The size of the class also plays a role. The smaller the class, the greater your chance of being successful, which is why our Greek courses are limited to a maximum of six persons. Of course, we also offer mini groups and one-to-one lessons, which further enhance your chances for learning Greek successfully.
The success of an Greek course is almost always determined by the competence and involvement of the instructor. That's why IH Berlin PROLOG only employs native Greek speakers with many years of classroom experience in adult education.
Listening, speaking, reading and writing - these four basic skills are the foundation for our Greek lessons. With the help of role playing, group discussions and conversations in the class, your knowledge of vocabulary, sentence structure and expressions can be noticeably improved.

The Greek Language - A brief History
Modern Greek is one of the 21 official languages of the European Union. It is spoken by about 14.5 million native speakers, of which about 10.5 million live in Greece.
The other native speakers are spread throughout 35 other countries. On Cyprus, Greek is also an official language, next to Turkish. It is also recognized as a local official language or academic language.
Modern Greek belongs to the Indo-European language family and is descended from Classical Greek. Philologists usually refer to Modern Greek as of 1453 (the fall of Constantinople). Within the Indo-European language spoken today, Greek is considered an isolate, which means that no other language is closely related to it.
Until a few years ago, Modern Greek was divided into Dimotiki ( Δημοτική ), the vernacular Greek spoken today, and Katharevousa (the purified), which tends to reflect Classical Greek. Near the end of the Papadopoulos dictatorship, the Katharevousa form used as the official language was ended by a parliamentary order and today no longer plays a role other than in inscription and local names. The Dimotiki variation has prevailed as the spoken and written language in all aspects of life.
Modern Greek is comparatively uniform and only has a few dialects. A visitor to Greece is almost never confronted with a Greek citizen who cannot express themselves in Standard Modern Greek.
