Hello everybody! I am Sophia and teach Modern and Ancient Greek. I am a native speaker leaving in Athens for a long time. I am a culturist with a Bachelor's degree in European and Greek Civilization, which had also studies in Ancient Greek language and literature. Furthermore I am interested in journalism and creative writing. Actually I attended a relevant course in National and Kapodistrian University of Athens. Learning languages, though, is my big passion. I started learning English and I went to South Africa for further practice and I got a teaching certificate by Telf Academy. This learning journey continued with French, Spanish and with Italian. Love communicating with people.
Me as a Teacher
As a teacher I am flexible, friendly, patient and above all professional.
My lessons & teaching style
Since I hold a BA in European and Greek Civilization and if you like learning Greek in the fields of literature, language, general, social and economic history, philosophy, arts, join me. I also hold a MA in Pedagogical Studies and these specific studies helped me to find my teaching style. I don't use a rigid method in teaching but often a combination of some of the main methods depending always on the needs and objectives of the student. The oral approach and situational method is my favorite, as by following this you learn to speak the language. After all, that's why we learn a language, to speak it.

Sofia is very passionate with Ancient Greek and her energy is contagious, I feel that I can quickly improve with her meticulous support.

Taking on the study of Greek on a one to one basis was a big step for me, and it was important to find a teacher who was patient and supportive. I have found Sophia is that person, and more. She is an experienced teacher who uses interesting material and she is enthusiastic and generous, both with her time and in providing extra material to read outside our classes about my interests - which are Greek and Cypriot history, literature and culture. These qualities, together with her love of all things Greek and her desire to share it, make her an ideal teacher.

The lesson with Sofia was great! She is very positive and attentive. Sofia was well-prepared and focused on the areas where I can improve. The lesson was both fun and productive, and we spoke a lot in Greek. Ευχαριστώ πολύ, Σοφία! :)

Great lesson with Sofia. It is well structured and she is happy to provide you with homework if that’s what you want to do. Sofia has years of experience as a tutor.
