Mathematics and Physics tutoring | For students in middle school, high school and Bachelor's

Von 42.29 $ /Std

Have you been staring at the equations that the teachers write as if you were looking at hieroglyphs on the wall? Do you feel stuck when you are confronted by your exercises, not a single idea coming to mind? My name is Bastien, I studied Physics for my Bachelor's at EPFL and a Master's in Quantum Engineering at ETH. During my studies, I was a Teaching Assistant for classes in Electromagnetism, Fluid Dynamics, Analysis, and Special Relativity. I also gave private lessons to students in need before their exams. Through these experiences, I discovered that no matter your level we all tend to get stuck in front of math equations at one point or another. We get lost in the details and seem to be unable to see the big picture, to understand where all of this is going, and why any of it is useful at all.

In these classes, I want to help you deal with these issues. It doesn't matter if you are in middle school, high school, or starting your Bachelor's. The goal of these classes is to help you cultivate the skills needed not only to improve your grades but also to be a better problem solver. I will help you develop your passion and curiosity for mathematics. The passion that you maybe never knew you had! We will look at mathematics not as a monolithic entity but as a language. Ultimately, mathematical excellence can be decomposed into four primary skills: memory, patience, curiosity, and creativity. During this class, we will:

🟢 Assess in which areas you are struggling

🟢 Come up with a plan tailored to your needs

🟢 Fill in the gaps in your understanding

🟢 Stay up to date with the content of your classes

Mathematics in the end is not about the mathematics themselves. It is about the problems they allow us to solve and the language they give us to confront them.

Über mich

I am a recent ETH Quantum Engineering graduate. Growing up in Chile, then going to EPFL for my bachelor’s degree and now living in Zürich I’ve come across very different people from very different cultures. However, all the impressive people that I’ve met during my studies share one thing: curiosity drives them. In my classes I strive to share this with my students: the passion to learn, to ask questions and to always wonder about the world around us. While I love physics and math and absolutely love to have discussions about these ideas what truly moves me is to see that spark of enthusiasm igniting in a student’s eyes after they understand a concept.

But for a strong plant to grow it needs strong roots. When I give classes, the student is the priority: his current level, way of thinking and goals will all shape how the class is arranged. With me, the student gets to develop their own way of thinking about the problems while they build a stronger understanding of the content they are currently seeing at school. Patience and regularity are key for this: for curiosity and understanding to appear, they need space to grow. As such, the student needs to feel comfortable and feel like any question is a valid one to have.
