Λογίδια: Ancient Greek Chitchats (any level)
Instructor:
Description:
This class will be a chance to chat, listen, and experience unsheltered speaking with conversation prompts and structures provided session by session to give directed and targeted practice while having free-form conversation. Every conversation will be expertly directed by the group leader, Andreas, to allow for maximum speaking time for each participant who wishes to speak as well as direction to ensure everyone is following along. The prompts can vary from books we are reading at the moment to our favorite things to current events (no fighting). The goal is to get together to converse in structured time to improve fluency and foster community hellenisti in only 30 minutes for those with busier schedules!
All materials will be provided by the instructor during classes. This course assumes prior knowledge of Greek roughly equivalent to two years of college Greek as well as previous Greek-speaking experience.
Sessions will take place via Zoom and are capped at 6 participants to ensure a personalized learning environment.
This course is repeatable, so participants who were in a previous Λογίδια course can take it again.
Schedule:
8 30-minute sessions over 8 weeks
Sundays, 9:00a - 9:30a EST*
22 September, 2024 - 10 November, 2024
