Maths, physics courses and preparation for the civil engineering entrance exam.

From 25 € /h

This course is aimed at secondary school students as well as students who wish to prepare for an entrance exam to higher education.

It offers a complete refresher course in mathematics and physics, with clear explanations, targeted exercises and an effective working method to progress step by step.

The goal is to strengthen the foundations, fill in the gaps and develop the right reflexes to succeed in both secondary school exams and university entrance exams.

About Me

I'm in my first year of a bachelor's in civil engineering at UCL in Louvain-la-Neuve. Honestly, I love how mathematics and physics bring real-world structures to life – that's what drew me to teaching. I struggled early on with abstract concepts myself, so now I'm passionate about breaking them down clearly, without unnecessary jargon.

I pride myself on being patient and attentive, quickly identifying where a student is stuck and adapting my approach until true understanding clicks. Rather than surface-level explanations or rote memorization, we explore the underlying principles using practical examples from everyday life and targeted exercises. For instance, I once helped a friend in preparatory class overcome his block with derivatives; after just two sessions, he remarked, "It's actually logical now!"

I particularly enjoy working with motivated first-year engineering or science students who aim not just to pass exams, but to build lasting confidence and effective study habits. Available in Brussels or Louvain-la-Neuve, I'm flexible with locations, schedules, and rates to suit your needs – simply let me know your preferences, and we'll make it work. Contact me; together, we'll transform math from stressful to approachable.

Do you have problems in mathematics, physics or chemistry?
Mathematics, physics, chemistry and science in general are often a mystery to you or to members of your family?
Do you know people who are having difficulty?
I have the solution !

As an industrial engineer, I have been teaching these subjects since 2008:

- Preparation for the CEB.
- Preparation for CE1D.
- Preparation for the CESS/Baccalaureate (European French).
- Preparation for central jury exams.
- Preparation for entrance exams in engineering/medical schools.
- Preparation for EPSO/SELOR tests (numerical/abstract).
- University level: mathematics, mineral chemistry, physics, mechanics, resistance of materials, electricity, electronics (analogue/digital/industrial).
- Private or group lessons, I adapt to all situations.

Classes can be given in English!

I remain at your disposal for any questions.

As an electromechanical engineer and Data Scientist, I'm here to lend a hand and share tips and tricks with young people who face challenges in math and science. My goal is to make the material more enjoyable and accessible and to help you feel more comfortable with it. We will explore the content together with enthusiasm and a smile.

My lessons are aimed at students in primary school, secondary school, and university (depending on the program and course). I was fortunate to have a very broad background in the exact sciences thanks to my civil engineering studies. My lessons can therefore cover chemistry (kinetics, equilibria, mass balances, etc.), mathematics (analysis, algebra, geometry, trigonometry, statistics, probability, differential equations, etc.), and physics (electricity, mechanics, thermodynamics, etc.). Before starting private lessons, I usually ask for a description of the student's current course so that I can best prepare the sessions.

My studies also instilled in me a problem-based learning approach. My teaching method is therefore primarily practice-oriented, as the most important thing in the exact sciences is being able to solve any type of problem. And to do that, you have to do as many as possible. During my studies, I realized that the best way to understand a subject is by doing exercises on it. However, you still need to have some foundational knowledge. That's why I usually start with a brief review of the subject and provide a formula sheet with the important formulas. Then, I work through one or more typical exercises with the student, explaining the steps involved. Finally, the student will do exercises on their own, using the formula sheet (using formulas is the best way to remember them). I'm there to assess their understanding, answer their questions, and help them when needed.

The classes I offer are for students in grades 1 through 6 of high school. I graduated from Sint-Jan Berchmans College in science/mathematics, and I've just finished my master's degree in energy from UCL as a civil engineer, so I've put in a lot of hours of math and science. I'm also a scout leader, hockey coach, and kitesurfing instructor! So, I'm very good with students this age and have extensive experience in pedagogy. Hope to see you soon!

Math teacher gives private lessons in math-statistics and probability.

My teaching has already proven itself with several students that I have already followed and that I continue to follow. It consists of short-term help in overcoming the difficulties of a project or of certain chapters, just as it also consists of continuous monitoring to give students the means to play a role in their successes. The main goal is not to learn selfishly, but to teach the student how to manage his time and his way of working: these points are very important for success in these studies continuously.
my course is for students:

> Secondary: I offer a lesson to the students + the exercises
> Central jury: I offer a course to students, work on exams from previous years
> Entrance exam of medicine and polytechnic .: I offer a course support to students, cards, summaries, qcm.
> Higher education students: statistics and probability: descriptive statistics, probability, inferential statistics (binomial, normal, Poisson, sampling-estimation, confidence intervals, statistical tests (hypotheses) chi-square test, Anova.etc).

An experienced teacher, I tailor my course on the specific needs of my students, so they can reach the desired level in math/physics/chemistry as quickly as possible. My approach is practical, and goal-oriented (examination, certificate, etc.).

I give courses to high-school and bachelor level students. I speak French, English, and Dutch.

About :
An engineer by background ("ingénieur civil"), I have become an education professional with a significant experience teaching math, physics and chemistry both in the classroom (lycée Mater Dei, Woluwé-Saint-Pierre), and outside the classroom.

I resolve issues that students have for instance because of pre-existing learning gaps, or difficulties to understand the complex aspects of scientific courses in the classroom.

This private math tutoring aims to help students overcome their difficulties, learn effective study methods, review missing fundamental concepts, and regain their confidence. I adapt my approach to the student's teacher's curriculum to ensure they can best follow the rest of the year.

I offer personalized tutoring in Mathematics, Physics, Chemistry, and Materials Science, fully adapted to your level.

I break down complex topics into simple, logical steps, build and make sure each concept is fully understood before moving on.

Even if these subjects feel far from you at first, just like they once did for me, you can always learn to master them. I will guide you step by step, using intuitive and visual explanations to help you develop deep understanding and lasting confidence.

My aim is to help you not only succeed, but also enjoy learning!

Mathematics course:

My teaching method begins with a general review of the student's level, their difficulties, and their strengths, based on past exams and completed exercises. Secondly, we review the fundamental theory together, along with some targeted exercises, to lay the foundation upon which the student can build their knowledge and ensure no gaps are left unaddressed. Once the foundation is solid, we can easily catch up on the course material and make up for lost time. This is how the students I am currently coaching in 2026 have gone from an average exam score of 5-7/20 to 14-18/20 in just 3-4 weeks.
