I’ve been taking lessons for a couple of months now and I’ve really enjoyed them so far. Alkisti is patient, supportive and explains everything clearly. I’ve learned a lot and understand the language much better now.

Alkisti is very communicative and well prepared for each lesson, her patience with the children whilst keeping them engaged is fantastic.

Both friendly and encouraging, I always enjoy my Greek lessons with Alkisti. She takes time to carefully prepare the lesson ahead and also sends me additional worksheets to complete when appropriate. I feel comfortable asking her even silly questions regarding the Greek language and feel I have improved significantly since beginning my lessons with her. I would highly recommend!

After 1.5 months of weekly lessons with Alkisti I already feel more confident. She is a great teacher, patient and uncritical, and has tailored the lessons well to my specific needs – I have some Greek vocabulary, but a lot of ingrained bad habits. Alkisti has provided very appropriate teaching materials, and we’ve gone back to basics on certain things – pronunciation, accents – which is helping a lot. I would definitely recommend Alkisti – so long as she is still available to teach me!

Travelling to Kefalonia yearly I wanted to learn the Greek language, which at 58 years old was very daunting, perhaps impossible, yet Alkisti’s teaching methods are faultless. If you are looking for someone to teach you a few phrases for your one off holiday this might not be for you. If you are serious about wanting to be fluent in the language then I can’t recommend Alkisti enough. She is extremely patient and understanding, never pushes you any further than what you are capable of after each lesson, she puts up with my inability to learn quickly which is totally my issue with taking things in (it’s an age thing). I must admit that as I have every lesson I think to myself ‘am I getting anywhere with this’ but then without realising I notice I can recognise written words in Greek, I can suddenly understand the alphabet and the vowels and the reason for the accents and where they should go… it’s not something you notice you are learning as you do each lesson but you realise later on with the next lesson that actually you are understanding and improving with every one. I’m far away from where I want to be but Alkisti is 100% going to get me there I’m certain of that.
