ReviewsI used Judith's Greek Script Hacking course to help me learn the full Greek alphabet up to the point that I was confidently able to read, write and even pronounce new words out loud the first time I saw them, in a much shorter time than I ever expected. It actually became natural before I knew it. I highly recommend this! -- Benny Lewis, bestselling author of Language Hacking and Fluent in 3 Months
