Modern Greek from the perspective of a native. Are you ready? Πάμε!!

From 24.73 C$ /h

Hello Linguophiles 👋✨️

My name is Despoina, I’m of Greek origin, and Greek is my mother tongue. Friends and family call me Debbie, so that’s how you’re going to call me too! 😊

I hold a degree in psychology and am a licensed professional in Greece, currently pursuing my MSc in Health Psychology!

I love learning new languages and exploring different cultures and perspectives. I have a B2 certificate in Spanish, and I’m currently learning Korean. If you’re a linguophile like me and would like to learn Modern Greek, you’re in the right place!

About the Classes:

Classes are designed for all levels, and together, we’ll cover different aspects of the Greek language, including:

📝The Greek alphabet
📝Grammar rules
📝Vocabulary

⚠️Important Note:

Since I’m not a certified Greek language teacher but a native speaker, I will teach you Modern Greek from the perspective of a native. The focus will be on speaking practice (writing can also be taught), and building vocabulary to help you understand everyday conversations and express yourself with ease. If you aim for casual learning of the language I can also assist you.

If you already have a good knowledge of Modern Greek and just want to sharpen your skills, I can help you with extra speaking practice and answer any grammar questions to improve the flow of your speech and deepen your understanding.

Unlocking the mind: A Deep Dive into Psychology. Classes for anyone interested in the science of psychology. Are you ready? Let's start!

32.97 C$ /h

Hello, psychophiles! 👋

My name is Despoina, and I’m of Greek origin. Friends and family call me Debbie, so that’s how you’re going to call me too! 😊 I hold a degree in psychology and am a licensed professional in Greece, currently pursuing my MSc in Health Psychology!

I may have limited tutoring experience, but what I bring to the table is my limitless passion for psychology. My strong academic background, participation in several seminars (depression and psychotherapy, analytic group psychotherapy, somatic illnesses, etc.), as well as my internships (A21, Center for Talented Youth – CTY), have allowed me to explore psychology in greater depth and gain hands-on experience and valuable knowledge.

Are you curious about why people think, feel, and behave the way they do? Welcome to Unlocking the Mind, an engaging and thought-provoking psychology course designed for students (and not only!) eager to explore the depths of human behavior.

Psychology isn’t just a subject—it’s a window into understanding ourselves and the world around us. In this course, we’ll dive into various branches of psychology, from cognitive and behavioral to clinical and social, uncovering the fascinating mechanisms behind emotions, decision-making, memory, and personality.

But this isn’t your average lecture-style class! Expect dynamic discussions, real-world applications, and an interactive learning experience featuring educational videos, movie analyses, and thought-provoking case studies. I’ll also recommend must-read books to deepen your understanding of the field.

Whether you’re new to psychology or looking to expand your knowledge, this course will challenge your thinking and provide you with invaluable insights into the human mind. Classes will be tailored to your needs, ensuring a personalized and enriching experience.

In addition to the core topics, I’m also happy to assist with exam preparation, psychology assignments, or simply answer any questions you have about the field. If you love discussing psychology as much as I do, let’s dive into engaging conversations and explore the subject together!

Let’s explore the science of psychology together—because understanding the mind is the key to unlocking endless possibilities! 🧠📝💡✨

Greek Reading Class: Practice reading through engaging material prepared with love from a native Greek tutor :)

42.87 C$ /h

Hello learners :) I've been working as a Greek tutor for almost a year now, and I'm excited to launch my new project: Greek Reading class! If you already know how to read in Greek, and you just need some extra engaging and stimulating reading practice to either upgrade your level or just enhance your vocabulary and boost your confidence while reading Greek, this class is for you! In each class you'll be given the chance to practice reading though different stories, articles, book chapters etc. This class is not limited to just reading, but together we'll try to translate any written text and engage in either small and guided discussion or "choose the correct answer" type of questions. In this way, I'm aiming to boost each student's confidence regarding Greek comprehension.

Why this class is best for you?:
As a foreign language learner myself, I know that practicing reading can be a bit demanding and time consuming, due to our everyday responsibilities! But with this class is a guarantee that you'll be dedicating at least one hour per week to practice reading with low effort (material will be provided + guidance by me).

If that class speaks to you I'm more than glad to get to know you and practice reading together!

I believe that everyone has the potential to master a new language. Don't give up, even if it seems difficult at first! Many things become much easier when explained a little differently. I myself am passionate about languages and am happy to help if something seems a bit challenging.
My native languages are both Greek and German, so I grew up bilingual and have spoken Greek since I was little.
I always place great emphasis on individual needs so that we can get the best possible results!

Modern Greek is a very interesting language, with a long history. Many Greek words can be found in foreign languages, helping you understand better your own language!

Teaching Greek online since 2021, I am aware of the difficulty of learning a new language, especially online. That's why I try to combine multiple teaching approaches and methods, focusing mainly on the communicative approach. I use all kinds of teaching material, like up-to-date manuals, songs, online tools, games, audios, movies and TV series, in order to make the lesson as engaging as possible!

Learning Greek is important because it connects you to one of the world’s oldest cultures and languages. It helps you understand history, philosophy, and science, as many English words come from Greek. It also allows deeper communication with Greek people and enhances travel experiences by appreciating traditions, literature, and local life more meaningfully.

As a Greek-Belgian educator ,I am highly qualified with a degree in French Language and Literature from the National and Kapodistrian University of Athens (ΕΚPA). I also hold the Sorbonne C2 certification and a formal teaching license (Eparkeia), fully recognized for professional instruction.
With many years of experience in both private tutoring and language institutes (frontistiria), I have developed a personalized teaching approach that caters to the unique needs of each student.
A highlight of my career is my collaboration with the Embassy of Belgium in Athens, where I was entrusted with the Greek language training of the Ambassador, the Consul, and high-ranking diplomats. This experience has given me deep expertise in teaching Greek as a foreign language to professionals and diplomats, focusing on both language proficiency and cultural nuance.
I am now offering online Greek or French lessons for students in Belgium, combining my academic background with my extensive practical experience to ensure fast and effective learning
