Modern Greek language students off to a dynamic start in preparation for VCE exams

·

In response to the students’ need for a dynamic start in their preparation for the VCE exams, the Greek Community’s Language and Cultural Schools are organising a two-day intensive program at the Greek Centre.

This program is designed to enhance the knowledge and skills of VCE students in Modern Greek studies.

This educational initiative aims to provide students with a valuable opportunity to enhance their proficiency in the Greek language, familiarise themselves smoothly with the VCE syllabus and requirements, understand the structure of the examinations, and practice all the necessary skills.

The Principal of the GCM Schools, Mrs. Maria Bakalidou, stated, ‘We were impressed by the outcomes of last year’s workshop, witnessing a notable improvement in the preparedness of students who attended for their VCE courses.

“Beyond offering theoretical insights into the syllabus and exam structure, the program provides students with the chance to practically sharpen all four required skills for the exam.

“This intensive workshop emphasizes not only the theoretical presentation of modules but primarily focuses on practical application through relevant exercises and examples.”

Dr. Nick Dallas, the GCM Head of Educational Programs, said, ‘We take pride in the achievements of our students in the VCE exams and in the consistent success ensured through the quality of our programs and staff”.

“The GCM’s educational program is comprehensive and intricate, extending beyond theoretical classroom lessons throughout the year. It encompasses various activities and educational interventions, exemplified by the VCE summer school.”

The workshop program is as follows:

Oral & Listening | Wednesday, 24 January

Reading & Writing | Thursday, 25 January

10.00am – 2.30pm

Limited spots are available. To secure your spot, register via the Greek Community of Melbourne’s website.
