We are going through a period of decline during which we find that the modern world is full of all kinds of problems at all levels: environmental, social, economic, crime, impersonal human relationships, wars, etc. The Western world, at least, was based on material values and now it is slowly degrading and collapsing.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>Modern educational systems have mainly shaped children with learning difficulties, antisocial to criminal behavior, and psychological problems.

How is it possible for the modern world to have the most advanced technology and the greatest abundance of material goods, but to collapse morally and people do not enjoy the existing goods? Everything is a matter of education. Modern societies, with the educational systems they adopted, the standards they put forward and the way of life they promoted, have failed miserably.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"vc_col-md-6 wpb_column vc_column_container hide_on_tablets hide_on_mobiles has_bg_color\"><div class=\"vc_column-inner us_custom_c369d9d3\"><div class=\"wpb_wrapper\"><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/section><section class=\"l-section wpb_row height_medium\"><div class=\"l-section-overlay\" style=\"background:linear-gradient(0deg, rgba(255,255,255,0.49) 0%,#ffffff 100%)\"><\/div><div class=\"l-section-h i-cf\"><div class=\"g-cols vc_row via_flex valign_top type_default stacking_default\"><div class=\"vc_col-sm-12 wpb_column vc_column_container\"><div class=\"vc_column-inner\"><div class=\"wpb_wrapper\"><div class=\"w-image align_center\"><div class=\"w-image-h\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"600\" height=\"39\" src=\"https:\/\/hermeion.gr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Divider-1-600x39.png\" class=\"attachment-woocommerce_single size-woocommerce_single\" alt=\"\" loading=\"lazy\" srcset=\"https:\/\/hermeion.gr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Divider-1-600x39.png 600w, https:\/\/hermeion.gr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Divider-1-300x20.png 300w, https:\/\/hermeion.gr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Divider-1-18x1.png 18w, https:\/\/hermeion.gr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Divider-1.png 981w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/div><\/div><div class=\"w-separator size_small\"><\/div><div class=\"wpb_text_column us_custom_432d3f53\"><div class=\"wpb_wrapper\"><p><span>In order to improve this situation, a deep and substantial education is needed. The education systems of ancient Greece have been tested over time and have shown that they have created unsurpassed philosophers, scientists, generals, artists, etc., whom we still admire and study worldwide. Above all, however, ancient Greek education created a vast human-centered culture in harmony with nature, which advocates values and ideals that can shape free, balanced and happy people.<\/span><\/p>\n<h4 style=\"text-align: center;\"><em><strong>\u00abThe blissful is free, but the free is the soulful\u2019<\/strong><\/em><\/h4>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span>Pericles' epitaph speech, <em>Thucydides.<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>Hermeion aims to teach children the ancient Greek language and culture with whatever it stands for. In this way, children will strengthen their linguistic and consequently mental abilities on the one hand, and on the other hand they will form discernment, perception, sense of measure, ethos, standards, values, ideals. way of thinking and a worldview in general. The supplies they will gain will not only benefit them in their school career, but will accompany them throughout their lives, helping them to manage any circumstance that presents themselves.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>In order to achieve its teaching goals, Hermeion employs a variety of playful and child-centered teaching methods in combination with many years of teaching experience in children.\u00a0<\/span><span>It avoids burdening young students with an additional extracurricular activity, which will be useless if it is treated as a juggernaut. That is why in lessons children are encouraged to discuss and express their opinions. Knowledge is offered to them as their own conquest and not as ready-made information. All the teaching subjects are lined with rich images, audiovisual material, songs, games, paintings, theatrical events and constructions. Using these and many other teaching aids, Hermeion cultivates in children a love of learning. Hermeion wishes his disciples to be happy and satisfied.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/section>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"\u1f29 \u03a6\u03b9\u03bb\u03bf\u03c3\u03bf\u03c6\u03af\u03b1 \u03bc\u03b1\u03c2\u03a4\u1f78 \u1f19\u03c1\u03bc\u03b5\u1fd6\u03bf\u03bd \u03b5\u1f36\u03bd\u03b1\u03b9 \u03bc\u03af\u03b1 \u03c3\u03c7\u03bf\u03bb\u1f74 \u03c0\u03bf\u1f7a \u03c0\u03c1\u03bf\u03c3\u03c6\u03ad\u03c1\u03b5\u03b9 \u03b2\u03b1\u03b8\u03cd\u03c4\u03b1\u03c4\u03b7 \u03c0\u03b1\u03b9\u03b4\u03b5\u03af\u03b1 \u03c3\u03c4\u1f70 \u03c0\u03b1\u03b9\u03b4\u03b9\u03ac \u1f61\u03c2 \u1f10\u03c6\u03cc\u03b4\u03b9\u03bf \u03b6\u03c9\u1fc6\u03c2. \u0394\u03b9\u03b1\u03bd\u03cd\u03bf\u03c5\u03bc\u03b5 \u03bc\u03af\u03b1 \u03c0\u03b5\u03c1\u03af\u03bf\u03b4\u03bf \u03c0\u03b1\u03c1\u03b1\u03ba\u03bc\u1fc6\u03c2 \u03ba\u03b1\u03c4\u1f70 \u03c4\u1f74\u03bd \u1f41\u03c0\u03bf\u03af\u03b1 \u03b4\u03b9\u03b1\u03c0\u03b9\u03c3\u03c4\u03ce\u03bd\u03bf\u03c5\u03bc\u03b5, \u1f45\u03c4\u03b9 \u1f41 \u03c3\u03cd\u03b3\u03c7\u03c1\u03bf\u03bd\u03bf\u03c2 \u03ba\u03cc\u03c3\u03bc\u03bf\u03c2 \u03b2\u03c1\u03af\u03b8\u03b5\u03b9 \u1f00\u03c0\u1f78 \u03c0\u03b1\u03bd\u03c4\u1f78\u03c2 \u03b5\u1f34\u03b4\u03bf\u03c5\u03c2 \u03c0\u03c1\u03bf\u03b2\u03bb\u03ae\u03bc\u03b1\u03c4\u03b1 \u03c3\u1f72 \u1f45\u03bb\u03b1 \u03c4\u1f70 \u1f10\u03c0\u03af\u03c0\u03b5\u03b4\u03b1: \u03c0\u03b5\u03c1\u03b9\u03b2\u03b1\u03bb\u03bb\u03bf\u03bd\u03c4\u03b9\u03ba\u03ac, \u03ba\u03bf\u03b9\u03bd\u03c9\u03bd\u03b9\u03ba\u03ac, \u03bf\u1f30\u03ba\u03bf\u03bd\u03bf\u03bc\u03b9\u03ba\u03ac, \u1f10\u03b3\u03ba\u03bb\u03b7\u03bc\u03b1\u03c4\u03b9\u03ba\u03cc\u03c4\u03b7\u03c4\u03b1, \u1f00\u03c0\u03c1\u03cc\u03c3\u03c9\u03c0\u03b5\u03c2 \u1f00\u03bd\u03b8\u03c1\u03ce\u03c0\u03b9\u03bd\u03b5\u03c2 \u03c3\u03c7\u03ad\u03c3\u03b5\u03b9\u03c2, \u03c0\u03cc\u03bb\u03b5\u03bc\u03bf\u03b9 \u03ba\u03bb\u03c0. \u1f49 \u03b4\u03c5\u03c4\u03b9\u03ba\u03cc\u03c2, \u03c4\u03bf\u03c5\u03bb\u03ac\u03c7\u03b9\u03c3\u03c4\u03bf\u03bd, \u03ba\u03cc\u03c3\u03bc\u03bf\u03c2 \u03c3\u03c4\u03b7\u03c1\u03af\u03c7\u03c4\u03b7\u03ba\u03b5 \u03c3\u1f72 \u1f51\u03bb\u03b9\u03ba\u1f72\u03c2 \u1f00\u03be\u03af\u03b5\u03c2 \u03ba\u03b1\u1f76...","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":14,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-36","page","type-page","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/hermeion.gr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/36","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/hermeion.gr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/hermeion.gr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/hermeion.gr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/hermeion.gr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=36"}],"version-history":[{"count":9,"href":"https:\/\/hermeion.gr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/36\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":594,"href":"https:\/\/hermeion.gr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/36\/revisions\/594"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/hermeion.gr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/14"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/hermeion.gr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=36"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
