About Me
Hello, I am Christoforos, brand new here on Spires, atypical Greek Cypriot world traveller, former water ski champion, and online educator :) I was born and raised in the island of beauty, became the second member of the national water ski team of my country and skied along my island's sandy beaches since childhood, which was full of studying during school term and water skiing during the summer.
Apart from water skiing, another one of my five main passions in life is traveling. I have lived in 6 countries and have travelled to 50 so far.:) I live my life in all directions, connect with people and naturally build rapport with my students.
I tailor my teaching to the individual particularities of each learner (everyone is different and unique), and I enjoy helping my learners achieve their full potential, always with a positive attitude:)
Tutor Experience
I have ten years of teaching experience in Law and Philosophy.
First, as regards Law, I have taught at Queen Mary University School of Law, occasionally at King’s College London School of Law where I obtained my PhD, and at the Department of Law of The University of Cyprus. I am currently teaching law university students online (one on one tuition) via PhD Tutors and other platforms.
As regards Philosophy, I have tutored philosophy students in the US during my MA in Philosophy, and I have been tutoring philosophy students online in other platforms for several years.
I am a Junior Fellow of the Higher Education Academy by Queen Mary University.
I am interested in working with devoted learners who are ready to make a change and achieve their best.
