About Me

Hi! I am Karina, a Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence student at the University of Edinburgh. With 3 years of experience in tutoring maths and English, I am passionate about helping others and learning. I love learning and giving others a chance to shine. Alongside tutoring, I have been involved with several volunteering opportunities where I did beach clean ups, worked with local non profits, and created fundraisers for organizations I have been involved with.
My teaching style is flexible, I can adapt to your needs and keep the class fun and engaging, yet still effective!
A bit about me--I love reading, yoga, going on walks, and spending time with my family. I also enjoy exploring new places and ideas. I believe that having a good laugh and helping others out is important.
If all this floats your boat, feel free to reach out! :)

I teach English, Greek and Spanish classes for children and teenagers.
Teacher with more than ten years of experience, I have lived, studied and worked in Greece, Spain and England. My experience with both languages has given me the ability to teach other people in a dynamic and professional way. I offer to learn about your goals, your level of English, Greek or Spanish and thus design personalized and direct classes so that we can achieve your goals together. My greatest satisfaction is communicating with my students in the languages I have already taught them. I teach the classes online because I also work for the cruise line. I greatly respect my students and their goals, but I always make it clear that mutual respect, mutual schedules, and mutual commitment are the only three points that I try to have in common with my students, since those points reflect that we are going to meet our goals. I love to bring up topics about almost everything, doing pronunciation exercises. I truly believe that if we use what we do throughout the day to create an increasingly extensive vocabulary and we are persistent, I think that in a short time we can achieve very good results. I am a specialist in breaking the ice and creating the best closeness or complicity to get the most out of my dear students, I assure you that learning English, Greek and Spanish will be fun and one of the best experiences you will have!!!
