The above link should take you to the correct image, at least you get a free

I'm not too sure how much GIMP differs from my linux version and the OSX
version you use.

I seldom use text in GIMP but when I do a simple click and type doesn't
work, although when I click on the canvas I have a box thingy divided in
four, when I use my mouse to drag any of those corners/quarters, usually the
bottom right one, my text area is immediately enlarged and I can type to my
hearts content. 



I made a quick gif for you to see how I do it :) hopefully it helps.

You can also use the unicode values for single letters by typing 
  u
where  is the hexadecimal value of the unicode character you wish to 
enter.  The 'U' may be either upper or lower case, as may be the hex letters.

For example to enter the formula for the area of a circle, πr² 
  u03c0r00b2

Wikipedia has a good table of unicode characters:

Adding a Greek keyboard layout to  your operating system/desktop
environment of choice would be a sensible solution. There also
typically is an app usually called Character Map that you can  use to
copy/paste single letters from.
