About me

I am a primary school teacher and special educator from Athens, Greece.

I graduated with distinction from the Department of Primary Education of the National and Kapodistrian University of Athens and hold two master's degrees: one in Special Education from the Hellenic Open University and one in New Technologies in Education from the University of the Aegean.

Since 2018 I have been working as a substitute teacher in Greek public primary schools, both as a class teacher and as a special education teacher supporting pupils with autism and ADHD. Before that, I worked as a private tutor and at a study centre. My work focuses on STEAM and educational robotics, multi-sensory teaching materials and personalised intervention programmes.
