Students build upon and increase listening, speaking, reading, and writing skills in the target language. Students develop their Greek proficiency through extensive, spontaneous interaction with a native-level instructor in the language.

Students develop cultural awareness and become prepared to encounter real-life situations outside of the classroom through discussions of cultural customs and behavior, watching videos, conducting internet research, and reading authentic materials written in the target languages.

Tutoring and Test Prep lessons are for students who would like additional support outside of the classroom. Whether tutoring for current coursework or preparing for an upcoming AP or Fluency exam, our native-level instructors are here to help!

Conversational Lessons are for students who are looking to expand their language skills. Heading to a new country and want to be prepared? Need language skills for a new job? With Conversational Lessons, you’ll learn to converse with a native-level speaker.

Innovative learning activities, students directed projects, and unique assessments engage students in the learning process. Instructors take notes during each lesson to share with students and evaluate students over time based on personal progress. We don’t believe in timed exams. We do believe in giving students the opportunity to present what they have learned in a format and environment in which they are comfortable. Final projects are presented to the instructor during the final lesson of the course along with any required written components.

Enrolling your student in a LanguageBird course offers greater freedom and flexibility for their learning than what is typically found in a traditional brick-and-mortar high school and middle school environment. All of our faculty are experienced instructors in the field of education, not just native-level speakers. Our trained, experienced instructors love to work with high school and middle school students. Students meet with the same instructor building a relationship and skills. Students use our courses to make more room in their daily school schedule to get ahead, make-up a class, or study a language not offered at their school.

One of the first things that comes to people’s minds when it comes to online Greek classes is that it is a difficult language to understand. But what if we told you that, as a native-level English speaker, you are already speaking some Greek yourself? Around 25% of the English vocabulary has an origin in the Greek language. Common use words like ‘dinosaur’, ‘phobia’, ‘planet’ or even ‘music’ have their roots in this fascinating language. So even though Greek is a complex language (which one isn’t?), you’re probably more familiar with it than you think. And going back to the roots of those words you already know not only can help you understand Greek but are also a way to understand the deeper meaning behind those words in English (aside from being a quite curious and even entertaining thing to do!).

At LanguageBird, we offer a culturally-immersive experience in which our students learn not only the technicalities of languages but also the beauty and diversity of their countries of origin. They interact face-to-face with native-level instructors who transmit knowledge in their languages, uses and costumes. So at the end, not only does your child understand the language per se, but also how to successfully communicate with people in those cultures. This learning method also comes with access to multiple learning tools: our resource library,‘The Nest’ videos, and the advantage of scheduling their online language classes to learn at their own pace.

Many of the words we use every day have their roots in the Greek language. People working in fields like medicine, math, chemistry, astronomy or philosophy are especially familiar with greek-rooted terms. So taking online Greek classes while attending school can be an advantage at the moment of following those careers after graduation. Religious studies or theology are also fascinating careers in which it is required to learn Greek as well as other ancient languages like Latin or Arabic.

Aside from the academic goals, learning Greek can also be beneficial in your child’s personal life. Considering that 0.4 percent of the current population of the United States has Greek ancestry, learning the language can be either a great way to connect with such ancestry or to friends and even significant others with Greek roots. Not to mention the benefits at the moment of travelling to one of the most beautiful, unique, and historically-rich countries in Europe.
