Where better to learn Greek than in the birthplace of the Western world, the city that gave us democracy, philosophy, theatre, and the artistic ideals that shaped Europe for millennia? Greek courses in Athens offer you a unique chance to learn a new language in a setting that at every step will take your breath away. Go for a walk in the Agora, and realise that you're stepping just where Socrates and Plato talked. Visit the endless variety of ruins, the theatres where Aeschylus, Sophocles and Euripides had their plays performed, the temples that house statues and architecture that have been at the base of the artistic ideal ever since they were built. Take in the Acropolis and the Parthenon, which even in ruins is still the most perfect building ever built. But Athens isn't just history – it's also a vibrant and modern city, the birthplace of the modern Olympics, with a strong sports scene and endless culture opportunities. With 148 theatrical stages, Athens has more performing spaces than any city in the world, so there's always something to see, whether it's pop music or classical, theatre or dance. With a national park nearby and the National Garden a green refuge in the center of the city, outdoor cinemas and a wide variety of museums, there's always something to do, and people to meet with whom you can test what you've just learnt in class. Going to a Greek school in Athens will provide you with an unforgettable experience, and allow you for the test of your life to say you were educated just where Aristotle was.
