We are extremely happy to announce the Greek Language Immersion Course for adults will be back in summer 2022. It makes us even happier and immensely proud to finally announce that the Greek Immersion Course will take place in one of the most important and historic Greek buildings in Greece.
The place
Our Greek Immersion Course will take place in the Anargyrios and Korgialenios School of Spetses. Spetses is an island that you might know as the home of the Greek heroine Laskarina Bouboulina and other important heroes of the Greek revolution.
In summer 2021 our team got to stay at the School of Spetses to test everything out and make sure that we are able to design the best Greek Language Immersion program possible. This is why we know from experience that the people who will take part in this program will immensely enjoy staying at the recently renovated dorm rooms and spending only 1 minute to arrive at Greek class or find themselves in the crystal clear waters of Spetses.
The School of Spetses is now a cultural and educational center that used to funcion until the 80s as one of the most important boarding schools in Europe. This summer, our Greek language program for adults will be hosted in the historic classrooms of the School of Spetses that have welcomed amazing scientists and teachers in the past. You can find out more about the School of Spetses here.
The program
The Greek Immersion Course will be a 9-day intensive program that will help adult students immerse in the Greek lifestyle and also feel confident to speak and understand Greek even if they come as absolute beginners. Students will be divided into groups based on their levels and the Greek Immersion program will include 3 hours of daily Greek language classes.
And once your daily class is over, you will have the chance to experience Greek culture like never before. Our Greek Immersion program will include field trips and island tours of cultural interest, like the Bouboulina museum. It will also include evening activities that mean to give students the opportunity to practice with the Greek they have been learning in real-life situations. Drinks, food, and Greek nights are also a must.
The experience
Let’s not forget that this is a Greek island in the summer. This means that the people who will participate will have a lot of free time too to enjoy the breathtaking beaches of Spetses, walk around its cosmopolitan little streets and relax in an environment that they will never forget.
We have already started enrollments for the Greek Language Immersion Course in Spetses with an early bird fee. You can find out more about the early bird fee and enrollment deadlines here.
