Academic support in mathematics, physics, mechanics

From 29 € /h

A graduate engineer from INSA Lyon, I offer courses in mathematics, physics, and mechanics tailored to the level and needs of each student. My approach is based on a deep understanding of concepts rather than simple memorization, in order to give students the right reflexes for scientific reasoning.

I can help with:

Effectively prepare for tests, exams or competitive exams (brevet, bac, prep school, engineering school)

Consolidate theoretical bases and practical applications

Acquire a clear and structured resolution methodology

I make sure to help the student progress at their own pace, without overloading them, while maintaining a steady dynamic. Targeted exercises are offered after each session, and progress reviews are conducted regularly to monitor progress.

I offer support, refresher and advanced courses in mathematics.
I adapt to everyone.
I have a dynamic and pedagogical approach.
My lessons can take place at your home or via a camera that films my writings, as well as a computer camera for videoconferencing. Thus, you can improve your level in mathematics wherever you are, without any geographical constraint, in a fun and effective way.

Acquiring methods, organizing knowledge and reasoning to solve exercises, using memorization techniques are often the important points to develop to enable the student to be independent and achieve their goals.

I am rather open and relaxed, while being precise and rigorous.

I am a secondary school teacher (retraining in 2021) after having been a chemical and textile engineer, and a former student of a preparatory class for the grandes écoles (higher and special maths).

For 12 years, I have been giving individual lessons to students of all levels, and more specifically to students preparing for the French scientific baccalaureate, the international baccalaureate or in cycle.

I am resident of Founex and I work as a PhD researcher in Astrophysics at the Geneva Observatory in Versoix. I have 2 years of teaching experience in Physics and Mathematics at the University of Leeds, UK along with 1 year of private tutoring in Chemistry.

To get a firm grasp on a difficult topic, I believe it is essential to start with the basics and then to work towards the core of the problem. A curriculum focused on independent thinking and steady practise will be taught to the student. Whether the goal is to prepare for an exam or homework; lessons will be altered to match the individual's needs. Mock Test/Exams will be conducted at regular intervals.

I hope to share my excitement and passion for natural sciences and mathematics with the students in an open and 'there is no such thing as a difficult problem' way!

I am available to teach students at my home in Founex or travel to location a few kilometers around Founex or Coppet. I am also available to teach via zoom or skype.

Methodology for solving scientific problems
An effective working method

Each session is tailored to your program and objectives.

We work from your course materials, tutorials, past papers or exam questions to identify the points of difficulty and acquire a solid problem-solving method.

I place particular emphasis on understanding physical concepts, scientific reasoning and writing quality, essential skills for success in scientific fields.

Course structure

The sessions take place entirely online with an interactive digital whiteboard and screen sharing.

Demonstrations, calculations, and exercises are carried out together in real time in order to immediately check understanding and correct reasoning errors.

Available formats

60-minute session

I offer math, physics, and chemistry tutoring tailored to all school levels (primary, secondary, and early university). As a student at EPFL, I have a strong command of these subjects and a good understanding of academic expectations.

My goal is to help the student truly understand the concepts, not just memorize them. I explain them simply and progressively, with concrete examples, and then we work on targeted exercises to consolidate what they've learned.

I adapt to each student's level and pace, whether it's for regular support, exam preparation, or occasional help. The goal is to build confidence and independence, and to achieve lasting improvement in results.

With a bachelor's degree in biomedical sciences and currently a Master's student at the University of Geneva (UNIGE), I offer private lessons and academic support in mathematics and science for primary, secondary and undergraduate students in Geneva.

I can support your child with occasional homework help, reviewing a poorly understood subject, preparing for a quiz or exam, filling in gaps in knowledge, or setting up regular follow-up throughout the school year.

I place great importance on adapting to each student. Everyone has their own pace and learning style, so I take the time to identify any difficulties they encounter and adjust my explanations and approach accordingly. My goal is to make concepts more accessible while helping each child develop their own methodology—tools that will be useful throughout their learning journey.

Lessons can be given in French, my native language, or in English, which I speak at a C1+ level as certified by the TOEFL. I am available for one-off lessons or regular tutoring, depending on the student's needs and goals.

Videoconference preparation for the Swiss supplementary examination (ECUS) and first-year mathematics at EPFL.

The ECUS is not a school exam. It's an entrance exam, with a specific syllabus, a set format, and a time constraint that eliminates perfectly competent candidates. Preparation, therefore, doesn't consist of reviewing course material, but of rebuilding a foundation and practicing in the actual exam format.

Master's degree in Operations Research (applied mathematics), more than five years of private tutoring, including mentoring foreign students preparing for their entry into the Swiss system.

What I cover

ECUS — comprehensive mathematics program, practice with sample exams, time management
EPFL's Special Mathematics Course (CMS)
Refresher courses before the first year of university or college: analysis, linear algebra, probability
Refresher courses for candidates who have been out of the school system for several years

Method

An initial assessment is conducted to determine the student's actual level in relation to the exam requirements, followed by a detailed study plan: number of hours needed, priority chapters, and a timeline leading up to the exam date. Each session combines targeted review of theoretical material with practice exercises in the exam format.

I work with candidates who are starting from scratch as well as with students who want to secure their first year.
