About Regina
Native speaker of Greek and qualified teacher, I have worked as a Greek tutor and GCSE examiner in the UK and Greece. My additional experience as a Violin and EFL teacher in both countries at various language schools and summer schools has given me valuable insight on students' needs and interests.
I have been preparing students from all over the UK for GCSE and AS. All my students have achieved A or A* in their exams (references upon request).
Also, I am delivering lessons to adults who want to start learning or improve their Greek. I have short-term students, who afterwards were able to use their Greek on their very first visit to Greece or Cyprus, as well as long-term students whose progress and enjoyment I am excited to witness in our lessons. They are all passionate about learning the language and in our lessons they are encouraged to use it from the very beginning.
I have British adult students who have been visiting Greece for a number of years and wish to learn/develop their Greek in order to improve their communication with the locals.
Several of my students have Greek partners and so they are learning Greek to be able to communicate with each other, as well as with family and friends.
With students of young age, born and raised in London, second generation Greek, I work on building their confidence in speaking mainly through a variety of fun activities, such as games, songs, role-playing, flash-cards, story-telling.
With students of Primary and Secondary school level, I follow the Greek Curriculum and the books provided by the Greek Ministry of Education supplementing with extra material when necessary. All skills implemented.

Native speaker of Greek with 15 years teaching experience.
I am enthusiastic and passionate about offering my students the opportunity to explore the maximum of their potential and achieve success.
My lessons are communicative and include all skills, with emphasis on building up students' confidence in speaking. Due to my 20 years' experience in the education sector, I have the ability to address my students` interests and adapt to their needs from the first lesson.
As I teach all sorts of nationalities, cultural references is one of the most important components of my lessons as it is proven to be an enjoyable and most effective learning strategy. I have a wide range of material to choose from, including video, audio, flashcards and other games.
My students benefit from my knowledge of music and experience as music educator as I can easily connect learning language to Greek fun songs. This helps them learn and memorise specific language areas, such as vocabulary, phrases, numbers, or idioms.
A variety of online tools and interactive material make the sessions fun and productive. The material I use include textbooks for learning Greek as a foreign language, videos, audios, pictures, audios, online websites etc.
Online lessons are time and cost effective. They take place at the comfort of your house and you would only need good internet connection!
Learning languages opens up exciting opportunities. Speaking Greek is a challenging, but incredibly rewarding, experience!

Perfect! Regina has exceeded all my expectations of my Greek lessons She is a natural teacher: knowledgeable and interesting as well as reassuring and engaging. Her explanations are always clear and meticulous. She shows patience and more more importantly the ability to notice what aspects of my Greek speaking and writing need addressing. She listens carefully!
It is a thoroughly enjoyable experience being taught by a teacher who understands the needs of her pupil so well.Perfect! Regina has been my tutor now for nearly two years: the lessons are so enjoyable and i have learnt so much. My lessons have been on zoom from Greece and but it feels like we are in the same room. It is nice to have a close connection with Greece - she tells me about the weather and what's going on. I can now hold a conversation with a native Greek and that is all thanks to Regina. I would thoroughly recommend signing up with her.
Perfect! Regina is a brilliant tutor! My husband (48) and son (10) have been doing Greek classes with Regina for over two years. As well as what you would expect from a well qualified and excellent language teacher (vocab learning, grammar, reading and writing comprehension, developing an ear for the language etc), Regina works with a pedagogy of meeting the student where they are at, and has made various excellent suggestions about suitable resources and methods for learning that suit each of them. She has also has instilled confidence in both and their abilities to learn Greek. She is patient and makes classes fun. This has transformed our regular visits to Greece and given both father and son independence to navigate everyday Greek - with the knock on effect that I get a lie in ;-) I couldn't recommend Regina more highly!
Perfect! Regina is an excellent tutor. We are so happy to have found Regina at such short notice to help support my 15 year old daughter with her Greek. My daughter is always happy and focussed in her sessions with Regina. Regina is a very polite and knowledgeable individual, adapts to the needs of the individual. Lessons are always structured and will make the lessons fun. My daughter is once again feeling much more confident in her Greek and that's thanks to Regina!
Perfect! I've been learning Greek with Regina as an adult beginner for two years and I consider myself extremely lucky that I found her. On top of being very personable, both her knowledge and teaching style are excellent. I'd highly recommend her to adults and I can imagine she'd be fantastic at teaching children as well.
Perfect! I cannot recommend Regina highly enough.
I am second generation Greek Cypriot, and my daughter has an Irish Canadian father. She knew a little Greek from myself and her grandmother (mainly food related) and had attended a community Greek school on Saturdays when she was very young until the age of 6. When the first lockdown happened and we were stuck at home, we decided it was a good opportunity for her to re-engage with learning Greek and we found Regina to give her a one-hour online lesson a week. My daughter was eleven years old at the time and in Year 7.
A couple of years later, as my daughter approached Year 10, we began discussing the possibility of her sitting the Greek GCSE. The priority was for her to be able to converse and understand the language well, and I believed that by working towards the exam it would help to give her focus.
At the end of Year 10 (summer 2023), my daughter sat the GCSE exam and achieved a grade 8. We were beyond proud.
This achievement would not have been possible without Regina's expert teaching, patience, and understanding of the exam structure. Most importantly, Regina made the lessons fun and engaging, and her encouragement led to my daughter falling in love with the language.
Regina was always very positive and kind towards my daughter and she was always very responsive to any questions or queries I had, especially in the lead up to the exams.
My daughter and I now talk and message each other in Greek every day and she has been able to build and maintain relationships with second cousins in Cyprus. Most importantly she gets extra brownie points from her grandmother, who is over the moon that her granddaughter can speak Greek with her fluently.Perfect! As a second-generation Cypriot marriage to a non-Greek, it’s difficult to teach my children Greek at home. Our first serious attempt involved our children attending Greek school on Saturday mornings at the nearest Greek Orthodox Church. This was an unmitigated disaster as the school predominantly caters to children who have recently immigrated to London from Greece or whose parents are fluent Greek speakers. My children felt overwhelmed and frustrated and learned practically nothing. Cue Regina who has been teaching them online for a couple of years. Regina has the ability to engage with children of different ages at the appropriate level and more importantly, she gets the balance between fun and structure just right. It’s wonderful to see my children‘s Greek gradually improving. All we need to do now is practice more in between lessons… and get daddy signed up for lessons too!
Perfect! Regina is great!! Slowly easing me into learning Greek.
Perfect! Regina has really helped progress my Greek from beginner stage as an adult learner. Regina teaches with a great mix of both conversation and grammar with a range of teaching materials. Regina is very patient and has been very helpful on lesson times to fit around working schedule. I would definitely recommend to anyone who wants to learn Greek.
Perfect! Regina is a wonderful tutor. She is friendly, thorough, well-prepared and very responsive to the individual needs of the student. She listened carefully to my objectives and quickly helped me meet them, so that I was able to go to Greece and communicate in the specific circumstances I described to her. We worked on vocab, grammar, cultural contexts, pronunciation, etc. I highly recommend her and plan to continue learning with her in the future!
Perfect! Regina is an absolutely outstanding Greek teacher - we could not recommend her more highly. She has been teaching our teenage children (four cousins), and they adore her lessons. Regina makes the lessons fun and interesting, for example learning through songs. She is highly organised, providing written materials that summarise the content of the lessons, and her fascinating etymological insights have been particularly appreciated! Regina is also highly flexible in her approach - receptive to each person's needs. Thank you, Regina, for your effective and inspiring teaching!
Perfect! I started my lessons at the start of lockdown and I'm having a great time! Regina is patient with me and has fitted around my irregular schedule which is great! We do conversational and grammar which is very helpful and she gives me plenty of things to do in-between lessons. I'd would definitely recommend to anyone who wants to learn Greek, or just go on their holidays to Greece and wants to speak to the locals. Learning new languages should always be fun and this definitely has been :)
Perfect! I started my lessons with Regina at the beginning of lockdown and I have to say they really have brought me a lot of joy during what has been a crazy time. Regina has so much patience and is able to adapt her way of teaching to my learning needs. More specifically because I am dyslexic and very visual in my learning style, she quickly took this on board and ensured to address this throughout our lessons. Furthermore I have a lot of confidence issues with learning a foreign language but due to Regina being so encouraging and positive I actually now both enjoy and look forward to our lessons. I really can't recommend Regina enough as a teacher.
Perfect! Engaging lesson delivery that mixes general conversation with thorough technical explanations with also learning about wider Greek culture. In a year she's got me from knowing zero Greek to being confident with the basics. She's also been great at keeping my motivation up which is much needed for such a difficult language. With the lockdown right now and not being able to see anyone outside my house my lesson with Regina feels more like learning with a friend rather than a teacher!
Perfect! My 9-year old daughter has been having regular Greek language lessons with Regina for over a year now. We cannot praise her enough for effort, consistency and keeping these lessons engaging and appropriate. Thank you for all your patience Regina.
Perfect! I began learning Greek to just get a few basics words and phrases for my travels, but have loved my lessons with Regina so much that I have continued learning with her. I hope to carry on as long as she will have me! The lessons are well guided and time is taken to help me make my Greek conversational and relevant to the things I may encounter in various situations. I have also learnt to read and write, which has far surpassed my expectations from when I initially began. Regina takes real care over homework and tasks set outside of class, which is really key to my learning. Studying Greek with Regina also allows me to access cultural references in Greece, which I would never be able to get using just an app or trying to self teach. More than anything, I look forward to speaking with Regina every week, as she is so upbeat and interesting to talk to!
Perfect! After 18 months of tuition, I think I can say with some authority that Regina is a fantastic Greek tutor and a lovely person. First of all, she is very available and accommodating to try to come up with times for lessons that suit my busy schedule. In terms of her teaching, she has the knowledge and flexibility to adapt her teaching style and method to the needs of the student, and as I've improved and wanted to explore more complex grammar she has skilfully interwoven that into the lessons, as well as leaning more to the speaking side when I needed that.
At that price, it's a steal and you won't regret choosing Regina for your Greek lessons!Perfect! I've been taking adult conversation classes with Regina over Skype for 18 months.
Prior to starting classes, I'd been with my Greek partner an embarrassing length of time without having learnt much Greek; I’d also had a bad experience in a group class run in my local city, which was entirely focussed on grammar. Both of these things had led to me being insecure and tentative about getting started! Regina was able to quickly help me get past this, and focus on building up my spoken Greek. She has always planned classes on topics which are useful and relevant for me, and has dosed up the grammar in bitesize amounts along the way, and keeping my progress going.
Each class is well thought through, supported by varied materials, and includes different types of exercises, some online, some from a textbook, some she's created herself. She's been happy to vary these to fit what best suits my style of learning. I have a busy work life, and Regina has been flexible in setting up our classes at convenient times, and is comfortable adapting each session on the cuff based on whether I've had time to do any homework (or not!).
Overall, Regina is a talented and highly qualified tutor, she is genuinely friendly and interested in engaging on a personal level with her tutees. She’s been supportive in her approach, and I've really enjoyed all our classes, and how far I've progressed. If you’re looking for a tutor, look no further and send her a message!Perfect! Great teacher, easy to work with :-)
Perfect! I started my Greek tutoring lessons with Regina in January this year. At first, I had my doubts about taking online tutoring classes as I was unsure how effective it would be but Regina has been such an incredible teacher. She is patient and an expert in her teaching methods. She goes step by step- first covering basics like grammar rules and then starting to incorporate examples and dialogue making it easier for me to follow and remember. When I have questions, she always takes the time to explain and ensure I understand. After I complete exercises, she provides feedback so I can learn from my mistakes. Given these lessons are for my personal benefit, we do not use a structured schedule of topics but instead, she listens to what topics interest me and builds lessons and exercises to accommodate me. She is always willing to be flexible with her schedule and always lets me know in advance in case we need to reschedule for an alternative date. She responds quickly via email and always sends lesson notes for my review which are extremely helpful. I have been having a wonderful experience so far with Regina and looking forward to many more lessons with her!
Perfect! Regina is a talented and inspirational teacher. She started tutoring our daughter for her Greek GCSE exam a month ago. Not only we are extremely pleased with our daughter’s progress in the Greek language but also very impressed by Regina’s enthusiasm and dedication. She is truly gifted in what she does. Regina makes the tutor-student interaction meaningful and effortless from the first moment. She has the talent of tailoring the tutoring to the educational needs and the personality of the student. Her lessons are relevant, effective and a lot of fun! We are very grateful for her help and feel very lucky to have found her!
- Regina's response :Evi contacted me about her daughter, Elektra, who wished to prepare for her Modern Greek GCSE exams. Elektra is very clever and a conscientious student. Working with her is a pleasure as she’s fun during the lesson, mature in her thinking and always on time!
I feel pretty confident to say that her progress so far has shown she will achieve excellent marks in her exam.

I would definitely recommend Regina as a teacher. Regina invested time and effort to get my shy son's interest and in essence lure him into the lessons.She was patient and creative using different material (songs,games,drawings,letter cards) to introduce new concepts, motivate and challenge him.Lessons were a combination of structured and fun activities which worked very well.Regina was very professional but also very personal in her approach.Her enthusiasm & dedication are evident
Regina is easy to work with, and creates very engaging lessons for her students from the start. She truly understands and adapts to the student's learning style, noting the differences between adult and children learners, and paying careful attention to why the student wants to learn. I often don't realise how much I am learning because the lessons are so much fun. I feel increasing confidence not only in my ability to understand and speak Greek, but in my understanding of the country and the culture.
I have had Regina teaching me Greek for over 3 years. I have been always very impressed with her level of professionalism, enthusiasm and flexibility. She has been able to adapt the structure of the lessons to my evolving needs always bringing interesting and engaging content and using a multi-media approach. I have always looked forward to our lessons!
Regina created fun lessons for my children aged 5 and 7. I was amazed to see them from not speaking Greek much to full understanding and making simple sentences within a few months. The games and music she used to motivate and challenge them worked really well! We're all very happy with Regina's teaching and would definitely recommend her!
I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Regina as a teacher. The lessons she put together were well-structured and fun, and I really felt that they were personalised to me and my speed of learning. Regina was very patient, and would happily spend longer on the things I struggled with. Having free conversation at the start of the lesson was not only practical but really gave me an indication of how I was progressing with the language. Couldn't be happier!
I can recommend Regina as a teacher. She was very knowledgeable, warm and flexible to my needs as a student. I only had a few lessons before visiting my husband's family in Crete and I wish I had started earlier.
