. On webcam I share my screen, I write most of the terms and I send them after the lesson in pdf on the email of the student. The student will be able to print my notes. I also use specialized methods for English speakers. My lesson is not limited to an hour of 60 minutes because I send you throughout the week videos, magazines of your interest: arts, fashion, politics, history, health etc.

Learn Modern Greek as a second or a foreign language.
I am a Greek native licensed language teacher based in Athens, Greece, and I offer private online lessons in modern Greek.

I teach modern Greek to beginners that speak English or German.
I also teach directly in Greek to intermediate or advanced students, as well as beginners that live in Greece.
I focus on making the lesson as communicative as possible.
The lessons are tailored to the learner's level, goals, needs & preferences, while placing particular emphasis on developing communication skills.
The basic skills of language learning (reading, listening, writing & speaking) are equally emphasized.

Modern Greek is a difficult language to learn, nevertheless it will surely enrich your world. It takes years of dedication to master it. Learning Greek in Greece is very helpful, as it is a difficult language to learn and in Greece you can practice it directly in your daily activities.

With Greek knowledge you will be able to travel all over Greece and Cyprus while communicating with the people you meet in their mother tongue. Learning modern Greek gives you understanding in ancient Greek as well, and a lot of international words that have an ancient Greek root.

A total beginner typically needs 3-4 years of 2-hour weekly lessons to be able to communicate on an intermediate level of B1.
Trips to Greece and contact with people that speak the language help greatly to gain a quicker pace of learning.

I typically suggest a graded textbook (for communicative or business purposes), but also provide the learner with handouts, in order to offer an authentic language experience. I provide and suggest extra educational material for self-study.
I prepare students for a Greek language certificate (all levels) or for the Greek citizenship test that is required for the residence permit.

I've been teaching modern Greek as well as Ancient Greek to adult expats and students of international schools in Athens and abroad(Dubai)for over 20 years, helping them to communicate fluently in Greek and succeed in the exams for the Proficiency Certification in Greek language! I'm a Bachelor's degree holder and have been working also as a freelance interpreter.
I've been teaching also English as a second language for 20 years. I"ve worked in a primary school in Great Britain, following a scholarship I received from the Greek State Fund and participated in the school's unit for children with special language disorders since I'm qualified in teaching students withspecial learning difficulties such as dyslexia. I have extensive experience in teaching English and preparing students for all diplomas and certifications of Michigan and Cambridge Universities and I have also worked in the most established foreign language school, EURODIASTASI as a teacher and as a director of studies. I am a graduate of the Kapodistrian University, Department of French Language and Literature, associate of the international teaching certificate TESOL/TEFL as well as the teaching diploma of CAMBRIDGE university.
