Course Overview

Online Greek Levels 5&6 is an Elementary Greek course for students who are already in the process of learning Greek. This is an intensive Greek course allowing you to take two Greek levels in 6 weeks and progress more quickly. Online Greek Level 5&6 requires that you have previously studied Greek Level 4 or a course of at least 48 class hours. If you’re unsure of your level, then check our level chart.

Our Online Greek language classes take place via Zoom with a qualified, experienced teacher and fellow students. The interactive lessons emulate our face-to-face classes, and via teacher screen-sharing, students are able to experience a live classroom environment. From vocabulary activities and covering grammar points on the white board, to listening exercises, file sharing and ‘break-out rooms’ to practise speaking with classmates, students can learn without leaving the comfort of their homes. Take a look at an example of one of our online classes in this video.
