Meet our expert teachers

Christos Michailidis

Christos Michailidis knows his way around DNA, labs, and a lot of research papers. From studying Biochemistry in Leeds to specializing in Molecular Genetics in Leicester, he later spent 17 years doing serious research across Europe. Now he teaches Molecular Biology as an Associate Professor in Athens. And just when you think he’s done, he is also guiding students with their graduate research in Greece and the Czech Republic.

Polixeni Stavrou

Polixeni Stavrou has spent a lot of time turning “what does this question even mean” into “oh, I get it now.” She studied in Brighton and Sussex, then spent 15 years in England teaching and building experience in standardized test preparation. With extra international training, she got even better at breaking down tricky reasoning questions so students don’t feel like they’re solving a mystery with missing clues.

Antonis Mitsopoulos

Antonis Mitsopoulos has a serious relationship with physics. He studied it at Kapodistrian University, went to King’s College London for Theoretical Physics, then came back for more studies in Astrophysics and a PhD in Mathematical Physics. With over 10 research papers published, he clearly doesn’t take breaks from science. For the past 12 years, he has been teaching physics and making complicated ideas a bit less scary for students.
