Hello! My name is Alexandros, and I’m a passionate and experienced teacher of Ancient Greek and Greek history, with a degree from the University of Athens, specializing in Ancient Greek and Modern Greek Literature. I’ve been teaching for over 19 years, and my mission goes beyond helping students improve their grades—I strive to make learning a meaningful, personal, and enjoyable experience. Whether we’re exploring the dramas of Sophocles or the poetry of Cavafy, my goal is to bring the magic of Greek language and literature to life for every learner.
As a teacher, I’m known for being supportive, adaptable, and deeply engaged with my students. I tailor each session to the student’s strengths, weaknesses, and learning style. I help students develop critical thinking, not just memorize content. I offer continuous feedback and support even outside class hours, and I work closely with students to refine goals.
What makes my lessons special is the connection between language and culture. When we study Ancient Greek, we also explore the monuments, inscriptions, and daily life of the ancient world. I love bringing texts to life by linking them with real archaeological sites and historical context.
Each 60-minute lesson is structured, engaging, and customized:
• Introduction (10 minutes): We review previous material and set clear goals.
• Main segment (40 minutes): Includes a concise theory presentation (e.g., Homeric characters) and plenty of practice through exercises, creative wri...

Today’s lesson was incredibly interesting and well-structured. We started by correcting my homework on diphthongs and consonant clusters; Alexandros clarified every doubt, integrating the corrections with fascinating insights that made everything stick. We worked through exercises 3-6 of Chapter 1 (Ελληνικά Α΄). We also revisited the first three dialogues to clarify vocabulary and practiced reading with Exercise 7 (page 17). A highlight was the introduction to Greek accents and monosyllables, specifically the exceptions like 'πού vs που' and 'πώς vs πως'—very helpful! We even took a moment to test my Greek keyboard setup. We moved on to listening exercises and vocabulary building with Dialogues 4 and 5 (page 19). Finally, we introduced the verb 'to be' with personal pronouns, seeing how they function in real dialogue, and touched briefly on cardinal numbers 0-10. Alexandros is an excellent teacher: he keeps the pace engaging and is always encouraging.I highly recommend. Ευχαριστώ.Marco

Alexandros is a phenomenal teacher! We covered the entire Greek alphabet in just 30 minutes, and I was impressed by how structured and clear his method is. He provides detailed explanations for everything and uses appropriate materials.
For a student like me, Alexandros offers a solid and concrete framework; he builds your knowledge from the ground up, just like an engineer building a house from its foundations. He is incredibly professional, prepared, and always ready to encourage you. On top of that, he is very friendly and makes the lesson engaging and productive.
He already provided me with targeted exercises to practice, showing great dedication. I am truly grateful for his availability and his passion for teaching. If you want to learn Greek with a clear path and a solid structure, Alexandros is the best choice. Highly recommended!
Ευχαριστώ πολύ!

Alexandros is THE teacher if you truly aim to learn Ancient Greek. The task is by no means easy, but he will go out of his way to support you in every possible way. Not only is he an expert in the Ancient Greek language and its nuances, but he is also deeply knowledgeable about the classical authors you may wish to study—such as Xenophon, Plato, and Homer. He meticulously prepares exercises tailored to your specific goals, whether that’s reading certain texts or refining grammar.
A lesson begins with a review of homework, and any mistakes are discussed in detail to ensure you learn from them. By the end of each session, you can be certain you’ve gained new knowledge, gradually shaping your understanding until what once looked like a string of mathematical symbols becomes clear and meaningful.
All in all, I highly recommend Alexandros’ expertise to anyone serious about learning Ancient Greek

Today’s lesson with Alexandros was intense and engaging. We reviewed the first ten exercises from the book Ελληνικά Α’, strengthening the basics, and then focused on consonant combinations and diphthongs. We also listened to the first dialogues (pp. 14–15), working on comprehension and reading, still centered on consonant clusters.
Homework was assigned (exercises 3, 4, 5, and 6) to continue practicing. A particularly fascinating part of the lesson was the historical overview: from the Minoan age to the Mycenaean palace period, through the Dark Age, and into the Classical, Hellenistic, and Byzantine eras.
Alexandros’s knowledge and passion make each lesson motivating and inspiring. Thank you, Alexandros!
Ευχαριστώ
(Efcharistó be careful “ef” before a voiceless consonant!😉)
