My name is Alexis Matthaiou , I was born in Athens and I live in Patras near the sea, 200 Km west of Athens. I teach Physics, Technology and Astronomy in Arsakeio Lykeio Patron, a private High School which is part of  Philekpaideftiki Etaireia , the oldest non profit educational  organization in Greece. I am also an active member of  “Orion”, an amateur astronomy association in Patras.

My motive for participation in the High  School Teachers Programme was to update my knowledge in the field of Physics and Astronomy. This programme provided a combination of  knowledge, practice and contact with the High Energy Physics and also with teachers of other countries with different educational systems.

I  like to teach and specially to share  my enthusiasm for the knowledge of our Cosmos with my students. I  also like to observe the greatness of night sky and to study the everlasting messages of Philosophy.
