Constantin Mihai

Constantin is completely proficient in Latin, which does not cease to amaze me, and he's very good at rephrasing or explaining what I don't initially understand, all without using a word of English! It's also fun to just chat with him about anything!

Another great lesson. I can't stress enough how helpful these classes are in really internalizing Ancient Greek. Having just finished a lesson, the language feels like it is already more "really in my head" than ever before; I just spoke to my wife and almost instinctively began using Ancient Greek! τοῦτο δὲ μάλα ἀρέσκει μοι!

Constantin est magister optimus! Semper patientiam mihi habet. Multa res in clase discedo!

Μιχαὴλ εὗρον πέρυσι ἐσπουδκὼς πολλὰ ἤδη ἔτη περὶ τῆς ἑλληνικῆς γλώσσης καὶ βουλόμενος μελετᾶν τὸ διαλέγεσθαι. ὁ δὲ Μιχαὴλ ἄρτι ἐφαίνετό μοι σπουδαιότατος καὶ ἐπιεικὴς ὤν, διδάσκων ὁτιοῦν ἔχει ἄσμενως μετὰ ἐλευθερίας τε καὶ φιλίας. μὴ οὖν ἀπορεῖ, ὦ ἀναγινώσκων, εἰ οἷός τε καὶ σύ μανθάνειν τὸ ἑλληνιστὶ διαλέγεσθαι. μὴ δὲ θαύμαζε εἰ, πολὺν ἤδη χρόνον ἀνηλωκὼς μάτην ἄλλῃ σπουδάζων περὶ τῆς γλώσσης, καλέσας “advanced” καίπερ οὐκ ἔχων τι τῷ ὄντι λέγειν, τοῦ Μιχαὴλ ὀλίγον χρόνον διδάσκοντος, ἐξαίφνης δείνος ἑλληνίζειν γίνῃ. ἔχων γὰρ τὸν Μιχαὴλ ὡς διδάσκαλον, μαθήσει εὐθέως, ἐάν τοι ὁ Θεός - καὶ σύ αὐτός - ἐθέλῃ!

Ive seen so much growth in my son's language learning since he began lessons with Constantin. Hes motivated to learn and Constantin keeps him on track, moving in the right direction, and always comes prepared with engaging lessons and gives him homework to do in his down time outside of meetings.

L'insegnante mi ha messa a mio agio da subito. Ho trovato molta affinità tra le mie richieste di apprendimento e le sue competenze.
