Mathematics: Depending on your level and needs, we can review the fundamentals (calculations, fractions, equations), and delve deeper into more advanced concepts such as analysis (derivatives, integrals, sequences) or linear algebra (matrices, vector spaces). The goal is to progress effectively, whether to consolidate knowledge or prepare for exams. Physics: From school level to higher education, I can support you in the different branches of physics taught in class: mechanics, electricity, thermodynamics, optics, waves, etc. Specially skilled in mechanics, I can also delve deeper into this subject for students who need it. Courses are adapted to each student according to their level and objectives. Whether for regular monitoring, exam preparation, or one-off support, I adapt to your pace. Courses available online or in person on the EPFL campus if possible.

Passionate & empathetic teacher. I have a Master's in Physics with honors from the University of Leicester (which was featured at the time as a top 5 Physics university in the UK by The Guardian) and a - french - European School diploma in which I achieved 90% in Physics and 85% in Maths.

Helping others understand difficult topics and skills is something that I am very passionate about as an empathetic person. I have experience teaching Physics and Maths to kids from unprivileged backgrounds at the homework school in Saint-Gilles (CASG du Service Social Juif asbl) as well as 5 years of private teaching.

In my classes, I aim to:

- help students achieve better grades in exams/tests in all branches of Physics & Maths
- clearly explain and break down topics
- give context and or example applications of topics (to improve understanding and memorization)
- help with ADHD & other learning disabilities
- give practical advice for university applications (eg. UCAS in the UK) and discuss the exciting Physics research/work and projects you can work on later in life.

Physics has a plethora of useful and fascinating applications, from the detection of Gravitational Waves and Gamma-Ray Bursts to the development of novel Medical Imaging techniques and Nano-technology (eg: smartphones). It is a subject that I am very passionate about and I hope to make use of my years of experience and extensive knowledge to help you understand and love the subject! My lessons will always be tailored to the individual needs of the student, so please do not hesitate to contact me if you have questions!

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!”

This course helps you truly understand physics in a structured and logical way. Whether you are working on mechanics, electricity, waves, or thermodynamics, lessons are tailored to your level and goals.

We focus on building strong conceptual understanding first, then applying that knowledge to exercises and exam-style problems. Instead of memorizing formulas, you will learn how to derive and use them confidently.

Lessons are interactive and taught using a digital whiteboard, where we work through theory and calculations step by step. The goal is deeper understanding, improved problem-solving skills, and lasting confidence in physics.

Hi I'm a college student, I have advanced knowledge in subjects like, algebra, calculous, math in general, physics, and some statistics. Also, I'm a native Spanish speaker, so I can also help you with grammar, pronunciation. My main goal is to help you understand the topics that you struggle with, because in my experience, sometimes what you need is a different approach of how things are done rather than it being too difficult.

IB Physics is one of the most technically demanding subjects at Diploma level. Success requires more than conceptual understanding — it requires structured exam execution.

This programme is designed for students aiming to move up grade boundaries through disciplined, examiner-aligned preparation.

Each student follows a structured performance cycle:

• Diagnostic assessment of current level
• Concept consolidation with precision
• Command term interpretation training
• Markscheme alignment and structured answer writing
• Timed past-paper simulation
• Error pattern analysis and refinement

Many capable students lose marks due to poor structure, misinterpreted command terms, or lack of exposure to examiner-style questions. These gaps are addressed directly.

Over the past year, students have improved by two to three grade boundaries within eight to ten weeks through targeted intervention and consistent practice.

Sessions are delivered online in a professional, interactive format and are suited to students preparing for mocks, final exams, or IA refinement.

Designed for serious students aiming for 6s and 7s.
