About Me
I’m Leila, a science tutor with a PhD in Developmental Biology, a Master in Neuroscience, and a Bachelor's in Molecular Biology. I’ve lived and studied in different countries, which has taught me to adapt quickly to new environments, and to different learning styles. Whether your child is a curious 5-year-old or a focused 17-year-old preparing for exams, I adjust my approach to match their pace, language (English, French, Italian), and interests. My goal is to make science feel clear, fun, and within reach.

Mathematics: Be it algebra, arithmetic, geometry, trigonometry or calculus, or advanced topics that use all those topics, Math is a language and has a simple base that can be incorporated into anyone's thinking. Basically, you can learn to think Math.

Probability & Statistics: Statistics and data is present everywhere. A basic level can help us see basic averages and deviation, while advanced concepts help in simulations, predictions and are pivotal in understanding any data.

Physics: Kinematics, Kinetics, Electromagnetism, Solid State, Mechanics. All topics are easy to follow and draw majorly on mathematics.

All courses are focused on creating a clear understanding of the underlying principals with balanced theory and practical problems

Hello,

I graduated from EPFL in chemistry and molecular biology, as well as a chemistry teacher. I offer support courses in chemistry (general and organic) at university level. I already have several years of experience in coaching and support at this level for students in medicine, biology, pharmacy and geosciences. I am a very pedagogical and patient person. If you have any difficulties or shortcomings, do not hesitate to contact me.

Greetings

I am doing my doctorate in oceanography, I have a master's degree in physics at ETHZ, I did my bachelor's at EPFL (Lausanne) and my baccalaureate in France. I have been giving support courses for 6 years, both in private lessons and as an assistant at the university (supervision of exercise sessions) in maths (Analysis, Algebra), physics, and in general academic support. I can help with both understanding and learning, as well as in terms of methodology. I really enjoy teaching and helping my students and I would like to be a teacher after my master's degree in physics, I became a sailing instructor to be able to transmit what I know! Please do not hesitate to contact me if you have any questions

I'm an EPFL student . I tutor math and English fo all ages . I have been tutoring for a year now and i like seeing how my students keep improving over time, so i assign homework from time to time and do tests once a month to keep monitoring them .

My classes are designed to help students with their homework, to help them prepare for a test by providing them with additional exercises to best guarantee their success.

I remain very attentive to my students by trying to give them all my help so that they can progress while keeping a good pace of work.

I am able to help you with your revisions, your homework or other, up to the gymnasium level in the following branches:
- Mathematics
- Chemistry
- Biology
- Physics
- Computer Science

Having had as a teacher the author of the math-physics textbook "Eureka", I am very familiar with the style of teaching for which it was designed.

Holder of a Master in Neuroscience from the Faculty of Medicine of the University of Geneva and wishing to direct myself towards teaching, I give Biology courses for students at the Gymnasium or in Bachelor.

9 years ago, I started to give tutoring lessons in Mathematics, Sciences and French for the youngest, which allowed me to improve my pedagogy and to better adapt to each student. . I have always had fun teaching and this is what, in part, led me to take the path of teaching. This is also why I still offer my help in these same branches for students from 9 to 11th HarmoS.

On the other hand, my years of studies at the Gymnasium in Biology-Chemistry option and my Bachelor of Biology allowed me to have very good knowledge of the subjects taught in Lausanne.

I am attentive and attentive, the idea being to find the best possible method of understanding and learning for everyone!

Whether for regular or one-off courses, do not hesitate to contact me!

In Master at EPFL, I give courses in MATHEMATICS & PHYSICS of support, coaching and preparation for Exams for all levels.

MY METHOD:

I offer effective, methodical and personalized follow-up for each of my students, including:
- A general monitoring and progress sheet defined from the trial session according to the objectives of the student and the parents.
- A summary of each session recalling the essential points covered (method, example, theorem, etc.)

All sessions are prepared in advance by me.

️ --- Only 3 places left! ️---

MY PEDAGOGY:

Mastering and appropriating a subject requires developing an intuition: in order to know which method one should apply to solve a given problem, one must understand why these methods work.
My main objective is to accompany each student in the development of this intuition through various examples, while maintaining a constant dialogue in order to identify errors in reasoning.

These courses are aimed particularly at students at university or post-compulsory secondary level.

Don't wait any longer, contact me, progress and pass your exams!

Your student fails HARMOS OR GYM? I'm the man for the job Often, after 12 years of rehearsal, I've noticed that math is rarely the problem.
I have a global and fun approach so that:
-Your child succeeds in his year
-that he likes this material.
ATTENTION INTENSIVE COURSES WITH ME!
I am also a Physicist by trade with a Generalized approach to Science.

As a Medical Doctor with a strong academic background and a passion for teaching, I offer personalized homework tutoring in Science, Math, Physics, Languages, and Reading Comprehension.
My approach combines clarity, structure, and encouragement to help students truly understand what they’re learning rather than just memorize it.

Whether your child needs support in mastering school subjects, improving study habits, or gaining confidence in problem-solving and communication, I provide patient, engaging, and tailored lessons to meet their individual needs.

I’ve worked with students of different ages and learning levels, and I adapt my methods to ensure steady progress and genuine understanding in every session.
