Hello! My name is Alexandros, and I’m a passionate and experienced teacher of Ancient Greek and Greek history, with a degree from the University of Athens, specializing in Ancient Greek and Modern Greek Literature. I’ve been teaching for over 19 years, and my mission goes beyond helping students improve their grades—I strive to make learning a meaningful, personal, and enjoyable experience. Whether we’re exploring the dramas of Sophocles or the poetry of Cavafy, my goal is to bring the magic of Greek language and literature to life for every learner.
Ich als Lehrkraft
As a teacher, I’m known for being supportive, adaptable, and deeply engaged with my students. I tailor each session to the student’s strengths, weaknesses, and learning style. I help students develop critical thinking, not just memorize content. I offer continuous feedback and support even outside class hours, and I work closely with students to refine goals.
What makes my lessons special is the connection between language and culture. When we study Ancient Greek, we also explore the monuments, inscriptions, and daily life of the ancient world. I love bringing texts to life by linking them with real archaeological sites and historical context.
Meine Stunden und mein Unterrichtsstil
Each 60-minute lesson is structured, engaging, and customized:
• Introduction (10 minutes): We review previous material and set clear goals.
• Main segment (40 minutes): Includes a concise theory presentation (e.g., Homeric characters) and plenty of practice through exercises, creative writing, and discussion.
• Wrap-up (10 minutes): Q&A, clarification, and summary.
I use interactive methods—questions, dialogue, creative tasks—to keep lessons lively and effective. Whether you're a high school student preparing for exams or an adult looking to dive into classical texts, I’ll help you feel confident and curious about the journey ahead.

Very knowledgeable and experienced teacher! He knows the material like a true Native (which he is; he is an Athenian...) I felt like I was back in college -- I really miss properly learning things, and I want to go back to academia to study classics, so this was a good thing for me! I think it's best to learn a little modern Greek and familiarize myself with the basics like alphabet reading and grammar before signing up for the next class, but I definitely will within the month. I'm so excited to imagine finally being able to read Homer and Plato in the ancient Greek language 🤓🤩

Alexandros is THE teacher if you truly aim to learn Ancient Greek. The task is by no means easy, but he will go out of his way to support you in every possible way. Not only is he an expert in the Ancient Greek language and its nuances, but he is also deeply knowledgeable about the classical authors you may wish to study—such as Xenophon, Plato, and Homer. He meticulously prepares exercises tailored to your specific goals, whether that’s reading certain texts or refining grammar.
A lesson begins with a review of homework, and any mistakes are discussed in detail to ensure you learn from them. By the end of each session, you can be certain you’ve gained new knowledge, gradually shaping your understanding until what once looked like a string of mathematical symbols becomes clear and meaningful.
All in all, I highly recommend Alexandros’ expertise to anyone serious about learning Ancient Greek
