Modern Greek from the perspective of a native. Are you ready? Πάμε!!

Van 17.93 $ /h

Hello Linguophiles 👋✨️

My name is Despoina, I’m of Greek origin, and Greek is my mother tongue. Friends and family call me Debbie, so that’s how you’re going to call me too! 😊

I hold a degree in psychology and am a licensed professional in Greece, currently pursuing my MSc in Health Psychology!

I love learning new languages and exploring different cultures and perspectives. I have a B2 certificate in Spanish, and I’m currently learning Korean. If you’re a linguophile like me and would like to learn Modern Greek, you’re in the right place!

About the Classes:

Classes are designed for all levels, and together, we’ll cover different aspects of the Greek language, including:

📝The Greek alphabet
📝Grammar rules
📝Vocabulary

⚠️Important Note:

Since I’m not a certified Greek language teacher but a native speaker, I will teach you Modern Greek from the perspective of a native. The focus will be on speaking practice (writing can also be taught), and building vocabulary to help you understand everyday conversations and express yourself with ease. If you aim for casual learning of the language I can also assist you.

If you already have a good knowledge of Modern Greek and just want to sharpen your skills, I can help you with extra speaking practice and answer any grammar questions to improve the flow of your speech and deepen your understanding.

Unlocking the mind: A Deep Dive into Psychology. Classes for anyone interested in the science of psychology. Are you ready? Let's start!

23.91 $ /h

Hello, psychophiles! 👋

My name is Despoina, and I’m of Greek origin. Friends and family call me Debbie, so that’s how you’re going to call me too! 😊 I hold a degree in psychology and am a licensed professional in Greece, currently pursuing my MSc in Health Psychology!

I may have limited tutoring experience, but what I bring to the table is my limitless passion for psychology. My strong academic background, participation in several seminars (depression and psychotherapy, analytic group psychotherapy, somatic illnesses, etc.), as well as my internships (A21, Center for Talented Youth – CTY), have allowed me to explore psychology in greater depth and gain hands-on experience and valuable knowledge.

Are you curious about why people think, feel, and behave the way they do? Welcome to Unlocking the Mind, an engaging and thought-provoking psychology course designed for students (and not only!) eager to explore the depths of human behavior.

Psychology isn’t just a subject—it’s a window into understanding ourselves and the world around us. In this course, we’ll dive into various branches of psychology, from cognitive and behavioral to clinical and social, uncovering the fascinating mechanisms behind emotions, decision-making, memory, and personality.

But this isn’t your average lecture-style class! Expect dynamic discussions, real-world applications, and an interactive learning experience featuring educational videos, movie analyses, and thought-provoking case studies. I’ll also recommend must-read books to deepen your understanding of the field.

Whether you’re new to psychology or looking to expand your knowledge, this course will challenge your thinking and provide you with invaluable insights into the human mind. Classes will be tailored to your needs, ensuring a personalized and enriching experience.

In addition to the core topics, I’m also happy to assist with exam preparation, psychology assignments, or simply answer any questions you have about the field. If you love discussing psychology as much as I do, let’s dive into engaging conversations and explore the subject together!

Let’s explore the science of psychology together—because understanding the mind is the key to unlocking endless possibilities! 🧠📝💡✨

Greek Reading Class: Practice reading through engaging material prepared with love from a native Greek tutor :)

31.08 $ /h

Hello learners :) I've been working as a Greek tutor for almost a year now, and I'm excited to launch my new project: Greek Reading class! If you already know how to read in Greek, and you just need some extra engaging and stimulating reading practice to either upgrade your level or just enhance your vocabulary and boost your confidence while reading Greek, this class is for you! In each class you'll be given the chance to practice reading though different stories, articles, book chapters etc. This class is not limited to just reading, but together we'll try to translate any written text and engage in either small and guided discussion or "choose the correct answer" type of questions. In this way, I'm aiming to boost each student's confidence regarding Greek comprehension.

Why this class is best for you?:
As a foreign language learner myself, I know that practicing reading can be a bit demanding and time consuming, due to our everyday responsibilities! But with this class is a guarantee that you'll be dedicating at least one hour per week to practice reading with low effort (material will be provided + guidance by me).

If that class speaks to you I'm more than glad to get to know you and practice reading together!

My name is Serdane and I offer ancient language courses to secondary school students who may have difficulty developing a working method that suits them. Extroverted and bubbly...and above all, a lot of humor!

Everyone learns in their own way. This is why I do not adopt a rigid method, but rather I adapt to the specificities of each student. I assess their level, their strengths, any weaknesses or delays, and I adjust my course accordingly. My priority is to restore the student's confidence: Latin and Greek are accessible to everyone when they are well explained!

I believe in the effectiveness of active teaching methods: I encourage maximum student participation, guiding them to discover what works best for them. This allows him to continue his learning independently.

Finally, I provide specific help for the preparation of questions or exams in more complex subjects.

My price includes full tutoring (private lessons, possibility of asking questions outside of class hours, assistance with writing and correcting questions, etc.).

Hello! My name is Pelagia, and I currently live in Amsterdam, though I am originally from Athens, Greece.

I am a certified and experienced Greek language teacher with over 10 years of teaching in both Greece and the Netherlands. My teaching experience spans a wide range of students, from beginners to advanced learners, in both classroom settings and private lessons. Over the years, I have developed and implemented modern teaching methods, with a strong focus on gamification and innovative teaching approaches to make language learning not only effective but also enjoyable and engaging.

My methodology emphasizes the development of communicative skills while strengthening grammar and vocabulary through creative and interactive techniques. I utilize a variety of educational tools, including interactive exercises, games, and modern technologies, to help students achieve their learning goals effectively.

In addition to teaching the Greek language, I offer lessons in Greek history, using carefully curated educational videos to bring ancient Greek history to life and deepen students' understanding of its rich cultural heritage.

Let's embark on an exciting journey to master the Greek language together!

Looking for a highly experienced tutor for Ancient Greek and/or Latin lessons? Then you've come to the right place! I'm a former economics teacher with a first-degree teaching qualification who, since 2021, has dedicated myself entirely to tutoring various subjects. I did this because it allows me to do what I love most: explaining material, building student confidence, and working together to improve grades. This way, I've helped around 200 students achieve passing grades or even pass their exams over the past few years.

So, while I'm a former economics teacher, my language skills make me a great tutor in Greek and Latin if you're still in the lower grades. I'm especially good at translating, if I do say so myself. :) I got a 9 out of 10 in Greek in high school (pre-university education). I took Latin up to and including the fifth year of pre-university education (VWO) and then had to drop it because I had too many subjects. But the languages are very similar, so I can definitely help you with Latin as well.

The structure of the tutoring is always determined in consultation, but generally, I'm a big fan of starting on assignments as soon as possible. Why? Because then I can quickly see what you can already do and what you're still struggling with. I help with that. This way, I avoid unnecessary explanations of things you already know. Moreover, you can then immediately apply the explanations you do need to an assignment. This way, the material sticks much better.

By the way, if you prefer tutoring at home, but I live too far away, consider trying online tutoring. I'm very experienced in that. I always give online tutoring via Google Meet, using a digital whiteboard where I can draw, color, paste, and type. This way, I can explain/demonstrate everything perfectly. I then share everything I've written on the whiteboard with you via WhatsApp so you can review all the explanations and solutions at your leisure after the lesson. Super convenient!

Finally, if I had to describe myself in a few words, they would be: knowledgeable, calm, reliable, approachable, committed and tidy.

These classes are primarily intended to support secondary school students. Translating together, looking at grammar together - those are the things we can do in class. I prefer to teach classes in the evening or at the weekend. I'm really trying to help!

Greek language courses for people who would like to learn modern Greek from scratch, but also for people who would love to improve their Greek language skills and accompany it with their school or work schedule. The use of communicative approach in combination with grammar is incorporated in the lessons in order to build a strong base, learn the language in depth and gain better a understanding.

Greek teacher with four years of professional experience in education. Able to help students learn and hone their skills in the use of the modern and ancient Greek language, understand the mechanics and use of the language to their advantage, through reading, listening and speaking. Encouraging the reading of Greek literature to improve critical thinking and linguistic acuity. Undoubtedly ancient Greek culture has had a profound influence on modern Greek thought and culture. Its teaching contributes to a deeper understanding of the history of a very distant era. My goal is to pique the interest of every student. After the lesson, teaching materials with theory and consolidation exercises are assigned.

Mijn succesvolle vakantiecursus is in maart 2026 weer online te volgen!

In 5 lessen (van 1,5 uur via Zoom) leer je alles wat je op vakantie nodig hebt om de Grieken te kunnen begroeten, je eten en drinken te bestellen, de rekening te betalen, te vertellen waar je vandaan komt en nog veel meer. Ook leer je het alfabet zodat je alles kunt lezen en krijg je informatie over de cultuur (bijvoorbeeld welke gebaren je wel en vooral níet moet maken) en de geschiedenis van Griekenland.

Na die 5 lessen kun je kleine gesprekjes voeren, en omdat de Grieken het zó waarderen dat jij moeite doet om hun taal te spreken, wordt jouw vakantie zoveel leuker! Er gaan letterlijk en figuurlijk deuren open!
