The Greek Online School Immersion Course for adults will be back in 2024 not once but twice! In spring and summer 2024 we will learn Greek in the historic Anargyrios & Korgialenios School of Spetses!

The Greek Immersion Course will take place twice in 2024. From April 30th to May 8th, we are celebrating Greek Easter in Greece! And August 6th to August 14th, Greek summer in Greece.

It is a 9-day program of Greek classes, cultural activities and of course Greek beach and sun that will immerse students into the Greek lifestyle and will make sure they leave Spetses feeling a lot more confident in everyday Greek conversation.

The Greek Immersion Course will take place in the beautiful island of Spetses in one of the most historical and important buildings in Greece, the Anargyrios and Korgialenios School of Spetses right at the heart of the popular island, home of the mighty Greek heroine Laskarina Bouboulina. Spetses is a cosmopolitan island close to Athens with breathtaking beaches and a picturesque town right at the heart of the Argosaroniko.

The course consists of daily 3-hour Greek language classes with our School’s qualified teachers and evening cultural activities that mean to bring students closer to the Greek lifestyle, way of living, civilization and of course provide them with the opportunity to use the Greek language in real-life situations. Lessons will take place in the historical and traditional classrooms of the Anargyrios and Korgialenios School of Spetses.

The Greek Course is for people who are over 18 years of age and for any level of Greek. It is an ideal opportunity for people who do not speak any Greek or for those who wish to become more confident and fluent in Greek. This is a course you may attend on your own, with your friend or friends, partner or family members. The Anargyrios and Korgialenios School of Spetses hosts visitors in single or double rooms and even flats for families of larger groups of people.

Combining tradition and technology. Our dynamic and interactive teaching and learning approach is developed upon traditional ways of learning and the use of the latest educational technologies. Students learn techniques to make the best use of their grammar and vocabulary generated knowledge, to communicate in Greek with more and more confidence.

Is it all Greek to you? No problem at all! The course is for total beginners and intermediate students alike. Students will be placed in the appropriate level after completing a placement test. It consists of daily 3-hour Greek language classes with our School’s qualified teachers and evening cultural activities that mean to bring students closer to the Greek lifestyle, way of living, civilization and of course provide them with the opportunity to use the Greek language in real-life situations.

Books and apps. Our material, created by our experienced teachers and academic advisors, has been designed to fit the needs of our learners. Digital material, folk songs, movies and short videos are used to create bespoke content for our students’ learning applications, provided by the school. We love our applications because they make Greek easy and even more appealing to our learners.

Small class size. Classes are small, with an average of 8-12 students per class, to give all participants enough space to speak and interact with the material, their classmates and their teacher.

All applicants are invited to a one-2-one call with a member of our team. These meetings give us the chance to get to know you better and give you the opportunity to ask us anything that might concern you.

A few days before your arrival in Spetses, we invite all learners to an online meeting. In this sparking session, learners meet each other through ice-breaking online activities and we give our learners an idea about our interactive group learning techniques. This online meeting is your “first stop” during the amazing learning and cultural journey in Spetses.
