​All language teachers at the Hellenic Culture Centre are certified and experienced in teaching Greek as a second and as a foreign language to adults and adolescents. They also have experience in online teaching and they are native speakers of Greek.

Courses are held through the online educational platform Moodle and the educational platform GLOSSA, where all relevant learning materials are uploaded (texts, exercises and activities for all language skills, library) as well as through synchronous Skype meetings, once or twice a week.
 
No special knowledge on technology is required, however a 15-min introductory session is offered for free, in order for the students to familiarize themselves with the use of the platform and Skype. Students are required to have a good internet connection and a headset with a microphone.

Before registering students have to do a grading test, in order for the tutors to check students’ language level and educational needs. Ask us to guide you to the test suitable for you.

INTERNATIONAL GREEK LANGUAGE AND CULTURE SCHOOL IN SANTORINI

After 22 years of teaching Greek as a foreign language on the islands of Ikaria and Lesvos and in Athens, the Hellenic culture centre opened its international Greek language and culture school in Santorini in 2014.  Santorini is one of the most beautiful of all the Greek islands with an emotive and evocative atmosphere.  Our school is based in Megalochori, a traditional village with bright Cycladic colours.
A lively group of people from all over the world speak and express themselves in Greek. They sing, they dance and they participate in the cultural life of the island, inspired by a thirst for knowledge of, and respect and love for, the Greek language and culture. The spirit of Greek tradition and the restlessness of modern Greece come to life through sounds and words expressing universal and timeless values as conceived by the Greek feeling.

​LEARN GREEK THROUGH THE KALEIDOSCOPIO BOOK SERIES

​The books KALEIDOSCOPIO levels B1, C1 and C2 for Greek as a foreign / second language are released by the HELLENIC CULTURE CENTRE www.hcc.edu.gr.
​The KALEIDOSCOPIO series aims at providing non-Greek speaking students with as complete and multifaceted picture of contemporary Greek reality as it is possible.
It aspires to touch upon the anxieties, joys, enthusiasm, fears, achievements and challenges experienced by Greeks today through the presentation of aspects of the Greek society.
Furthermore, the books aim at rendering students capable to communicate and have their knowledge certified by sitting in the Greek Language Certification exams of the Centre of Greek Language (KEG) or other organisations/institutes, which organise, or are about to organise similar Certification exams in accordance to the European Languages Portfolio and the Centre for the Greek Language  levels as described by the presidential decree published in the governmental gazette (Π.Δ. 60/30-6-2010 ΦΕΚ A’ 98) (6 levels).
