Course Description
Beginning Modern Greek I is designed as a thorough introduction to spoken and written Modern Greek. The goal is to establish a firm foundation in the language's grammar, syntax, and core vocabulary, develop conversational and composition skills, and explore the cultural context in which the Greek language has developed and is currently evolving. This course is taught through a combination of lectures, audio-visual presentations, and in-class projects.
