"I have completed high school and received a high school diploma from a British International School in Athens, Greece. I have received 11 International General Certificates of Secondary Education (IGCSE) administered by Cambridge and Edexcel exam boards. My certifications include: Biology, Physics, Chemistry, Maths, English Literature and Language, Maths, Greek, French, Psychology, Global History and Art. In my last two years of high school I completed the International Baccalaureate Programme (IB). I took higher level Chemistry, Psychology, Art, and standard level Spanish, Analysis and Approaches Mathematics. I graduated in the top percentile of my class and received the highest grades available in all of my subjects. I am continuing my education at Harvard University, where I am double majoring in Cognitive Science and Art, Film and Visual Studies, and minoring in History of Art and Architecture.

I have previously tutored middle school, high school and honors students. I was an assistant coach and tutor for children in debate, who ranged in ages from 13-18. I also tutored middle school children during the pandemic on their school material filling in any potential learning gaps. I also coached high school students in their college application process, helping synthesis essay ideas and edit essays.

My approach to effective tutoring combines active learning, scaffolding, and Socratic questioning to encourage independence and critical thinking in my students. I adapt to each student’s learning style, using methods like modeling, goal setting, real-world examples, and positive reinforcement to make learning relatable and motivating. I also use repetition and assessments to reinforce knowledge and ensure retention, while celebrating achievements to build confidence and a positive mindset." less...
