About Me
italki teacher since May 30, 2024Interest topicMusicFoodPets & AnimalsArtScience
Hey there! My name's Eleni and I'm from Greece, from Kastoria. Not the usual tourist spots like Santorini or Mykonos, but a little town up north surrounded by nature's beauty - mountains, lakes and all.
Since I was a kid, I knew I wanted to be a teacher, and that's why I went on to study Education for my Bachelor's and Greek Linguistics for my Master's. I've also attended a seminar on teaching Greek as a second or foreign language, further enhancing my expertise in this field.
I love learning new languages and, in my free time, I love to cook, take walks in nature with a coffee in hand, and put my language skills to the test. Apart from English, I speak Portuguese and some Spanish.Me as a Teacher
My passion for languages fuels my teaching! I hold a degree in Primary Education and a specialized Master's in Linguistics for Teachers. This foundation is solidified by over five years of experience teaching Greek as a Foreign Language to all ages.
I ignited my passion for accessibility while volunteering in Romania, teaching children from disadvantaged communities. Further experience came from internships in a Portuguese High School and Greek primary schools.
My lessons are immersive, focusing on real-world conversation and engaging texts, ensuring you learn practical Greek, not just grammar drills. Let's unlock the beauty of Greek together!My lessons & teaching style
My lessons are designed to immerse you in Greek and get you speaking confidently. We'll focus on real-life conversations and dialogues, making the language practical and relevant.
Vocabulary will be built organically through engaging texts, ditching the long, forgettable lists. Grammar is essential, of course, but we'll keep it clear and concise, focusing on practical application, not memorization.
My approach is varied and engaging, ensuring you stay motivated and see progress throughout your learning journey.My teaching material

Absolutely love my lessons with Eleni! She’s incredibly patient and makes learning fun, which really helps because Greek isn’t an easy language. Plus, she’s just genuinely lovely, so it feels more like hanging out than a class. Highly recommend her if you’re looking to learn the Greek language!

Excellent, knowledgeable teacher. Eleni assessed my level very efficiently and tailored my lesson exactly to my needs. She is friendly and easy to talk to, and I plan on booking many more lessons with Eleni.

I had my first Greek lesson with Eleni today. She is very sweet and patient. The way Eleni likes to teach her lessons is interacting through texts, using visuals, and to use realistic, everyday Greek conversations for comprehension. I personally felt comfortable speaking with Eleni as she is also mindful of understanding my Greek level and how I would like to learn Greek moving forward. I will definitely continue having more Greek lessons with her in the future!
