Hello – Yia sas/γειά σας. My name is Litsa (Aglaia) Pitsillidou. I was born and raised on the island of Cyprus. I have been living in the United States for many years and have been traveling back and forth to Cyprus and Greece. I speak fluent Greek and English with Greek being my native language.
I love teaching and helping others learn the Greek language. Learning about different cultures is one of my passions and this is why I enjoy traveling. Language is the epicenter of a culture. Knowing the language one can understand and actively participate in a culture. It’s a pleasant undertaking to lead someone through this fascinating, intriguing and fun cultural journey. I firmly believe that when we understand each other’s culture and background we can gap our differences and resolve conflicts.
Furthermore, I can help people learn the language whose goal it is to use it while traveling; I can easily tailor the lessons around their trips.
Having years of experience in the corporate world, I am eager to introduce people to the Greek language for business purposes and teach them how to use it effectively in a job setting.
I am passionate about teaching and sharing my knowledge with others. I love cooking and experimenting with food. I gave Greek cooking classes for many years. During that time, apart from cooking I was sharing a lot about the Greek language, and the Greek culture.

Meet your instructor
I am Litsa. I was born and raised on the island of Cyprus which is located in the Eastern Mediterranean Sea. I have been living in the United States for many years and have been traveling back and forth to Cyprus and Greece. I speak fluent Greek and English with Greek being my native language.
I love teaching others both languages – Greek and English however I am here to teach you Greek! On a personal level teaching the languages is a way of bringing my two worlds together – Cyprus and the United States.
I always make my lessons fun because I find teaching languages enjoyable. I make my students feel comfortable and relaxed by asking them a lot of questions as to what their language goals are and in what time frame, they want to achieve them. With the information they give me I create a realistic program to help them reach their goals without pressure and stress. I base my teaching method on my student’s learning style whether it’s kinesthetic, visual, verbal, and auditory or any combination. I always adjust my teaching to suit my student’s style.
In all of my lessons, I incorporate information about the Greek culture so there is a better and deeper understanding and connection with the language.

Language is the Epicenter of a Culture
I am a native speaker of the Greek language so when I teach it there is no accent and it sounds natural. I studied the classics and have an in-depth knowledge of the Greek language which I never cease to use on a daily basis. Proven success in teaching Greek cooking to students of all ability levels, with outstanding facility in communicating across cultures. I have lived, worked and learned from people with different cultural backgrounds for decades and that equipped me with an astute cultural awareness.
I worked online and remotely for 17 years so I know how to navigate through the virtual world. Learning online can save you time and be more efficient.
Having gone through the experience myself of coming to a country where I had to learn the language well, I am able to identify with newcomers to a Greek-speaking country and I can help them develop their language skills as well as adjust and learn their new environment.
