About Sofia
Γειά σας, my name is Sofia. I am from Athens. I hold a PhD in Museum Studies & Education at the University of Leicester. I am also certified for the teaching foreign/second language by Open University, UK. I have 10 years’ worth of experience teaching Greek as a second and foreign language in the UK as school, university and private tutor. I have experience teaching at an A1 Level (Beginners) to C1 (Advanced) and for children, primary school to GCSE. I currently preparing student for the Greek GCSE and teach Modern Greek at the university and in private lessons online, having students at different ages and from all over the world.
I am a strong advocate and adopter of interactive teaching approaches and my aim is to promote learning as an enjoyable process, and to encourage and engage my students with the learning materials. I enjoy teaching people from different backgrounds, ages and cultures and have a passion for teaching, but learning too.
I am also speaking Spanish and am an art and history lover. I believe that the best way to learn a language is to SPEAK that language. Hence, our lessons will mostly be based on conversations through which you will get a better understanding of Greek grammar rules. I don't want to be the classic teacher; I consider myself a facilitator, and I can tell you that no language is difficult - what you need is the right method!

I understand that every person is different, therefore, I organise and structure my lessons based on students’ needs, interest, age and level, respecting their rhythm to learn and offering a relaxing, comfortable and engaging environment to practise the language. In our first lesson, I would love to find out more about your interests, your goals, and your motivation to learn Greek.
Likewise, the first lesson presents a valuable opportunity for me to consider your needs and feelings, and allows me to devise a learning plan that is suitable and enjoyable for you. I like to start my lessons by encouraging students to talk about what they have done in the last few days, or during the weekend. We will also review the vocabulary or grammar learnt in the previous lesson. I create exercises that are useful for students to practise different skills. For example, I will share videos for listening and understanding or we would start a conversation after reading a text. I will also introduce a topic in each lesson, so my students can learn new vocabulary and grammar through different activities. Such activities could be reading, listening, role-playing and other visual games.
My teaching materials are also:
Video and Songs
PDF file Text Documents
Image files
Short Stories
Articles and News
Quizze
Presentation slides/PPT
I also offer classes for Modern Greek for travel, Modern Greek for business, Modern Greek for going abroad and Modern Greek for academic study, as well as Greek Music and New & Media in Greece for advanced students.
I would love to help you speak Greek, learn grammar, vocabulary, and idioms, whilst giving you an insight into Greek culture, history, music, and food, even recommendations for your holidays.
I would be very happy to be your guide and show you the magic world of the Greek language. There is no way we cannot find together for you to enjoy the process and turn the information into knowledge which will be yours forever.
Send me an email to have an online coffee and talk about what you need and how I can help you get it.

Great teacher. Very insightful teaching boosts confidence of students and provides very useful tips! She is very patient, and I always feel we are progressing after every lesson. Totally recommend Sofia.
Sofia was a wonderful and enthusiastic tutor. Her classes were always well-prepared and well though out - carefully guiding me through the basics of speaking and understanding in an interesting and engaging way. I've always struggled with the grammar side of things and Sofia's ability to explain the impossible made her an invaluable resource for my learning.
I really enjoy my Greek lessons with Sofia. Her thorough and patient teaching style has helped me immensely in gaining confidence with the language.
She really helped me get started learning Greek. Now I am able to say I'm confident when travelling and working in Greece. Amazing teacher, I can't wait to learn more. Thank you Sofia
Sofia is a great teacher, she explains everything very well and has an excellent approach to teaching. I’m very glad we found her!
We are enjoying our lessons, we are slow to learn and need patience which you have and an excellent sense of humour which also works for us. We thank you for your support and hope with you tutoring us we will continue to learn and develop the language as it is so important to us that we do.
You are excellent in your support and coaching which we appreciate.
Sofia is a fantastic tutor.
I am learning Spanish casually and she has made me feel comfortable very quickly and I am learning a lot much quicker than I expected.Perfect! Sofia is a lovely, capable, and responsible teacher. I highly recommend her!!!
Sofia is passionate about helping others learn Greek. Works at a good pace. A tutor with great character.
