EditLearn to read, write and pronounce Greek
These propaedeutic lessons will teach you the Greek alphabet and its sounds step by step. After the first lesson you will already be able to read some Greek words. Students who can already read, write and pronounce any Greek word (without necessarily understanding it) can safely ignore these lessons and start with the actual course.
EditLessons for beginners
In order to do the following lessons you need not have any previous knowledge of Greek, however it is assumed that you can already read, write and pronounce Greek (as taught in the course above). When complete, the lessons in this course will lead you up to level A1 of the European Reference Framework for Languages.
The old course needs rewriting. Please help. The lesson plan for the new course can be found at
Modern Greek Lesson plan.
