This episode is a small revision of what we've already learned together.  Every beginner should master these ten important verbs: ειμαι, κάνω, μιλάω, καταλαβαίνω, μαθαίνω, ρωτάω, διαβάζω, ξυπνάω, δουλευω and πηγαινω If you can't recall all of them, no worries :) We know that it is tough to maintain all the new words and phrases. So, this episode is your chance to find out if there is anything you need to revise. As a teacher (and I am sure Ellis will agree too) can confirm that repetition is the KEY when it comes to learning foreign languages. In this episode, we also revised the following phrases: γεια σου / γεια σαςΑπό πού είσαι;μαθαίνω ελληνικάδεν καταλαβαίνωΝα σε ρωτησω κατι;Φυσικά!Τι σου αρεσει να κανεις;Σου αρέσει να διαβαζεις:Τι δουλειά κανεις; δουλεύω από το σπίτι  Like our podcast?
