About Fotini

I’m Fotini, a native Greek speaker with a lifelong relationship with language, literature and the humanities.

I studied Byzantine and Modern Greek Language and Literature at the University of Cyprus, with studies extending across Ancient, Byzantine and Modern Greek, Latin, literature, history, philosophy and drama.

Over the years, my professional life has taken me through education, journalism and editing in Cyprus and Australia. I’ve taught children and adults, worked with language in very different settings, and spent decades doing what I still enjoy most: learning, questioning, explaining and communicating ideas.

I’m now also studying Law, which feels less like a change of direction and more like another side of the same curiosity — language, interpretation, reasoning and understanding why things mean what they mean.

That curiosity is also why I teach. I love the moment when something that seemed confusing suddenly makes sense to a student. For me, teaching isn’t about producing the “right answer”. It’s about helping someone reach the point where they understand how they got there.

About the lesson

I don’t teach from a fixed script, because no two students learn in exactly the same way.

We start with what you already know, where you’re getting stuck and what you actually want from your Greek. From there, I shape the lessons around you.

You may be starting Greek from the beginning, reconnecting with your Greek heritage, wanting to speak more confidently with family, or needing support with school or university. You may already speak Greek but want to strengthen your grammar, vocabulary, reading or writing. The lesson changes according to the person in front of me.

I don’t want you simply memorising answers or rules. I want you to understand what you’re learning so that you can actually use it. When something isn’t clicking, I explain it differently, make the connections clearer and keep going until it does.

Lessons are available for children, teenagers and adults, from beginners through to advanced students.

Fotini has been tutoring my two children (aged 7 and 11) in Modern Greek through weekly online lessons since we live in a regional area. She is extremely friendly, professional, and genuinely cares about her students, always making sure they understand and enjoy every session. My children absolutely love her and always look forward to their lessons with her. She is very experienced, well-educated, and exceptionally qualified. We are so happy to have her as our tutor, and any student would be truly lucky to have her as a tutor—the absolute best choice!

I cannot recommend Fotini enough! She has been tutoring me in ancient Greek and Latin during my university classics degree, and she is simply wonderful. Not only does she have a deep, genuine passion for classical languages, but she is also endlessly patient. Whenever I'm struggling or feeling overwhelmed by tough grammar rules and tricky translations, she always knows how to break things down so everything finally clicks. If you are looking for someone who is brilliant, supportive, and truly cares about your success, Fotini is an absolute gem!

Fotini is the Modern Greek and Latin tutor for my son, who is currently preparing for his Year 12 exams, and my daughter, who is in Year 10.

She is an exceptional tutor and my kids genuinely love her lessons, which are always engaging and anything but boring. Fotini is very experienced, patient, and ensures that my children thoroughly understand everything they cover.

I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a dedicated and inspiring tutor.

We couldn't have asked for a better tutor than Fotini, who supported my son in Modern Greek for three years up to Year 12. Her approach to teaching is unique, engaging, and entirely stress-free; learning happens smoothly and naturally without ever feeling forced or boring. Her compassionate, patient nature brought out the absolute best in him, and he achieved incredible results. We appreciate her dedication so much!
