Memoria Academy Greek

[MollyP]

Does anyone have experience with your student learning Greek via Memoria Academy? Good experience? Was it worth the extra cost to have an online teacher?

We have not taken the online Greek, but I just want to say that my son has Mr. Wolfe for literature this year and will have him again next year for a couple of classes. He likes him a lot. He's very organized and runs a tight ship (retired military). He sets clear expectations. We find him to be a very good teacher.

We don’t have experience with Memoria Academy Greek, but have liked most of the teachers at MA and have found an online instructor for Greek to be particularly helpful. Putting the two together I would say that if it works with your schedule that MA for Greek would be worth the cost if you are serious about studying the language. It is a difficult language and I think it would have easy to drop without having made a solid commitment to make it through the first year.

I don't have experience with MA for Greek but I do recommend teachers for languages, especially beyond the introductory level and even more so if you are already doing Latin as well.
As I write this, I'm in Greece sitting at breakfast looking at a milk carton on the table. Even though I can sound out all the words, it is just harder than looking at Latin which has so many familiarities with English. As a new learner you never have the experience of looking up and thinking, "Oh, I recognize that word!" Haha. So yes, I recommend teachers who can pass along their love and understanding of the language. HTH!
