My Teaching Experience: I have developed and adapted the curriculum and deployed teaching techniques to stimulate and meet the student’s individual needs and support them in developing academic, personal and life skills. I have extensive classroom management experience, and have closely worked with and advised specialised learning support within the classroom environment, trained PGCE students in addition to outside school professionals - Educational psychologists, SALT, OT, and Local Authorities. I am professionally driven, passionate about educating young people with learning difficulties, flexible and compassionate towards children as well as their families. I am hardworking and a team player, with a holistic approach, promoting students’ progress and well-being.
In recent years I have become an independent tutor and a mentor for students across all Key stages (KS1, KS2 and KS3). I work closely with some of the best independent preparatory schools in London and have successfully prepared students for their 7+ , 11+ and 13+ exams; supported them in learning strategies which allowed my students to perform to their highest ability and overcome their additional needs. My students were consequently accepted to highly academic schools - Mill Hill, City, Westminster, Belmont, UCS, Aldenham, St. Pauls, Winchester, Maida Vale.

With extensive experience teaching in various contexts, I have consistently tutored children one-to-one alongside employing a whole-class approach. I am adept at collaborating with outside agencies to address a wide range of special needs, and I am committed to ensuring continuity in your child’s learning journey. Regular progress reviews are a cornerstone of my approach, enabling me to provide practical advice and support for strategies that can be implemented at home. My teaching experience spans across all primary key stages, and I am passionate about helping children reach their full potential by meeting them where they are. My approach begins with a thorough assessment of each child’s needs and strengths, followed by the development of individually tailored lessons to address any identified gaps. I strive to offer learners choices, ensuring that learning is multi-sensory and broken down into manageable steps. My goal is to ignite enthusiasm and a passion for the subject through depth, rigor, and contextual relevance. I believe that for learning to be effective, it must be relevant to the individual and should be a joyful experience. My aim is to always encourage my students to develop emotionally, socially, and academically, in line with their individual needs. I learnt the importance of holistic approach and use of mindfulness as part of everyday life in education. I believe each child can learn and achieve their full potential. Building self-esteem is the first step towards their success. I believe students learn best when his/her individual interests incorporate multisensory teaching and integrated therapy.
You want a SEN teacher/mentor that always delivers highly individualised and tailored sessions. In addition, I always adapt my teaching methods for unforeseen and unexpected situations, whilst making sure that the student’s needs are met; which may include dealing with their sensory needs, behaviour difficulties and/or low self-esteem as well as their academic abilities. During my career as a professional tutor, I have worked with students (KS1, KS2, KS3) and supported them in preparation for their exams or where a home-schooling approach was preferred. I have taught History topics in the form of project learning where students could develop a variety of their own skills and incorporate objectives of not only History but Geography, Science and Mathematics.

I have a deep love for history and performing arts and have participated in various small dance shows in my home country. After moving to London, I was fortunate to join the Rambert Dance Company for a while.
In addition to my interests in the arts, I enjoy swimming and running. I am also passionate about cooking, with a particular focus on Greek and Mediterranean cuisine.
