About Me
italki teacher since May 14, 2020
Hello, language enthusiasts of the world! If you have watched my introduction video, you should already know everything about me. Or, almost everything.
Personality-wise, I come across as a funny, laidback and quite an extrovert individual. But hey, that's for you to figure out as we get to know each other in our lessons. =)
I am an Economics & Management graduate from the London School of Economics and hold a Master's Degree in International Management, from Royal Holloway University. My biggest passions, alongside languages, lie in Civil Aviation and the study of Geopolitics.
Me as a Teacher
Teaching has never been on my list of jobs to do. I would find it exhausting and tedious, especially when kids were involved. Never have I been so wrong! In fact, teaching has projected the best in me. Being a patient and sociable individual by nature, I have found myself willing and able to create a friendly, yet professional atmosphere in my classes.
Whether you are a young learner, an adult professional, or even a parent who wishes their kid(s) could easily comprehend and communicate in English/Greek, I invite you to join me in one of my dynamic lessons, where you will experience unique teaching methods that will put you on the driver’s seat from day one!
My lessons & teaching style
I very much enjoy making my students think deeply when expressing their opinions, helping them identify vocabulary and grammar points, working and suggesting tips on pronunciation and guiding them through the highs and lows of learning in general.
I keep my teaching style simple and informal. We will aim at having a pleasant and relaxed time while conversing but will be subtly focusing on the end result, which is for you to learn/improve your target language. I have plenty of material at hand for every level and in both languages, while I also use constructive feedback to always keep you on track.
As long as you are motivated and don't give up easily, we are sure to make it through. =)

I really enjoy lessons. After each lesson I feel myself a bit more confident about my English. After some time I can even say that they made me more sociable.
I hope that they will always be as engaging and interesting as they are now.
Thank you very much!

Helpful in explanations; Start to get into the new letters and pronunciation. I feel having made a lot of progress, even though I am still at the very beginning.
