I am a Mathematician with a specialization in Mathematics Education and I provide private tutoring in Mathematics for students in Primary and Secondary Education.
I have graduated from the National and Kapodistrian University of Athens, Greece and I am currently a Master's student in Educational Studies at KU Leuven.

My goal is to adapt the teaching of Mathematics to the individual needs of the student.
Every child thinks, creates, and learns differently and this is something I encourage my students to discover.
I build students' self-confidence by encouraging them to take initiative and not be afraid to dare even if they are wrong. In this way, they gain confidence and stop seeing Mathematics as something unattainable.

About Me
My name is Maria, and I am Greek. I am currently in Leuven to complete my 2- years Master's program at KU Leuven. I am really passionate about children's empowerment through teaching.

I also love traveling and learning through discovering new places.

- As for the lessons.
The lessons are about mathematics of secondary education. More specifically, I will assist in the theoretical processing of mathematics as its application (the exercises).
In addition, I will provide additional study material (aids, schedules, ...) if necessary.

- Way of handling.
I would like to have an overview in advance of the study material, the tests or tasks in which certain problems are visible, .... This way I can prepare the lessons in advance and focus on the problem. In addition, I can estimate / determine his / her level in this way.
I try, in a simple way and for the student in an understandable way, to explain the course in a different way so that this is clear to the student. Afterwards I like to enjoy the results.

- Why am I doing this?
Math is a passion of mine and for me there is nothing more fun than sharing my passion. Unfortunately, my love for mathematics is not part of my studies and that is why I like to do this as a hobby and as an extra income. Of course I work professionally.

- Experiences?
I love nothing more than tutoring my fellow students about the subject matter. This is appreciated by them.
Of course I also have experience in tutoring mathematics of both primary and secondary education.

- Who am I?
My name is Arina and I'm a law student. I'm 26 years old and live and rent a room in Leuven.

I'm very approachable, enthusiastic, and open. In my experience, this often helps strengthen my bond with the young person, making them feel comfortable around me. They feel comfortable asking any questions they have. They feel comfortable calling or texting me if they're stuck on an exercise. Even later, when I'm no longer tutoring them, they feel comfortable asking questions if they get stuck.

In secondary school itself, I had a less good experience in the first and second year of secondary school in the subject of mathematics.
I found it a very interesting subject, but I just couldn't grasp it. Throughout those years, I had the same teacher, who didn't teach me the material in a way that was right for me.

After receiving tutoring (forced by my parents), my interest in mathematics grew so much that I studied economics and mathematics for the next few years. My love for mathematics just won't go away...
Because I no longer received any mathematics lessons in my further education, I chose to fill this gap by giving private lessons myself.
