Course Overview
Greek Level 1 Fridays is a Beginners Greek course for students who have never studied the Greek language before. This is a less intensive course than our 6-week Level 1 Greek course, allowing you to ease your way into the language at a slower and more relaxed pace. At the end of the 8-week Level 1 course, students can then join the Level 2 class. If you’re unsure of your level, then check our level chart.
Our Greek language classes take place at our school in Covent Garden with a qualified, experienced teacher and fellow students. Evening language classes at IH London are dynamic and interactive as the emphasis is on spoken communication, which is achieved through lots of group work and role-plays. At the same time, there is systematic work on grammar, vocabulary and pronunciation, so that you can improve on all aspects of the language. Your teacher speaks in the target language throughout, so that you can refine your comprehension and listening skills.
