  • Course Description

  • The purpose of this course is to improve the students' ability to understand, speak, and write in Greek. Beginners Greek I and II courses are required for a student before a student registers for this class. If a student has a prior knowledge of Greek, he should contact me in order to determine an appropriate placement. Along with improving our communication skills we will be revisiting grammatical and vocabulary issues so as to refresh our knowledge of the Greek language fundamentals. During our sessions we will be reading portions of a Greek text, we will be translating, and discussing it in Greek. Along with all the above we will be discussing several aspects of Greek lifestyle so that the students may acquire a well-rounded knowledge of Greek language and culture.
  • You will also have pop quizzes on the discussed material.


  • Course Requirements

    • Daily preparation of the assigned material is required and necessary. This will also help you succeed in your quizzes and exams.
