Absolutely! For IB students, I provide guidance on:

• Topic selection for Mathematical Exploration
• Structuring your investigation
• Mathematical analysis and presentation
• Meeting IB criteria requirements
• Review and feedback on drafts

Note: I help you develop your own work. I do not write IAs for students, as this would be academic dishonesty.

Yes! Online tutoring is one of my primary teaching methods. I use professional video conferencing tools with:

• Interactive shared whiteboard for real-time problem solving
• Screen sharing for working through digital resources
• Recording options for lesson review (upon request)
• Digital document sharing for homework and resources

Many of my international students prefer online sessions for their flexibility and convenience. The quality is equivalent to in-person lessons.

Each lesson follows a structured yet flexible approach:

1. Review: Quick check on previous material and homework
2. Concept Introduction: Clear explanation of new topics with examples
3. Guided Practice: Working through problems together
4. Independent Practice: You attempt problems with my guidance
5. Summary: Key takeaways and homework assignment

I tailor each session to your specific needs, whether that's exam preparation, homework help, or concept mastery.

My qualifications include:

• Education: Degree from the National Technical University of Athens (NTUA) and a postgraduate degree in Applied Mathematics and Physical Sciences
• Experience: 17+ years of mathematics teaching experience
• Recognition: Named Mathematician of the Year 2021 on GoStudent among 2,500+ educators
• Leadership: Founder of Boffins Academy, Greece's first educational startup
• Track Record: 63+ five-star reviews from satisfied students

I accept multiple payment methods for your convenience:

• Bank transfer (preferred for regular students)
• PayPal
• Revolut
• Cash (for in person lessons)

Payment terms and packages can be discussed during your initial consultation. I offer package rates for students committing to regular sessions.

Scheduling is simple:

1. Contact me via the form, email, or WhatsApp
2. We'll arrange a brief free consultation to discuss your needs
3. Once we agree on a schedule, I'll send you calendar invites
4. Regular students typically have fixed weekly slots

I offer flexible scheduling with lessons available mornings, afternoons, and evenings (Athens time) to accommodate students in different time zones.

I understand that schedules can change:

• 24+ hours notice: Full rescheduling with no charge
• Less than 24 hours: Lesson fee may apply
• No-shows: Full lesson fee charged

I request the same consideration in return. I rarely cancel, but will provide maximum notice if unavoidable circumstances arise.

For our first lesson, please:

• Share your syllabus or curriculum details
• Bring recent test papers or homework showing areas of difficulty
• Have your textbook or course materials available
• Prepare any specific questions you want to address
• For online lessons: test your video/audio beforehand

Do not worry if you are missing some of these. We can discuss everything in our initial consultation.
