Christos

I am a graduate from Imperial College London and Westminster School with a master`s degree in Mechanical Engineering MEng and have undertaken research at Imperial College London in the fields of green hydrogen and thermofluids. I also proofread scholarly articles and research journal papers for institutions such as ETH Zurich and Imperial College London.

I have tutored for approximately 5500 hours over eight years and during this period I have helped over fifty students gain entry to higher education, that are currently studying STEM subjects at top universities such as Oxford, Cambridge, and Imperial College. The vast majority have obtained A*s and As at A-Level. I also tutor several degree level students, five of which have just been awarded First Class and Upper Second Class honours in their respective subjects.

I find the process of improving a student’s understanding very rewarding and focus on a wholesome learning experience, always inviting my students to ask questions and attempt problems by themselves before I explain a solution and subsequently work through similar problems step-by-step until the content is grasped. The main emphasis in my lessons is to develop sound conceptual understanding, followed by fluency in answering practise questions, thus targeting excellent performance in exams. I also offer advice on personal statements and help with interview and admission test preparation, and am at your disposal throughout the week for any phone calls about homework problems, university applications, careers, and so on.

All this experience throughout has kept me aware of the challenges young learners face, the kindness, understanding, and dedication that lies in a good teacher, and the importance of tailoring communication and teaching styles to the needs of the particular student. On that note, finding a tutor who fits well with your requirements is never easy so do reach out to me for a short and free video chat so I can answer any questions you might have.

In my spare time I hike and compose music for film (I also teach music). Instruments that I play include cello, piano, guitar, and I also sing.

Please see below my qualifications and I look forward to meeting you!

2015: Ten A*s at GCSE and iGCSE
2017: Three A*s at A-Level in Maths, Further Maths, and Physics (100% in five exams)
2022: Master`s Degree in Mechanical Engineering at Imperial College London (Hons)

Availability: I am available most days but would ask for at least two hours notice before a lesson - I may be in a meeting, so it would be good to contact a few hours in advance.

Willing to travel: 10 miles

Experience: I have been tutoring for eight years and I have developed an effective teaching style. Over time I have helped all my students to improve their grades in their respective subjects.

DBS Check: Yes
