My path to tutoring

Hello, my name is Michael Zhardinovski, and I am the founder of SmartSteps Michael Zhardinovski.

I have been giving tutoring for six years now – an experience that inspired me to found my own tutoring institute.

During my work as a tutor, I have learned about many different forms of teaching: group lessons, teaching in large classrooms, and much more.

But one thing became clearer to me with every hour of tutoring:

Personal attention makes the decisive difference.

My qualifications

  • Over 6 years of experience in education
  • Specialization in individual learning concepts
  • Experience with diverse learning types and difficulties
  • Completed seminar for children and youth work:
    • Group dynamics
    • Pedagogy
    • Conflict management

My philosophy

Individual Learning

With us, tutoring always takes place 1:1 - one teacher, one student. This way, your child gets full attention and can ask exactly what is important to them. We proceed at their pace, adapt to their learning type, and create a trusting atmosphere where your child feels comfortable and can learn effectively.

Open Communication

Personal exchange with parents and students is particularly important to me. Through regular consultation and feedback, I adapt the lessons specifically and support both academic and personal development. Together we find the best path to learning success - transparent and on equal terms.

Mistakes are Welcome

Many students hold back out of fear of making mistakes. At SmartSteps, it's different: we discover and work on mistakes specifically in tutoring so they don't occur in exams. This way we close understanding gaps and build confidence - because mistakes are the key to progress with us.
