As a person with an engineering background, I sought help with the verbal section for the GMAT exam. I, therefore, embarked my MBA preparation journey by reaching out to Mrs. Dia Gerontoudi, who effectively guided me and helped me significantly boost my Verbal scores. In the end of our sessions, my Verbal score outperformed my GMAT Quant result (self-taught), a testament of the great support, tips and tricks and teaching effectiveness provided by Mrs. Gerontoudi – for which I am very grateful. More importantly, I had a great connection with Mrs. Gerontoudi; she was a great mentor and, even at moments of self-doubt, her words of reassurance kept me focused and motivated. Moving to the next stage of the application and having targeted the LBS MBA Programme, I worked very closely with Mr. Kalandranis to prepare the relevant and required LBS essays. His experience and expertise really helped me create a very strong and well-rounded application. The constant feedback and guidance proved invaluable to getting at the school of my choice. I cannot thank both enough for the support and guidance to achieve my goals.
