Learn Modern Greek with an experienced Greek teacher

Hello!

My name is Pantazis (Πανταζής) and I am a Greek Language teacher from Thessaloniki, Greece. I hold a Bachelor’s degree in Greek Language and Literature from the University of Ioannina, and I am currently a graduate student in historical linguistics at the Aristotle University of Thessaloniki. During my undergraduate studies, I carried out two internships as a Modern Greek Language teacher. I also completed a course in Modern Greek proofreading and copy-editing at the University of Athens. I have been teaching Modern Greek for the last 8 years.

My Modern Greek Language classes are based on the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages, according to which there are 6 levels of foreign language acquisition: A1 & A2 (Basic User), B1 & B2 (Independent User), and C1 & C2 (Proficient User).

In my Basic User class (beginners), I use a textbook for both A1 and A2 levels, which has useful dialogue for everyday life, grammar theory, and exercises. We read the dialogues together, I give the meaning of every word or phrase, I explain the grammar theory, and I give some homework. We can also speak a little in Greek and do some grammar and vocabulary exercises together during the lesson. There are no vocabulary lists since the words are to be learned in a given context, using also my help. The book consists of twenty chapters, four of which are review chapters.

In my Independent User class (intermediate), I use a textbook for both B1 and B2 levels, which has different kinds of texts, grammar theory, and exercises, but also a vocabulary list in each chapter. We follow the same method as above but we go deeper into the grammar and we try to speak mostly in Greek. The book is divided into twenty chapters, four of which are review chapters.

In my Proficient User Class (advanced), I use a textbook for both C1 and C2 levels, which also has different kinds of texts, grammar theory, exercises, and vocabulary lists. Again, we follow the same method as above. We emphasize less common and more exquisite Greek expressions. We also learn some words and phrases from Katharevousa (the artificial and official language of Greece until 1976). Of course, we only speak in Greek and I explain everything in Greek (or in English, if needed). The book is divided into fifteen chapters, two of which are review chapters.

I have shown you, my typical classes. In case you would like something else, feel free to suggest anything that suits you best. I am very flexible and I like adjusting my classes to my students' needs and preferences.

About Me

Hello! My name is Pantazis and I am an Ancient and Modern Greek Language teacher from Thessaloniki, Greece.

I hold a Bachelor’s degree in Greek Language and Literature (specialization: Classics) from the University of Ioannina, and I am currently a graduate student in historical linguistics at Aristotle University of Thessaloniki. I also completed a course in Modern Greek proofreading and copy-editing at the University of Athens.

I emphasized Ancient Greek in my undergraduate degree and simultaneously carried out two internships as a Modern Greek Language teacher;
1) at Aristotle University of Thessaloniki, Greece, and
2) at the Hellenic Foundation for Culture in Bucharest, Romania.
I was also accepted for a third internship in the Jean Jaures University of Toulouse, France, but it was cut short due to the Covid pandemic.

For the last 8 years I’ve been teaching Modern Greek, Ancient Attic Greek and New Testament Greek.

I’d like to share with you a little bit about my teaching style.

For Modern Greek beginners typically we will study some basic grammar theory, we will read dialogues based on real life situations and I will give you some homework. For more advanced learners, we can also incorporate real texts full of interesting vocabulary, such as internet articles.
My Ancient Greek teaching focuses on grammar and reading comprehension. I use tried and true textbooks that offer grammar theory, texts and exercises.

I have also tailored extra teaching materials that I will share with you.

Aside from my teaching, I love travelling, singing and learning about other cultures and languages.

Education

University of Ioannina: BA in "Greek Language and Literature: Classics"
Aristotle Univeristy of Thessaloniki: MA in "Historical Linguistics"
National and Kapodistrian University of Athens: Course in "Modern Greek proofreading and copy-editing"

Experience / Qualifications

Private French lessons for adults and teenagers with native French speaker in Co. Mayo
For the past two decades, I've had the privilege of tutoring in both French and English. My students have ranged in age, background, and origin, spanning children, teenagers, adults, professionals, and even seniors aged 85 and above. You might wonder why I teach both languages. Well, I am bilingual, with American and Swiss/French roots, and I currently reside in Ireland. This unique blend of experiences equips me with a strong and relevant teaching approach. I possess an intimate understanding of both cultures, enabling me to tailor my classes to the specific needs of my students. My teaching journey began during my time studying social work in French-speaking Switzerland. I started offering private French and English lessons to supplement my income, and I quickly discovered my passion for it. Even after graduating and embarking on a full-time career, I couldn't bear to give up this rewarding activity. I cherished the opportunity to connect with diverse individuals and assist them in achieving their language goals. In my teaching methodology, interactivity takes center stage. I employ a variety of engaging learning tools, including photos, newspaper articles, music, videos, and more. My approach is highly adaptable, with a focus on addressing each student's unique priorities. Some seek to refine their pronunciation, grammar, and vocabulary, while others require assistance with presentations or speeches for school or work. Some simply aspire to acquire a new language to enrich their general knowledge. I also specialize in teaching younger children, a testament to my educational background and experience. What you will gain from my courses extends beyond impeccable pronunciation and enhanced vocabulary and grammar. You'll also acquire a profound understanding of the culture associated with each language. When speaking a language, it's essential to appreciate the lifestyle, traditions, and heritage of the nations where it thrives. French and English are spoken as primary languages in numerous countries worldwide, each with its own unique accent and cultural nuances. The learning process is limitless! In addition to my language instruction, I'm a genealogist and host spiritual (non-religious) seminars in the beautiful West of Ireland. My passion for vegetarian and vegan cuisine adds a flavorful dimension to my life. Furthermore, I hold a degree in Early Childhood Education and have operated a private "Before & Afterschool" facility along with Summer Camps catering to children aged 4 to 12 for many years. I am genuinely excited about the prospect of meeting and working with you!

Non-academic Latin lessons. Multilingual teacher with 9 years of experience. Pronunciation, historical linguistics, conceptual semantics.
Contrary to popular belief, learning Latin is not like learning the phone book by heart. I offer you Latin lessons that are unlike any other. There are two types of courses. Here is an analogy to illustrate their respective approaches: If you take the train back and forth every day and don't have time to wait long at the platform, imagine that you only have two options: 1) Learn the schedules by heart. 2) Note that the train arrives every ten minutes and that a train arrives for example at 7:00 a.m. In school pedagogy, in study notebooks and in ordinary courses, it is the first approach which is adopted - in the courses that I offer you, it is the second because it is more economical and faster. My offer is aimed at both students and adults who want to learn the Latin language or deepen their knowledge without time-consuming detours through the insanities of school methods which do not produce results. Learning is easy but unlearning what has become a bad habit is extremely difficult. All the more important it is to learn the right reflexes as early as possible. With my tailor-made teaching you will accelerate your learning in a positive state of mind. I offer individual or group Latin lessons (2 to 5 people). The methods are based on cognitive sciences and in particular historical linguistics. What will not be the subject of the course: learn lists of verbs; learn lists of nouns with their gender; learn words with their translations; memory card game; doing school exercises; follow the program in a notebook; impose French grammar on the Latin language. What matters to me in particular: motivate my student and give him a learning rhythm; encourage creativity; make friends with language; letters and their sounds strengthen your memory by working on the phonological loop; teach construction plans instead of having people learn sentences by heart; explain how the language works to make my student independent as quickly as possible; breaking preconceived ideas such as the gammatical gender would have a link with the biological gender, the accusative would be a direct complement and the dative an indirect complement, the verbs would be irregular, the declension would be random and therefore to be learned with each verb... ; place practice at the center and articulate grammar around practice. In the context of a first course, you can get a well-founded idea of my pedagogy. I look forward to meeting you.

French courses for students in school and students who would like to improve in the language.
French is one of the most influential languages in the world. Knowing how to speak, read and write it while understanding the significant accuracy of the words used is an asset that unfortunately very few master. My lessons are based on my student's expectations, the areas in which he wants to work will be implemented.

Improve your English pronunciation, vocabulary and grammar with a native English speaker
Many English courses focus on grammar and vocabulary but, if you want to be understood you’ll need to know how to speak clearly, and that means learning the key features of English pronunciation. You may think you need to sound like a native speaker to have good English pronunciation, but this simply isn’t true. Many people have an ‘accent’ when they speak English, but they are easy to understand. In short, good pronunciation is not about accent, but rather clarity of speech. My main areas of teaching English are improving pronunciation, increasing vocabulary and understanding grammar. The lessons are "tailor made" to suit the requirements of the student.

Private Ukrainian lessons. LEARN UKRAINIAN EASILY WITH ME. "Unlock the World: Elevate Your Life with Ukrainian Language Lessons!"
As a Ukrainian teacher for foreigners with varying language proficiency levels, I hold a unique and pivotal role in the realm of education. I am in touch with my students almost all the time. We are not only practicing grammar and vocabulary, but we are also experiencing a love of Ukrainian culture together. There is no place for constant boring theory and mindless rote memorization. My values are trust, understanding and love. My dedication to imparting the Ukrainian language to a diverse group of learners has shaped an identity, fostering a rich tapestry of experiences, skills, and qualities that make an invaluable asset in the field of education. I love seeing and participating in my students' interest in the Ukrainian language. What warms my heart the most is their curiosity about every detail and exception. Especially when they want to look for new things for themselves and then tell me about what they have found with a twinkle in their eye.
