Welcome! I’m so happy you’re here.
I’m a native Greek speaker from Thessaloniki, professional teacher of Modern Greek as a Foreign Language and part-time singer of rebetiko and laiko genres.
I help people around the world connect deeply with the Greek language, culture, and music — in a way that’s joyful, soulful, and truly meaningful. With a background in sociology and Gestalt mental health consulting, I create lessons that are safe, encouraging, and tailored to each learner’s personal journey. Having learned languages myself and worked with students of all levels and backgrounds, I understand the challenges you may face—and I can help you overcome them in practical, enjoyable ways.
My goals for you are:
…to be able to speak Greek as comfortably as possible
…to discover the beauty and richness of Greek culture
…to have a rewarding, life-enriching learning experience that goes beyond „school“
To all my past, present and future students, with much love and appreciation for their trust,
Katerina
