4worldlovers: The Modern Greek Language Teaching Center of the National and Kapodistrian University of Athens has been functioning since the 1950s, initially with a very limited number of students. In the decades that followed the number of students increased exponentially. The Modern Greek Teaching Center is the largest of its kind in the world. Many of its graduates are today teachers of Modern Greek and Philology at Universities throughout the world, members of the diplomatic corps in their own countries, church leaders, renowned scientists, company managers, respected artists and business professionals.

The aims of the Modern Greek Teaching Center are as follows:

4worldlovers:

The Centre is located in Mets, a residential area of central Athens, about 15 minutes walk from the heart of the city at Syntagma (Constitution) Square. Mets is well-served by public transportation by bus, metro, tram and trolley from many areas of Athens, and is perhaps the greenest area of the city, with parks nearby including the Zappeio and National Gardens, Pangrati Park, and the woods around the old Olympic Stadium where the first modern Olympics were held.


The Centre is affiliated with more than 20 American colleges and universities in offering diverse programs, including Semesters in Greece, summer arts programs, January terms, Maymesters, and other longer and shorter sessions throughout the year.

These university programs have traditionally emphasized Classical, Byzantine and modern Greek history and civilization. Without neglecting this heritage, the Centre also cooperates with departments as diverse as mathematics, geology, health care, and psychology, amongst others, to bring students to Greece on programs which look into the history of their discipline in ancient and modern Greece.

I didn’t know what to expect from this linguistic course but I certainly have not been disappointed! You have organized everything so nicely. We learned, ate, drunk, sang, swam, walked and a lot more all in good spirits. As a language teacher myself I really enjoyed the well-organized set up and the natural, friendly atmosphere. The well-planned yet so relaxing excursions immersed us not just in the beautiful sea but in the culture of this rich island of Chios. Thank you for sharing it all with us and for being so patient! Thank you so much.

The Alexandria Institute program is a fantastic way to study Greek. It offers solid grammatical information interwoven with stories and songs that bring the language to life. Andreas’ knowledge of local Chios history and the larger span of Greek history is vast and he gives generously of his wisdom. Emmi offered us many insights into everyday life in Greece and introduced us to the words that make up the interactions we can expect to have with others as we live and travel in Greece. Together they demonstrate exceptional skills as highly trained teachers, able to adapt the lessons to meet the needs of each student. All of this was part of a schedule that took us out of the classroom into the beauty of Chios where we experienced the best the island has to offer. Swimming, delicious traditional food and visits to historic sites enriched the program. And best of all, everything was seasoned with laughter and merriment. As a professional teacher I recommend these programs as some of the best I have experienced and I hope to continue my studies with Alexandria Institute in the future!

I greatly enjoyed Alexandria Institute’s Greek language course. We worked together in perfect harmony. The culture course was also of great interest. The staff of Alexandria Institute are really great. I would recommend it to all those who wish to study Greek language in a lovely environment, where problems are solved immediately in case of need, and where they can enjoy relax and the natural kindness and friendship of the Greek People.


Dear Irini & Andreas, I would like to wholeheartedly thank you for these delightful weeks with you and with such an amazing group of extremely intelligent, wise and interesting colleagues. Andreas, you truly went out of your way to make every detail of this experience perfect. You are both knowledgeable of Greek but especially of people and their psychology.

I’ve been studying Greek for twenty years. Now, apart from this, I can also understand what the Greek songs are saying. I’m happy, and I want to thank Irini for that! I’m happy, and I want to thank Andreas! I want to come back again and attend the next course without using a single word in English or Italian. I’ll see you. Lots of kisses. Roger from Switzerland

I really enjoyed these two weeks session in Paros. The lessons in small group between three and six students were a great opportunity to make great progress allowing easy participation of each student. The session is a mix of grammar, vocabulary, speaking, reading and... singing, which makes the sessions comprehensive, dynamic and enjoyable. The cultural part included a very interesting and an on-going excavation in Despotikon and much more. Great thanks to all the Alexandria Institute team!
