What’s the Ancient Greek Alphabet?
The Ancient Greek Alphabet differs from the Modern Greek Alphabet in the pronunciation of some of the letters. This app teaches the Ancient Greek Alphabet, which is used in mathematics, physics, astronomy and other sciences instead of in the modern Greek language. For example, the lowercase epsilon (ε) is used for an arbitrarily small positive number, lowercase pi (π) for the ratio of the circumference of a circle to its diameter, capital sigma (Σ) for summation, and lowercase sigma (σ) for standard deviation.
What’s Greek Alphabet Academy?
Greek Alphabet Academy is developed to help those who are interested in the Ancient Greek Alphabet, mathematics and physics and want to memorize quickly and easily the upper- and lowercase of the Greek letters and their English pronunciation. The two key teaching and training concepts are progressive introduction and focused repetition. The 24 letters are broken down into manageable units (levels) to ensure efficient learning and training.
What are the modes?
In total there are four modes for learning the Greek alphabet, namely Reading (Greek to English as well as English to Greek), Listening and Speaking. After completing all the four modes, you should master all the aspects of the Greek alphabet already.
What’s the Reading mode?
In the Reading mode, you can learn the letters from Greek to English or from English to Greek. At the beginning of each level, four letters are introduced one by one and you should try your best to remember them. After going through 4 learning cards, you will start a quiz game, which trains and enhances your knowledge. Along the way, you can always listen to the English pronunciation of the letters.
What’s the Listening and Speaking mode?
Different from the Reading mode, the Listening mode focuses on training and testing the user's ability to recognize the Greek letters by listening while the Speaking mode focuses on training and testing the user’s ability to speak them.
Levels and challenges?
In short, a level focuses on introducing and training new letters while a challenge tests what you’ve learnt. In a level, first a few new letters will be introduced and you should try to remember their Greek letters, English names or pronunciation (depending on the mode). Then you’ll start a quiz game to train your knowledge. In a challenge, you must make less than 3 mistakes to pass it.
What settings can I change?
Under Settings in Greek Alphabet Academy, you can change the font of the Greek letters and their English names as well as the button text. You can also enable/disable the button sound, correct/wrong sound (when you answer a question correctly or wrong), button vibration and vibration on error.
What’s the Explore page?
The Explore page allows users to see all the letters of the Greek alphabet (upper- and lowercase) and click on them to see their English names and listen to their pronunciation.

Ratings and Reviews
The bomb
I needed help remembering and recognizing the Greek alphabet and this app is the best one I have found. It’s also fun! Highly recommend if you are trying to learn Greek alphabet for the first time!!!!
App works well
App works pretty well. It would be nice if they added a section for lessons about the sound the letter makes instead of the names of the letters.
Black screen
Got to the end of a level and after the congrats screen it just turns black and doesn’t go on to anything else. If you get out of the app and get back in it just makes you start back over with that previous challenge (Challenge 5)
Developer Response ,
Hi friend from the US, I just tested finishing Challenge 5 on several iOS devices and I was always redirected to the Mode screen, which is how I programmed it. Unfortunately I’m afraid the issue you described is device-specific and because I can’t reproduce it, I can’t fix it. I’m very sorry for the disappointment.
