    Private lessons in Mathematics from a true mathematician

    To jump straight to the point, I love mathematics. But, it didn't always come easy to me.

    In third grade we were tested on the multiplication table and I received the lowest grade in my class. I still remember the shame I felt and I was asking myself how will I ever be good at this subject if I was already doing so poorly. Well, I am a walking example of it doesn't matter how you start, it only matters how you finish.

    I am now a doctor in Mathematics (obtained my PhD from EPFL in 2022) with over five years of teaching experience ranging from primary school pupils to university students. My secret? I taught myself how to learn.

    When people talk about mathematics they portray it as a mystical creature that is incomprehensible and untameable. In actuality, it is more like legos. With each bit of new knowledge you gain, you get to build these magnificent worlds of concepts, theorems and operations.

    I would love to build some lego structures with you. I am very passionate about my work and I have the patience and dedication to help you conquer any challenge you may face.

    As tutoring is such an individualistic practice, it will be tailored to you and your needs. The first lesson will be an introduction to one another and a way for me to familiarise myself with your math knowledge and issues. We will then decide on a tutoring plan and set goals. I am very flexible and my main priority is that you receive the support you need.

    If this sounds good to you, do not hesitate to get in touch.

    P.S.: I currently teach in English but I am actively working on my German competencies.

    Extra information

    I would like access to the material before the start of the lessons in order to familiarise myself with the material and the way it has been introduced and applied.

    About Me

    Simply put, I am a mathematician at heart. The moment I realised that mathematics was nothing to be scared about, but rather a tool one can use to build understanding of the world around us, I feel in love with it.

    My mission is to demystify mathematics and to show everyone that they too can be great at maths. The most common problem I see is that students do not understand how things 'work'. I structure my teaching in a way in which this doesn't occur, by emphasising precision, attention to detail and tailoring the speed and the difficulty to the capabilities of the student.

    Education

    Postdoc in Mathematics at University of Birmingham, December 2022.
    PhD in Mathematics from EPFL, May 2022.
    Masters in Applied Mathematics from Babes-Bolyai University, June 2016.
    Bachelors in Mathematics from University of Bucharest, June 2014.

    Experience / Qualifications

    For four years I worked as a teaching assistant in the Mathematics department at EPFL. My main goal was to insure that students felt supported in their journey of learning mathematics, that all of their questions were answered and that they felt comfortable in their knowledge to undertake any challenge.
    I also offered private tutoring between my master and doctoral studies. During this time I helped high school students prepare for their semestrial examination, as well as for the Bacalaureat exam.

    Math tutoring for high school students
    As a teaching professional, I have always enjoyed sharing my knowledge. My goal is to provide quality education. I am aware that some topics may seem complex, but often this is simply the result of an inadequate explanation by the teacher. With me, you will discover a real interest in the material! We strive together to achieve academic excellence, overcoming the shortcomings and difficulties encountered by your child. Studies will become a pleasant experience for him. In addition to the courses, I can also help with school orientation, identifying their preferences and highlighting the advantages and benefits of a fulfilling educational ambition. The sessions generally take place according to the following stages: 1️⃣ The first sessions are devoted to the assessment of the student's level in order to detect existing gaps. 2️⃣ Next, we create a personalized plan to address these gaps, including the number of hours of work needed, specific areas to focus on, and appropriate training and development exercises. 3️⃣ We stay in constant contact with the student's class teacher, to keep up to date with the latest requirements and ensure a consistent approach. 4️⃣ Subsequently, I provide exams similar to those that are likely to be asked in class, to prepare the student effectively. 5️⃣ Upon request, I write a regular report, usually monthly, to keep parents informed of their child's progress throughout their course. I adapt my methodology according to the specific needs of each student, thus offering them a personalized and adapted work approach. In addition, I offer crash courses for students preparing for the start of the school year, allowing them to start the year well prepared, with a solid lead on the school curriculum. If you have any questions, do not hesitate to contact me. I will be happy to help you.
