About Me
italki teacher since Aug 26, 2023Me as a Teacher
Language teaching I thoroughly enjoy and I have considerable experience in it. I am interested in teaching persons committed to mastering Greek - to varying degrees of course, but on a solid basis. (If you only seek to acquire some Greek expressions for tourist travel, that is wonderful, and I wholeheartedly wish you a very good time - but I am not your man.)
NB: I teach Ancient Greek with the living, modern pronunciation, rather than with an artificial phonation system, no matter how erudite.My lessons & teaching style
Grammatical understanding and actual usage will be the guiding principled from the start. We will be using tested textbooks, updated and adapted in a learner-oriented approach.My teaching material

Excellent first impression. Jordan was able to give me a concrete and interesting overview of Ancient Greek in just a few minutes. He also explained in detail his teaching method, program and benefits of learning the language in the way he suggests. I will definitely choose him as my teacher as soon as I will be ready for this challenging but promising linguistic journey. He seems to be the right professor to motivate me to reach the level of excellence which I am aiming at.
