+ | * Between the two world wars and until 1948 Greece accepted Romanian schools (preschool, primary and secondary schools) within its territory, | ||
+ | * The Aromanian language disappeared from all educational levels until 1996, when an Aromanian course was introduced at the Aristotle University in Thessaloniki. This attempt to teach the Aromanian language was made by professor-linguist Ntinas Konstantinos but the effort did not have a follow-up (it lasted from February 1996 to June 1997; the target group were students and scientists). | ||

+ | * The language is not taught in schools. | ||
+ | * Some Aromanian Associations are actually teaching the language. Each association tries to teach the local variety of its region. Teachers are usually native speakers of the Aromanian language without scientific background in the teaching process and the creation of educational material and teaching corpus. | ||
+ | |||
+ | - Aromanian Associations teaching Aromanian language in Greece: | ||
+ | Aromanian Association of Athens. Teaching from 2016 – now. Class: twice per month, target group: adults. (30 students). Each lesson consists of three parts: language teaching, song teaching (with emphasis on lyrics as a language teaching component) and dance. The teaching curriculum is in the 2 major dialects Pindean and Farsherot. https:// | ||
+ | - Aromanian Association of Veria. Teaching from 1990 – now. Almost 3 groups per week. Classes: once per week, target group: adults & children (separate groups). (30 students per group) http:// | ||
+ | - Aromanian Association of Anilio – Metsovo. Teaching from 2012 – now. Class: once per week, 2 groups, target group: children. (almost 20 students per group) | ||
+ | - Aromanian Association of Aetomilitsa. Teaching from 2015 – now: In Thessaloniki city. Class: twice per week, target group: adults. (25 students) | ||
+ | - Aromanian Association (Aromanians from Perivoli village) of Magnisia. In Velestion city. Teaching from 2015 – now. Class: once per week, target group: mostly children (30 students) https:// | ||
+ | - Aromanian Association of Distrato. From 2013 – now. In Konitsa city. Class: once per week. Target group: adults. (20 students) | ||

+ | * The language is not used as medium of instruction. | ||
+ | * There is no school system with respect to multilingualism. | ||
+ | * Aromanian associations depend on demand; they offer courses for both children and adults. | ||
+ | * The language cannot be studied at university level. | ||
+ | * Education helps to preserve the Aromanian language. The majority of Aromanians in Greece have no opportunity to interact in Aromanian. The number of children exposed to the language is decreasing. Some of the reasons are: a) it is spoken mainly by elder people in the villages; b) young people living in the big cities do not use it to communicate on their daily activities; c) very often Greek is the main language of communication between the members of Aromanian families. Therefore, the education of the language has a huge contribution to language preservation and revitalization. It creates an environment where the language is spoken. | ||
+ | * Outside of school the language is only spoken in Aromanian villages and small cities and mostly between the members of the family and during the communication with elderly people. | ||
