"It was perfect."

Ulrike Alba, student from Germany

I enjoyed the outdoor lessons the most. The small class size was very helpful for me. I found it great that we didn't learn much from books but more by talking. Kasia was a great teacher, always in a good mood and even got me to talk a lot without attracting attention :-)

"A perfect week at Andrioti School. A perfect week in Corfu - except for the rain :)"

Chris, student from Germany

I recommend the Andrioti School! I learned a lot and was able to improve my language skills.
The teachers gave us an informative and educational week with commitment and joy. And we had a lot of fun!
The class size was perfect, internationally mixed and also very suitable in terms of age.
I would like to come back to Corfu and visit the Andrioti School again. Big compliments to Kasja, our teacher!

"Absolute Kompetenz"

Sandra Winzeler, student from Switzerland

Ich hatte eine excelente, sympatische und tolle Lehrerin (Niki) mit Privatstunden. Sie unterrichtete individuell nach meinen Bedürfnissen und in meinem Tempo. Ich schätzte sehr, dass Sie nicht nur nach Lehrplan unterrichtete, sondern meine Fragen und Wünsche zu 100% berücksichtigte. Patrizia (Owner) war sehr aufmerksam, kompetent, sympatisch und berücksichtigte ebenfalls alle Wünsche meinerseits. Die Schule (sehr zentral gelegen, top Lage) ist gepflegt, sauber, gut dokumentiert mit Unterlagen. Auch Stundenanspassungen wurden berücksichtigt und der Kontakt zu den anderen Studenten fand auch statt. Sogar ein gemeinsamer Ausflug zur Übung in der Praxis wurde angeboten.

"1 to 1 teaching was perfectly fitting my needs thanks to an excellent multilingual philologist of the Greek language"

Christine Gieraths, student from Germany

Classes from 9-11 were a suitable start in the day, and fitted my learning capacity in this one-to-one student-teacher setting. The local facilities were clean and well kept. The school seems to provide mostly classes for those who speak Greek quite well and now seek the A1 and/or A2 level exams also in reading/ writing, for working permission purposes. The location was 10 minutes by foot from my (privately organized) lodging in Garitsa, another 2 min from the seaside and 10 to Corfu center for relaxing after class. As for activities after class, I am not aware if there were any. As I had some (rather) basic knowledge of Greek, the one-to-one student-teacher option fitted very well . Thank you to the school for an intensive week.
To become more fluent, I would have loved to be teamed up with a Greek-person wishing to learn English or German, after class or the following week. ….

"An easy-going friendly atmosphere with very helpful teachers that helped me improve my level"

Simón de Santiago

I had initially signed for an intermediate group class, but, unfortunately, when I got to Corfu, I was informed that the other members of the group had cancelled last minute, which didn't feel like a good start. However, the teacher, Vassilki, really did all her best to compensate for that and I received private lessons during the whole week which really helped me advance more quickly than I probably would have in the group. She really understood my needs and provided a lot of information which will help me in the future. I maybe missed having more of a chance to speak with people at my level. The last part every morning was dedicated to Greek culture lectures, but since the rest of the students were from the starting level, they had to be done in English, while I would have liked to have a bit more of Greek there too. Still, they were very enjoyable, the same as the full day cultural trip we did in Corfu town, including a lovely lunch by the sea. In all, I have to say that it was a lovely experience, even if it was not exactly what I had signed for. I would certainly recommend Andrioti school for Greek courses in a beautiful environment such as Corfu.

"Andrioti School is a very good school with very, very friendly and professionally distinguished teachers"

Franz Larcher, student from Austria

The classes are well equipped and the excellent and friendly teachers make the lessons very understandable and so interesting that a course is definitely worth ist.
The location and the equipment fit well.
The City tour was also a highlight in the "School week".
My hotel was not far from the school an so within a short time on foot easily accessible.

"The teachers have been at our full disposal. Really great."

Alberto Bradanini

Teachers fine. Maybe more small dialogue, because the level of the 'students' was different, but then the adjustment was quickly done. Location fine, facilities adeguate, activities very interesting, housing I took care by myself.

As I said, I would have liked to have the possibility to use the Greek language with the others and the teachers in small dialogues.

"Challenging but totally rewarding"

Chantal Maltais Oei

I had a great experience . The teacher was very qualified
She had the ability to speak mostly Greek but integrating just enough English
to make sure that everyone in the class was following.
It was challenging but rewarding. I realized my understanding is much better.
The school is very professional and personal at the same time.
The day out was also fabulous. I live in Corfu for a couple of years but yet rediscovered the magic of the Old Town .
That was a gift
Thank you
I would come again for more intensive

"From the very beginning I felt at home at Andrioti School."

Adelheid Zingel, student from Germany

My young teacher was a very nice and competent person who explained the complicated Greek grammar in a way which is easily understood. The lessons were interesting and varied. As there were no other students at that time I took classes because of the season, there were no social activities which I missed but which is understandable. I am very pleased to have improved my language skills in one week.

"Friendly and supportive"

Sarah Barlow

The few days I spent at Andrioti School were lovely. The location of the school is at the center so walking to and from the town was convenient, and the classrooms were very clean and well equipped. The staff I met couldn't have been nicer.
We had morning sessions with a small group which worked well, although the group's abilities seemed quite mixed.

We covered quite a lot of grammar and I would like to continue my studies by leaning to use more varied vocabulary, perhaps through sentence construction and repeating exercises, to make my overall conversation skills better.

All in all, it was a really happy place to study.

"Excellent private lessons with Vasiliki. Enjoyable, but less useful one week cultural course"

Tony Montgomery-Smith

I spent two weeks there, the first week being private lessons with Vasiliki, and on the second week was a cultural class given by Vasiliki.
The private lessons went very well. Our objective was to understand more of the conjugation of Greek verbs, and this was achieved. It helped a lot that Vasiliki was willing to read and correct the small compositions I made to exercise my new knowledge.
The second week was very enjoyable, but less useful for learning Greek. This was partly because the class members had such different prior experience since the course was intended to be as much cultural as language learning, and because there was insufficient class participation. I suggested to Vasiliki that she should increase the participation, and she tried to do so.
I think that finding ways of getting more class participation is the key to turning your good teaching into excellent. Even having class members simply read a text is better than letting them sit as passive recipients.

"Excellent!"

Korol Irina

Teachers were all very friendly, loving and caring. My daughter liked all of them. At the age of seven she managed to make friends with other children at school. Now she really enjoys writing letters to them and even sends presents to them.
The atmosphere was really friendly there!
The location was perfect as the school is situated within walking distance from the historical center of the town and you can get there easily by bus from any part of the island.
The classrooms were modern and air-conditioned. There is a library and you can borrow any book you like there.
We attended Open Days in June, 2015 and we took part in different activities. They offered different variations and levels of the language.
I have never seen such teachers! The teachers who love children so much!

"IELTS Preparation"

Milka Deifili Geracari

They had a very professional and organized approach. The teachers were very good and the structure of the teaching was very rewarding. It helped me improve my English standard and prepared me for the high standard academic English I was going to follow during the first year of my studies in England. The location was very near my home. The staff was polite and helpful.

Abdalla Saab Neto Michel, student from
Monique Dias, International House Johannesburg - Language Lab school representative

Yes we have worked and have already some students with a grant. The problem is that we currently have the Maltese Embassy in Tripoli closed. They are not opening their doors for applications at the moment due to the “unrest”. I am in continuous contact with the embassy about this – so they should be opening again soon. We can process this booking and try apply for a visa…. However, I cannot promise anything

"Can you send me more information about this course? Are there activities included?"

Sandi Joelson, student from Australia
Hugo Rosales, Altitude Camps school representative

An oral course is an individual course based on oral production of speech and not in grammar. The activities that a student can have at that period are:
- a meal with the teacher in a tavern or a restaurant in the town or in the neighboring suburbs
- screening of a Greek film in the school premises
- one hour presentation of Greek painting

"Do you have different course levels? Do you have courses for the Intermediate 1 Level? Do you have a program/daily schedule of the course? Do you use any language other than Greek in your classes (English as a vehicle for your explanations , for example)? What is the age-range of your students? Where are the apartments exactly located? Do they have air conditioner?"

Dyan Test, student from USA
Raphaël Ruchet, International House: Geneva school representative

Our experienced teachers can design courses at any level. It would of course help if students studying together have approx. the same experience in studying the language. We have courses for the Intermediate 1 Level. Most courses take place in the morning (9-11am) so that the rest of the day is spent exploring our beautiful island. However, we would be happy to discuss another time of the day if that is not convenient.

All our Greek teachers are fluent in English to help our overseas students. Our students at Andrioti School are as young as 3 and as old as 70! Usually, Greek is studied by people in their thirties and forties. The apartments are located at the province of Perama. They overlook Corfu's laggoon and are about 7km from the city centre. There is bus service but perhaps they would be better off renting a car, so that they can explore the island which is quite big.
