The Greek Language Department (TEG) of Beirut
The Greek Language Department (TEG) of Beirut operates under the auspices of the Greek Community of Beirut, offering courses to adults and children starting from the age of eight. Registrations are accepted from the beginning of July each year until the end of September, upon availability.
The academic year starts yearly in the first week of October and ends on May 31st. Our program offers 2 lessons per week for each class. We are currently offering 4 levels: A1, A2, B1, B2. Three additional levels are offered for kids A1a Kids, A1b Kids and Teens.
Level 1 (A1) is split in 2 years. At the end of the 2nd year, the students who have completed the curriculum of the A1 can present the official exams for the Certification of Attainment in Greek.
The exams are sent sealed from the Greek Ministry of Education and if the student succeeds he/she can obtain the Certification of Attainment in Greek, Level A1.
Official exams are held only by the certified examination centers in Greece and abroad, which is the case of our Greek Language Department since 2017, becoming fully entitled to conduct the official exams for the Certification of Attainment in Greek. The students who pass the exams receive their official certificates from Greece in October.
Approximately 110 hours are taught per level each year.
Around 155 students enroll every year to learn the Greek language.
For more information, please contact us Monday to Friday from 10:00 am till 18:00 pm.
In addition to an online session (A1a Online): Monday – Wednesday 6:00 to 7:30 pm
