My name is Athanasios. I am a native Greek speaker, but I have also lived in the US and UK for a significant amount of time. Living back and forth between Greece and English-speaking countries has shaped a bilingual mind in me. Engaging in linguistics, chasing after etymological roots, and pondering over the definitions of words, are what fascinate me. I have an interest in Biblical Greek, Greek Philosophy, and having good explanatory communication that is insightful for the student is what I consider a skill of mine. Also, I like to bring the atmosphere of the class to a relaxed and easy feeling. Other hobbies include web designing, writing, researching, traveling, and reading.

I always enjoy lessons together. He works with me to find out what grammar phenomena I don’t understand and then we work on them together. Very personable and friendly to talk to and practice conversation. Ευχαριστώ πολύ!

Sakis is an excellent tutor. He is enthusiastic, energetic and patient. Whilst listed as a "community tutor", he is definitely professional. I thoroughly enjoy our lessons together and I can't wait for the next one!

Great and personable. If you're thinking of learning Greek (even from scratch), do yourself a favor and book a lesson. He takes his role as a teacher seriously, and it shows!

I had 17 hours of Greek lessons with Sakis and can wholeheartedly recommend him. The lessons are motivating, varied, and challenging in the right places. Sakis is very patient and explains everything in a friendly and understandable way. What I particularly appreciate is that the lesson content and methods are tailored exactly to my personal needs. Sakis picks up on individual questions and topics from previous lessons and continues to work on them with me. The lessons offer a good mix of grammar, reading, and practicing everyday communication. He is always responsive to questions and requests. Sakis is always optimistic and cheerful, making learning feel easy and enjoyable. I had a lot of fun so far, made progress, and am glad to have found such a great and motivating teacher! Thank you.

Athanasios did an excellent job assessing my level, describing the various options for helping me achieve those goals, and working with me to determine an initial approach for my first stage of learning.
