“In 2024 I have undertaken two terms of Modern Greek with Roy Gerente. She is an excellent and patient teacher and is very inspiring, kind and thoughtful. She makes a complex language a very enjoyable experience.” Dianne
“I very much enjoy the Greek lessons taught by our teacher, Roy. The classes are warm and friendly and always fun. Each level is well catered for in the work materials presented. Roy often has 2 to 3 levels in a class but managers to coordinate each level well with appropriate exercises. I look forward to continuing my lessons.” Margaret
