Greek classes in Hereford: Try a class for free
Finding Greek classes in Hereford that are both effective and affordable can be tricky. Classes are typically in groups, meaning you have limited opportunities to speak. On top of this, you’ll often find certain students dominate the conversation, or ask the teacher endless questions!
LanguaTalk offers a more convenient and effective alternative: 1-on-1 online Greek classes with experienced native tutors. You won’t find these tutors available for face-to-face Greek lessons in Hereford. LanguaTalk finds the best tutors from around the world. They offer conversational Greek classes at cheaper rates because they don’t have to travel to you and they often live in countries with a lower cost of living.
Probably you’re thinking: but are online classes really as effective as face-to-face? You can book a no obligation 30-minute trial session (for free with most tutors) and see for yourself. Classes take place via video call, allowing you to communicate with your tutor and share learning materials, as if you were in the same room. And you can book classes for whenever it suits you.
Below, you can filter to tutors who have availability that fits with your Hereford time zone. Then watch videos, check reviews, and book a trial session.

Simos P
Simos P
PhD Candidate in Education, passionate Greek Tutor with 3 years of experience.
Hello everyone!
My name is Simos and I live in the beautiful island of Crete. I was born and raised in Athens, the capital of Greece. I have completed my Bachelor's degree in Greek Philology, specialized in Linguistics and I hold a master's degree in teaching Greek as a second language. I've recently embarked on a new chapter by commencing my Ph.D. journey. This pursuit is driven by my commitment to advancing my understanding of language acquisition and pedagogy, with the ultimate goal of contributing valuable insights to the field. Patience and calmness are my main traits, which help me in teaching. I love hiking, motorcycle rides and my brown labrador, Rocket.
I have 3 years of teaching experience with foreign students and 5 years of experience with local students. I have worked as a teacher in the Greek Counsil of Refugees, helping adult refugees to learn the language and the Greek society. I am familiar with online platforms and tools. My master's degree has provided me essential skills for teaching, such as modern ways of teaching, e-books and lesson plans for every type of student.I like to use the communicative approach in teaching, focusing on language use. My main goal is to design the lessons according to my students needs, so they can be fun and effective at the same time. We are going to interact with authentic texts that involve everyday subjects, such as dialogues, articles, poems and novels so we can add new vocabulary and explain grammar stractures. Greek videos and songs will be widely used to help you improve listening skills, as well as short conversations related with everyday topics. Lessons will be mainly in Greek, regardless of your level, exposing you to situations where you need to speak the language.
Subjects like Greek history, literature, music, tradition are used during the lesson. I strongly believe those who try to learn the language, should also get in touch with the Greek culture. By doing this, students begin to understand the Greek way of thinking and develop a greater connection with the language.
Are you looking for a teacher with passion for the Greek language, able to adapt to your learning needs?
Then you are in the right profile.
When you feel ready for the difficult journey of mastering Greek, book a trial with me and I will do my best to make it easy for you!

Stavroula G
Greek native tutor with more than 8 years experience in teaching modern Greek in Italy
Hello lovely people! Are you ready to learn Greek? DefinItely something more than the usual KALIMERA, KALISPERA, MOUSSAKA? Book a trial lesson with me and see where it leads you.
My very greek name is Stavroula! I graduated from the Aristotle University of Thessaloniki. I have a degree in History. History and languages were my favourite subjects at school and I consider myself lucky to be able to do something I love, that is to help people learn the greek language. I grew up in Athens but life brought me to the Eternal City. In my case, the famous expression that all roads lead to Rome, was true! I've been teaching english and modern greek to italians for the last 8 to 10 years,
As a person who likes to speak concisely, much like the ancient greek saying : " Το λακωνίζειν εστί φιλοσοφείν" which roughly translates to; brevity is the soul of wit, I'll not keep you any longer.
If you have decided to learn Greek, rest assured that I'll do my very best to help and it will be my pleasure! Speaking Greek and English is one of my favourite things, let's have fun together.

Yia sas! Greek native tutor from Corfu with more than 25 years of tutoring experience!
Welcome to my Greek classes! I'm Anna, a native Greek speaker originally from Corfu. I have been teaching Greek for over 25 years now, and let me tell you, it's been quite the journey! I offer lessons in modern Greek conducted in English, French, or Italian. As a TEFL-certified tutor and a member of the Tutors Association with a verified DBS certificate, I provide a safe online learning environment.
My diverse educational background is as varied as the languages I teach, including a diploma in SEN, a Dyslexia Awareness Certificate, a Certificate in Supporting Speech & Language Development in Early Years, a Teaching Assistant Diploma, a Diploma in Health & Social Care, extensive studies in language & linguistics. I have also acquired skills in areas such as Anger Management & Life Coaching, Proofreading & Editing, a degree in Fashion Design, and a degree in Office Management & Organisation. I blend traditional and modern teaching methods to provide you with the tools you need for success. Teaching is not just about grammar and vocab; it's about connecting with people and helping them reach their goals.
Your first lesson will be a friendly chat where we get to know each other and establish a personalised teaching approach. In our sessions, you can expect a warm, relaxed, fun, and supportive learning environment where mistakes are celebrated as opportunities for growth. I believe that language learning should be fun and engaging, so get ready for interactive activities, lively discussions, and plenty of laughter along the way!
In our initial lessons, we'll focus on: Greek alphabet and pronunciation, genders of the nouns, articles, adjectives, basic greetings, and simple conversations. If you're planning a Greek holiday, I can help you with practical situations like introductions, ordering food, and asking for directions. For intermediate and advanced students, lessons will be more intense and varied.
I can't wait to meet you!

Athanasios S
Athanasios S
Linguistics Graduate with 6 years of experience
My name is Thanasis and Greek is my native language. I was born and raised in Greece and I graduated from the University of Athens. I have also lived and studied abroad in both Europe and Asia. I have a Master’s degree in Linguistics. I have been teaching professionally at schools and freelance since 2016. I teach adults students of all levels.
Language is not just my job but my passion, and I feel that teaching languages is what I was born to do. I am a language enthusiast and have studied several languages myself; in fact I am currently studying Hindi so I know first hand the difficulties one faces when studying a foreign language. To make things easier I try to make sure my classes are well planned and effective but also fun. I try to use a mixed method of teaching with the use of a textbook but also podcasts, short movies and audio tracks among others. From my experience most students are mostly interested in speaking so I make sure that at least half of the lesson is dedicated to that. We practice speaking through free conversation, role plays, describing pictures and other types of drills.
If you book a lesson with me, I will assess your current level and try to make sure I plan lessons customized to match your needs and requests.

Frequently Asked Questions
How does participating in a Greek class via video call differ from attending a Greek class in person in Hereford?
Many students initially have reservations about participating in online Greek classes, thinking the experience will be vastly different from in-person classes. However, they often discover that online classes can be just as engaging and effective. In an online Greek class, you’ll interact with your teacher and classmates as if you were all in the same room. The teacher may share resources (like articles or videos) and will collaborate with you in real-time using tools like Google Docs or Dropbox Paper, ensuring an interactive learning environment. The biggest benefit is convenience: there is no need to travel, and you can book lessons for when it suits you.
Are Greek lessons in Hereford more expensive than learning online?
Whilst not always the case, Greek classes in Hereford are typically more expensive than online learning options. This is due to the costs associated with using a classroom, as well as travel time and expenses for teachers. Online classes, on the other hand, eliminate these overheads. Additionally, online instructors often live in countries with lower living costs, which can further reduce the price of online classes.
What's the best way to find conversational Greek classes near me in Hereford?
If you prefer in-person learning over online classes, LanguaTalk might not be the best fit for your needs. For local classes, you can search through community boards or local service listing websites. However, we encourage you to explore the convenience and effectiveness of online classes. You can start with a free trial session to experience the benefits first-hand, such as access to a broader range of experienced teachers and potentially lower costs.
