Taught by an examiner

Over 3,500 scripts marked for Cambridge and OCR since 2022, and over 800 every year. How examining helps you

I know how answers are assessed. Students learn to understand each topic and also to read a question strategically, structure a clear answer and avoid the mistakes that cost marks.

I hold a Bachelor's degree in Physics and a Master's degree in New Technologies for Education. View my certificates

Common questions

Which subjects and levels do you teach?

I teach Physics and Mathematics for IB, A-Level, International A-Level (IAL), IGCSE and the European Baccalaureate, and I prepare students for the ESAT, IMAT and Humanitas admissions tests and for the Boswell-Beta exams for Dutch universities.

Are the lessons online?

Yes. All lessons are one-to-one and online, for students in Greece and internationally.

What about ESAT, IMAT and Humanitas?

ESAT (Engineering and Science Admissions Test) is the test for many engineering and science courses, including at Cambridge and Imperial. IMAT (International Medical Admissions Test) is used for English-taught medicine courses at Italian universities. Humanitas University in Milan uses its own admission test, the HUMAT, which is separate from the IMAT. I help students prepare for these tests.

Why does it matter that you are an examiner?

I have marked exam papers for Cambridge and OCR since 2022, and more than 3,500 scripts so far. I know how answers are assessed, so students learn to read questions strategically, structure answers clearly and avoid mistakes that cost marks.

Can you help with other subjects?

My own subjects are Physics and Maths. If you need help in another subject, send me a message and I will direct you to established colleagues I work with and trust.
