Greek Private Lessons

Greek private lessons, or one-on-one teaching makes it possible for you to learn the Greek language at your own pace. Whatever your need—be it preparing for a specific goal, focusing entirely on developing your speaking skills, or having flexible hours—we can design just the right course for you. A private Greek course at Omilo offers you tailor-made lessons according to your needs, interests and preferences. Let us know how much time you have, what your Greek language level is, your expectations, your learning style and your budget, and we will be happy to discuss with you a program that will suit your needs.

If you are looking for an intensive learning schedule, you can have a look at the packages below.

About the course

Greek courses at Omilo help students develop all four language skills: speaking, listening reading and writing. During the lessons, the teacher will guide you in acquiring and practicing both vocabulary and grammatical structures, keeping a balance between theory and practice. “Speaking the language” is in general something our teachers try to focus on, unless you prefer a different approach.

Apart from learning the Greek language quickly and effectively, with a private course you can choose the topics, vocabulary, or grammar that interest you the most in order to achieve any specific objectives you may have for personal use or in your profession. You can of course discuss your goals and expectations with the Omilo teacher, who will personalize a program for you accordingly.

Good to know

For regular private lessons in Athens (usually 1 or 2 times/weekly)

• One teaching hour = 55 minutes
• In case you need to cancel a scheduled lesson, you must inform your teacher by email, at the latest 48 hours before the scheduled time. In case you cancel later than 48 hours before the lesson, this lesson will be charged.
• The hours of every contract should be completed within six months after contract date (the months July & August are not counted for courses in Athens as we do not offer private lessons during this period in Athens).
• Course materials: after your placement test, the teacher will inform you as to which book/materials will be needed  and  let you know whether or not it is necessary to buy a textbook. All recommended  textbooks can be found either at the Omilo school (at € 30,00 per book) or at almost any bookshop in Greece.

For the packages – intensive weeks of private lessons  (more than 6 hours per week)

• One teaching hour = 55 minutes
• If you need to cancel a lesson during your stay, you can ask your teacher at least 24 hours in advance,  if he/she has availability to do the lesson  another day/time during the week. However, if the teacher has no availability due to his/her teaching programme, the lesson will be charged.
  If you cancel a lesson less than 24 hours in advance, or the same day, the lesson will be charged.
• For the weekly “Packages”: the programs are organised per week and the course materials are included in the price. For prices, see above. It is important to note that due to the intensive nature of these programs and the commitments of our teachers, private lessons cannot be canceled once they commence. Consequently, the payment and cancellation procedures for these private lessons are the same as those applied to our 1- and 2-week intensive courses.

Language levels

Private lessons are available for all language levels. The teacher adapts the course according to the language needs of each student. By visiting our language levels page, you will get a better idea about the differences between one language level and another. If you do not know your exact level, you can ask us to send you a test by email.
