Yorgos

What I really love about these lessons is that there is no book involved. It's a lot about me asking thousands of questions and Yorgos being ready with as many sources of good tailored material that answer my questions and help me remember words and structures. Memes are a golden addition! His background in Italian language and Ancient Greek allow him to explain to me things from a different etymological perspective, adding so much richness to the lexicon I learn. He never judges and he positively reinforces all the progress you make, encouraging you to have conversations and make mistakes in order to grow. Bravo!

Another great session with Yorgos! Yorgos' passion for linguistics and knowledge of various languages has helped immensely when breaking down and explaining various parts of the greek language. Very easy to talk to - I can recommend fully!

Yorgos was incredibly flexible and patient with my learning needs and happy to field some of my questions around the finer points of grammar and structure, be it in English or Greek. He is a wealth of knowledge and I’m looking forward to our next lesson!

Ο Γιώργος είναι ένας πολύ καλός δάσκαλος. Είναι υπομονετικός και έξυπνος, και ξέρει πολύ από η γλώσσα ελληνική. Δουλεύει πολύ από τα μαθήματα για να προετοιμάζει. Ευχαριστώ Υιωργο !

I’m really, really happy with my Greek lessons. Yorgos always uses everyday situations to teach me, remind me, and explain things in a simple way so I can understand. He never gets nervous or annoyed, even when I ask the same thing a hundred times. He just calmly explains again and again without any frustration. I honestly learn a lot just from normal daily life moments, without any pressure. I’m very satisfied.

We began with a review of a story that I had written after our previous class. Followed by a short conversation about my kids. Then I read to Yorgos one of his published stories and he encouraged me to read a new story I had not seen before. We switched between Greek and Spanish when I got stuck. I learned some new expressions and look forward to our next class. A very enjoyable experience.
