Getting started
I have never studied Greek or Hebrew. Where do I start?
Start with Greek Tutor. It begins with the alphabet and builds from the ground up, with no prior knowledge assumed. The Consistency Score guides your daily practice and the success path shows you exactly where you are going. If you are unsure whether Greek or Hebrew is the right starting point, the quiz can help you find your path.
I studied Greek in seminary but it was years ago. Is BMA for me?
Yes. Many BMA members come with some Greek behind them and find they learn to read for the first time. The placement quiz identifies your starting level so you do not have to work through content you have already mastered. Seminary Greek typically produces the ability to analyse but not to read fluently. BMA addresses both.
What is the difference between Greek Tutor and the Greek Mastery Membership?
Greek Tutor is the complete self-paced learning environment: grammar, vocabulary, exercises, the Consistency Score, and the full success path. It is a standalone product you can start now. The Greek Mastery Membership adds the human layer: live Beginning Greek classes, a community of fellow learners, weekly Office Hours calls, and Cohort Review sessions embedded at every exercise. Many members start with Tutor and join the membership when enrolment opens.
How do I know which level to start at?
Greek Tutor includes a placement quiz that identifies where you are on the success path. If you have no prior Greek, you start at Level 1. If you have some Greek, the quiz finds your entry point.
Greek Tutor
Is Greek Tutor just a vocabulary app?
No. Vocabulary is the foundation, but Greek Tutor includes the full grammar text for Beginning Greek, concept quizzes, parsing and identify-forms exercises, translation exercises in both directions, and the full success path through the New Testament. Everything is in one place.
What exercises does Greek Tutor include?
Beginning Greek lessons include concept quizzes, identify-forms exercises, parsing exercises, translation from Greek to English, and translation from English to Greek. Advanced levels add final translation exercises linked to Cohort Review recordings. Vocabulary is delivered through spaced repetition throughout.
What is the Consistency Score?
The Consistency Score tracks your activity across every exercise type over the last thirty days and gives you a clear number from 0 to 100. Green (70 or above) means Consistent. Amber (40 to 69) means Marginal. Red (below 40) means Inconsistent. It tells you what you have been doing, what you have not, and exactly what needs attention. Open Greek Tutor, see what needs work, do the next thing.
Does Greek Tutor work on my phone or tablet?
Yes. Greek Tutor is a progressive web app. Open it in any browser, add it to your home screen, and it works like a native app on iPhone, Android, iPad, or computer. Your progress syncs across all your devices.
How do I log in?
Tutor uses email-based login. Enter your email address and you will receive a magic link. Click it and you are in. You can also set a password from your account settings if you prefer.
Memberships
When does enrolment open for the Greek Mastery Membership?
The Greek Mastery Membership opens several times a year. Join the waitlist and we will notify you as soon as the next intake opens. An Academic cohort also runs from August, designed to align with the academic school year and complete Beginning Greek in one year rather than fifteen months.
When does enrolment open for the Hebrew Mastery Membership?
The Hebrew Mastery Membership opens several times a year. Join the waitlist and we will notify you when the next intake opens.
Can I join a membership at any time?
Greek Tutor is available to start now with no enrolment window. The Greek Mastery Membership, Hebrew Mastery Membership, and Premium Languages Membership open several times a year. If enrolment is currently closed, join the waitlist and we will let you know when it opens.
What is the Premium Languages Membership?
The Premium Languages Membership combines the Greek and Hebrew tracks with four exclusive additions: the Grammar Assistant, Advanced Greek Grammar Workshops, Cohort Reading Calls from level 8 of the success path, and Greek Certification included at no additional cost. It is designed as an upgrade for members already on one of the single-language tracks. At $89 per month (rising to $99 on 1 November 2026) it costs less than both memberships separately.
Can I cancel my membership?
Yes. You can cancel any time from your account settings. Monthly memberships cancel at the end of the current billing period. Annual memberships are not refunded on cancellation but remain active until the end of the paid year.
Do members get a discount on Logos Bible Software?
Yes. Greek Mastery, Hebrew Mastery and Premium Languages members qualify for the Logos Academic Program: 30% off a Logos subscription, plus discounts on books and libraries. The membership card in your Tutor profile has the instructions for applying.
What is the difference between monthly and annual billing?
Monthly billing gives you maximum flexibility. Annual billing gives you one month free and is the better value if you are committed to the path for the year ahead.
Live classes and Cohort Review
What is a live class?
A live class is a structured group of members who start a course together and work through it at a shared pace with a live instructor. Beginning Greek classes run several times a year. As a member you can join at no additional cost. See the cohorts page for full details.
What is Cohort Review?
Cohort Review lets you watch short recordings from past classes covering the exact exercise you are working on, embedded directly in Tutor alongside your own translation. It is available to all Greek Mastery and Premium Languages members, whether or not you are enrolled in the current live class. You do not have to search through a full recording. The relevant segment plays automatically.
What happens if I miss the live class?
Missing a live session does not mean missing the instruction. Cohort Review embeds the relevant recording at the exercise level in Tutor, so you can review the session whenever you are working on that exercise.
What are Office Hours?
Office Hours are weekly calls where Darryl and Neil answer member questions directly. Bring your question to the call and talk it through live. Between calls, the best place to ask is the community, where everyone benefits from the answer.
Can I get one-to-one coaching?
Yes, as a Greek Mastery or Premium Languages member. Book a one-to-one coaching call with Neil from inside Tutor for $75 USD: choose a time from his calendar and tell him what you'd like help with so he can prepare. If regular calls would help, Neil can set up a three-month block of weekly or fortnightly coaching.
Certification
What is Greek Certification?
Greek Certification is a formal assessment of Greek reading and exegetical competency, in three stages. It costs $100 USD per stage for Greek Mastery Members and is included in the Premium Languages Membership. You track every requirement in Tutor, sit the exam in the annual certification round, and receive a certificate anyone can verify. See the certification page for what each stage covers.
Technical and account
How do I upgrade from Greek Tutor to the Greek Mastery Membership?
When Greek Mastery Membership enrolment is open, you can upgrade directly from within Greek Tutor via your profile settings. Join the waitlist if enrolment is currently closed and we will walk you through the upgrade when the next intake opens.
How do I submit a support request?
Support requests can be submitted from within Tutor. Go to your profile and select Support. Neil handles member support and aims to respond within one business day. You can also email support@biblicalmastery.academy.
Can I get an invoice made out to my church or employer?
Yes. In Tutor, open Billing Details from your profile and choose Paying through an employer or school? to add the details your organization needs. Tutor adds them to every invoice and receipt you download.
