I’ve been learning Greek with Thanasis for a few lessons now, and I'm really impressed with his approach. He has a direct teaching style but makes it engaging by using a variety of materials - text, images, and even audio samples - which really helps things click. Plus, he's super friendly and patient, which makes learning a lot more enjoyable. Even in just a few sessions, I feel like I’m starting to grasp the basics and how to actually use words in conversation. Definitely recommend him as a teacher!

I highly recommend Thanasis to anyone who is learning Greek. I have been trying for years to get the hang of the language and over and over again I was discouraged. Thanasis' approach is thorough and simple enough that you don't feel discouraged. Before you know it, you have confidence and are putting sentences together!
I am a language teacher myself, so I know that practice is the KEY to learning a new language. Sessions with Thanasis are just want I needed to get to jump start my journey with the Greek language. The language can be a bit intimidating, but you just have to go for it and soon enough you feel comfortable with it.
