Polytechnician (X) on Master's internship at EPFL gives mathematics lessons at all levels

From 42.22 $ /h

I am currently an engineering student at the École Polytechnique de Paris and am currently completing my Master's program at EPFL in Lausanne. I offer private mathematics lessons, both in person in Lausanne and online, to high school students and university students (Bachelor's degree).

I acquired solid teaching experience through a 6-month internship in colleges and associations (tutoring, homework help, co-facilitating exercise sessions), as well as by regularly giving private lessons.

My method
My goal is to support each student in a personalized way: understanding of fundamental concepts, strengthening acquired skills, working methods, exam preparation, etc. I adapt to the level and pace of each student, combining rigor, pedagogy and kindness.

Typical course outline
A class typically begins with a discussion to identify current challenges or goals. We then review key concepts and put them into practice through progressive exercises. I also offer additional materials if needed, and a brief debriefing at the end of the session.

What I propose
✅ Mathematics courses in Lausanne (in person) or remotely
✅ For high school students or EPFL students / Bachelor in science or engineering
✅ One-off or regular monitoring (refresher courses, revisions, exams, projects, etc.)
✅ Available weekdays from 6 p.m. and all day on weekends

Dear student,

I am a chemist graduated from EPFL (Swiss Federal Institute of Technology). I have always been fascinated by science and now I hold a doctorate in solid-state physics from the University of Geneva.

Science subjects can help you pass exams. I have been teaching these disciplines for many years during exercise sessions held at the University as well as in private lessons given as an independent.

For this reason, you will have the possibility to ask me for explanations on any subject. It is indeed useful that you can progress on the basis of what you already know. You will of course have the choice to ask me for remedial lessons to revise or discover entire chapters. Before the first lesson starts, I will invite you to explain your situation to me freely and free of charge so that we can work effectively from the first lesson.

All scientific subjects have in common a method that is called "scientific logic". Whenever the opportunity arises, I will offer you elements of this method because it is this method that will allow you to understand durably and to solve the exercises rigorously.

Your studies are serious business, demand that you be taken seriously.

Best regards,
Julien

This course is intended for people who want tutoring or special help in order to prepare for the matriculation exams, or even those at university. I teach all school math subjects, as well as college-level analysis and algebra.

If you need support in your lessons or your school exams I would be happy to prepare you and allow you to improve quickly. I can also allow you to get ahead of your program and learn mathematical concepts at university level (up to the second year of engineering school).

My experience with university and college students allows me to easily adapt my pedagogy to all levels in order to get the best out of it.
Classes take place mainly at my home or on the EPFL campus, I can also travel by public transport to your home.

I hold a Bachelor's degree in Computer Science from EPFL, and I am currently a 2nd year student of a Master's degree in Communication Systems at EPFL. I am available to assist you in your revisions, whether by helping you understand certain concepts, solving exercises or anything else that could help you.

With an average higher than 5/6 in the Bachelor, my skills in mathematics and computer science (whether theoretical or programming) are solid to help students ranging from primary school to the beginning of the Bachelor.

Having been an assistant in EPFL courses on several occasions, I particularly enjoy helping my students understand concepts with which they have difficulty, by giving them a new vision. I obviously remain very flexible, the most important thing being to adapt as best as possible to everyone's needs.

During a mathematics or scientific branch course, the student has specific questions or subjects to address (ranging from compulsory school to the end of the gymnasium in maturity/reinforced math) in order to fill in the gaps in the subject . If he wants to get ahead of the program or needs help with homework/exercises, this is also possible.

A student at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology in Lausanne (EPFL), I am currently in BA5 in the IC (computer science) faculty.

I have been giving private lessons since 2018 in mathematics, physics, chemistry and life sciences.

Holder of a Bachelor's degree in Biomedical Sciences since summer 2021, I completed a 3-month internship in a hospital environment in the psychiatric sector and basic research in neuroscience.

I have also been giving private lessons in mathematics and physics for 8th grade students at the gymnasium or in preparation for their maturity for 6 years. Many of my students have an ADHD profile, and I always enjoy adapting to the needs of each person, maintaining DYNAMICS in the course and doing interactive exercises so that the knowledge sinks in better. ..
I love teaching, making people understand and seeing that moment of light on the student's face for whom everything becomes clear!

Dynamic, I am myself a studious and serious student. I have gone through the challenges and stress of exams and competitions many times.

--> My goal is to give you confidence and provide you with the right method to succeed in your course.

I recently graduated with a Master's degree in Mathematics from EPFL, where I also worked as a student assistant for 4 years, notably for the CMS (Special Mathematics Course), the MAN (Upgrade), as well as for several first-year Bachelor's courses. I also served as a corrector for multiple exam sessions and wrote a handout for a course for Master's students in Mathematics at EPFL. Through these experiences, I had the opportunity to support many students in successfully completing their first year, often considered one of the most demanding.

Today, I offer private math lessons for all levels, from compulsory school to the federal maturity, as well as for Bachelor students needing support in subjects with a strong mathematical component.

Passionate about teaching, what I appreciate above all is seeing students' progress, their confidence and their growing understanding. My methodology is based on an intuitive understanding of concepts, through simple and clear examples, as well as structured support in reasoning. I place particular emphasis on solving exercises, because it is through regular practice that we consolidate our knowledge and truly progress in mathematics.

I offer private lessons in languages, history, and mathematics, tailored to each student and with a practical, dynamic, and above all, fun approach. My goal is for learning to be not only useful but also entertaining and motivating.

In languages, I work on oral expression, comprehension, and writing through dynamic activities such as conversations, debates, and practical exercises that help to gain fluency and confidence.

In history, I focus on students understanding the concepts and processes, not just memorizing them. I use diagrams, clear explanations, and engaging examples to make the subject more accessible and easier to remember.

In mathematics, I help students understand the concepts from the ground up, with simple explanations, guided exercises, and small challenges that make the subject more manageable and logical.

The classes are fully personalized according to the student's level and objectives: academic reinforcement, exam preparation, or general improvement.

My method is based on active learning, with a close environment where the student can participate without pressure and learn progressively.
