My Ancient Greek class is fitting for learners at any level. Having studied Ancient Greek now for six years, not only in school but also at the Universities of Glasgow and Cambridge, I am extremely familiar with the language and its challenges. Using the Cambridge Reading Greek and Greek GCSE textbooks, adapted texts, and even "real" Greek literature where appropriate, I envisage Greek teaching and tutoring that focusses on the necessary aspects of grammar and rote language learning but supplements them with knowledge of Ancient Greek culture, history, and literature to make the language more alive and relevant. I am well-acquainted not only with the requirements of Greek learning at school, particularly for GCSEs, but also with the expectations of university Greek courses. A beginner will come to understand the fundamentals of the language, common vocabulary, and the "philosophy" that underlies grammatical forms and syntactical structures, an intermediate learner will come to grasp the more nuanced and trickier aspects of Greek grammar and reading, and an advanced learner will find confidence in reading Greek texts "in the wild" and the fluidity of translation and interpretation. Classes can be catered easily to the specific learning needs of any individual.

I can help you translate texts and review grammar and vocabulary. I'll give you tips to help you understand older texts more easily. Lessons can be scheduled as often as you like.

Sono un dottorando in Filologia Classica presso la Ruhr University Bochum e ho esperienza nell’insegnamento del latino e delle materie letterarie nella scuola superiore. Offro lezioni personalizzate di latino e greco antico rivolte a studenti delle scuole superiori, universitari e adulti. Le lezioni possono concentrarsi sul recupero delle lacune, sulla grammatica, sulla sintassi, sulla traduzione e sulla preparazione di verifiche, interrogazioni, esami di maturità ed esami universitari. Il mio metodo è chiaro, graduale e adattato alle esigenze di ogni studente. Partiamo dalle difficoltà specifiche e lavoriamo attraverso spiegazioni semplici, esempi ed esercizi mirati. L’obiettivo è comprendere meglio i testi, acquisire un metodo di traduzione efficace e diventare progressivamente autonomi nello studio.

Hello! My name is Alexandros, and I’m a professional, passionate, and experienced teacher of Ancient Greek, specializing in Ancient Greek Literature. I’ve been teaching for years, and I strive to make learning a meaningful, personal, and enjoyable experience. What makes my lessons truly special is the bridge I build between language and culture. While I teach all levels of Ancient Greek, I offer three specialized tracks that I am particularly passionate about: • Homeric Greek: Dive into the world of the heroes of the Iliad and Odyssey. • Platonic Greek: Explore the elegance of Attic prose and the philosophical depth of Socrates. • Koine Greek: Read the New Testament and Hellenistic texts in their original historical context.
