Greek
We are delighted to announce the addition of Greek Year 1 to our language provision, with courses starting in January 2025. Greek is a unique and fascinating language, distinct from many others due to its rich alphabet and structure, offering a rewarding challenge to learners.
Studying Greek not only opens doors to a deeper understanding of Greek culture, but is also incredibly useful for travel, whether you’re exploring the vibrant cities or beautiful islands of Greece. By learning the language, you’ll gain the ability to connect more deeply with locals and navigate your travels with confidence.
We are offering both an evening and day time course and if there is sufficient interest, we plan to offer progression courses to allow you to continue your language journey.
