“It is an honour we do not take lightly; we are thankful for the Awards Committee placing Ellinopoula.com at the top spot and we are thankful to all parents, schools, teachers, students, and partners who trust and support Ellinopoula.”

The Awards Committee composed of teachers, experts, academics, and representatives of educational institutions and is headed by Ms. Anna Diamantopoulou, Chairperson of the Reform Network in Greece and Europe, former EU Commissioner and former Minister of the Hellenic Republic. 

The Greek learning platform’s CEO said she is inspired to remain committed to supporting Greek children in their education journey.

Ellinopoula is promoted as a more “fun” way of learning Greek, offering over 5000 interactive activities and over 400 “classroom” videos that “teach kids Greek as though they are actually in a classroom”. The website contains games, videos, and thousands of interactive educational activities for students and a range of management tools for schools and teachers.
