Miss Georgia Katsiroumpa

Subject: Greek
Availability: Weekdays
Types of Tutoring: Travels to you / From their home

About Georgia:
I am a PhD student at the university of Leeds (School of Music). I did my Masters degree in Music Performance (Singing) also at the Leeds uni, and my Bachelor in Musicology at the university of Athens (Greece). I am currently a piano teacher at the Music School of Peiraias (Athens) with a permanent position, and I am studying in UK with a sabbatical from the Greek Ministry of Education.

Teaching Experience:
I have many years of experience in various conservatoires in Greece (I am teaching since 1996). Right after my graduation (2000) I started working in Music Schools, teaching piano, music theory, choral singing and solo singing. At the same time, I continued to teach piano, choral singing and chamber music in conservatoires, and give private tuition as a piano and singing teacher, as well as a piano accompanist. In 2002 I took a permanent position as a piano teacher in Music Schools after the relevant Greek Ministry of Education's teaching competition.

Tutoring Approach:
My would say that my approach differs from student to student, because I'm always trying to discover his/her personal potentials and, most importantly, make him/her capable of listening to himself/herself and correcting his /her own mistakes. I believe that the key to a successful music teaching is to find the balance between detailed studying and the ability to enjoy your playing/singing.

Types of Tutoring: Travels to you / From their home / Online

About joanna:
I am currently a university student in my second year at Kings College London where i am studying Modern Languages specifically French and Spanish. I am of both Greek and Latin American origin and therefore am a native speaker in both Greek and Spanish and of course English. i love to travel and all things cultural.

Teaching Experience:
i have taught children of various ages in a private Greek school in totteridge lane as a classroom assistant and worked with children in small groups of up to 5 children, as well as having taught classes of up to 20 children when a teacher was unavailable. At the school I had the opportunity to teach pupils with Special Educational Needs as well as gifted ones and I am therefore aware of their need for differentiation through support and extension activities provided when delivering lessons.
I have also tutored private lessons during the summer to various children in Spanish and Greek who wished to catch up on work they fell behind with.

Tutoring Approach:
I prioritize in giving individual attention to my students and to know exactly on what level they are. I am very flexible and patient and can adapt according to the needs of the student, but try to make learning varied and interesting.

Mrs Christine Liddiard

Subject: Greek
Availability: Weekdays
Types of Tutoring: From their home

About Christine:
I am currently studying for a degree in Humanities with Classics with the Open University. I am passionate about Latin and Greek and Ancient History. I have also recently attended a course in New Testament Greek at the University of Cambridge's Institute of Continuing Learning.

I learned Latin and Greek at school up to O'Level but two years ago I decided that I could no longer do without any Classics in my life and began to study at degree level.

Teaching Experience:
Before leaving work to start a family one of my positions was as a Staff Training Officer with the Department of Employment where I trained adults in job related skills. I currently manage a counselling and advice centre in the voluntary sector where my counselling role involves working with young people.

I also have two teenage sons myself so I am experienced in supporting young people in home learning and exam revision.

Tutoring Approach:
My approach is student-centred focusing on what their needs are whilst at the same time having a clear goal in mind. Latin and Greek inevitably involve learning grammar but I like to get students to read adapted texts as soon as possible so that there is a real sense of achievement.

If students are already learning Latin and Greek in another context my aim is to make sure that I support that learning. I aim to ensure that they have a good understanding of what they are learning at school (or elsewhere) by consolidating grammar and providing lots of practice which builds confidence.

Tutoring Approach:
i am trained in the Communicative Method of teaching languages. This means that the the lessons are centred around what the student needs to learn, and are based on boosting the student's confidence in the language and encouraging them to use the language as much as possible, without becoming scared of making mistakes. I aim to make my lessons both fun and effective, and to make the students feel like they are making real progress.

For the last six years, I am working as a teacher in several Greek schools in London and I am teaching the Greek language to adults and students aged 6 to 14 (from basics to GCSE). In addition my 3 years work experience in Greece as a teacher helped me to appreciate the importance of being a good communicator in order to be a good classroom manager. As a past member of Greek Educational Mission, I had the opportunity to participate in many seminars for the in-service teachers and realise that through team work you can share ideas on how to curry out or improve on specific tasks.

Teaching Experience:
1)Sept 1999-2002 Primary School Teacher, appointed by the Greek government, working in primary schools in the areas of Sparta, Crete and Piraeus (Greece).

About Alastair:
I have always enjoyed the study of languages and have a degree in Classical languages from University College London.

Teaching Experience:
I have tutored students from primary school to university level in Maths, Latin and Greek. This includes preparing students for exams and tests.

Tutoring Approach:
I try to structure my sessions between the core skills of language learning: in classics this is crucially reading and writing. My other goal is to develop vocabulary and grammar in an accessible format.

In mathematics my approach is to illustrate how to break a problem down into its simplest form and proceed from there.

Mrs Ann Robertson

Subject: Greek
Availability: Weekends / Weekdays
Types of Tutoring: Travels to you / From their home

About Ann:
I am a friendly, mature and approachable mother of two. As a mature student, I am very aware of how difficult study can be when one has other commitments. Equally, as a support worker with people with learning difficulties, I have learned how important it is to tailor learning to fit an individual's needs. Support work demands a person-centred approach which, I believe, is transferrable to student-centred learning. While achieving good marks, (goals and targets) is important, an interest in and love of the subject as part of an individual's development is also important.

Teaching Experience:
I am a beginner as a tutor (apart from classroom experience gained in my CELTA course). While my own children were at primary school, I did voluntary work as a learning assistant. This involved 'paired reading' on a one-to-one level with children and working with small groups in arts and crafts.

Tutoring Approach:
Unlike 'whole class' teaching in a school environment, I believe tutoring ought to be a golden opportunity for a tutor to discover and aid the tutee to discover his/her strengths and weaknesses and to build a lesson round that. The tutor should be able to let the tutee learn and gain confidence at his/her own pace, give support and help when needed but know when to stand back and let the tutee achieve. I believe individualised learning with different resources (traditional texts, pictures, projects) can be used depending on the tutee's needs and preferred methods of learning. For tutees embarking on traditional courses of study, I am perfectly happy to follow set syllabuses.

Mr Nick Pettas

Subject: Greek
Availability: Weekends / Weekdays (days)
Types of Tutoring: Travels to you / From their home

About Nick:
I have experience playing and composing music especially with my guitar and keyboard. I am primarily qualified as a music producer with many skills in mixing and mastering. I have been involved in many professional productions across the north e.g. in Dance City, and The Rheged Centre fashion show for Debenhams and Mercedes to name a few. I am an enthusiastic, creative and motivated person with a keen interest to teach. I am a highly effective linguist with great academic, technical, teaching and professional background.

I am a native speaker of Greek and English, bilingual in all modes. Educated in both Greece and England I have an advantage in understanding the culture and concept of each language, therefore making me able to specialize and understand the difficulties between an English student wanting to learn Greek or vice versa. I find teaching extremely rewarding particularly when contributing to the learners' development by passing on my passion for language and culture with an outstanding approach to lessons.

Teaching Experience:
I have experience in Teaching English as a Foreign Language to international students across a range of ages and levels both in the UK and in Athens. In Athens I was employed as a private English tutor and trusted by many families to provide good results for their children as well as adult learners.
Qualifications

Tutoring Approach:
After been a student for many years, I have obtained a knowledge for efficient studying, aiding students whatever the level, to achieve their full potential in Greek, English, or Music Production.

My teaching experience ranges from children to adults with extremely positive results. Greek is a challenging language however with my passion for teaching it, achieving fluency is possible for anyone that truly wants to learn. I am very flexible and very patient with a high understanding of the students' needs.

My lessons are designed to cater for students' individual needs. The materials used focus on real communication for a real purpose. I encourage students to make mistakes but also teach them to learn from them. I have always believed in the communicative approach for teaching, which ensures that students seize the structural aspects of a language or subject. This method shows a particular advance for my language students in becoming fluent speakers.

I also incorporate the use of modern technology in my lessons (used by NASA). It is a vital part of our everyday lives and I feel it is essential to the learning process. Regular sessions in the language subjects each week, would ensure full potential and maximize student results, as they need to frequently exercise what they have learned. Hard work and repetition is essential, but my experience over the years has taught me to make it fun and rewarding.
