Filomathia on air
After a small delay we finally managed to post the sound record of the interview given by Eva Dimitsanti just a few days before the EXPOLingua Berlin 2019! On Gavdos fm with Lefteris Kourkoulos... A lively morning talk about the Greek language and its promotion abroad!


 
The fact that a local educational institution from Chania takes part in an international language exhibition has attracted the attention of the local (and not only) mass media. As a result, there have been plenty of references and reports on the participation of FILOMATHIA in this language tourism exhibition in Berlin, EXPOLingua. Channels and newspapers like Apokoronas Life made extensive reports on the event. More specifically:

Filomathia at Ert Chanion radio channel

The busiest day of the Brussels Holiday Fair was today, Sunday 10th February! So many people came by that 3 people working for Filomathia were not enough sometimes!

On the whole, everything went really well! We achieved the goals we had set at the beginning of the Expo and made very interesting connections with other business people who view tourism not like the average man does. The real outcome of our effort will be estimated in a month after the Expo, when all "after Expo" contacts are made, but we know for sure that we did really well!

The heart of Europe knows education can be nicely combined with vacations, that Greek is easier than thought to be and that Filomathia and the whole region of Apokoronas, Chania, Crete, is here for all those who love Greece! Thank you for staying informed!
A really busy day
Everybody being busy

Too much work today as it was Saturday and an enormous number of visitors came by the Expo. That's why we have only a few pictures today. All of us were working full time at full speed!!

A special day also for us and the whole Greek speaking world: The International Day of the Greek Language! A lot of visitors were interested in this new institution and many of them expressed their admiration and gratitude towards the contribution of the Greek Civilization to all humanity... We even heard a Greek song sang by a Belgian visitor, while a Dutch one burst into tears explaining why "his heart is left in Greece", as he said.

Quite a touching day for us, full of encouragement by many Expo visitors as to what we do and how we decided to promote our country... We have been amazed by how much affection we received today... We have friends out there, after all...

International Day of Greek Language

Παγκόσμια Ημέρα Ελληνικής Γλώσσας, 9 Φεβρουαρίου


Την ίδια μέρα με την εορτασμό της μνήμης του Διονυσίου Σολωμού, τον εθνικό ποιητή του «Ύμνου εις την Ελευθερίαν», αποφασίστηκε η θέσπιση της Παγκόσμιας Ημέρας της Ελληνικής Γλώσσας (ΦΕΚ Β΄ 1384/24/04/2017). Η πρωτοβουλία ξεκίνησε από Ελληνικές Κοινότητες της Ιταλίας με στόχο, όχι μόνο την ανάδειξη της ελληνικής γλώσσας και της σημασίας της σε παγκόσμιο επίπεδο, αλλά και την αναζωπύρωση του ενδιαφέροντος για μια από τις αρχαιότερες και πολυσήμαντες γλώσσες του κόσμου. Τη γλώσσα πάνω στην οποία θεμελιώθηκε όλος ο δυτικός κόσμος.

Σήμερα όλο και περισσότεροι άνθρωποι στην υφήλιο μαθαίνουν την ελληνική γλώσσα, η οποία κρίνεται απαραίτητο προσόν σε πολλούς επιστημονικούς και επιχειρηματικούς τομείς. Το διαδίκτυο έχει παίξει σημαντικό ρόλο στην έξαψη του ενδιαφέροντος για την εκμάθηση αυτής της γλώσσας, καθώς έχουν δημιουργηθεί πολλές πηγές πληροφόρησης για τη σημασία των ελληνικών και πλέον η δυνατότητα διαδικτυακών μαθημάτων, δίνει ευκολότερη πρόσβαση σε μαθητές από όλον τον κόσμο.

«Τη γλώσσα μου έδωσαν ελληνική
το σπίτι φτωχικό στις αμμουδιές του Ομήρου.
Μονάχη έγνοια η γλώσσα μου στις αμμουδιές του Ομήρου...»

Απόσπασμα από «Το Άξιον Εστί», του Οδυσσέα Ελύτη

International Day of Greek Language, 9 February


On the same day celebrating the memory of Dionysios Solomos, the national poet who composed the “Hymn to Liberty”, the International Day of Greek Language has been officially established (ΦΕΚ Β΄ 1384/24/04/2017). The initiative was originally taken by the Greek Communities of Italy with the aim not only to promote the importance of the Greek language at a worldwide scale, but also to reignite the public interest in one of the most ancient and meaningful languages of the world. The language on which, the whole western world was founded.

Today more and more people around the globe learn the Greek language, as it is considered necessary qualification in many scientific and business fields. The Internet has played an essential role in sparkling the interest in learning this language, since many sources of information on the importance of Greek have been created, while the opportunity of on-line lessons gives students all around the world easier access to learning Greek.

“The language I was given was Hellenic
The home was poor on the sandy shores of Homer
My sole concern is my language on the sandy shores of Homer…”

Excerpt from “To Axion Esti”, by Odysseus Elytis

Journée mondiale de la langue grecque, le 9 février


Le même jour, célébrant la mémoire de Dionysios Solomos, le poète national qui a composé “l'Hymne à la liberté”, la Journée mondiale de la langue grecque a été officiellement établie (24 1384/24/04/2017). L’initiative a été prise à l’origine par les communautés d’Italie dans le but non seulement de promouvoir l’importance de la langue grecque à l’échelle mondiale, mais également de faire renaître l’intérêt du public dans l’une des langues les plus anciennes et les plus significatives du monde. La langue sur laquelle tout le monde occidental a été fondé.

Aujourd'hui, de plus en plus de personnes dans le monde apprennent la langue grecque, considérée comme une qualification nécessaire dans de nombreux domaines scientifiques et commerciaux. Internet a joué un rôle essentiel en suscitant l’intérêt pour l’apprentissage de cette langue, car de nombreuses sources d’information sur l’importance du grec ont été créées, tandis que la possibilité de suivre des cours en ligne offre aux étudiants du monde entier un accès plus facile à l’apprentissage du grec.

“Comme langue on m’a donné de parler grec.
Comme maison un pauvre abri sur les syrtes d’Homère.
Mon unique souci cette langue bâtie sur les syrtes d’Homère…”

Extrait de “Axion Esti”, Odysseus Elytis

There were also visitors who already spoke Greek well enough and have travelled to Greece many times, thus, their interest in our work and the location of our school in Crete was profound! We could say that today A LOT of Greek was heard in the Salon des Vacances Expo!! Until tomorrow!

Filomathia Greek Language Courses in Greece
Filomathia Greek Language Centre is a well-established institution (2007) whose aim is to make learning Greek an unforgettable experience. Teaching the Greek Language has been of ultimate importance to us respectively to its History and position among the oldest and richest languages of the world emphasizing on its modern aspect and daily use.

Greek School on Chania Crete
Our vision is to contribute to spreading this language worldwide and make Greek learners realize the inner connections of language and thinking. Thus, our courses are designed in a way that students always feel confident using Greek in both speaking and writing as well as being enthusiastic about discovering new aspects of the language they have chosen to learn.

It all begins from experienced and qualified teachers, native speakers with great passion for their work, who stand by students as friends and tutors sharing knowledge and encouraging self-confidence. Then it is material used in class, from classical tuition to innovative methods, fun games and, most importantly, conversation.

Filomathia Greek Language Courses in Greece
A class is never the same with another, because we know that every student is special and we always adapt to the needs of our learners. That’s why we keep students in small groups (maximum 7) and this gives us the opportunity to treat everyone in class as individuals with different personalities and cover any particular question or matter that might rise during a course.

All this, of course, is supported by the magnificent surroundings of Crete. With excellent view to the White Mountains, our school offers great environment to concentrate, study and also relax!

Learning Greek can be easy and fun from the very first lesson!
