(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.
