My Greek Language Journey, still ongoing !<\/strong> When I decided to move to Greece with my Greek partner, now more than 25 years ago, I was looking forward to putting all my knowledge of Greek words and grammar into practice! My desire to speak Greek fluently and to be able to communicate with Greeks would finally become reality!<\/p>\n

A fluent Greek speaker<\/strong><\/h2>\n

So all those experiences, along with many blunders and daily conversations led to what I am now: a fluent Greek speaker.<\/p>\n

Do you also want to speak Greek?
\n<\/strong>
\nMaybe you also have been learning Greek for some years, but you have the feeling you will never be able to become fluent and need a boost? You do not have a Greek mother-in-law to help you, but you would love to have lessons as if you were in a Greek family environment?<\/p>\n

This is one of the reasons why we, Maya and Dimtiris, founded the Omilo Greek Language and Culture School<\/a>.
\n<\/strong>At Omilo you can enroll for an intensive Greek language course<\/a>, at various locations in Greece<\/a>, where „learning to speak“ is at the forefront and exploring the Greek culture is always on the program. All this, with a family feel!<\/p>\n

I wish you good luck with your Greek language journey. \u039a\u03b1\u03bb\u03ae \u03b5\u03c0\u03b9\u03c4\u03c5\u03c7\u03af\u03b1!

PS. If you are not able to travel to Greece or prefer to learn Greek online<\/a>,\u00a0 from your home, this is also possible with Skype lessons.<\/p>\n

Apart from private lessons, based on my own experiences as a Greek Language learner, in combination with the native Greek teachers at Omilo<\/a>, we created an online Greek Starter Kit<\/a> for the beginners levels in Greek.
\nWith this course, you will be able to start communicating in Greek from day 1, and lose your fear to speak Greek. It is all possible, even with limited knowledge of grammar.
\nIf you do not know the Greek alphabet yet, do not worry. Included in the Greek Starter Kit, you also find the Greek Alphabet Course.<\/a>
\n\ud83d\ude42\u00a0 When you know the Alphabet, then we take care to bring you to the next stage, with the basics in grammar, as well as everyday vocabulary you need in Greece.<\/p>\n
