Greek Language Certification - General information

The benefits of Ellinomatheia are extensive and include the following

By successfully passing the Exams, the student receives a certificate that proves the level of proficiency in the Greek language.

The process of taking an Ellinomatheia Exam not only helps the students build good test-taking skills in a different language but also gives them the motivation to study the language in depth and follow a rigorous academic program.

By passing the Ellinomatheia Exams, students can also gain course credit within their High Schools and Colleges. For example, Virginia, Maryland, and at least 9 other states recognize the Level B1 and above as proof of language proficiency in modern Greek. As a result, our students can submit the B1 certificate to their High School to be awarded a Seal of Biliteracy on their High School diploma.
