I am flexible, patient, and friendly. I adapt my lessons to each student's needs and focus on both grammar and speaking, because through my teaching experience, I've found that students learn best when they understand what they are saying first.
I also emphasize on cultural understanding and practical language skills, so students feel confident using Greek in real life. My lessons & teaching style
I hold a BA in European & Greek Civilization, which gives me a deep understanding of Greek Language in all periods (from Ancient Greek to Modern Greek), literature, history, philosophy and the arts.
I also have an MA in Pedagogical Studies, which helped me develop my teaching style.
My lessons are flexible and student-centered, because understanding how the language works is essential for speaking confidently and correctly in real-life situations.
Finally, I use oral and situational approach to help students apply what they learn in practical conversation, encouraging them to speak freely without fear or hesitation.My teaching material

Sofia makes the classes enjoyable with her positive energy, excellent questions, empathic responses, and interesting information about current events. I am always so engaged that I am surprised when the end of the hour arrives. She is overall a wonderful language and culture teacher.

Sophia is an outstanding teacher. She has the ability to immediately grasp the student's level and adapt the content accordingly. She explains concepts from the ground up, using great examples to make everything clear. She truly cares about the student's interests and is a great listener. Highly recommended!

I love how Sophia brings up timely topics from staying on top of current events. She also asks about where I stand on controversial issues which always catches my attention and allows me to stretch my vocabulary and add some new words every time. There's always more to learn in our conversations and I leave thirsty for more lessons.
