Hi, I’m Niko! I teach physics and maths through personalised online lessons that help students understand difficult ideas, build confidence and become more independent problem-solvers.

I am a Georgian National Physics Olympiad winner and have participated in European Physics Olympiad (EuPhO) and Nordic-Baltic Physics Olympiad (NBPhO). These experiences have shaped my approach to teaching: explore the reasoning behind a problem, make connections and work towards a solution step by step.

I have worked with over 20 students, supporting school studies, exam preparation and olympiad training. I welcome students who need patient guidance with the basics, as well as those who enjoy a challenge and want to go beyond their school curriculum.

We begin by discussing your goals and working through a few questions to identify your strengths and any gaps in understanding. I then plan lessons around your needs, using your school topics, textbook and exam requirements where appropriate.

During lessons, I explain concepts using clear examples, diagrams and an interactive whiteboard. We work through problems together before you try questions independently. I encourage you to explain your thinking, ask questions and learn from mistakes without feeling rushed.

For exam preparation, we focus on past-paper questions, showing working clearly and understanding where marks are earned or lost. I also provide targeted practice between lessons and use it to decide what we should work on next.

My aim is to help you feel comfortable with unfamiliar questions and understand why a method works. Whether you are catching up, preparing for an important test or exploring advanced problems, we will work at a pace that challenges you while keeping lessons approachable and encouraging.
