Little conversation. Another issue was that the classes moved quickly without having assimilated basic concepts. School had very few students. Outside of the beginner level the rest of the classes had only one or two students.

Zoe was a great teacher. It was fun, and the way the material was taught more than compensated for the relatively poor textbook. I was also lucky with the other course participants.
Negative aspects
This textbook is not suitable for self-study.

Additional information
Positive aspects of school
Friendly and approachable director and secretary. Demanding but good teacher, who spoke perfect English (C2 level), so we could solve Greek problems easily.
Negative aspects
Still no results or diploma more than 3 days after leaving school. However, I had been promised an ad hoc e-mail by the headmaster for today (Monday). The first day of lessons also went wrong because of an error by the secretary, for which I think the headmaster is at least politically responsible. Problems with organisation last year too.
Insider tips about what future students should not miss
Sounio, Egina, Loukabittos hill (sunset), interesting districts like Piraeus, Kefisia, easily accessible by metro, and swimming in Kallimaki or Petro Rafti (a bit of searching by public transport).
Other comments
Limitations seen in Corona over the last 2 years. Organisation sometimes leaves much to be desired (see other comments).
City/place
You really need to have archaeological interests. Other nice neighbourhoods and hotspots in the area: Piraeus, Sounio, Egina...
Quality of teaching / language progress
Good programme, very informative, tailored to the student. Too few extra activities (only 1 lecture on 200 years of Greek independence and 1 dinner on the last evening).

Positive aspects of school

Negative aspects
The price is relatively high, but still reasonable.
Other comments
Due to the personality of the headmaster, among other things, the learning effect goes far beyond the normal level of a language school. Culture and history are conveyed almost casually and in a highly authentic manner.
City/place
Number one in Europe.

Very solid with a caring director and secretary. Also teachers who gave the best of themselves. The afternoon conversation was also very instructive to learn simple Greek and to support each other.
Insider tips about what future students should not miss
Beautiful museums, including the lesser known, such as folk instruments and ancient technology. Also a lot of ordinary monuments. Trips to Sounion and the sea (Portarafti) are worthwhile.
Other comments
No.
City/place
Nice city; sometimes a bit busy and then not Corona-proof.
Quality of teaching / language progress
Good functioning of director and management. Excellent teacher, but a little too little attention to the auditory (my weak point) and too many difficult texts with lots of words to look up.

I feel I improved my knowledge of the language even though I'm aware that two weeks is just the minimum. Unfortunately, I couldn't afford a longer period for the time being.

Positive aspects of school
The staff is very friendly and answer all questions. The extra-linguistic program was interesting (the manager is an excellent historian, and can explain a lot ..). Nice Christmas Party with delicious pastries and wine .. Especially I liked the dance class, two times! The lessons (I had two teachers, individual and group lessons) depend a lot on the person. The group lessons were very teacher- and frontal orientated. The use of different media and playful interactive approaches (also between the participants) are hardly available. But that seems to be a general problem in Greece ...
Insider tips about what future students should not miss
Be sure to join the extra program! In Athens itself, Niarchos Center is an architectural highlight, the Kykladishe Museum, small but magnificent archaic sculptures! For jazz fans: Half Note Jazz Club! Cultural program (dance, music, exhibitions): Onassis cultural center! The Musical Instruments Museum, with ancient instruments and music examples/videos regarding the music history on mainland and islands.
Other comments
See above. The lessons could be more "easy-going". The teachers are, especially in one-to-one lessons, open-minded, if you suggest something. So encourage future participants to voice their opinions, suggestions or criticisms on site! The more students do that, the more likely it is that something will change.

I was only there for 3 days, I had very good private lessons, 3 hours every day for 3 consecutive days, they systematically deepened the grammar, which has brought me a big leap forward. Friday was a poetry event, all students read a poem, was also stimulating.
Insider tips about what future students should not miss
You should certainly go to school longer. I go weekly in Switzerland in each case a double lesson, so a targeted deepening is also useful, even if it is only a week.
Other comments
nice and smart director, good teachers, in Athens you can of course see and do a lot; am sure if you go to school there longer you can benefit a lot more.

Other comments
Every day, classes began at 3 o'clock in the afternoon. I would have liked to know that in advance because then I would have prepared myself and planned differently for the week. No activities have been offered to me in Athens. My teacher has given me advice what I could visit. Those were really good. I have not seen any other students at this school, which I thought was strange. I did not really get to know the school itself.

As a beginner I could only get a taste of the language, even after a four week course. But considering what we did in class, this is the best you can get from a language school

the quality of the teaching; the teachers were excellent, they also offered a lot of extra activities like visits to museums, lectures on Greek history, everyday life, invitations to tavernas every second week; excellent teaching material etc.
Other comments
All the members of the staff were very helpful, friendly and could be contacted any time. I think if you want to participate in the lectures you can really learn a lot. I can highly recommend this school and the teachers. You also had the possibility to write a test at the end according to the European language levels.
