Introductions

I liked the way it was presented as “run on sentences “ because that is the speed at which Greek is spoken and I need that practice but, the words in the conversation are not as modern as I have heard when I listen to my Greek friends greet each other. Also, it was hard to hear the pronunciation of the words I was unfamiliar with and I found myself wanting to see them written because I know how to pronounce the letters of the Greek alphabet. Just a quick glance at how an unfamiliar word is spelled and would be able to say it correctly. Sometimes iphone speakers aren’t as distinctive as an “in person” conversation when correct pronunciation is vital.
All-in-all this learning experience is proving to be a likable one even though I’m only on the second lesson but, will I be able to print the lessons out in the end?
Thank you, Gail Kosturos

Reasonably easy to follow

Learning a language is hard. These speakers were easy to understand and the enunciation was good

Very instructive but the conversation framing urgently needs modernising!

It was a great way to learn some basic Greek while travelling the country. The extensive pronounciation training often lead to us being confused for Greeks when greeting someone. The repetitional method is very effective and provides you with a solid if not very large vocabulary in the end.
A big minus however is the conversation setting: a US American man (represented by the learner) calling over to an unmarried Greek woman to ask her for directions and then ask if she would like to eat/drink something. Seriously?! It was furthermore assumed that the listener is from the US, which is unnecessary.
