About Maria
**From EYFS - to Year 6 - SATS - 11+ and Modern Foreign Languages**
** Class teacher since 2013**
**Private tutor since 2014**
Hello, my name is Maria and I am a Primary School Teacher with a Master's in Mathematics Education at UCL and a private tutor. Coming from a family of teachers, I always had a passion for education and Foreign Languages. I currently teach English, French, Spanish and Greek and I am learning Italian, Russian and Japanese.
I have taught all year groups in different school environments as a supply teacher at the beginning of my career and, to this day, as a full-time teacher across KS1 and 2. Therefore, I have gained a vast skill-set which allows me to adapt to any child's needs appropriately. My teaching roles in schools of London and Bristol have provided me with access to many different resources and teaching approaches. Also, I know what schools demand from their pupils and that is why I am able to work along with their expectations and deliver useful knowledge to your children.
My clients have had great results with 11+ and so far I pride myself having a 100% percentage of success. I can help with Maths, English, Verbal and Non-verbal reasoning and prepare young learners in a rapid way.
As a tutor, I have the ability to detect the strengths and areas for improvement of my students and plan along with their needs. The most important goal for me is to ignite the love for learning and work hard to help my students feel secure and determined to achieve. I am always punctual, organised with many resources and passionate about my teaching.
So far, I have taken on students from EYFS to Year 6, who didn't really feel like learning and helped them gain confidence and work hard towards their dreams. Additionally, I have taught children and adults foreign languages such as Greek, Spanish and French and even English as a second language.
Please get in touch and we will learn together in a fun and innovative way!

Perfect! Awesome!
My twins are currently studying with Maria for the 11+. She bring out the best of them in a way I have not seen before. They come alive during the lessons and thoroughly enjoy their time with Maria. She is a very special person that was born to teach - a contemporary of Socrates. I give her my strongest recommendation.

My son very much enjoyed his first session with Maria. The lesson was well prepared and well delivered. Maria was able to listen to my requests to improve the areas in English my son was lacking in, and each session, she devotes some time for revisiting these specific areas. She can handle with 10 year old for an hour in a very professional yet friendly manner.

My child has thoroughly enjoyed and learnt from Marias service. At first, I was skeptical of this method of tutoring, however my child has loved it wanting to continue with lessons and continue to learn, year 6 has been tough for him to stay motivated and confident with school. Maria is professional and handled situations really well. I couldn't recommend this service more.
Maria is an amazing tutor, she is very patient and well organized. My son really enjoyed the lessons with her and only few lessons with her, I have already seen the improvement of my boy’s reading. Highly recommended.
My son who's 10 years old (year 5), had quite perpetual issues with maths. He's also had issues in verbal reasoning. Maria has greatly contributed to his improvement in these fields. The outbreak of the pandemic and therefore, my son's absence from school, made me worried that any further correction of the issues would be rather staggered but all these doubts have long been gone as my son is still enjoying Maria's support via online means. She really knows how to keep him engaged and focussed as well as she's managed to build the rapport with him. I do highly recommend.
Maria has an exquisite manner with our child. Almost instantly our daughter felt incredibly at ease, which I feel increased the ability to learn. Maria is extremely personable and clearly very experienced behind her years. She will be our chosen tutor over the next 18 months. The very best tutor we have found in the last several years. Five stars and more.
I am so pleased that Maria agreed to teach my doughter and made her successful with her Math exam.
Maria is very passionate about teaching and her students.
She is very organised and always prepared for every lesson.
My doughter used to struggle with Maths and was extremely anxious about her exams. Maria shared with her the love and passion to maths that she has and made her successful!
Thank you Maria!Maria has been teaching my son for a few months now and he has done very well learning from his on line lessons. He was original doing maths but now also does English.
Maria is a brilliant tutor! She was well prepared and her powerpoints were very well made. She made learning Greek a very exciting and enjoyable experience for my daughter, who made a lot of progress and looked forward to Maria's lesson each week. My daughter and I were very lucky to find her. I definitely recommend Maria as a Greek tutor!
Very skilled tutor, my son has learnt a lot with her methods.
100% recommendable.Capable of locating the basic difficulties in my first interaction with English pronunciation and helping me overcome it in just a short period of time with an easygoing and professional approach, Miss Maria Kalliora made it easier and more fun to communicate.
