Greek Language Summer Camp

The Greek Language Summer Camp is a great way for your child to greatly improve their Greek and have fun with other international children. Our program is for children aged 6-15 years and aims to develop children’s speaking skills and boost their confidence when speaking Greek. Young learners are usually faster to learn and grasp foreign languages, especially some aspects of languages like the pronunciation and new vocabulary. This is precisely why close contact with a Greek speaking environment and native Greek speakers is the perfect opportunity for children to engage in the Greek language fast and absorb new skills very quickly. 

Learning objectives

Our 60-hour Greek language camp is in high demand due to its intensive educational program in an unforgettable summer holiday environment. The aim of the camp is to take the child to the next language level by improving their reading, writing, and listening skills, while the main focus remains on conversational Greek. Grammar, reading, and writing are practiced in a fun way that complements the main aim of the course, which is not just to understand Greek, but also to be able to spontaneously react and speak Greek. A booklet is provided to each student with material that introduces them to a new topic every day. 

Lessons also include cross thematic projects and language activities, to increase overall motivation and help students learn faster. Greek language activities vary from role playing, to learning songs, treasure hunts and much more.  Our teachers have lots of great ideas and activities to get children involved and active in their Greek language lessons. The choice of activities is determined by the teacher who will take into account the level, age, interests, personalities and objectives of the group. Cross-thematic projects combine Greek with history, geography, environmental awareness and more.  Educational, fun games such as charades, food-tasting and treasure hunts and more, are included in the program to help children develop their speaking skills in Greek.

Greek Language Camp book

Our team of educators has designed a book for the different levels of our camp learners. The book is called “Μαθαίνω να αγαπώ τα ελληνικά” and is carefully designed with camp vocabulary as well as vocabulary that will help students in daily interactions in Greece. It includes exercises, projects, and language games meant to improve all language skills. It is also designed to familiarize students with topics from Greek mythology, culture, and the environment. Students are provided with a copy of the book each, based on their level of Greek.
