Modern Greek lessons in North Shields: first steps and pace
The Greek alphabet looks daunting but takes most adults a couple of weeks: many letters are familiar from maths and science. Then come the three genders, cases and the verb system, introduced gradually by a good tutor.
Greek and Cypriot community schools teach mostly children, so adults in North Shields tend to learn with a private tutor, about £20 to £40 an hour, at a university evening course in larger towns in North East England, or online with a native tutor from around £12. Two lessons a week make holiday conversations easy after six months.

Greek courses: three ways to make progress
One lesson a week over the year
The most common rhythm among adults: it keeps motivation up and moves you up roughly one level a year, provided you practise a little between lessons.
A sprint before an exam
Three or four lessons a week for one to two months, focused on the exam format, past papers and timing.
Pure conversation to build confidence
No textbook: you talk about your day, the news, your job, and the tutor corrects recurring mistakes as you go.
Greek courses in North Shields: common questions
How long does it take to learn Greek for holidays?
For ordering, shopping and simple chats, a term of weekly lessons is enough. To follow a real conversation, count a year or more. A native tutor online is a good way to train your ear before travelling.
Should I learn Modern or Ancient Greek?
Modern Greek if you want to talk to people. Ancient Greek is studied for literature, philosophy or theology and is a different subject, taught by some universities and classics associations.
