About Me

Hi, my name is Nika and I studied Physics for my Master and then moved to the Netherlands to do a PhD in Astrophysics. Later, I moved to the US to work at the University, then to Vienna, and now I am back in the Netherlands and therefore, able to only tutor online!

During my studies I have tutored over 50 students (majority regular throughout their school years) in Physics and Mathematics. I tutor in English or Croatian, starting from age of 5.

During my PhD and after it, I have also taught Astrophysics courses at two Universities, mentored students, and held tutoring for both students and professionals wanting to learn more.

I truly enjoy tutoring and interacting with students. Based on the feedback, I would say students enjoy it to!
Physics is fun, and my goal is for you to see it! :))

Looking forward to meeting you soon!

I am a qualified and experienced mathematics tutor. Graduated from the Free University of Brussels in 2011, I started my career by teaching remedial courses in different schools in Brussels. I then specialized in individual academic support by following educational training at the Harvard Graduate School of Education. I have been giving private mathematics lessons daily for over ten years.

The students who follow my private lessons benefit from personalized support. The first session is devoted to an in-depth assessment of the student's mathematical knowledge. The objective is to detect its weak points and understand their origin in order to adapt my courses to its needs. I develop a tailor-made remediation program for each of my students aimed at filling each of their gaps. Over the course of the sessions, the student builds a solid foundation for learning and regains self-confidence. At the same time, I help him acquire a work methodology that allows him to gradually become autonomous in his studies.

I have a thorough knowledge of the mathematics curriculum for middle and high school (from 6th to 12th grade). I am also qualified to support students in preparing for international exams such as the SAT, the OMPT, and the International Baccalaureate (IB) in all its variations: Analysis and Approaches (AA SL/HL) and Applications and Interpretation (AI SL/HL).

Throughout my years of training, I studied and developed numerous techniques that facilitate learning mathematics. The strength of my teaching approach lies in my ability to explain, in simple terms, anything a student finds complicated. I am passionate about this profession because it offers me the opportunity to guide struggling students toward success. It is a true pleasure to see them progress and rediscover their connection with the fascinating world of mathematics.

I offer private tutoring in Paris (at the student's home) or remotely (online). My online lessons take place on an interactive whiteboard. This whiteboard is specifically designed to facilitate student/teacher interaction online. Thanks to this teaching tool, my online lessons are just as effective as in-person lessons. The student only needs an internet connection and a computer, tablet, or smartphone to participate.

- Help with homework and lessons.
- Complementary exercises and review as controls and exams approach.
- Advice and supervision at the level of working methods.
- Recommended teaching methods.

Currently, I am doing my maths aggregation. I am already an electromechanical engineer, graduated as a senior technician in electronics and electrical engineering and who passed my bachelor's degree in mathematics with honors. I teach in different technical fields and especially mathematics, algebra and electronics.

At the level of my teaching methods, I use those that are advised pedagogically, I always try to explain and detail as much as possible the courses and I do not pass to the following stages until after making sure that the student understood what I explained.

As a teacher, I already have good experience teaching with students for 7 years. What is certain is that I always make sure to go as far as possible to explain the exercises.

As a teaching professional, I have always enjoyed sharing my knowledge. My goal is to provide quality education. I am aware that some topics may seem complex, but often this is simply the result of an inadequate explanation by the teacher. With me, you will discover a real interest in the material!

We strive together to achieve academic excellence, overcoming the shortcomings and difficulties encountered by your child. Studies will become a pleasant experience for him. In addition to the courses, I can also help with school orientation, identifying their preferences and highlighting the advantages and benefits of a fulfilling educational ambition.

The sessions generally take place according to the following stages:

1️⃣ The first sessions are devoted to the assessment of the student's level in order to detect existing gaps.

2️⃣ Next, we create a personalized plan to address these gaps, including the number of hours of work needed, specific areas to focus on, and appropriate training and development exercises.

3️⃣ We stay in constant contact with the student's class teacher, to keep up to date with the latest requirements and ensure a consistent approach.

4️⃣ Subsequently, I provide exams similar to those that are likely to be asked in class, to prepare the student effectively.

5️⃣ Upon request, I write a regular report, usually monthly, to keep parents informed of their child's progress throughout their course.

I adapt my methodology according to the specific needs of each student, thus offering them a personalized and adapted work approach.

In addition, I offer crash courses for students preparing for the start of the school year, allowing them to start the year well prepared, with a solid lead on the school curriculum.

If you have any questions, do not hesitate to contact me. I will be happy to help you.

This online science class helps students understand scientific concepts clearly, think analytically, and perform confidently in assessments. I teach General Science, Physics, and Chemistry, supporting learners from different curricula and academic levels.

Complex topics are broken down into simple, understandable steps, making science less intimidating and more engaging. Students learn how to explain scientific ideas clearly, apply concepts to problem-solving, and approach exam questions with confidence.

I have worked with students following Cambridge, IGCSE, GCSE, IB, and other national programs. Lessons are interactive, structured, and designed to close learning gaps while strengthening foundational understanding.

By combining clear explanations, guided practice, and exam preparation strategies, I help students move from confusion to clarity and from uncertainty to confidence.

The SAT is a landmark exam for many high school students. A good exam score can be instrumental in college admissions. This course is designed to provide students with resources to set a goal score, make a study plan, and feel confident on test day. I got a 1530 on my most recent SAT, and I am dedicated to uplifting students to and beyond that score.
I can help specifically with the English and Math multiple choice parts of the exam. With students I will cover both content, the information being tested on the exam, and testing strategies, how to more efficiently and effectively take the test. The essay portion of the SAT has mostly been discontinued, so I don't cover it when tutoring for the exam.

Using real-life examples to help students understand abstract ideas.
Applying student-centered teaching methods such as discussions, investigations, and problem solving.
Ensuring lessons follow Cambridge learning objectives and standards.
Developing Students’ Mathematical Thinking

Cambridge focuses strongly on reasoning and application, so you help students:

Think logically and critically.
Solve complex problems step-by-step.
Explain and justify their answers.
Apply mathematics in real-world situations.
Assessment and Monitoring Progress

You assess students using different methods aligned with Cambridge standards:

Classwork, homework, quizzes, and tests.
