Meet our School Director.

Born into a multicultural family background with an academic base, from an early age learning English, Spanish, Italian and Greek was her everyday diet. An inherent desire to speak and switch from one language to another formed the foundation upon which her career was developed.

Understudying her father as director of his own Language School in Greece a desire to travel to explore and acquire language skills followed.

Already qualified in Ancient Greek and Latin, these qualifications were enhanced at the University of Lecce in Italy culminating in 3 degrees in Spanish, Italian and English Language and Literature (with specialization in Linguistics). The degree was achieved with Summa Cum Laude (final grade 109/110).

Following graduation she spent a year at the University of Granada in Spain which provided a further opportunity to develop a knowledge of Latin American History and Literature together with a knowledge of translation and interpretation from English to Spanish and an approach to Arabic Spanish common History and Culture (The Legacy of Al-Andalus). Additionally , she became increasingly interested in the Arabic, Russian, and Chinese language.

The specialisation in 3 Romance Languages (Spanish, Italian, Portuguese) led to the establishment of her own Romance Language School upon returning to Greece.

2011 was a key year of expansion by introducing Eastern Languages and Greek taught by native qualified teachers.

The process of interacting and teaching in a multilingual academic and social environment has been a key motivator in her career to date. Since 2006 the School pioneers courses in quality online and blended learning language teaching and going forward is seeking to develop and produce courses to meet the demand of those discerning students requiring a premier level of educational service at reasonable fee levels.
