This course aims to give students the opportunity to consolidate their knowledge of the basic Greek, and to express themselves using simple phrases and survival language.
Perfect for learners who have completed the first part of the beginners’ course and are ready to build on their skills. We’ll explore everyday topics such as daily routines (η καθημερινή ρουτίνα), weather (ο καιρός), and transport (συγκοινωνίες). You’ll learn to describe your day with phrases like Ξυπνάω στις επτά (I wake up at seven), talk about the weather using Έχει συννεφιά σήμερα (It’s cloudy today), and navigate transport with questions like Πού είναι η στάση του λεωφορείου; (Where is the bus stop?). Through interactive lessons and cultural insights, you’ll gain the confidence to use Greek in real-life situations.
What will we cover?
Topics: Time, means of transport, daily routines & hobbies, weather.
Grammar: Continue learning the Greek alphabet, active verbs in present, nouns in nominative and accusative (singular), personal, pronouns, possessive pronouns.
What will I achieve? By the end of this course you should be able to...
- Ask and tell the time - Ask for and give information on the street - Talk about daily routines & hobbies - Describe the weather - Say the days of the week and months.
What level is the course and do I need any particular skills?
Students should have studied Modern Greek beginners: module 1 or have equivalent experience (i.e. have studied for at least 15 classroom hours recently).
How will I be taught, and will there be any work outside the class?
Our courses are characterised by spoken interaction and communication. Typical activities include pair work, group work, role plays and games. A range of resources will be used to support your learning including presentations, hand-outs, and audio-visual material. Homework is highly recommended to consolidate learning.

I hold an MA in Modern Greek and Italian Language and Literature from ELTE University in Budapest, where I specialized in Neo-Latin Linguistics and completed a Teacher Training Programme. I furthered my studies with a postgraduate course in Teaching Modern Greek as a Second Language at the University of Patras, Greece, supported by a Greek Government Scholarship. Additionally, I studied Neo-Latin Linguistics for a semester at Roma Tre University in Italy on a scholarship. My approach to language learning emphasizes communication and real-world application, focusing on conversation to help students confidently use the language in everyday situations. As a CELTA-certified instructor, I incorporate communicative teaching methods to create an engaging and immersive learning environment. I believe that learning a language is also an opportunity to explore its culture, history, and traditions. Through my lessons, I encourage students to embrace both the linguistic and cultural aspects of Greek and Italian, making their learning experience enriching and enjoyable.
