Learn Greek with Alex. Suitable for children and adults of all levels.

Hello everyone,

thank you for taking the time to visit my profile. My name is Alex and I'm from Greece, currently living in Amsterdam, Netherlands. Since I have been away from my country for some years now, I have decided that the time has come to start teaching everything that I know about my country's language and culture. If you're up for it we may occassionally dive into the greek culinary experience as well. Join me on this exciting journey to explore the beauty of the Greek language and culture. I am passionate and dedicated to help you achieve your language learning goals, and I tailor my lessons to accommodate your individual needs. I especially enjoy working with kids, as I have experience both in teaching and caring for children. I have a couple of years of experience in preschoolers' music education and a 10 year background of studies in music. Also, since 2020 I have taught music both privately and in class settings. Currently, I'm doing my Bachelor's in Psychology. I'm committed to personal growth and lifelong learning, values that I wish to convey to my students as well. At the beginning, my lessons are taught either in English or Italian, depending on your preference. The more your greek language knowledge and skills grow the more we will rely on them for the entire duration of our class.

Looking forward to meeting you !

About Me

I am a Greek, Italian musician living in the Netherlands. I am passionate, dedicated, creative, curious and patient. During my studies I began to recognize the limitations of a purely technical or theoretical approach, and the importance of taking into consideration the intellectual, emotional, and physical dimensions of musical expression. Through my teaching I really wish to guide my students into discovering their own unique expression, in their own time. Everyone is welcome and I will do my best to make you feel seen and heard. Let's play and have fun!

Hi, I'm Alex. I'm a classical clarinet player from Greece, currently living in the Netherlands. I studied classical clarinet performance at the University of Macedonia, Greece and at The Royal Conservatory of The Hague. I offer Clarinet lessons for all ages and levels, piano and music theory lessons mainly for beginners. I especially enjoy working with kids, as I have experience both in teaching and caring for children. I take a holistic approach in my teachings (viewing the student as a whole) and tending to the individual's different needs. Through my music lessons I hope to cultivate essential skills such as coordination, concentration, cooperation, communication and active listening, with fun and play. I'm committed to personal growth and lifelong learning, values that I wish to convey to my students, together with qualities such as self-trust, patience and curiosity, very important for navigating their own musical journey and discovering their own unique musical voice.

Justyna
Learn (modern) Greek for everyday use, university, tourism with FUN and passion / (ancient) Greek for school and university
I am a native speaker of Greek. I graduated from a Greek high school and, later, the University of Athens where I attended courses in pedagogics, psychology, and linguistics. During our lessons, I'll help you develop your skills (oral/written, and not only). I'll also try to help you improve your pronunciation and spelling. I assign homework and after I receive it, correct it thoroughly additionally providing a lot of remarks/examples if they are necessary. I worked at a language center between 2009-2016 where I was a director of studies and taught mainly English as a foreign/second language. Since 2005, when I first started teaching Greek, I have taught children and adults on a variety of language proficiency levels, mainly individually. I constantly seek progress, meaning that I study further through reading books/articles concerning didactics/methodology and learning difficulties (chiefly dyslexia), observing other teachers as well as attending seminars (online or face-to-face). During my lessons I use : - Skype/Whatsapp/Messenger to connect with you, - Google Docs to keep notes, which you can check at any time and they are yours to keep, - sketch board me to make mind maps to show connections between ideas, etc. - books, PPP, word docs, diagrams, pics, etc. - pronunciation/spelling/grammar games, - authentic materials were taken from websites. I adore my profession and desire each and every one of my students be satisfied with the lesson. That's why I make sure the atmosphere is stress-free and nice. I also want my lessons to be as effective and close to real-life needs as possible. Therefore, I make sure they are well-prepared, although they can be altered at any point, should such an opportunity arise. I like explaining things in a variety of ways as well as make use of dictionaries, diagrams, etc. When it comes to students who want to obtain certificates, I am very demanding. What can I teach? - I would love to help you improve/develop all language skills (speaking/writing-listening/reading + grammar/vocabulary/pronunciation), - I would love to help you prepare for state certificates such as A1, A2, B1, B2, C1, C2. - I would love to help you with homework and assignments (literature, history) from school and university (but please contact me about that IN ADVANCE). Regarding Ancient Greek, I can help you with commentaries/translations/grammar/syntax: - Socrates, Plato, Aristotle, - Homer, Aeschylus, Euripides, Sophocles, Sappho, - Herodotus, Thucydides, Xenophon.
