About Filisia
I love teaching and interacting with different cultures. This is why I chose this profession and I am very happy to have helped dozens of students to speak or improve their Greek, to have confidence when they speak with their family or when they visit Greece and of course to succeed in exams. I have a Master's Degree in teaching Greek as a second/foreign language from the University of Athens and I speak fluently English and Spanish. I have worked since 2005 in multinational classes of 20 people, with children, but mostly I have tutored many people from around the world online. Totally they are more than 100 people.

The lessons can vary always depending on the goals and the type of each student. I never use the same plan for every student, this is why I do not rely only on textbooks. I use them as a basis but always enriched with much extra material. I also combine traditional methods with more modern techniques: examples: * someone who starts from scratch needs a solid grammar basis, but focusing on vocabulary and communication is a priority. So, the student starts to use the language from the very first class, feeling confident. *textbooks do not offer a natural input, so I am trying to provide that to a student by modifying the material tailored to his/her needs and combining it with extra tools, like videos, real ads, etc. *speech acts! Very essential. From the basic level, students must know how to ask for something, how to give directions, suggest, deny, ask for permission, etc. *an example of focusing on communication and combining grammar is the following: we need to learn a new structure in Grammar that is usually presented in books listed in tables. That is a traditional method but combined with a more inspired approach, such as using them to learn how to ask for information, it makes it more communicational and of course more efficient. *Quizzes from the beginning and podcasts, films, and series to work on for more advanced levels.

Perfect! Filisia is an absolute pleasure to work with - she is very motivating, kind and supportive. Combined with a practical approach which is also demanding I feel like I am learning a tremendous amount. Filisia also provides support outside of scheduled lessons which is really amazing - I would highly recommend her for learning Greek!
Perfect! Very friendly and happy to make me a personalised lesson plan. Ευχαριστώ!
Πολύ!Perfect! Very clear and great fun
Perfect! I've been having lessons for just over 6 months now and would highly recommend Filisia! She is patient, extremely helpful and provides lot's of different resources to help you learn including textbooks, podcasts and her Instagram page full of tips/advice. She has also been very flexible with lessons needing to be moved around occasionally/last minute.
Perfect! Very flexible and willing to meet

Perfect! Filisia is exceptionally well prepared for every lesson which is personalised for my requirements. She also makes the experience of learning very enjoyable by varying the methods and keeping it fun.
Perfect! I am a beginner at Greek and Filisia has adapted her teaching to my level of understanding. She creates a warm and welcoming learning environment. I am learning lots in each lesson.
Perfect! Excellent teacher! Very professional and knows how to teach you quickly the language.
Perfect! I initially signed up for Greek lessons with Filisia as a way to learn some basic Greek before traveling. But after starting, I enjoyed our lessons so much so that I decided to continue even after leaving Greece. Filisia has great energy during our lessons and has catered to my learning style from the beginning. I am continually impressed and look forward to learning more from her! All in all, a wonderful experience.

I met Filisia in Athens through a common friend and when I decided to do Skype lessons in December 2020, I quite naturally turned to her and feel very lucky that she could take me on as a student. She is such a warm, lively, intelligent person and a very passionate teacher. She wants her students to progress continuously on their discovery of the beautiful, but difficult Greek language and she does not spare any effort to help us along. She quickly realised where my difficulties lay and provided me with homework that she had come up with especially for me and I can honestly say that I made a lot of progress in the eight months she has been teaching me. I have been learning Greek for quite a few years now and Filisia is very good at not only recognising which aspects of the language she needs to put emphasis on, but also to teach me every day colloquial Greek so that I can understand when people speak to me. These expressions are not found in textbooks!
I cannot thank her enough for her commitment, positive feedback and encouragement and would recommend her whole-heartedly. She is an excellent teacher - a real super prof!
Filisia is an amazing teacher, I have been taking lessons with her for the past 3 years and saw a massive improvement in my Greek language skills. She has worked with me to develop my areas of weakness while still focusing on all areas of my learning. I have learnt a great deal with Filisia and would highly recommend her. She has also been extremely helpful with sourcing books and materials for our lessons. Filisia has a positive approach to teaching, she is patient and encouraging. She has in-depth knowledge about the history of the language which is an added benefit to better understand and learn it. She is fluent in English which has allowed her to explain things more clearly creating a better learning experience for me. It has been a pleasure learning with Filisia and I believe she is one of the best teachers for Greek.
As a language educator myself, I feel extremely lucky and honored to have been a student of Filisia's. Her philosophy and methods are an excellent blend of 21st Century skills along with some good old fashioned groundwork for understanding syntax and semantics. Her natural approach, providing comprehensible input truly gives learners like myself the confidence to use the language. This is Filisia's goal. She doesn't just teach about Greek. She teaches content through Greek. Her classes are interesting, pragmatic and engaging. I highly recommend Filisia!
I am a german speech therapist and therefore usually sit on the other side of the table ;-).
Filisia impresses me with profound knowledge of her subjekt.
While she creates a very relaxed atmosphere and encourages me to speak, Filisia takes notes and gives me excellent feedback on semantic, phonetic, sytactic and morphematic characteristics of the greek language.
Filisia is well prepared, organized and joyfull.
I can just lean back and enjoy my lesson while Filisia keeps a constant eye and ear on me and helps me to proceed.
There is nothing more I could expect from my greek teacher.
I am very happy a co-student recommended her for private lessons.
I started as a advanced beginner and am an intermediate Student now.
I recommend Filisia for any level.Filisia is a great teacher! She always has a positive mindset, a happy posture. Very flexible when booking classes including when dealing with different time zones which is my case. She quickly understands where a student is lacking more to focus on that area. Filisia adjusts the classes and topics according to what students are looking for and what are their expectations and goals. She quickly creates a learning plan tailored to that student and adapts it according to the student progression. I’m happy with my progression on the Greek language and I totally
Hi Filisia has taught me Greek since 2016. She has seen me through beginners Greek all the way to the intermediate level. I have increased both my written and Conversational Greek beyond the level I expected. She sourced materials from different places for our lessons rather than go with just one book. And she speaks excellent English. I would highly recommend her!
My daughter was the first to discover Filisia and was so enthusiastic about her Greek lessons I also become one of Filisia’s pupils. I have never found learning a language easy but from the very first lesson I was made to feel so positive about beginning the journey to becoming a Greek speaker. Filisia takes you at your own speed to ensure you gain all the building blocks to develop your language knowledge. Alongside learning a language Filisia shares Greek culture and history which enhances every session. I can highly recommend Filisia.
I met Filisia in Athens when I was staying there with a friend for a short while, and I can say that my love for the Greek language only grew with her. She is an excellent teacher, very qualified and knowledgeable, passionate about language and history and eager to help her students know more about Athens. She came to my hotel every morning, having prepared her lessons and also brought me extra worksheets and exercises. Learning with her was fun and exciting. I did not only gain a very good teacher but also a friend in Athens. I was able to learn in a short while more than I could expect from myself. I would recommend her to anyone wanting to learn Greek, at any level. You are guaranteed to make quick progress, especially if you're passionate about Greece and Greek language!
I met Filisia about three and half years ago when I was looking for a tutor to help me learn Greek. I was initially skeptical about having lessons over Skype, but Filisia's approach, teaching style, knowledge and character won me over. Filisia has been an excellent teacher from day one (when I knew almost no Greek). Filisia designs the lessons specifically for the student she is teaching, in my case this ranged from structured grammar lessons backed by material from books to general conversations about day to day life, current affairs, culture, history. She has never come to a lesson unprepared and always knows exactly where we left off the previous lesson. I would recommend Filisia without hesitation to anyone who wants to learn Greek.
Fawzi FaresI was fortunate enough to have Felisia as my tutor last year to help me with my Greek learning. Felisia is a fabulous teacher who is both encouraging and challenging. She is highly perceptive about the needs of her students and easily adapts to accommodate where necessary. Felisia has some lively and creative ideas and resources which are stimulating and inspiring. I have no hesitation in recommending Felisia as a great languages teacher and she us certainly a Superprof!
I studied Greek with Filisia to refresh my Greek. I found her trustworthy and punctual. Filisia is excellant at explaining the Greek language and grammar. She helped me understand and appreciate modern Greek usage.
I have been a student with Filisia for five years and that should say a lot already, I found Filisia through a teaching website. Filisia took me on as an absolute beginner. Filisia structures the lessons to mix up writing, listening and conversation exercises. Filisia takes the time to understand how you learn and also help you with strategies when exercises are difficult. Filisia is so patient and knows when to push you a little - she cares about you and your learning. I have been learning via Skype as I’m in the UK and Filisia lives in Athens. Because Filisia lives in Greece you get to learn a lot about the culture, history etc - she is a very generous teacher. I personally like to have lots of homework and Filisia is happy to send through exercises to build on your lessons and always feeds back so you know where you need to focus on. I would highly recommend Filisia whether you are an absolute beginner learning Greek upto the advanced Level. Anita Henson
Filisia is the best!
She is a wonderful teacher, her methodology is clear, providing solid pillars during the process of understanding the Greek language. With her lessons, we learn how to communicate in Greek, not only learning phrases and words, like other courses I tried before.
She teaches with love and passion for teaching languages, so you can feel and see her dedication and efforts. She always wants to give us the best learning experience.
I am grateful and highly recommend her lessons to anyone who really wants to learn greekI have known Filisia for almost four years and I'm delighted that she is my Greek tutor. Her pleasant nature and her abundance of patience are key qualities that provide a constant source of reassurance to me.
Filisia is a good motivator and can also empathise with my experience of studying a foreign language. Her excellent command of English helps her to communicate well and to explain complex or confusing aspects when they arise. Filisia’s lessons are well planned and she produces additional training aids and exercises tailored to my needs which complement the standard learning materials. She is good at identifying the causes of any difficulties and at developing bespoke solutions to overcome them.
Filisia is an experienced tutor, is very professional and conducts her tutoring in a structured, friendly, and disciplined manner. I am immensely grateful for the constant support and guidance that she has given me in my Greek studies and I am confident that other students will have the same respect that I have for her tutoring skills and qualities. Σε ευχαριστώ πολύ Φιλισία!
Filisia is dedicated, understanding, patient, encouraging and passionate about teaching. Her enthusiasm and knowledge are extremely motivating and I find her methods very comprehensive! I have learnt so much in such a short amount of time thanks to her and I look forward to improving and developing further with her help.
I have been doing long distance lessons with Filisia for over 2 years. She is a wonderful teacher - thorough, reliable, good-humoured, creative and flexible. I would highly recommend her to be your tutor.
I first met Filisia when trying to find a Greek tutor, that was almost a year ago. Ever since our first lesson I knew that this woman would make sure I learned Greek! Filisia's teaching style is a perfect combination of strict and lenient. She will never get angry or frustrated with you when you are stuck - as I have been many times, she will gently coax you to do your best! However, she does expect you to do your homework as it is imperative to learning a language to practice everyday! Filisia is a patient, respectful, and very knowledgable tutor. I would highly recommend her for any tutoring role she offers. She is also a lovely person and having her as my tutor has been wonderful!
I have been learning Greek with Filisia for 3 years now and I would recommend her to anyone that was looking to learn Greek. She is the kindest and most patient tutor I have ever had. I was hesitant at first to do lessons over Skype but it works so well! Filisia is very positive and I always feel like I am making great progress. What I love is I am learning Greek from someone so passionate about the language and culture.
The most amazing tutor I have ever found! Filisia adapts her approach for each individual student, she’s extremely flexible in term of changing the program so it fits your needs and she’s able to recognise and work with your natural strengths and weaknesses.
I have been studying with Filisia for over 1.5 years now at a speed that suits me, and considering I started from not knowing the greek alphabet we have made an extreme progress!
She is also an extremely nice and friendly person, she will support you if you find a task hard and she will always encourage you to try, this is a rare quality that is hard to find!
All in all I would a 100% recommend studying and learning with Filisia!!!I have been studying Greek with Filisia for 3+ years. She is an excellent tutor for at least 4 reasons: 1) she knows the mistakes that English speakers make and has good ways to fix them; 2) she develops individualized lessons to work on the specific areas that give you trouble; 3) she is very creative in the types of learning material she uses - Greek tv advertisements, Greek children’s books and videos, Greek songs, Greek films; and 3) she is extremely patient with correcting mistakes. I couldn’t ask for a better Greek teacher!
