About.

We have been active in the language sector since 1991. We started in Cologne, Germany where Anita and Adam Frogakis worked with adolescent students as German language teachers in German public schools, while Adam Frogakis also worked with German adult students as a teacher of both Italian and Greek. At the same time, his love for languages motivated him to collaborate with many translation agencies in Cologne as a translator.
When we moved to Crete in 1999, we founded our own company in Heraklion and continued dedicating our time and effort to the same activities. We created the DIALOGOS Language School for German language learning and the EUROFRASIS Translation Agency. ​

Established in 1999

Our company was established in 1999 with the purpose of teaching German and Greek to foreign students. In 2008, we were the first school in Crete to recognize the lack of a high quality Russian language center in the local language market, and, with the help of Tatiana Borisova, PhD, professor at the National and Kapodistrian University of Athens, holder of two PhDs in both Russia and Greece, we were able to offer comprehensive and high-level Russian language courses.

Our Goal

The main goal of our institution is to impart knowledge in an interesting and entertaining way, since this is the only way for the students to genuinely love the language and see positive results. Many former students of our school are now in Germany working as physicians in several German hospitals. They all say the same thing: that they loved the German language and culture thanks to our way of teaching. 
WIR L(I)EBEN SPRACHEN / WE LIVE LANGUAGES
There is only a slight difference between Live and Love. We can do both.

Since 2010 focus on adult education

When we first founded our school, we taught students of every age; however, since 2010, we have specialized in teaching adults.
GERMAN: ​The majority of our German students are doctors or students of medicine who wish to work or complete their medical specialty in Germany, Austria, or Switzerland and are therefore in a hurry to learn the language at a level that will allow them to find work in German hospitals. The majority of these students decide to opt for our 11-month  B1 degree acquisition program to then continue with level B2 after 8 more months. Two of our students who started with no knowledge of the language were able to pass an exam at B2 level after only 8 months of study! What a MIRACLE!!!!!
RUSSIAN: Most students who attend our Russian courses work in the tourism sector and wish to learn the language in order to communicate with their Russian customers. They are all very motivated and usually progress very fast. They can learn how to speak within one to two years and obtain the corresponding degree from level A2 up to level C2.
GREEK: We have had participants of almost every nationality. The majority of our Greek language students live in Greece to either work or study. Some of them live abroad but visit the country regularly as tourists, and are therefore eager to learn the language to be able to communicate in their daily interactions.​
