CBBB raises a very valid point.

There's no point teaching a non-native speaker Greek unless they are living in Greece - it has to be Cypriot if they are going to get the best out of living in Cyprus.

What do you know? Do you think people are going to spend their whole time conversing with peasants (like me :D ) in fields?

I can only assume from what you say that

a) you have never been to Greece or,
b) if you have been to Greece, you never had to adapt your language significantly so that they can actually understand what you are saying.
