Hello, language enthusiasts of the world! If you have watched my introduction video, you should already know everything about me. Or, almost everything.
Personality-wise, I come across as a funny, laidback and quite an extrovert individual. But hey, that's for you to figure out as we get to know each other in our lessons. =)
My biggest passions, alongside languages, lie in Civil Aviation and the study of Geopolitics.
Ik als leerkracht
Teaching has never been on my list of jobs to do. I would find it exhausting and tedious, especially when kids were involved. Never have I been so wrong! In fact, teaching has projected the best in me. Being a patient and sociable individual by nature, I have found myself willing and able to create a friendly, yet professional atmosphere in my classes.
Whether you are a young learner, an adult professional, or even a parent who wishes their kid(s) could easily comprehend and communicate in English/Greek, I invite you to join me in one of my dynamic lessons, where you will experience unique teaching methods that will put you in the driver’s seat from day one!
Mijn lessen en manier van lesgeven
I very much enjoy making my students think deeply when expressing their opinions, helping them identify vocabulary and grammar points, working and suggesting tips on pronunciation and guiding them through the highs and lows of learning in general.
I keep my teaching style simple and informal. We will aim at having a pleasant and relaxed time while conversing but will be subtly focusing on the end result, which is for you to learn/improve your target language. I have plenty of material at hand for every level and in both languages, while I also use constructive feedback to always keep you on track.
As long as you are motivated and don't give up easily, we are sure to make it through. =)

The only bad thing I can say about having Ivan as a teacher is that he is too good at teaching! I am also learning Italian and mandarin, so It’s really very annoying because I haven't been able to find teachers that I enjoy having lessons with in those languages as much as Ivan’s, he’s set the bar too high!
Ivan is a very patient and fun teacher. His method of laying down the foundations of Greek is really paying off for me and I am looking forward to many more lessons to come. I know my learning has really just begun, but with Ivan's help I really have the motivation to keep going.
In the past with other teachers I have often felt nervous before a lesson, but not so with Ivan. We have a joke about mistakes and he makes me feel comfortable to speak, which is crucial for me.
In over a year Ivan has become a friend as well as a great teacher, soon it will be my 100th lesson with him! Thanks to Ivan learning Greek has become a one of my major life challenges that I really enjoy!

After working with Ivan for a language challenge I have continued to work with him for over a year. Starting from absolute zero Ivan has helped work with me at my level and has provided critical assistance with colloquial phrases and understanding the history/reasoning for various words.
Ευχαριστώ πολύ για όλη τη βοήθειά σου και ελπίζω να συνεχίσω να βελτιώνομαι με τη βοήθειά σου

Είμαι πολύ τυχερός που βρήκα τον Ivan ως Έλληνα δάσκαλό μου. Μου αρέσουν πολύ τα μαθήματα καθώς είναι πάντα διασκεδαστικά και μαθαίνω πολύ χρήσιμο λεξιλόγιο.
I am a teacher myself and I really appreciate Ivan's patience and sense of humour. He is excellent at getting you to say what you want to say by drawing it out of you and time flies during the lessons. Keep up the good work, Ivan!

Ivan is an excellent teacher, very clear, patient, professional but also friendly and approachable. His lessons are interesting and he finds ways of helping make things stick in my memory. I would recommend Ivan as a first class teacher to anyone, whatever level of Greek they were at.
