(EN) Thinking of moving to Greece or just fascinated by the Greek language? Then this course is for you! In these classes you will be introduced to the fundamentals of Modern Greek through developing written, oral, reading and listening skills. Learn how to converse in every day situations, write an email, or listen to the news and cultivate your appreciation of Greek culture.

My teaching philosophy centres around the premise that learning should be fun. Through encouraging a creative, interactive and engaging environment, students are motivated to explore their own individual relationships with their target language, allowing them to become confident speakers.

Let's meet and discuss your linguistic goals and aspirations. It would be my honour to help you achieve them!


(GR) Σκέφτεστε να μετακομίσετε στην Ελλάδα ή απλώς γοητεύεστε από την ελληνική γλώσσα; Τότε αυτό το μάθημα είναι για εσάς! Σε αυτά τα μαθήματα θα μυηθείτε στις βασικές αρχές της Νέας Ελληνικής με την ανάπτυξη δεξιοτήτων γραπτού, προφορικού, ανάγνωσης και ακρόασης. Μάθετε πώς να συνομιλείτε σε καθημερινές καταστάσεις, να γράφετε ένα email ή να ακούτε τις ειδήσεις και να καλλιεργήσετε την εκτίμησή σας για τον ελληνικό πολιτισμό.

Η διδακτική μου φιλοσοφία επικεντρώνεται στην αρχή ότι η μάθηση οφείλει να είναι διασκεδαστική. Μέσω της ενθάρρυνσης ενός δημιουργικού, διαδραστικού και ελκυστικού περιβάλλοντος, οι μαθητές παρακινούνται να εξερευνήσουν τις ατομικές τους σχέσεις με τη γλώσσα-στόχο τους, επιτρέποντάς τους να γίνουν ομιλητές με αυτοπεποίθηση.

Ανυπομονώ να σας γνωρίσω και να συζητήσουμε τους γλωσσικούς σας στόχους και φιλοδοξίες. Θα ήταν τιμή μου να σας βοηθήσω να τα πετύχετε!

In this class, you will build confidence in understanding, speaking and writing in English. I love incorporating interdisciplinary methods in my classes, through games, music and fun activities, reinforcing the aspect of learned experience. This will be done by:
-Using interactive audiovisual materials
-Reading articles and texts that are relevant to your interests
-Encouraging you to bring your own experience to the lesson

If your needs are specific to a particular field (e.g. Academic English, English for Business), then the lesson materials will be shaped to your learning needs and requirements.

Proofreading is one of the most labour-intensive and tedious stages in the writing process. But this final stage of writing can make the difference between a good and an amazing essay.

This class will help give you a second pair of eyes to correct, refine and polish your essay or thesis at any stage of the writing process. Gain insight into the research procedure, synthesis and citation, as well as use of appropriate language.

Citation styles: MLA, APA, Harvard

Hello, my name is Eva, and I hail from the stunning country of Greece. However, for the past 17 years, I have been residing abroad, embracing diverse cultures and experiences that have enriched my perspective on life. With almost more than a decade of experience as a flight attendant, I've encountered both the joys and difficulties of language barriers. These experiences have fueled my passion for effective communication and intercultural understanding.

Before transitioning to my current role, I earned certifications in TEFL (Teaching English as a Foreign Language) and Family Engagement in Education from Harvard University. These credentials have equipped me with the skills to foster inclusive and supportive learning environments. My academic background has also provided me with a deep understanding of educational methodologies and the importance of engaging families in the educational process.

Presently, I work as a Secondary School teacher, specializing in Social Studies and Literature. In my classroom, I strive to create a dynamic and interactive learning atmosphere where students feel empowered to explore, question, and connect with the material on a deeper level. I am a firm believer in the transformative impact of education and strive to open doors to the world for my students through the power of learning. By incorporating diverse perspectives and fostering critical thinking, I aim to prepare my students to become informed and active global citizens.

In addition to my teaching role, I am also passionate about translation work. I have extensive experience translating books and websites, which allows me to bridge language gaps and make content accessible to a wider audience. This work has deepened my appreciation for the nuances of language and the importance of cultural context in communication.

Outside of the classroom, I enjoy traveling, reading, and immersing myself in different cultures. These passions not only enrich my personal life but also enhance my teaching, allowing me to bring real-world experiences into my lessons. I am dedicated to continuous learning and professional development, always seeking new ways to inspire and engage my students. Through education, I hope to make a lasting impact and contribute to a more interconnected and understanding world.
