Almost 40 years of experience as a of Maths and Physics educator

I have been educating students in Mathematics and Physics for almost 40 years in two countries, Greece (my homeland) and Denmark (where I have lived for 17 years), in three languages, Greek, English and Danish, and on several different educational levels and settings, including: - the International Baccalaureate (IB) program, - the British IGCSE and A Levels program, - public Upper Secondary Schools in Denmark, - private english speaking Secondary Schools in Athens, - the University of Aarhus, Denmark, - private tutoring for pupils in Denmark and Greece, - online tutoring for pupils on different locations around the world, - non-profit organisations supporting immigrants, refugees and vulnerable groups. My educational praxis is based on the following set of values: - to inspire and motivate the students by my personal example and ethos, - to encourage and train the students in thinking, wondering, experimenting, exploring, discovering, questioning and developing critical thinking, rather than memorizing and reproducing, - to ensure the necessary for the educational process discipline, not by means of disciplinary sanctions, but by stimulating the interest for the lesson and by establishing a mutual respect, - to maintain a good balance between the theoretical and the practical aspects of the subject, - to acknowledge and accommodate the different academic levels and learning styles of the students, - to deliver a lesson that is animated and connected to everyday life. Specially qualified in: - establishing a fruitful collaboration with the student, by accommodating the psychological aspects of learning, - summarising the syllabus in a clear, systematic, structured and self-explaining way, which makes it much easier to understand, look up and revise. Degrees: - Pedagogical and Didactical Authorisation for the teaching of Mathematics and Physics by the Danish Ministry of Education. - Master’s degree in Mathematics and Physics from University of Aarhus, Denmark. - Bachelor degree in Physics from University of Athens, Greece.
