Ph.D. in Chemical Engineering, MIT / Diploma in Chemical Engineering, NTUA / TOEFL 104

Applying to the Ph.D. program at the most prestigious engineering universities in the world is definitely a stressful and tough task as they demand a nearly perfect score on TOEFL and an exceptional personal statement. A good friend of mine suggested that I should talk with Thomas Kalandranis at Dia Gerontoudi Prep Center. And that is when I found the best guidance possible.

Thomas’s dedication to his students’ success is unparalleled. He provided comprehensive and personalized guidance in every aspect of my TOEFL preparation, including reading, writing, speaking, and listening. His lessons were well-structured and tailored to my individual needs, helping me to achieve my full potential and score high on the exam.

In addition to his outstanding TOEFL tutoring, Thomas also provided invaluable assistance in the graduate school application process. He helped me to identify suitable programs and universities based on my academic interests and career goals. Also, he provided me with expert advice on how to present myself as a strong candidate. He helped me to develop an excellent personal statement, which greatly strengthened my application.

Undoubtedly, Thomas’ expertise and dedication played a significant role in my academic success.

I highly recommend Thomas Kalandranis as an outstanding TOEFL tutor and graduate school advisor. His professionalism and commitment to his students make him an invaluable asset to any student looking to improve their English language skills and successfully apply to graduate schools.

Thomas and Dia Gerontoudi Prep Center, Thank you for Everything!
