Greek Orthophony and Speech Training

From 46 € /h

A practical approach to Greek voice and speech: breath, articulation, rhythm, clarity, and expression.

We will work on pronunciation, tone, and the structure of spoken Greek, combining elements of orthophony, rhetoric, and conscious use of language.

With training in voice work since 2002 and experience as a voice-over artist since 2009, I have designed this course for Greek-speaking professionals who rely on their voice -public speakers, presenters, radio producers, teachers, lawyers, tour guides, actors- and for anyone who wants to speak Greek with confidence, precision, and natural flow.

Being aware of emotions allows better management of behavior in human relationships, both in the professional, private, entrepreneurial framework (...). For example, as a key to management, it makes it possible to:

Emotional intelligence is a process of personal development over time. This training allows you to initiate the process, with concrete tools that can be applied on a daily basis. This training combines group activities, individual reflections, videos and scenarios.

From theory to practice with simulations. It is a question of putting in place rational and professional tools to achieve the objectives set together and overcome the blockages initially defined.

Controlled, the techniques allow:

• to rely on emotional intelligence and capitalize on the empathy communicated to better ensure that his message is better received his message or being.

• improve credibility, self-confidence and ease (verbal-bodily) with public speaking and a more fluid sense of repartee.

• better manage negotiation situations (contrary to the stereotypes conveyed, negotiation is not only financial, but it can be small everyday events).

• Match the content and form of your message while improving the use of your emotional intelligence.

What you will get out of it:
• Better control of emotions and therefore of your way of communicating

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!

This class is designed for students who want to improve their Italian speaking skills and become more confident in conversation. As a native Italian speaker who grew up in Italy and now studies in the United States, I help students practice real-life communication in a relaxed and supportive environment. Lessons focus on fluency, pronunciation, vocabulary expansion, and natural conversation, using topics such as travel, culture, food, and everyday situations. Each lesson is adapted to the student’s level and goals so conversations feel engaging and productive. My background as a collegiate athlete and youth coach has helped me develop strong communication skills and patience when working with students. My goal is to help students speak more comfortably, improve their pronunciation, and sound more natural in Italian while enjoying the learning process.
