Private lessons

From 105.68 C$ /h

This is where you can start your journey toward reading Homer, Plato and Sophocles in the original!
In this class you will learn the basics of the Ancient Greek language, starting with the alphabet and going all the way to simple sentences. I had a lot of fun learning Ancient Greek and I want to help you have fun with it too. This is why I prefer to teach at a slower pace, so everyone spends some time with the material and gets to know it in their own way. You can expect a good mix of challenges and creative revision, as well as a bit of historical context for a better understanding of Ancient Greek as a language that was alive in the mouths of great poets and millions of anonymous people!

Let's start by declensions and so on. We'll discover the verbal tenses and how is a phrase done. You don't know the slight aspects unless have studied how Ancient Greek's verbs work, or the Ancient Indian.
So, if we can translate texts (at first easier ones, the the original), we could reach anywhere in the vast world around the Roman Empire. Latin is the basis for the Romance languages. And Greek is more usual between us than you could imagine (Medicine, over all).

You could structure your mind as the ancient did! They are the "little box" where you can put in whatever you want. It also provides a manner to live and to work in order to know the essential tasks and the rest.

My name is Serdane and I offer ancient language courses to secondary school students who may have difficulty developing a working method that suits them. Extroverted and bubbly...and above all, a lot of humor!

Everyone learns in their own way. This is why I do not adopt a rigid method, but rather I adapt to the specificities of each student. I assess their level, their strengths, any weaknesses or delays, and I adjust my course accordingly. My priority is to restore the student's confidence: Latin and Greek are accessible to everyone when they are well explained!

I believe in the effectiveness of active teaching methods: I encourage maximum student participation, guiding them to discover what works best for them. This allows him to continue his learning independently.

Finally, I provide specific help for the preparation of questions or exams in more complex subjects.

My price includes full tutoring (private lessons, possibility of asking questions outside of class hours, assistance with writing and correcting questions, etc.).

I am a native speaker of Greek. I graduated from a Greek high school and, later, the University of Athens where I attended courses in pedagogics, psychology, and linguistics.

During our lessons, I'll help you develop your skills (oral/written, and not only). I'll also try to help you improve your pronunciation and spelling. I assign homework and after I receive it, correct it thoroughly additionally providing a lot of remarks/examples if they are necessary.

I worked at a language center between 2009-2016 where I was a director of studies and taught mainly English as a foreign/second language. Since 2005, when I first started teaching Greek, I have taught children and adults on a variety of language proficiency levels, mainly individually.

I constantly seek progress, meaning that I study further through reading books/articles concerning didactics/methodology and learning difficulties (chiefly dyslexia), observing other teachers as well as attending seminars (online or face-to-face).

During my lessons I use :
- Skype/Whatsapp/Messenger to connect with you,
- Google Docs to keep notes, which you can check at any time and they are yours to keep,
- sketch board me to make mind maps to show connections between ideas, etc.
- books, PPP, word docs, diagrams, pics, etc.
- pronunciation/spelling/grammar games,
- authentic materials were taken from websites.

I adore my profession and desire each and every one of my students be satisfied with the lesson. That's why I make sure the atmosphere is stress-free and nice. I also want my lessons to be as effective and close to real-life needs as possible. Therefore, I make sure they are well-prepared, although they can be altered at any point, should such an opportunity arise. I like explaining things in a variety of ways as well as make use of dictionaries, diagrams, etc. When it comes to students who want to obtain certificates, I am very demanding.

What can I teach?
- I would love to help you improve/develop all language skills (speaking/writing-listening/reading + grammar/vocabulary/pronunciation),
- I would love to help you prepare for state certificates such as A1, A2, B1, B2, C1, C2.
- I would love to help you with homework and assignments (literature, history) from school and university (but please contact me about that IN ADVANCE).

Regarding Ancient Greek, I can help you with commentaries/translations/grammar/syntax:
- Socrates, Plato, Aristotle,
- Homer, Aeschylus, Euripides, Sophocles, Sappho,
- Herodotus, Thucydides, Xenophon.

I have been teaching Greek and Latin to students of secondary education successfully for the last twenty years. I have attained Bachelor Classical Greek and Latin Language and Literature, in National and Kapodistrian University of Athens. In addition, I have gained Master (Ma) in Pedagogical Psychology and Educational Act in Harokopio University of Athens.
I am really enthusiastic and eager to help young students and the institution to achieve their goals. Also, I am a very reliable, communicative and sociable person, willing to co operate with multicultural people. I have a very good knowledge of my subject and immense contact with students and teenagers. The studies in pedagogical psychology have offered me important opportunities to treat difficult cases and behaviors of students or parents. In addition, I can make decisions quickly and implement them in order to achieve the control of my students in the class. Furthermore, experience in education has helped me to develop very good relationships with the parents of my students and co-operate with them.

An introduction to the basic syntactic and grammatical phenomena of the ancient Greek language. We use texts from the ancient Greek Literature (Ancient Greek History, Tragedies and Myths) as well as the Bible or Byzantine Hymnology in order to better understand the structure and way of thinking of the Greek language. The course is addressed to anyone who either has or doesn't have a knowledge of the Greek language. It is built as a personalized course, based on each student's level, motivation and learning needs.

Hello! I'm Andrés, and I have a degree in Classical Philology. I teach Latin and Ancient Greek at all levels, both for academic support and for those who want to learn these two languages for pleasure. I like to teach these subjects using new methodologies that make learning them more enjoyable and enjoyable for the student. I also like to complement the teaching of these languages with culture and history classes, as it's very important to understand the context in which we operate in each class. I adapt to the needs of each student. I also teach Spanish Language and Literature support classes for students in primary, secondary, and high school, as well as for those taking university entrance exams.

The class format, in-person or online, is flexible for me, so let me know which option you prefer and we'll work together to start scheduling. If you have any other suggestions, please don't hesitate to write to me. See you!

I have several years of experience tutoring students of different age groups in Latin and Ancient Greek. I am deeply passionate about these languages and I enjoy helping students improving at them.
I believe that understanding the structure of a sentence is fundamental when approaching these languages, therefore this is an important focus for me. During the class I always dedicate some time to reasoning and translating sentences together with the student.

I have a BS in pharmaceutical biotechnology and I am currently a master student in Medicine. I find biology very fascinating and I have been tutoring it for years now. Depending on the topic and the student's needs, I structure the lessons differently. I usually explain the topic and use tools such as spaced repetition, notes, conceptual maps to make sure that the student has understood.

A LIVING METHOD
Whether you are a beginner or more advanced, I will help you progress in Latin or ancient Greek, which you will learn as a living language: it will not be primarily a question of translating Latin or Greek, but above all of speaking it, reading it, writing it!

FORGET YOUR DICTIONARY
By doing so, you will memorize vocabulary and grammatical structures much more easily than with the classic method based essentially on translation. You will no longer spend your life in the dictionary, and eventually, you will read your favorite authors like an open book!

LATIN
I essentially offer a living Latin course based on the Orberg method, acclaimed by thousands of Latinists around the world. Whether you are a beginner or more advanced, I can accompany you on the chapters corresponding to your level of Familia Romana (first volume) or Roma Aeterna (second volume). It is therefore important that you get this book.

If you want to work on Familia Romana, I also highly recommend that you purchase the Vivarium Novum workbook to consolidate your learning: volume I for chapters I to XIX, volume II for chapters XX to XXXIV.

GREEK
For Greek, we will use the Logos method. It will be up to the student to obtain a copy of this manual.

A LA CARTE COURSES
However, I am attentive to pupils and students who are waiting for more conventional methods, particularly in the context of preparing for the baccalaureate, the competitive examinations for the grandes écoles, or even the agrégation. Version, theme, explanation of an old text: all these exercises are well known to me for having practiced them for many years.

It is also possible to build a course based on your desires (excluding erotic texts and magic manuals). Do you want to follow one method rather than another? Discover a particular author? Tell me! Be careful, however, to remain realistic! We do not tackle Xenophon or Titus Livius without a solid level.

Do not hesitate to contact me for any request.

NB: I do not offer translation services, and even less for tattoos. Thank you for your understanding.

If you want to progress quickly through the material in order to take exams for a certification or for other personal reasons, the lessons can be structured to include some study at home.

The lessons are designed to ensure that learning happens during the session itself, with no homework required—unless we decide together to include it for faster progress towards certifications or personal goals. This way, studying Greek becomes enjoyable and stress-free, without interfering with your daily routine or feeling like an obligation.

This course is designed to prepare students for reading the Greek of the New Testament, along with other texts written in Koine Greek, e.g. the Septuagint, Josephus, Epictetus, etc. Students will learn grammar, syntax, and vocabulary up to the point of being able to read and analyze Greek texts with the help of a lexicon.
