Hello! Γεια σας! Merhaba! I am Panos. I am half Greek half Turkish and grew up native in Greek and Turkish languages. I have always loved learning languages (I speak English fluently as well as some Italian and French). I hold a MA in International Relations from the University of Oxford. I love traveling and meeting new people, learning about different cultures, customs and cuisines. I love talking about art, music, politics, and linguistics!

Me as a Teacher
I am new to italki but I teach Greek and Turkish as a side-profession since I was 18 years old (for more than 15 years now). I have taken numerous courses regarding teaching and linguistics. I have a student-centered, flexible and interactive approach. I put a lot of emphasis on speaking and listening skills. I use solid, daily life examples and real-life situations to help my students grasp how the Greek/Turkish languages work, how Greeks/Turks think and how to apply it to their own experience. I have acquired a substantial set of techniques during my teaching experience. I have taught adults, children and groups.
My lessons & teaching style
I adapt my curriculum to the needs, age and profile of each student. I have had dozens of students from many countries, and across all ages, children to seniors. I believe that learning a language is more than just memorizing or learning grammar. I transfer my knowledge of Greek/Turkish languages and cultures to my students so that they can learn the language as well as the culture. I always aim to ensure that my students enjoy the lessons and find them interesting.

I had a fantastic first Greek lesson with Panos. He listened to my goals, assessed my level and then we started practicing right away. Not only is he so professional and encouraging but he is also a genuinely lovely person. He took my interests into account for future lessons, a detail which I really appreciate. As exercise material, we used a textbook and I also got assigned to write a paragraph as homework. An added bonus is that Panos speaks both Turkish (he is bilingual!) and English so he can adapt to my translations in both. Ευχαριστώ παρά πολύ and I look forward to our future lessons!

It was a really nice lesson with Panos!! He is very supportive, patient, we already speak Turkish as much as possible during the lesson, he provides material for studying and also we have fun!
I look forward to our next lesson 👩🏼💻😊

Panos has been great so far, interesting conversations where I’m learning a lot as I go whilst keeping the conversation fluent enough to not feel like hard work. It’s a good way to learn! A very friendly guy as well

Panos was very kind and patient enough during the trial lesson. He offered my specific plan for future lessons. Deeply appreciated :)
