Meet the Teacher
My name is Konstantina Kavvadia, and I have been teaching Greek for over 19 years
What I have learned about being able to speak and really undrstand Greek, are two very different things.
When people decide to learn Greek, they often start
by looking for courses, textbooks, websites,
videos and language schools. They collect
resources, learn vocabulary, study grammar
and practice exercises.
And yet, after months
— sometimes even years — many find themselves
in exactly the same frustrating situation:
They know quite a lot of words and grammar, but they simply
cannot understand or speak it right.
This is where I can help.
Speaking practice firstly has to be focused
on the vocabulary someone really needs but
most importantly the logic of the language.
This culture is not other than the expressions and casual talk, which later on can be related to the deeper roots of the history of Greek.
Now, more specifically during the class, I take the notes for you, while you concentrate on listening and speaking. I keep track of what you're saying and feed in with slang, expressions and the grammar that are suitable each time.
That means your lessons are built upon your mistakes, your interests and your goals — not on a generic textbook.
The goal is simple: And before you know it,
Less memorising. you will find yourself doing
More speaking. something you once thought.
More confidence. was impossible: Having a real conversation in Greek.

What type of learner are you
a One-on-One Person or a Groupie?
The best thing about one to one classes is that everything is focused totally on you! You have a great amount of time to practice your speaking skills and enough still for a heap of new info.
In group classes you get to practice your speaking skills with more people. More people equals more different subjects to talk about and thus more new things to learn! An important note here:
All members in group class get equal amount of time to practice speaking, ask questions and have them answered.
