Ancient Greek for Beginners

This course is suitable for people with some interest but little knowledge, as the tutor will be covering the basics. This is not a qualification course.

This course offers an opportunity to learn about some of the key grammatical principles on which the language is based. You’ll learn how to read and write the alphabet, translate simple sentences and identify connections between Greek and English words.

Resources will be shared on Google classroom before and after the talk, so it is important that you have access to this Virtual Learning Platform to stay up to date. There will be no exams or qualifications, and the course will focus mainly on listening comprehension. At the end you will complete a simple task or a quiz to check your understanding and overall comprehension of the presentation. Additionally, we are going to ask you to complete a course evaluation survey to share your learning experience. This survey will be shared via Google classroom at the end of the course.

No specific entry requirements.

This course leads to further Ancient Greek Language and Literature courses in the next academic year. Your tutor will be able to give you more information before the end of the course.
