🦉 seminars on teaching Greek
🪶 3 years of teaching
🐓 PhD in linguistics (right now in my 2nd year)
I like providing 'comprehensible input' to my students. I offer either a grammar class built on each of my student's needs or a speaking class. Both are funny and helpful, and perhaps equally crucial to language learning. I can really adapt because I know what learning a foreign language is like myself. Also, my PhD is largely on language teaching so I believe I can guide you well! Lastly, I am fun and I hope you're fun too! Learning is about enjoying, not memorizing.Che tipo di insegnante sono
What I value in people (and students) is being comfortable asking anything. Really, feel free to ask your question. Many students actually set very intriguing questions, and I appreciate their insight. I am very adaptable to one's learning preferences and needs. The happiest classes are not the ones I have with more advanced students, but the ones in which I communicate easily with the student. When it comes to learning foreign languages, my personal experience says that establishing a solid connection is the most significant part. The student should know at any time 'Why am I learning this?', 'How can I use this?' and 'why is this different from this?'.Le mie lezioni e il mio metodo di insegnamento
I usually provide dialogues based on a real-world communicative need (e.g. buying-selling) and then extract the grammar from my student. We then go on to apply grammatical rules, learn new vocabulary by topics and memorize new stuff by speaking. This method emphasizes language as a system, but the student plays an equally important role.
What I value in people (and students) is being comfortable asking anything. I follow the general syllabus of my university and usually teach by a textbook, but I am really available to have conversation classes, as well.
Feel free to reach out for anything and take care.Il mio materiale didattico

La scelta dell'insegnante
Vasilis is a fantastically patient and enthusiastic teacher. He tailors his lessons and instruction to both your language-learning goals and your personal interests. Yet I think what really distinguishes his teaching style is his ability to bring his expertise in linguistics to your learning process, letting you "look under the hood" of a famously complex language like Greek in a way that clarifies things far more than I've ever encountered in a foreign language class. All those "why do you say it this way and not that way?"-type questions one has when studying a foreign language--he can actually answer them coherently. For me, this has made the study of Modern Greek way less intimidating and way more exciting. Highly recommended!

Again, nothing but the most positive recommendation for this wonderful teacher. Today we went over some useful constructions in Greek and some phrases that indicate how often I do or don’t do something. It is a great pleasure knowing that a skill is improving, and I feel my improvement in Greek couldn’t have been assisted by a better teacher. Highly recommend.

Vasilis continues to provide motivating material, making elements relevant to past lessons, creating a continuity of of learning. His style is not random, rather it is thoughtfully designed to help guide me along my journey. He builds upon my past accomplishments and provides material that bolsters me where my knowledge gaps are.
