Welcome to the new academic year 2023-2024 of Ascension's Greek School program for Adults and Adolescents. Adult / Adolescent Greek School for 2023-2024 will begin on Thursday, September 21, 2023 with a hybrid offering of in-person classes and Zoom. Open House for the first semester will take place at 6:30 p.m. on Thursday, September 14th.  

The classes meet on Thursdays and are offered in two semesters (15 weeks each semester): 

--  1st Semester (9/21/23 - 1/18/24)
--  2nd Semester (2/1/24 - 5/23/24)

There are two levels: (1) Beginners / Advanced Beginners (Thursday, 6:15-7:30 PM); and 
(2) Intermediate / Advanced (Thursday, 7:45-9:00 PM)

·      This is a program for those who want to learn or improve their Greek.

·      This program is hybrid. All classes are taught simultaneously in-person and via Zoom for remote learners. All students can make progress in Greek in a positive and enjoyable environment and a high level of interaction is sustained for both in-person and remote participants.  

·      The focus is on conversational modern Greek and all students are involved in conversation in a variety of social situations in a friendly atmosphere using pictures, role play, hands on activities and games.

·      The classes are structured according to thematic units and incorporate reference to Greek-orthodox traditions, Greek lifestyle, geography of Greece, Greek news and Greek songs.

 ·      The teaching material is provided in digital form at no additional cost.  Additional online material will be provided for those who wish to have extra practice at home.
