Teaching by Design

Dia Gerontoudi Prep Center is the only boutique prep center in Greece.

We offer physical and online preparation for GMAT / GRE / TOEFL / IELTS / SAT / LNAT / LSAT (lessons and courses) and we also provide admissions consulting , for the selection of the appropriate university, for the preparation of CVs, and statements, with the aim of admission to higher education institutions. Thus, we help applicants get into the world’s most prestigiousand competitive undergraduate and graduate programs.

We believe we can make the difference in our students’ lives. This was also our first thought for the creation of a postgraduate preparation center, and not just another language school. We are able to both mentor them and provide them with the required guidance (from university selection to the time of final application), and then watch them proudly, achieve their professional and academic goals. Our promise is to ensure quality training, continuous improvement, and absolute dedication to helping our students achieve their objectives.
