Hello everyone! I'm Panos, an experienced language teacher teaching Modern Greek as a foreign language. I'm a native speaker of Modern Greek and love meeting new students from all over the world. Let's meet and explore all about this amazing country and embark on an incredible language learning journey! Looking forward to meeting you all!Me as a Teacher
As a teacher, I am always willing to adjust to my students' style and constantly work until we find the best approach to master the language. There is definitely not one way to teach a language but there is one that works for each student and through constant effort, it can be found which makes teaching and learning an amazing experience for everyone!My lessons & teaching style
My teaching style is quite friendly and casual without neglecting the basic structure of the language and the elements needed to start building towards accomplishing fluency and accuracy. I always make an effort to incorporate authentic conversations of various nature to simulate realistic scenarios as a means of bringing real life in my lessons. Repetition and revision of key subjects are part of the learning experience as well.My teaching material

and help them develop the necessary knowledge and communicative abilities in order to use the English and Greek languages fluently for general and academic purposes.
2012 - 2014
Master's - Applied LinguisticsThe particular MA course aims at providing opportunities for English and Greek teachers:
to think critically about language matters and about current issues concerning the teaching and learning of Greek, as well as English language testing and assessment,
to understand how different theories about language and language learning lead to different practices of language teaching, testing, and assessment and
to investigate and theorise practices around language teaching, learning, and assessment.

I've studied Welsh and German online, with many different teachers. I have also been involved in professional evaluation of specialist English teachers. After half a dozen plus Greek lesson with Panos, I have no hesitation in saying that he is right at the top of the game. His lessons are well prepared, structured yet flexible, and geared towards the individual's needs. In each lesson there are plenty of opportunities for review and reinforcement of key points, all done with patience and good humour. In addition, he uses Quizlet to encourage further independent reinforcement of key points. He's great!

Panos is a great language teacher. I have had 30+ lessons with him over the last 4 months and enjoy learning Greek. Panos has an excellent command of English and is very knowledgeable about the Greek language and grammar, which I appreciate as a computational linguist. Panos engages the learner with a variety of exercises, techniques and topics and very naturally adapts to the interests of his students.
A few days ago, I met a Greek at my workplace and had the chance to put my Greek to practice. At the end of our conversation he said: You must have a very good teacher.
I couldn't agree more.

Another incredible lesson with Pano, our 60th together, I think, over 3 years. He is a truly exceptional teacher: kind, dedicated, supportive, and knowledgeable in all the mechanics of Greek and English, so he can explain the precise reason why you would use a certain tense or part of speech. He speaks in a clear, vivid, and enunciated way that is easy for a new language learner to understand, and with him, I've progressed from learning the basics of the language to writing more complex literary pieces in Greek. He's very open to the different goals and writing projects I propose, so I feel that our lessons accomplish exactly what I want at any given moment. And above and beyond all of this, Panos has been one of my first and closest friends in Greece and has helped to welcome me into this country.
