02 · Study a model

A developed answer

Συνήθως περνάω τον ελεύθερο χρόνο μου με τους φίλους μου, επειδή γελάμε πολύ. Το περασμένο Σαββατοκύριακο πήγαμε στον κινηματογράφο και είδαμε μια ενδιαφέρουσα ταινία. Στο μέλλον, θα ήθελα να δοκιμάσω ένα νέο άθλημα, γιατί θέλω να είμαι πιο δραστήριος.

Usually I spend my free time with my friends because we laugh a lot. Last weekend we went to the cinema and saw an interesting film. In the future, I would like to try a new sport because I want to be more active.

Notice: the answer uses reasons, two time frames and a specific detail.

03 · Your turn

Build your own answer

  1. Give an opinion about a free-time activity.
  2. Add a reason using επειδή or γιατί.
  3. Say what you did last weekend.
  4. Add something you would like to do in the future.
Μου αρέσει… επειδή…Το περασμένο Σαββατοκύριακο…Στο μέλλον, θα ήθελα να…

04 · Check and speak

Make it exam-ready

  • Have I answered the question directly?
  • Have I added a reason and a detail?
  • Have I used more than one time frame?
  • Have I checked verbs, accents and agreements?

30-second challenge: say your answer aloud without reading it word for word.

About me

Meet Stephanie Gregory

I am an experienced teacher with over twenty years' experience. I am currently KS3 Lead for English and have taught GCSE Greek for ten years. Throughout my career, I have been passionate about helping students develop confidence, overcome barriers and achieve their full potential.

I created GCSE Greek Success Hub to make high-quality Greek language learning clear, accessible and manageable for every student. I understand that preparing for the GCSE Greek examinations can feel overwhelming, particularly when suitable resources and straightforward explanations are difficult to find.

My resources combine step-by-step guidance, carefully scaffolded activities, key vocabulary, English translations and practical examination strategies. They support students of different abilities, whether they speak Greek at home, study it at school or are learning independently.

My aim is simple: to help every student feel prepared, supported and capable of succeeding in GCSE Greek.

Stephanie Gregory

Λίγα λόγια για μένα

Είμαι εκπαιδευτικός με περισσότερα από είκοσι χρόνια εμπειρίας. Σήμερα είμαι υπεύθυνη για το KS3 στο τμήμα Αγγλικών και διδάσκω Ελληνικά για τις εξετάσεις GCSE εδώ και δέκα χρόνια. Σε όλη την επαγγελματική μου πορεία, στόχος μου είναι να βοηθώ τους μαθητές να αποκτούν αυτοπεποίθηση, να ξεπερνούν τις δυσκολίες και να αξιοποιούν πλήρως τις δυνατότητές τους.

Δημιούργησα το GCSE Greek Success Hub για να κάνω την εκμάθηση της ελληνικής γλώσσας πιο ξεκάθαρη και προσιτή σε κάθε μαθητή. Γνωρίζω ότι η προετοιμασία για τις εξετάσεις μπορεί να φαίνεται δύσκολη, ιδίως όταν είναι δύσκολο να βρει κανείς κατάλληλο υλικό και απλές εξηγήσεις.

Το υλικό μου προσφέρει καθοδήγηση βήμα προς βήμα, δραστηριότητες με την κατάλληλη υποστήριξη, βασικό λεξιλόγιο, αγγλικές μεταφράσεις και πρακτικές στρατηγικές για τις εξετάσεις. Έχει σχεδιαστεί για μαθητές με διαφορετικές ανάγκες, είτε μιλούν ελληνικά στο σπίτι, είτε τα μαθαίνουν στο σχολείο, είτε μελετούν ανεξάρτητα.

Θέλω κάθε μαθητής να νιώθει προετοιμασμένος, να έχει τη στήριξη που χρειάζεται και να πιστεύει ότι μπορεί να πετύχει στις εξετάσεις GCSE Ελληνικών.

Έτοιμοι για το επόμενο βήμα;

Start small. Practise often.
