About Maria
I am an enthusiastic qualified primary school teacher with many years of experience teaching young people both with and without special needs as part of my SEN and mainstream teaching role. I teach all ages - primary, secondary, university students and adults. Having completed my Postgraduate Certificate in Education with Qualified Teacher Status at Goldsmiths and graduated with a BA in English Literature from the University of Worcester and a Masters in Special Educational Needs (on the inclusive pathway) from the University of Roehampton, I am now an online SEN tutor supporting students with and without special educational needs to access the curriculum. I also hold the Certificate of Competency in Educational Testing accredited by the British Psychological Society, which gives me the ability to self-evaluate learning needs and provide support to primary school children as well as feedback and suggestions to parents on children's development. I am experienced in supporting pupils with dyslexia, autism, ADHD and other complex needs and I work as an online SEN tutor to children whose family feels that they need extra support in their learning to overcome challenges and achieve their full potential. I am always looking for new ways of doing things and am dedicated to improving students' confidence and performance through effective teaching practices. Unlocking my students' potential and seeing them overcome challenges and succeed gives me an immense sense of pride.

Perfect! We have had the absolute pleasure of working with Maria over the past few years, and I can’t speak highly enough of the positive impact she has had on our son’s education. She has consistently provided outstanding instruction in Math, English, and other core subjects, tailoring her approach to suit his individual learning style and pace.
What stands out most is her patience, professionalism, and genuine care for her students’ growth. Her lessons are engaging, well-structured, and always encouraging.
Thanks to her dedication and support, our son has made good progress. We are truly grateful to have found such a committed and talented educator. I would highly recommend Maria to any family looking for a skilled and compassionate online tutor.Perfect! What a lovely tutor Maria is. She is very well prepared for every lesson and sets homework. Maria has really built up Izzy’s confidence on areas where she has struggled in both English and Maths. We are so happy with Izzy’s progress in such a short space of time.

I just wanted to share with you all about my amazing English teacher, Maria. I had the privilege of having her as my teacher for 6 months, and let me tell you, Maria was one of the best teachers I've ever had.
Maria has a teaching style that makes learning English not only easy but also enjoyable. She creates a warm and inclusive atmosphere in the sessions and is especially great at working with students who have special education needs. Maria has a deep understanding of the English language and is able to customize lessons to fit each student's unique learning style and pace.
Trust me, if you're looking for a teacher who will make English lessons a fun and enlightening experience, Maria is the person you are looking for! Maria is genuinely passionate about teaching and always goes above and beyond to help students succeed.
Excellent tutor. Caring and supportive for the students. Highly recommend. Thank you.
I am very pleased to write this letter of recommendation for Maria Vasilaki. We worked together as full time English teachers for 6 years in Mytilene, Greece. She worked for the summer months of 2010 to 2016 from the June to September.And she worked on a daily basis from Monday to Friday were she taught English as a Foreign Language from junior class levels up to the First Certificate in English B2 level English.
Her daily duties were to open and close the school, preparing work materials for her lessons and for students to take home for homework, preparing students for international tests in English, liaising between parents and staff, administrative tasks and banking duties. She performed her tasks quickly, efficiently and accurately.
Maria has many fine qualities as an employee and as a person. She is a dependable, helpful and cooperative person who is always willing to assist others. She is highly motivated and extremely capable of achieving her goals outside of her native land.
As an English teacher I can say her English is of a high standard, she can express herself clearly both in written and speaking form. As a teacher she was highly responsible and treated her students with a caring manner. I highly recommend Maria to you
