Hi, I'm Luis — physics PhD candidate and private tutor based in Uccle. I help students build genuine understanding in physics and mathematics, not just memorize exam tricks. Twelve years of teaching experience, from kids' science workshops to university-level electromagnetism.

Subjects
-Physics: IB SL/HL, A-Level, IGCSE, Belgian/French secondary, university-level (mechanics, electromagnetism, thermodynamics, waves, modern physics)
-Mathematics: IB SL/HL (Analysis & Approaches), A-Level, IGCSE, calculus, linear algebra, problem-solving for STEM entrance prep
-University support for first- and second-year STEM students (ULB, VUB, UCLouvain, KU Leuven)

Languages: English (C2), Spanish (native), basic French.

Background
-PhD candidate in solid state physics (Oklahoma State University, currently on academic leave in Brussels)
-5 years as university teaching assistant in electromagnetism
-Private tutor since 2014 — secondary through university level
-Science communicator (informal STEM education programmes)
-2025 monitor at a EEUU physics summer camp for children aged 9–12
-BSc in Physics, Universidad Simón Bolívar

How I teach
-First session is diagnostic: we map where the actual gaps are, not where the student thinks they are
-Build from first principles, then layer in exam technique and past-paper drills
-Honest, specific feedback — for the student and, when useful, for parents
-Comfortable with anxious students and with strong students who want to be pushed

Format
-Online via video, or at the student's home within Brussels Region for regular bookings.
-Send me a message with: level (IB / A-Level / university / Belgian secondary), the topic or exam coming up, and your timeline. I'll reply within 24 hours.

Welcome to my Foundation Course in Science and Maths, specially designed for primary, secondary, and high school students in Amsterdam. This course aims to build a strong foundation in these critical subjects, ensuring students excel academically and develop a genuine love for learning.

My teaching approach is focused on making learning enjoyable and engaging. I incorporate interactive activities and hands-on experiments to bring Science and Maths concepts to life. By involving students in these dynamic learning experiences, I aim to transform abstract concepts into tangible understanding. Each session is thoughtfully designed to keep students interested and motivated, minimizing fatigue and maximizing retention.

I believe in simplifying complex topics, breaking them down into easy-to-understand segments. This approach helps students grasp and retain challenging concepts with ease. Techniques such as mnemonic devices, visual aids, and real-life examples are integral to my method, ensuring that formulas and concepts are not just memorized, but truly understood.

Regular assessments are conducted to track student progress and identify areas needing improvement. These tests also prepare students for their school exams, ultimately boosting their confidence. I understand the importance of keeping parents informed and involved in their child’s academic journey. That's why I provide weekly reports detailing their child’s progress, strengths, and areas for improvement. This continuous feedback loop ensures that parents are aware of their child’s development and can support their learning at home.

Encouraging words and positive feedback are integral to my teaching method. I strive to build students' self-confidence and to instill a love for learning through positive reinforcement. Setting achievable goals for each student, I celebrate their successes and motivate them to strive for excellence. This goal-setting approach not only drives academic success but also fosters a sense of accomplishment and self-worth.

As a tutor, my satisfaction comes from seeing my students excel and reach their full potential. My ultimate goal is to empower students with the knowledge and skills they need to succeed in Science and Maths. I am always available to support my students, offering additional help and resources as needed to ensure their success.

I foster an open environment where students feel comfortable asking questions, no matter how simple they may seem. This curiosity drives deeper understanding and encourages a proactive approach to learning. By incorporating games, puzzles, and interesting activities, I ensure that learning remains fun and engaging, keeping students excited about the subjects.

Join my Foundation Course in Science and Maths and watch your child develop a strong foundation, confidence, and a genuine love for these essential subjects. Let’s work together to achieve academic excellence and make learning a fun and rewarding experience. “Excel in Subjects, Soar in Confidence!”
