    About Me

    Yia sas! Hello everyone! I'm Anna, originally from Corfu, Greece. I’ve been calling England home for over 20 years now, and this has given me a deep understanding of the language, culture, and the unique atmosphere of the country. As a native Greek speaker with a passion for languages and teaching, I bring both experience and enthusiasm to our lessons. Having grown up surrounded by Greek culture and being fluent in both Greek and English, I can easily help bridge the two languages.

    Although Greek may seem challenging due to its different alphabet, complex grammar, and pronunciation, it is certainly achievable with dedication and consistent practice. A common question among students is how long it will take to speak and hold a conversation, and how many lessons are needed to reach that point.
    There’s no "one-size-fits-all" answer to this, as learning Greek varies by individual. Some learners may reach basic conversational skills within a few months of focused study, while others might need a year or more to get to the same level. Progress depends on factors like your learning style, previous language experience, and how much time you can dedicate to study.
    Many students choose to take 2-3 lessons per week if their schedule allows, which helps maintain steady progress while balancing other commitments. Others may start with just one lesson per week and gradually increase as they gain confidence in the language. These are general guidelines, as results will vary based on personal circumstances.
    Remember, learning a language is a gradual process that can include ups and downs, so it’s important to stay patient, be kind to yourself, set realistic goals, and practice consistently to keep progressing.
    In my spare time, I enjoy taking walks by the river, reading a good book, watching films, cooking, and continuing to educate myself. I’m also still taking lessons in French and Italian to further my language skills.

    What to Expect from a Lesson with Me:
    Many people agree that the best way to learn a language is by immersing yourself in a country where it’s spoken. Since this isn’t always possible, the next best way is through interactive and engaging conversations. I believe in creating a supportive and engaging learning environment where students feel comfortable to practice and make mistakes. My lessons offer a relaxed, and supportive environment where mistakes are celebrated as part of the learning process. Learning should be enjoyable and motivating, so expect books, level-appropriate short stories, lively discussions, and plenty of laughter!
    In our first session, I will assess your language level through casual conversation and work with you to create a personalized, goal-oriented approach that aligns with your objectives in Greek.
    For Complete Beginners:
    If you are starting from scratch, our initial lessons will focus on the basics:
    • Learning to read and understand the sounds of the Greek alphabet
    • Combining syllables to form words
    • Using articles
    • Engaging in simple greetings and conversations, gradually progressing to more complex interactions
    Greek for Holidays:
    If you're planning a trip to Greece, we’ll tailor lessons to prepare you for real-life situations. You'll learn how to:
    • Introduce yourself in Greek
    • Order your favorite food or drink
    • Ask for directions, and more!
    Conversational Greek:
    We will focus on topics that interest you, having discussions about your favorite subjects to improve your fluency.
    Greek for Advanced Speakers & Exam Preparation:
    If you’re preparing for the Greek language certification exams, expect structured and intensive lessons. We will cover grammar, listening, and speaking practice. You’ll also become familiar with colloquial expressions, idioms, Greek mythology, literature, music, and more.

    Learning a new language opens up a world of possibilities and opportunities. All it takes is patience and the desire to learn. So why wait? Bring onboard your enthusiasm, and let’s get started! I’d love to meet you and see if we hit it off. Looking forward to seeing you soon in my class!"

    Experience / Qualifications

    Teaching isn't just about grammar and vocabulary; it's about connecting with people and understanding their individual needs. With 25 years of experience teaching both Greek and English, let me tell you! It has been an incredible journey! I've had the privilege of teaching Greek to learners from all walks of life, whether they were planning a brief visit to Greece, relocating for work, or settling there permanently. In teaching English, I've worked with adults focused on advancing their careers, as well as children and young adults preparing for exams and language certifications. I teach both Greek and English in French, English, or Italian. Like many, I recognise the personal and professional value of learning a foreign language, along with the challenges that come with it.

    Learn (modern) Greek for everyday use, university, tourism with FUN and passion / (ancient) Greek for school and university
    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.
