Learn (modern) Greek for everyday use, university, tourism with FUN and passion / (ancient) Greek for school and university

From 52 £ /h

I am a native speaker of Greek. I graduated from a Greek high school and, later, the University of Athens where I attended courses in pedagogics, psychology, and linguistics.

During our lessons, I'll help you develop your skills (oral/written, and not only). I'll also try to help you improve your pronunciation and spelling. I assign homework and after I receive it, correct it thoroughly additionally providing a lot of remarks/examples if they are necessary.

I worked at a language center between 2009-2016 where I was a director of studies and taught mainly English as a foreign/second language. Since 2005, when I first started teaching Greek, I have taught children and adults on a variety of language proficiency levels, mainly individually.

I constantly seek progress, meaning that I study further through reading books/articles concerning didactics/methodology and learning difficulties (chiefly dyslexia), observing other teachers as well as attending seminars (online or face-to-face).

During my lessons I use :
- Skype/Whatsapp/Messenger to connect with you,
- Google Docs to keep notes, which you can check at any time and they are yours to keep,
- sketch board me to make mind maps to show connections between ideas, etc.
- books, PPP, word docs, diagrams, pics, etc.
- pronunciation/spelling/grammar games,
- authentic materials were taken from websites.

I adore my profession and desire each and every one of my students be satisfied with the lesson. That's why I make sure the atmosphere is stress-free and nice. I also want my lessons to be as effective and close to real-life needs as possible. Therefore, I make sure they are well-prepared, although they can be altered at any point, should such an opportunity arise. I like explaining things in a variety of ways as well as make use of dictionaries, diagrams, etc. When it comes to students who want to obtain certificates, I am very demanding.

What can I teach?
- I would love to help you improve/develop all language skills (speaking/writing-listening/reading + grammar/vocabulary/pronunciation),
- I would love to help you prepare for state certificates such as A1, A2, B1, B2, C1, C2.
- I would love to help you with homework and assignments (literature, history) from school and university (but please contact me about that IN ADVANCE).

Regarding Ancient Greek, I can help you with commentaries/translations/grammar/syntax:
- Socrates, Plato, Aristotle,
- Homer, Aeschylus, Euripides, Sophocles, Sappho,
- Herodotus, Thucydides, Xenophon.

About Me

I am passionate about teaching and you will see it in the course of our lessons as they will be fun, yet very effective and as close to real life as possible. I am multilingual which means I have learned a lot of languages and this, in turns, helps me spot/understand the troublesome parts you will probably be going through - and I will do my best to facilitate it for you.

I am scholastic when it comes to correcting HW and leave a lot of comments, so you can understand what you did wrong.

I use a variety of materials (books/articles/youtube/quizlet, etc.) in the teaching process.
I have helped a lot of students achieve their goals (prepare efficiently for an interview, get FCE/CPE/IELTS, etc.) or simply have an interesting conversation with the view to improving pronunciation/grammar.

During the lesson we can use Skype/WhatsApp or any other communicator and Google Docs simultaneously for notes.

Passionate about history, I am at your disposal for any help you would need for the writing of your presentations, end of studies and dissertations in EDM / geography / human sciences and French. Favoring efficiency, I restructure and correct your texts (or your courses) to make your subjects as alive as possible. All seriously, but always in a good mood.

I commit myself to correct you and to send the tests regularly after having fixed a schedule of work. But you remain responsible and master of your TFE / memory. In my opinion, teamwork remains the key to success.

If you have any questions, do not hesitate to contact me, I will answer in all circumstances!

I offer classes on History, Geography, and Political Science, with over 11 years' of experience in these subjects, both professionally and academically. I hold Bachelor's Degrees in both History and Political Science (from the University of Florida), as well as a Master's in Political Science, specifically European Politics (from KU Leuven).

I have extensive experience in a wide range of historical and political subjects and have always had a keen interest in history and the social sciences. Additionally, previously I have been a journalist (dealing with Competition Law) and currently am an editor working on a wide variety of subjects for organizations such as the UNHCR and Goethe Institut, among others.

I am capable of teaching and lecturing on numerous historical and political events and periods in history, with myself having specialized in European history, American history, African history, as well as the Medieval period and Antiquity.

Learn the methodology in dissertation and document analysis from middle school as well as high school.
This is what is present in History Geography and in the HGGSP specialty, and I offer courses aimed, in addition to helping the learning of courses in these subjects, to put it into practice in an exercise with a built methodology. It is this methodology that I teach, in order to provide the student with independence.
I can also provide homework help in these classes, as well as re-explain and repeat poorly understood course points.
As for speaking in public, it is necessary for the oral exams at the end of high school. I have been part of a debate group for 3 years and have acquired a certain mastery there.
I am a student in high school, in the final year and I already have experience in helping with homework in my high school. I also chose the HGGSP specialty (geopolitics and political science) in second and I obtained my baccalaureate in this subject.

I adapt to the profile of each intern or student according to their objective and level.
The goal is not to work endless hours, but to show how to be able to work alone or partially independently in a short time.
It is always a pleasure for me to be recognized in the street 15 years after classes, and to be thanked for having provided a real service to the person concerned.
This activity is a passion of mine that I have been pursuing since I was 16 years old.
I hope to be able to share it with you to prepare effectively, by significantly reducing your legitimate apprehension of exams.

The authenticity of an exchange. In a society increasingly rooted in a competitive approach, where automated exchanges with Artificial Intelligence cannot replace the need for human interaction, this is precisely what we lack.
As a lawyer by training and an independent legal consultant, creating "Le Droit" is a breath of fresh air. This private tutoring service is aimed directly at students and any adult who needs to overcome difficulties in studying the following subjects: French, Mathematics, Sciences, Philosophy, History, and Languages (English and Spanish). To be clear, these subjects will be studied up to the Baccalaureate level (General/Technological/Vocational).

Moreover, being currently preparing for the entrance exam to the National School of Magistrates and passionate about the beauty of multidisciplinary learning, the school program is being reviewed extremely regularly.

🎓 It is now necessary to elaborate somewhat on my experience:
4 years already dedicated to private lessons (which is significant) via the organization Complétude as well as independently (Law, French, Mathematics, Sciences, History and Languages), and this at all levels (primary, middle school, high school, university students and adults).

Regarding my teaching experience in legal subjects, I invite you to consult my other course offering dedicated to this subject and also published on Apprentus.

👋 What about my teaching approach, you might ask?
Beyond this desire for authenticity, it seems particularly important to dismantle the prejudices that poison the perception of students experiencing difficulties. To ensure the smooth running of this course and so that the student or adult feels as comfortable as possible, it is worth remembering that the foundation of all conversation and understanding remains listening. Listening to one's equal, regardless of age.

💬 Wouldn't you be interested?
Please feel free to contact me by message and I remain available to discuss the frequency of classes and their modalities (in-person in Tours, videoconference and possibility of travel if necessary).

In the meantime, ladies and gentlemen, students or interested individuals, it would be a real pleasure for me to accompany you as best I can on your path to success because, as its name indicates: you all have the Right to Knowledge! 😉

I work with students aged 7–19, using cards, bingo, online games and other creative activities to help them learn and remember new vocabulary, improve their speaking skills and become more confident in using English.

I also support middle and high school students in international schools with IGCSE, A-level and IB English, Literature and History. In addition, I work with adult learners, adapting lessons to their individual goals and level.

My goal is to make History feel less like an endless list of dates and names, and help you understand what happened, why it happened, and how different events are connected.

We’ll work with clear explanations, diagrams, examples, and practical techniques to prepare for exams and structure your answers effectively. I adapt each lesson to the pace and needs of every student.

The idea is that you feel comfortable asking as many questions as you need and finish each lesson genuinely understanding the subject.

And on top of that, I have a C1 level in English!

Fun and friendly classes, tailored to everyone! 📚✨

Learn, progress and gain self-confidence, all in a relaxed and supportive atmosphere!

I offer French, history-geography, and English lessons tailored to each student's level, goals, and needs. Whether it's to understand a concept, regain confidence, prepare for a test, improve study methods, or simply progress at your own pace, we will move forward together, step by step.

No pressure or monotonous lessons: the goal is to create a space where you can ask questions, make mistakes without fear, and learn in a fun and relaxed atmosphere. 😊

Each session will be personalized to the student: their difficulties, strengths, learning style, and goals. I therefore adapt to each student's pace to ensure that the lessons are effective, enjoyable, and motivating.

The idea is simple: make serious progress, without taking yourself too seriously! 🌟

Hi! I’m a native Greek speaker and I’d love to help you learn or improve your Greek.

Whether you’re a complete beginner, already know some Greek, or simply want to get more comfortable speaking, we can adapt the lessons to what you actually need.

I like keeping things easy-going and practical, rather than making every lesson feel like a traditional classroom. We focus on conversation, everyday Greek, understanding Greek culture and expressions, pronunciation, vocabulary, grammar, or anything else you’d like to learn or improve.

Most importantly, there’s no pressure - the Greek style! I focus on progress, I want you to feel comfortable asking questions, making mistakes and simply enjoying the process of learning Greek.

Looking forward to meeting you and helping you discover Greek! 😊
