Information About Aspasia - Greenwich teacher

Personal Description:

Γεια! My name is Aspa and I am a native Greek speaker, experienced educator, and qualified language tutor (QTS) with a rich background in both mainstream and specialist education across London.

I hold a BA in Primary Education from the University of Patras and a Master’s Degree with Distinction in Special and Inclusive Education from the University of Nottingham.

Teaching Experience:

My approach is shaped by years of hands-on experience supporting diverse learners — something that’s rarely found in standard Greek language tuition. I don’t just teach language; I teach the whole learner.

I currently hold an advisory role within a London local authority, supporting autistic children and young people through inclusive, neurodiversity-affirming strategies. My work is grounded in evidence-based practice and shaped by over a decade of experience supporting students with diverse communication, learning and sensory profiles.

I have taught in supplementary Greek schools in the UK, including the Greek School of Mansfield and the Greek School of St Demetrios, and in primary schools in Greece and Poland. For the past ten years, I have also been delivering one-to-one and small group Greek language tutoring to children learning Greek as a second language — both face-to-face and online.

Teaching Approach:

My tutoring sessions are not just lessons — they are joyful, carefully tailored experiences. I use a holistic, play-based and interest-led approach to spark curiosity and build strong foundations in communication, literacy and cultural understanding.

My goal is to help each child feel seen, safe, and confident as they connect with the Greek language — building not just vocabulary, but a genuine love for the language and culture.

In our first session, I take time to get to know your child — their interests, strengths, and how they learn best — so I can design a personalised Greek learning journey that evolves with them and keeps them inspired every step of the way.
