About Petros
I am a passionate educator fascinated by Science, Mathematics, and Engineering. I received a First Class Honours in Mechanical Engineering from Imperial College London and obtained outstanding GCSE and A-level grades. I am therefore able to pass on expert knowledge to my students. Over the past six years, I have taught both in schools and privately, in person and online, accumulating two thousand hours of experience. My aim has always been to build strong, supportive, long-term relationships with my students to ensure they achieve their goals.
My greatest strength is instilling enthusiasm for learning in my students. My specialist skills are identifying gaps in students’ knowledge and breaking down complex concepts into clear, digestible explanations. This helps students develop genuine understanding and take ownership of their learning, rather than relying solely on memorisation.
My teaching style blends each student’s preferred way of learning with my own unique methods, which stem from my engineering background: I can translate theory into practice and use real-life examples to make concepts tangible and understandable to students. My lessons can be flexible or follow a structured plan — whichever benefits the student most. I am a very adaptable tutor, and if a student learns best in a particular way, I tailor my teaching style accordingly. For example, for visual learners, I incorporate specifically-designed diagrams, graphs, and schematics — whenever suitable — into my lessons. In addition, I usually assign homework after lessons to help students consolidate their knowledge.
With regard to curricula and examination material, I am highly familiar with the syllabi of almost all examination boards as well as what examiners look for. This allows me to give my students an edge over standard exam preparation, so that they perform brilliantly in their exams.
My output as an educator has been wonderful. I have helped more than a hundred students build confidence in their subjects, deepen their understanding, and achieve excellent grades. To mention only a few of my success stories are a Maths GCSE student who improved from a grade 4 to a grade 8, and a Maths A-level student who progressed from a C to an A*, both within the course of a single academic year.

I know of no reasons as to why Petros wouldn't be seen as the best option to be anyone’s tutor. I would undoubtedly highly recommend Petros for the role. I have known Petros for five years now, as he tutored me throughout my GCSE's in maths in which I went from receiving C’s and D’s to an A. What makes Petros a good tutor is his patience and ability to articulate himself in order to teach in the best way possible for students to understand. He is also committed to his students, often setting homework to ensure that I was practicing as much as I could both independently and during lessons. But he is also understanding and overall, an open-minded and welcoming individual who always does everything he can. I think that he is a passionate, hard-working tutor, and never gives up on his students!
I would defintiely recommend Petros as a maths tutor. He was my maths tutor for Year 10 and 11, helping me with my GCSEs. Before my lessons with Petros, I was stuck between a grade 4 and 5 in maths. However, Petros academically pushed me, but also was able to articulate things very well esepcailly when the questions we would work trhough were difficult. During the lessons, we would go through examples together and then I would try the questions independently. He would also provide me with homework to do for the next lesson. Thanks to Petros's help, I was able to achieve a grade 8 in GCSE mathematics.
