Hello, I'm Selin. I have a Master's degree in theoretical physics from Heidelberg University. During my studies, I was the head tutor for a course on "Cosmic Structure Formation" and also tutored for the General Relativity course. I have also provided private lessons in mathematics and physics during the last 10 years. In my tutoring sessions, I aim to make concepts memorable by using concrete examples and making the learning process enjoyable for physics and mathematics.

I am 22 years old from Indonesia, and I am currently studying theoretical physics for my Master's degree at Heidelberg University. I speak (almost) fluent English, but unfortunately not German at the moment (although I am learning :D). Therefore, I will only be able to tutor in English (it could be a great idea for students who want to practice English themselves). I will be understanding in the fact that the language is not the mother tongue of the student's, so don't be shy :)

As someone who is passionate about physics, I can help students to discover the fun in learning physics, that it's definitely not about memorizing the formula. During the lesson, my first goal would be to help students understand the concepts of the topic they are studying. In my attempt to do so, I will try my best to explain the concepts in the most intuitive way possible so that students can easily grasp them. After having understood the concepts, I will guide them on how think about it mathematically, hence arriving at some formulas. Therefore, they will not view the mathematical formulas in physics as simply some maths equation, but rather as something that represents meaning. Then the next obvious steps after this would be to discuss exercise problems, which will further enhance their understanding. But of course the lessons need not follow exactly the above mentioned steps; it can be very flexible and we will find the best method to help the students thrive on the subject.

As a student who studies theoretical physics in the Masters level, I have dealt with some quite advanced level of mathematics, and in the process have picked up several neat tricks. Therefore I am also able to help students who are struggling in mathematics.

Algebra:
Algebra can be a daunting subject for many, but fear not! I excel in breaking down complex algebraic concepts into simple, understandable steps. Whether you're struggling with basic equations or grappling with advanced algebraic expressions, I am here to guide you through the process. My approach involves real-life examples and practical applications, making abstract algebraic concepts tangible and relatable.

Mathematics (General):
Mathematics is the language of the universe, and I am here to help you master it. With a strong foundation in mathematics, I can assist you in various areas such as calculus, trigonometry, geometry, and statistics. I believe in fostering a deep understanding of mathematical principles, ensuring that you not only solve problems but also comprehend the underlying logic and reasoning.

Physics:
Physics is the fundamental science that explains how the world works. As a mechanical engineer, I have a profound understanding of physics principles and their applications in real-world scenarios. Whether you're grappling with classical mechanics, electromagnetism, thermodynamics, or any other branch of physics, I can provide clear explanations and engaging examples to enhance your comprehension.

Teaching Approach:
I believe in personalized and interactive teaching methods. Every student has a unique learning style, and I tailor my approach to meet individual needs. I am patient, approachable, and dedicated to helping my students succeed. I encourage questions, foster critical thinking, and provide practical insights that go beyond textbooks, making the learning experience enjoyable and meaningful.

Why Choose Me as Your Tutor?

Expertise: I have a first-degree classification in mechanical engineering, demonstrating my proficiency in algebra, mathematics, and physics.
Experience: I have a wealth of experience in tutoring students of various levels, from beginners to advanced learners.
Passion: I am genuinely passionate about helping students grasp challenging concepts and achieve academic excellence.
Support: I provide ongoing support and encouragement, ensuring that my students feel confident and motivated to excel in their studies.
If you're looking for a dedicated and knowledgeable tutor who can transform your understanding of algebra, mathematics, and physics, look no further. Let's embark on this learning journey together, where success and mastery await!
