Modern Greek Language for beginners/intermediates by Native Greek Speaker

From 78 C$ /h

(EN) Thinking of moving to Greece or just fascinated by the Greek language? Then this course is for you! In these classes you will be introduced to the fundamentals of Modern Greek through developing written, oral, reading and listening skills. Learn how to converse in every day situations, write an email, or listen to the news and cultivate your appreciation of Greek culture.

My teaching philosophy centres around the premise that learning should be fun. Through encouraging a creative, interactive and engaging environment, students are motivated to explore their own individual relationships with their target language, allowing them to become confident speakers.

Let's meet and discuss your linguistic goals and aspirations. It would be my honour to help you achieve them!

(GR) Σκέφτεστε να μετακομίσετε στην Ελλάδα ή απλώς γοητεύεστε από την ελληνική γλώσσα; Τότε αυτό το μάθημα είναι για εσάς! Σε αυτά τα μαθήματα θα μυηθείτε στις βασικές αρχές της Νέας Ελληνικής με την ανάπτυξη δεξιοτήτων γραπτού, προφορικού, ανάγνωσης και ακρόασης. Μάθετε πώς να συνομιλείτε σε καθημερινές καταστάσεις, να γράφετε ένα email ή να ακούτε τις ειδήσεις και να καλλιεργήσετε την εκτίμησή σας για τον ελληνικό πολιτισμό.

Η διδακτική μου φιλοσοφία επικεντρώνεται στην αρχή ότι η μάθηση οφείλει να είναι διασκεδαστική. Μέσω της ενθάρρυνσης ενός δημιουργικού, διαδραστικού και ελκυστικού περιβάλλοντος, οι μαθητές παρακινούνται να εξερευνήσουν τις ατομικές τους σχέσεις με τη γλώσσα-στόχο τους, επιτρέποντάς τους να γίνουν ομιλητές με αυτοπεποίθηση.

Ανυπομονώ να σας γνωρίσω και να συζητήσουμε τους γλωσσικούς σας στόχους και φιλοδοξίες. Θα ήταν τιμή μου να σας βοηθήσω να τα πετύχετε!

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

⚠️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.

Latin and Greek are beautiful but difficult languages to learn. Many students lose heart and motivation after a few bad grades. Together, we will look at where your stumbling blocks lie, and from there, I will help you move forward. I align as much as possible with your schoolwork. I also provide you with tools and strategies to learn (vocabulary) and translate better. This way, you strengthen the foundation, your results improve, and you go to class with more enjoyment and self-confidence again.
I also provide Latin and Greek exam training, including interim training for school exams.
