About Jordan
Fluent also in French and German, I have some basic knowledge of Russian and Spanish; and I'm a beginner in Mandarin Chinese. I've got literary degrees from Harvard (where I received a BA and a distinction for translation into Attic Greek) and from the Sorbonne Nouvelle (where I received an MA in translation). I also have a Master of Arts degree in Economics from San Francisco State University and a PhD in philosophy from Université Paris 8. I worked many years as an English translator for the United Nations system.

I am interested in teaching persons committed to mastering Greek at various levels but on a solid basis.
My learner-oriented approach focuses on accidence, syntax, vocabulary, reading and pronunciation with a view to textual and literary analysis and discussion of the Attic Greek, koine and biblical Greek texts of interest to the student.
We will be using tested methods, textbooks by distinguished scholars or institutions, and unabridged editions of the writings examined.
We will employ the Erasmian pronunciation or the current phonation, depending on the student's preference.

I would recommend Jordan Anthony to anyone seeking full mastery of French. His way of starting from fundamentals and gradually taking the student to a high level of competence gave me confidence throughout my three-year apprenticeship with him. I am now quite fluent in French, both at the practical and the scholarly level. Francesco
Jordan Anthony has tutored me in Ancient Greek in my last two years in high school and my first two in college. We started when I was a mere beginner. By the end of my Sophomore year I was quite at ease with classical authors. Jordan's method of teaching Greek has not only opened that tongue with all its wealth to me, but also given me insights into my own language. Thalia
French used to seem quite bizarre to me, or at least arbitrary, until I found Jordan Anthony a year and a half ago. Five months later I could converse, and by now I understand not only the classical authors, but also things like the songs of George Brassens, and can hold sophisticated discussions with well educated Parisians. Of course, I did my part (I've been "a good student").
I would enthousiastically recommend Jordan Anthony to anyone interested in learning Ancient Greek. He has a unique way of clarifying what may seem obscure. In two years of being tutored by him I accomplished what has taken my fellow-students five or more. I can now read Plato, the Bible.
