I greatly enjoy breaking words down and explaining how my language works: I really need to get a life. I teach through context, exposing students to stories *very* early on, while sneakily increasing the amount of Greek spoken in class. My students are encouraged to produce their own texts and utterances once they are able to read, and get trained to need me less and less. I like linguistic comparisons, capitalising on languages a learner speaks, and explaining Greek through familiar structures.

What I really love about these lessons is that there is no book involved. It's a lot about me asking thousands of questions and Yorgos being ready with as many sources of good tailored material that answer my questions and help me remember words and structures. Memes are a golden addition! His background in Italian language and Ancient Greek allow him to explain to me things from a different etymological perspective, adding so much richness to the lexicon I learn. He never judges and he positively reinforces all the progress you make, encouraging you to have conversations and make mistakes in order to grow. Bravo!

Another great session with Yorgos! Yorgos' passion for linguistics and knowledge of various languages has helped immensely when breaking down and explaining various parts of the greek language. Very easy to talk to - I can recommend fully!

Ο Γιώργος είναι ένας πολύ καλός δάσκαλος. Είναι υπομονετικός και έξυπνος, και ξέρει πολύ από η γλώσσα ελληνική. Δουλεύει πολύ από τα μαθήματα για να προετοιμάζει. Ευχαριστώ Υιωργο !

I am a linguist, currently studying a Master’s in Indo-European linguistics at the University of Leiden. I wanted to improve on my spoken abilities in Greek, which was already at a high level, and I was extremely fortunate to come across Γιώργος, who is not only a great teacher, but a qualified linguist, with great passion and understanding for languages, as well as real pedagogical skills. His vast experience in languages makes him be adaptable to students of all levels. He uses a variety of materials for class, some of which he has written himself, but not only, and never falls short of recommendations for good audio or video materials in Greek suited to the needs of his students. On top of that, he is a wonderful person, who makes you feel comfortable while speaking. Totally recommended !

Learning Greek with Γιώργος has been a very enriching experience. His depth of knowledge and meticulous preparation make each lesson an opportunity for genuine learning and growth. Unlike conventional teaching approaches, his method is both profound and comprehensive, ensuring that every linguistic nuance is explored with clarity and precision. Beyond his expertise, he is a very interesting and engaging person. His breadth of knowledge across a wide range of topics naturally enriches conversations, making each class not just an academic exercise but an inspiring exchange of ideas.
