Demetris

I am a lifelong learner with a deep passion for mathematics and its applications in physics. I thrive on challenges, puzzles, and the process of building and creating. Every day presents an opportunity to expand my knowledge, and I am deeply committed to self-study, resourcefulness, and mastering the art of learning independently.

Tutoring Experience

I have extensive experience in tutoring and academic mentoring, having successfully assisted peers in achieving excellence in their undergraduate studies. Notably, I was approached by the parents of a student who had struggled with physics despite working with multiple teachers. In just one afternoon of focused instruction, I was able to help him grasp key concepts, leading to his highest physics grade. My ability to diagnose learning challenges and tailor explanations to individual needs has consistently yielded outstanding results

Tutoring Approach

My teaching philosophy centers on fostering deep understanding as the foundation for learning. I emphasize a mathematical approach—first identifying core principles, then applying them systematically. I help students develop strong self-learning habits and distinguish between memory-based and skill-based learning. By integrating insights from the psychology of learning, I guide students in refining their understanding, learning from mistakes, and managing exam anxiety. Many capable students underperform due to stress, so I focus on building confidence to help them reach their full potential.
