The Odysseas online language tutor, developed by the Centre for Hellenic Studies at Simon Fraser University, is an interactive learning program designed to teach the Greek language and culture on the Internet using electronic learning principles and advanced user interface technology.
The tutor is designed to emulate how an actual personal tutor would instruct a student. It provides several examples and no-risk quizzes so that students are familiar with the exam format ahead of time. After each exam the student receives customized feedback based on his/her performance. Odysseas also tracks the progress of students through several exams to ensure that they are making steady progress. The tutor has now taught Greek to thousands of students throughout North America and China, and has been recognized as a pioneer of online language instruction.
Almost a 100,000 users around the globe have registered, downloaded or installed the Odysseas’ Greek Language Tutor Platform / Mobile application.
The support of the Stavros Niarchos Foundation ensures Odysseas’s continued development.
