Vasilis Michos

Vasilis is a fantastically patient and enthusiastic teacher. He tailors his lessons and instruction to both your language-learning goals and your personal interests. Yet I think what really distinguishes his teaching style is his ability to bring his expertise in linguistics to your learning process, letting you "look under the hood" of a famously complex language like Greek in a way that clarifies things far more than I've ever encountered in a foreign language class. All those "why do you say it this way and not that way?"-type questions one has when studying a foreign language--he can actually answer them coherently. For me, this has made the study of Modern Greek way less intimidating and way more exciting. Highly recommended!

Again, nothing but the most positive recommendation for this wonderful teacher. Today we went over some useful constructions in Greek and some phrases that indicate how often I do or don’t do something. It is a great pleasure knowing that a skill is improving, and I feel my improvement in Greek couldn’t have been assisted by a better teacher. Highly recommend.

Vasilis continues to provide motivating material, making elements relevant to past lessons, creating a continuity of of learning. His style is not random, rather it is thoughtfully designed to help guide me along my journey. He builds upon my past accomplishments and provides material that bolsters me where my knowledge gaps are.

I was a little nervous about my first in person lesson and Vasilis put me at ease immediately. Not only that, but the quick easy explanations of greek grammar and structure were very clear and conveyed in an elegant manner that immediately improved my ability to speak. I wasn't sure what we could accomplish in 30 minutes for the trail lesson but I was very impressed and will be takin more classes.

La lezione si svolge attraverso: 1) libro consigliato dall'insegnante; 2) lavagna cpn appunti condivisa; 3) domande aperte

Fantastic first lesson with Vasilis. I have had many italki instructors and he is one of the best I’ve ever seen!
