I'm Andrico, a developer of Greek Cypriot descent whose parents hail from the wonderful country of Κύπρος. Like many folks whose parents migrated from Greece or Cyprus, I regrettably never learned the Greek language growing up.
I've tried everything, apps, textbooks, YouTube channels and more. Some were great for vocabulary drills. Some were thorough on grammar but felt like reading a legal document. There was no single resource that provided training across the four skills (reading, writing, listening, and speaking) in a fun and engaging way.
That's why I built Speak Greek. It's structured enough to take you from zero to conversational while practical enough to focus on real language and not just grammar tables. I hope Speak Greek brings you the joy and success of learning an incredible language.
A few principles that shaped every decision.
Τέσσερις δεξιότητες
Reading, writing, listening, and speaking are developed together throughout, not split into separate tracks or saved for later levels.
Γραμματική με νόημα
Grammar is introduced when you need it to understand something, not front-loaded as a prerequisite. You'll use it before you've memorised it.
Πραγματική γλώσσα
Every unit is built around things you might actually want to say, not invented sentences.
Δομή CEFR
The course follows the CEFR framework, so your progress maps to a recognised standard and you always know where you stand.
Whether you've got roots in Greece or Cyprus, a trip planned, or you just fell in love with the language, this is for you.
