Teaching Greek as a foreign language to beginner, intermediate and advanced students

This course aims to provide students with a comprehensive understanding of the modern Greek language and culture. Throughout the course, we will focus on developing listening, reading, writing, and speaking skills, using contemporary Greek culture as a reference. Various homework exercises will be assigned to assess students' progress, with particular emphasis on grammar, syntax, and spelling. The goal is to help students expand their vocabulary and effectively use it to construct grammatically accurate phrases and sentences.

To accommodate diverse learning styles, we will explore different teaching methods, such as listening to songs, watching YouTube videos and listening to Spotify podcasts, reading excerpts from Greek texts, and utilizing online teaching tools like Mentimeter and Quizlet. The aim is to cater to the unique needs of each student and make the learning experience engaging and enjoyable. Regardless of your background, I am here to guide you through this captivating linguistic and cultural journey into the Greek language and culture.

Extra information

The lessons will be conducted in the MS Teams platform, or Google Meet.
The students can (but are not obliged to) download or create an account to the multiple platforms we will be using (Google Drive, Mentimeter etc).
The students should be ready to use their mobile phone when asked to, by the teacher, to participate in online activities in real time.

About Me

I have enjoyed teaching ever since my time as a student at the University of Athens. This passion was further developed during my Erasmus+ Traineeship as a teacher of Greek as a second language, and while earning my Master's degree in Linguistics at Leiden University.

By sharing my knowledge and expertise, I aim to broaden my students' horizons and encourage them to explore new linguistic domains in life, with a focus on language learning.

In addition to teaching, I also have a keen interest in studying humorous elements in Greek texts from a linguistic perspective. Get ready to explore humorous representations of Greek daily life through memes and funny videos in my class.

Aside from work, I also enjoy watching anime, reading manga, and staying active. I encourage students to discuss these topics in Greek during our classes, as it's a great way for us to get to know each other better and have more engaging discussions!

Reviews (1)

I have already had my first lesson with Nikos and he really is a good teacher. He was very attentive to my goals and to my way of learning, asking me several times if I were enjoying. Of course, I'll continue learning with him.
This course provides a comprehensive introduction to linguistics, covering key areas such as phonetics, syntax, semantics, pragmatics, and morphology. Related fields include sociolinguistics, argumentation, rhetoric, and methods of conducting research in applied linguistics. Students will explore the structure, sound, and meaning of language, gaining insight into how language interacts with cognition, cultural identity, and social dynamics. Through analysis and critical discussion, this course offers essential foundational knowledge for understanding language as a complex, multifaceted human phenomenon. Additionally, the students have the possibility of delving to the essentials of writing an essay in linguistics, by examining the different parts of a linguistic essay, the way of academic writing and matters of validity and ethics while conducting linguistic experiments. The course includes the following topics: 1. Introduction to Linguistics 2. The five levels of linguistic analysis (Morphology, Phonetics-Phonology, Syntax, Semantics, Pragmatics) 3. Related linguistic fields (such as Historical Linguistics, Sociolinguistics, Argumentation, Rhetoric, History of Linguistics, Psycholinguistics) 4. How to conduct research in applied linguistics (using methods like questionnaires, interviews, qualitative content analysis, grounded theory, etc.) 5. Applied linguistics: Teaching a language (Teaching a native language as a foreign one). 6. How to write a linguistics essay (Parts of an essay, argumentation-academic writing, validity, ethics).

Private online mathematics lessons - Qualified and experienced teacher
I am a qualified and experienced mathematics tutor. Graduated from the Free University of Brussels in 2011, I started my career by teaching remedial courses in different schools in Brussels. I then specialized in individual academic support by following educational training at the Harvard Graduate School of Education. I have been giving private mathematics lessons daily for over ten years. The students who follow my private lessons benefit from personalized support. The first session is devoted to an in-depth assessment of the student's mathematical knowledge. The objective is to detect its weak points and understand their origin in order to adapt my courses to its needs. I develop a tailor-made remediation program for each of my students aimed at filling each of their gaps. Over the course of the sessions, the student builds a solid foundation for learning and regains self-confidence. At the same time, I help him acquire a work methodology that allows him to gradually become autonomous in his studies. I have a perfect knowledge of the mathematics program of the College and the High School (from the Sixth to the Terminale). During my formative years, I studied and developed many techniques that make it easier to learn math. The strength of my pedagogical approach lies in my ability to explain in a simple way everything that the student finds complicated. I am passionate about this job because it gives me the opportunity to guide dropout students on the path to success. It is a real pleasure to see them evolve and come to terms with the fantastic world of mathematics. I provide my private lessons in Limoges (at the student's home) or remotely (online via the internet). My distance learning courses take place on an interactive online whiteboard. This board is specially designed to promote student/teacher interaction on the internet. Thanks to this educational tool, my online courses are as effective as home courses. The student only needs an internet connection and a computer, tablet, or smartphone to take advantage of it.

Memorizing the Holy Quran and learning how to read it correctly according to the guidance of the Prophet, may God bless him and grant him peace, along with studying the science of Tajweed, which is considered one of the most honorable sciences.
The Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace, said: “The best of you is he who learns the Qur’an and teaches it.” In this episode, God willing, we will be able to learn the correct pronunciation of the Holy Quran, taking into account the rules of Tajweed, with a review and a simplified interpretation of the Quranic verses to enable us to memorize it, along with an explanation of some of the rules of Tajweed. As for children, some simple etiquette and educational principles are explained to them, appropriate to their abilities, and a very simplified explanation of the Quranic verses is given, along with their recitation in a non-boring manner, until the student leaves the class having memorized 60% of his portion, God willing.
