Stavros M.
Private tutor in Sydney, Australia
Education
I have my Ph.D. in Theoretical High Energy Particle Physics (University of Oxford, 2002), a Bachelor's Degree in Physics (University of Ioannina 1998), and a diploma in business (Kent Institute of Business and Technology, 2012).
Experience
My tutoring teaching methods are highly personalized and are based on result-oriented techniques that help students overcome learning barriers. An initial assessment/evaluation and subsequently a personalized learning plan is made. Given that feedback is essential, I continuously communicate with the student and her/his family in order to adjust and improve the teaching experience. More independent students will come up with their own questions and a list of topics from the syllabus that need help with. This is the best way that tutoring works. More challenged students will require a scaffolding and specific lesson structure e.g. full syllabus teaching along with homework, assessments, etc. As seen from my CV, I have completed a Diploma in Education (DipEd, UNSW 2012) and I am a fully qualified secondary school teacher. I have experience in teaching both one-to-one and at a class setting. I also have extensive experience in research as a theoretical physicist.
