Mathematics

“Dimitris’ lessons are well structured, especially

his presentations. You can tell he has put a lot of

effort so the teaching becomes as analytical as

possible”. (Yiannis, Int. A-Level)

“I enjoyed my lessons with Dimitris; he sure knows

what he’s doing. His teaching, each time, had

a clear objective — you always knew where you

were walking on. Thorough when introducing

a topic and supportive all the way, Dimitris is a

tutor who makes a difference”. (Nicolas, IB A&A HL)

“Besides the actual whiteboard, I loved the virtual

one! Felt like being in class”. (Mihalis, KS3)

“I had a few lessons on planes and straight lines

from FP4. Dimitris went through the topic

meticulously explaining every tiny detail crystal

clear”. (Maria, Int. Further Maths)

“I liked how Dimitris introduced the “hat-method”

for adding and subtracting fractions. It was sooo

easy! The same goes for the circumference and

area of a circle”. (Sofia, KS3)

“To be honest, I thought the lessons would be

boring — not a huge fan of distance learning!

Dimitris proved me wrong. His teaching is good

and pleasant”. (Philip, IGCSE)

“It’s my second year now working with Dimitris.

I cannot remember a single lesson where he

hasn’t been supportive or hasn’t explained the

topic well”. (Artemis, European Baccalaureate)

“Very professional tutoring, no argument about it.

Further to that, Dimitris will always teach you with

a smile in his face; I consider that equally

important”. (Viktor, A-Level)

“I never thought that e-tutoring could be as good

as learning in class. Dimitris’ lessons were

of great help, especially on vectors. I feel ready

for the exams!” (Saffron, GCSE)

“Dimitris is using well elaborated power-point

slides to model the examples/questions, side by

side with the virtual board — he has an excellent

handwriting. His lessons are easy to follow, no

tricks there”. (Heloise, IB A&I HL)

“Within an hour, I had learned how to add and

subtract with negative numbers! After that,

multiplication and division was a piece of cake!”

(Niamh, KS3)

“I followed Dimitris’ instructions to the letter (keep

a folder, organise notes, deliver homework etc.)

and started gaining confidence in maths fast!”

(Dani, Int. A-Level)

“Dimitris is a great tutor — he supported me

in Years 10 and 11. His lessons were very

elaborative and Dimitris himself would never

get tired of explaining and repeating things”.

(Rachel, GCSE)

“I like the fact that Dimitris uses both the virtual

board and the whiteboard to go through the

questions. He will explain in a clear way and then

“save” the working out as jpeg. Having a separate

folder (on your hard disk) for each lesson is

a good idea”. (Pete, A-Level)

Biology

“Probably best tutor I ever had! Helped me raise

my grade from C to A. Very patient and organised;

has a way to make you feel at ease during lessons.

If I had chosen Biology for A-Level, I would

certainly ask for her support”. (Anna, I-GCSE)

“Maria supported my two children in KS3, the

whole three years, and I have nothing but positive

things to say. She knows her subject and prepares

thoroughly her lessons. Not to mention her

amiable character. We continue our collaboration

in GCSE”. (for Andrew and Elizabeth, KS3)

“Maria made me like Biology, which I can’t say I did

before. She’s a great tutor and if you truly want

to improve your grades then Maria can help you,

no doubt”. (Simon, GCSE)

“There is hard work to be done in Biology. But the

lessons with Maria were demanding and very

enjoyable at the same time. Never thought I would

manage to get A in the final exam!” (Kostas, A-Level)

“I started lessons with Maria last year, when I was

in Year 12, and continue this year as well.

The quality of her teaching is excellent. She is

a friendly and consistent tutor whose support

has been essential throughout the 6

th

form.

Thanks for all the help Maria!” (Vicky, IB HL)

“I would highly recommend Maria as a Biology

tutor, to anyone who is ready to follow

instructions and work hard. Maria teaches well

and knows which details to highlight in each topic

so you can prioritise your studying”.

(Katiana, Int. A-Level)

“We had some lessons on Organisms and

Ecosystems. Maria explained them to me in a very

simple manner and helped me understand every

topic I was struggling with”. (Matthew, KS3)

“Maria taught me Biology for the IB DP

programme. We had lessons twice a week.

Generally, she introduces topics in a comprehe-

nsible way and explains a lot. I got “6” in the final

exam, which I very much owe to Maria’s support

these two years”. (Debbie, IB SL)

“In short, Maria will teach you well and with a great

deal of patience. Nevertheless, she will insist on

you doing the homework and participating in the

lessons. She’s a good tutor”. (Vassiliki, IGCSE)

“Maria gave lessons to my daughter when she

was in Year 8. What I liked the most was the level

of interactiveness. Maria would keep asking

questions, on and on, so my daughter didn’t lose

focus. Following her suggestion, we bought a

drawing tablet so the virtual whiteboard could

be shared — that was quite efficient and Sophie,

my daughter, absolutely loved it!” (for Sophie, KS3)

“Definitely a strong tutor with solid knowledge

of her subject. She won’t go on with the syllabus

if you haven’t fully understood. She will keep

repeating that it’s not your fault but hers; that

she hasn’t explained properly. A thoughtful tutor”.

(Paul, A-Level)

“I don’t know how she did it but Maria would

always emphasize the things that I found most

challenging, even before asking her anything.

It was as if she could read my mind! Detailed in

her explanations, Maria will scaffold her teaching,

break up the learning into chunks and so make

the lessons interesting”. (Tia, Int. A-Level)

Physics

“George has a good pedagogical approach plus

a very friendly personality. Maria, my year 7

daughter, would always look forward to the

lessons. George is also our tutor for this year”.

(for Maria, KS3)

“I was really stuck in Connected particles and

Pulleys. In just a few lessons George gave me

a clear insight on how these things work.

Now I can solve any question on the topic without

sweating. You will have no problem keeping up

with George’s teaching, it’s quite straightforward”.

(Konstantina, A-Level)

“Through our lessons George helped me build

confidence in physics fast, a subject I didn’t much

enjoy before. Now, I like solving questions that are

challenging. Something I wouldn’t even dream of

a few months ago! I totally recommend George,

he’s a good tutor”. (Denis, I-GCSE)

“We worked in a group of three with George and

the quality of teaching was excellent. George has

his way of making everyone take part, instead of

sitting back and be a passive listener. The lessons

were far from boring. End of year we got some

great results”. (Abby, Timur, Helen, Int. A-Level)

“George will have high expectations from you

because, at the same time, he will show high

professionalism himself. He will explain each

question down to the last detail, there is no way

you will not get it! But that is half the work.

The other half depends on you, on your work

ethic. So if you want to get a high mark, you better

start working. That’s what I did and got an A grade.

Thanks for the support George!” (Angelos, A-Level)

“George helped me out during the IB DP years.

With his support I moved up more than two

grades (finally got a 6). He is a fine teacher,

organised, good listener and with proper

resources. Pay attention to his lessons and you’ll

definitely improve your marks”. (Alexander, IB HL)

“Even though we had only two months of lessons

before the final exam, George managed to fill in

the gaps that I had in Waves, Magnetic fields and

Space physics. Now that I look back, I wish I had

started the lessons earlier”. (Matina, GCSE)

“George sure knows how to teach from distance.

He’s using the writing pad skillfully alongside with

his pdfs. He will engage you into dialogue (so you

won’t fall asleep by the conventional monologue-

teaching) and generally you will have an easy going

lesson. Trust me, time will fly without you realising

it”. (Ken, Int. A-Level)

“A good and friendly tutor. Helped me in Year 9

Science. I improved in school, raised my grades.

Now I feel more confident. This year, he’s helping

me in GCSE. I highly recommend him!”

(Veronica, KS3)

Greek

“My daughters were fortunate and honoured to

learn modern Greek, literature, poetry and history

under the guidance of such a talented teacher”.

(for Maria & Argyro, A-Level)

“Katerina is a teacher who works closely with her

students with love and passion, inspiring them

to go the extra mile and achieve exceptional

results in the final exam”. (for Kira, I-GCSE)

“Good methodology and ability to transmit

knowledge building, at the same time, excellent

relationship with the student. Katerina is a great

tutor”. (Irene, I-GCSE)

“Under Katerina’s guidance my son got A*.

She’s an excellent educator and philosopher who

enjoys the thrill of getting her students to think

and question”. (for Ioannis, GCSE)

“Η κυρία Κατερίνα ήταν δασκάλα και των δύο

παιδιών μου […] Τα ελληνικά τους ήταν μέτρια

και η αγάπη τους για τη γλώσσα ανύπαρκτη.

Εκείνη το άλλαξε αυτό και σύντομα […].

Τα παιδιά μου σημείωσαν θεαματική πρόοδο

και αρίστευσαν στις τελικές εξετάσεις”.

(for Giorgos & Fotis, A-Level)

“Πέραν απ’ την άρτια κατάρτισή της και την

πολυετή της πείρα, η Κατερίνα διακρίνεται για

την αγάπη της προς τους μαθητές και τη συνεχή

υποστήριξή τους καθ’ όλην τη χρονιά.

Μετά από χρόνια μαθητείας των παιδιών μου

σε διάφορα σχολεία είναι η πρώτη φορά που

συναντώ τέτοιας ποιότητας εκπαιδευτικό”.

(for Anastasia, Ellie & Nikos, I-GCSE)

“Never thought I would find modern Greek that

interesting! Katerina made me appreciate

literature (especially poetry, she’s a Cavafy expert!)

and helped me realise that there is one Greek

language in different forms since ancient times”.

(Matina, I-GCSE)

“Καλός δάσκαλος είναι αυτός που καλλιεργεί

την κριτική σκέψη και εσωτερικεύει αξίες μέσα

απ' το ταξίδι τής διδασκαλίας. Ακριβώς ό,τι κάνει

η κυρία Κατερίνα στο μάθημά της. Θα μάς λείψει

πολύ !”. (Tia, A-Level)

“Ένας υπέροχος άνθρωπος, γεμάτος ενέργεια και

δίψα για ζωή και δράση. Το μόνο σίγουρο είναι

ότι δεν θα ξεχάσω ποτέ την πιο super καθηγήτρια

που μπόρεσε και έκανε το μάθημα τού Καβάφη

και τού Ιωάννου τόσο ενδιαφέρον και διασκεδα-

στικό”. (Δήμητρα, A-Level)

“Μάς μάθατε να σκεπτόμαστε μ' έναν τρόπο

διαφορετικό μα συνάμα τόσο συναρπαστικό!

Θα μάς λείψουν οι συζητήσεις μας, οι αναλύσεις

σας, οι επικρίσεις σας αλλά και η επιβράβευσή

σας”. (Year 12 class)

“Not only Katerina has taught me Greek language

but also Greek Philosophy, Literature, History

— even Greek geography! She's an amazing

teacher and an amazing person. Με βοήθησε

να βελτιώσω τα ελληνικά μου αλλά και τον τρόπο

με τον οποίον βλέπω τον κόσμο”. (Jeanette, A-Level)

“Η Κατερίνα ξεφεύγει απ' την πεπατημένη.

Με το ιδιαίτερο προσωπικό της εκπαιδευτικό

στυλ φροντίζει για την εν γένει καλλιέργεια τού

μαθητή ξεπερνώντας το σύνηθες επίπεδο τού

καθηγητή. Είναι αυτό που λέμε παιδαγωγός —

πράγμα σπάνιο στις μέρες μας”. (for Agni, KS4)

“Μια απόδραση απ' την καθημερινή σχολική

ρουτίνα. Μια δυνατότητα ελεύθερης έκφρασης,

υπεύθυνης σκέψης και πάνω απ' όλα ένα μέσον

για ν' ανοίξουμε τα μυαλά μας!”. (Thanos, A-Level)
