ScienceSphere - GCSE, A level and university preparation for Mathematics, Physics and Chemsitry

From 45.09 $ /h

I am a physical Natural Sciences student at Cambridge looking to share my love of science with intellectually curious students. I seek to make science fun and accessible for my students. Having achieved outstanding results at GCSE (12 grade 9s) and A-level (4A* 1A), I know what it takes to prepare for public exams and I want to help my students to get a headstart with their preparation. I teach maths, chemsitry and physics to students of all ability levels.

My lessons are individually tailored but follow the general strucutre below:

GCSE/IGCSE:
Lessons are primarily content/revision focused. Homework follows closely the content of the lessons and I provide further reivision resources and notes after each lesson.

A-level and University preparation:
I assign problem sets for homework due 5pm the night before a lesson. My lessons in physics and chemistry focus on making the content intuitive, so students are understanding rather than memorising. Similarly, maths lessons are taught always from first principles to help students to understand the origins of the techniques we use. The beginning of each lesson is for review of questions from the problem set. These problem sets contain questions from the relevant exam board as well as extension questions to encourage students to think in more depth about the topics we cover. Homework is always marked in advance of the upcoming lesson.

Every few weeks I ask my students to sit a test tailored to their examboard so that we can track the progress we are making.
This class is intended to deliver academic results, whilst ensuring students enjoy my lessons.

Extra information

My lessons are conducted online using Microsoft Teams. I use Microsoft OneNote to share resources with my students and to go over their work with them.

About Me

Why does it take more force to open a fridge than a cupboard? Why is the sky blue? (By the way the answer to the question is that air in the fridge is cooled, reducing its volume and reducing pressure in the fridge. The fridge has lower pressure and a force acts on the fridge door.) These are the kind of science questions I love to explore. I am a Cambridge Natural Sciences student with an affinity for and a desire to teach all manner of science and mathematics.

Computer Science and maths for Computer Science Intro -> University admission

38.26 $ /h

I have a strong background in computational physics research and experience teaching both math and computer science at a broad range of levels.

This class is intended to form a firm foundation in Computer Science and the assosciated areas of maths for students intending to study CS at A level or university. Optionally, I offer C and Python coding tutorials and use code examples to help students who want to develop their techical skills. Beyond technical skiills, it is of the utmost importance to me that students develop the most important skill that a computer scientist can have - logic. Students might not learn about every area of programming or every niche language but this class is intended to equip students with the skills to solve entirely novel problems easily.

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.

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.

Hello! I am Hugo, a native English-speaking mathematics teacher from the Netherlands. I completed the entire IB track myself and understand the challenges students may face when mathematics feels difficult or overwhelming. Additionally, I have taken programs in finance and AI algorithms, which has further strengthened my analytical thinking skills.

I was once a student myself who hated math, until I found the right support. That is why I know how important patient and encouraging teaching can be. I teach in a calm, supportive, and practical way. My goal is not only to help students with their homework, but also to help them understand what they are doing, build their self-confidence, and prevent math from becoming something they hate.

In a typical lesson, I first identify where a student is getting stuck. Then, we work through the topic step by step with clear explanations and guided exercises. I also help students recognize common mistakes, improve their accuracy, and gain more confidence with the questions they find most difficult.

I really enjoy helping young people understand difficult subjects and be more positive about their progress. My lessons are particularly suitable for younger students, especially those in English-speaking or international educational institutions, who need support with understanding, building self-confidence, and making steady progress in mathematics.
