 You can use this website to help you learn Greek for your trip. It can be used as a reference
guide for those of you who are already taking Greek classes, or as a simplified course for those who want to start
with the basics. Steve Aronis has put a lot of work
into his site and everytime I look it gets better and better.
Steve created this site for everyone that wants to learn the modern Greek
language on the internet. He has included complete simplified grammar and
tests. I Learn Greek.com also has a Vocabulary directory that contains more than
3000 words and phrases complete with phonetics translation and some of them
sound!
The Modern Greek
Language Series by Matina Psyhogeos
has grown out of the
need for a comprehensive Beginning through
Intermediate-Advanced course for the student of
the Greek language. The strict criterion is that
techniques and principles of this curriculum are
presented simply and methodically. The Psyhogeos
Program has been tested and applied extensively in
high schools and colleges and was presented, by
its developer - the highly regarded educator - in
many conferences, seminars and workshops in the US
and other English-speaking countries with
excellent results. It offers a variety of books
for the study of the Greek language by the student
at home or under the supervision of an instructor
when the student is very young.
(However I
started on this program when I was 48 and I think
it is
great-Matt)

The
Read and Speak Greek
CD-Rom
program by Dr. George Balanis and his
wife Toula is a fun way to learn. I
bought it for my 6-year old daughter
and I use it as well. I have
recommended this to many people.
It's like taking years of Greek
classes. Easy to use. If you know some Greek but want to fill in the gaps this is a great way to jumpstart your language skills and if you are just a beginner this is a great way to begin.
Click on pictures, words and phrases and the program speaks to you in Greek. Lots of vocabulary and grammar lessons too.
