What my students think....
"I learn Greek for interest and fun, and learning Greek with Larri is both of these. Classes are tailored to the people in the group, so I am learning things I actually want to use."
Sue Hornby

"I have been learning Greek with Larri for three years and I have always enjoyed the lessons. Larri familiarises you with much more than just the language and lessons give you a real sense of the country as a whole, as we have looked at music, history,food, politics and lifestyle. Lessons are made relevant to you as we focus on aspects of the language and vocabulary that you will need. Larri is an excellent, friendly, helpful and patient teacher, and her lessons are always fun."
David Boothroyd
Teacher, Southwell Minster School
"I have been with my Greek boyfriend for six years and have had two Greek teachers before meeting Larri. I had resigned myself to never being able to grasp the Greek language. Having learnt Greek as a language in adult life Larri understands what methods of teaching work and what don't. As well as being a brilliant teacher she has also filled me with confidence in my own abilities. Thank you for being an excellent teacher."
Sam Davies
"We have really enjoyed learning Greek with Larri because of the friendly, relaxed atmosphere which has helped us to learn more. Larri is very flexible in her teaching and responds to the needs of the individuals in the classes she teaches. Larri is always encouraging and very supportive."

"Do you enjoy holidaying in Greece? Want to learn more about ancient and modern greek culture? Above all want to get your head round the intricacies and challenges of the language?...Then go for it - have an enjoyable, inspirational time with others like you, guided by our lively teacher, Larri Sideris"

"I wanted to learn Greek for a number of years, but found the language confusing and I was only ever able to pick up a few basic phrases. Larri's approach to teaching has enabled me to read and converse in Greek to a reasonable standard within a short space of time. It's fantastic to be able to communicate in Greek when I am on holiday, and my course has motivated me to continue learning more!"

"I found the course really interesting and beneficial as the Larri made all of us feel involved right from the beginning. Her lessons are fun and stimulating; she always makes sure you are not falling behind and that you understand."
