FAQ
Is Greek an easy language to learn?
Greek is not the easiest language for English speakers to learn. With a different alphabet and millennia of history, Greek presents a number of challenges. However, you do have an advantage! About 25% of the English language is derived from Greek words, so you may find learning vocabulary a little easier—and strengthen your English at the same time!
The benefits of learning Greek are well worth the effort. Ancient and modern literature, philosophy, histories, and religious texts make learning Greek a rewarding, worthwhile process. The long history of the Greek language assures that whatever your interests, there are Greek thinkers, writers, and artists who have contributed to our modern culture and understanding. Working with a certified, one-on-one Greek teacher with a personalized course of study is the very best way to ensure success, and Greek is well worth the effort to learn.
How do you read Greek?
Greek is read from left to right, as with most Western languages. There are no silent letters, so it is read exactly as it appears on the page. Accents mark stressed vowels. As you become more fluent, reading will become easier and more fluid.
Our certified Greek teachers can help you develop the skills necessary to read and speak Greek with ease. Combining your hard work with the expertise of our tutors will help you reach your goals and unlock a diverse, rich, and wonderful world.
