I attended Greek classes at this school during the summer of 2023 and 2024. I ve enjoyed the learning process with my wonderful … More teacher Vasiliki. She had the patience to listen to me even when I made mistakes in my speech and to correct me, to guide me during my studies in a way that would make my learning easier. During my stay at the school, I also met other teachers who were involved in extracurricular activities such as joint trips to museums, dinners, Greek dance lessons, classes on Greek culture and visits to supermarkets where we learned new words.... This school is my recommendation for anyone who wants to get to know the language and Greek culture and spend a pleasant time with wonderful people.

This is not only a wonderful place to learn Greek, with fantastic and caring teachers, but also a place to feel connected … More to a community, the Greek culture, while being inspired to keep learning. I was an absolute beginner student when I showed up to the School of Greek Language & Culture in Thessaloniki (itself an amazing, hidden jewel of a city). I didn’t know what to expect. What I found was a great, comfortable learning environment, with two talented, professional, inspiring teachers, in Christos and Maria, with a profound knowledge of the Greek language and culture. They also had a great passion for teaching and bringing students together, so this was much more than language learning, We were placed in flexible groups of students of comparable understanding, then taught in a way that was fun, engaging as well as effective. Through the teaching process itself we experienced contemporary Greek culture and it was uplifting. All the students I met were happy to be there and they came from many countries, including Germany, the United States (I am from California), Spain, Austria, etc., and all were friendly and happy to be there. Several had been coming back for many years, and some had achieved a great mastery of the Greek language. As you notice I loved my experience here, and I am sure you will love it too. In addition, the neighborhood is super safe with a great, friendly coffee shop across the square, and a couple of great Greek restaurants a couple of minutes away. Awesome all around. I’m continuing my Greek learning online and will be coming back next year.

Not only are all the teachers invested in the quality of the learning experience, this school gives you the opportunity to learn Greek in the context of Greek culture. Being able to be a part of this has enabled me to grow in my language skills and gain valuable understanding of Greek culture and make the leap from text book Greek to the language that is spoken every day - and for this i am truly grateful
