I am a qualified and experienced mathematics tutor. Graduated from the Free University of Brussels in 2011, I started my career by teaching remedial courses in different schools in Brussels. I then specialized in individual academic support by following educational training at the Harvard Graduate School of Education. I have been giving private mathematics lessons daily for over ten years.

The students who follow my private lessons benefit from personalized support. The first session is devoted to an in-depth assessment of the student's mathematical knowledge. The objective is to detect its weak points and understand their origin in order to adapt my courses to its needs. I develop a tailor-made remediation program for each of my students aimed at filling each of their gaps. Over the course of the sessions, the student builds a solid foundation for learning and regains self-confidence. At the same time, I help him acquire a work methodology that allows him to gradually become autonomous in his studies.

I have a thorough knowledge of the mathematics curriculum for middle and high school (from 6th to 12th grade). I am also qualified to support students in preparing for international exams such as the SAT, the OMPT, and the International Baccalaureate (IB) in all its variations: Analysis and Approaches (AA SL/HL) and Applications and Interpretation (AI SL/HL).

Throughout my years of training, I studied and developed numerous techniques that facilitate learning mathematics. The strength of my teaching approach lies in my ability to explain, in simple terms, anything a student finds complicated. I am passionate about this profession because it offers me the opportunity to guide struggling students toward success. It is a true pleasure to see them progress and rediscover their connection with the fascinating world of mathematics.

I offer private tutoring in Paris (at the student's home) or remotely (online). My online lessons take place on an interactive whiteboard. This whiteboard is specifically designed to facilitate student/teacher interaction online. Thanks to this teaching tool, my online lessons are just as effective as in-person lessons. The student only needs an internet connection and a computer, tablet, or smartphone to participate.

Hi! I am a Ph.D. researcher in Physics at the University of Cologne, Germany. Recently, I graduated from the University of Groningen in the Netherlands with a Master's degree in Nanoscience (w/ cum Laude). I offer private tutoring for high school and/or university-level students so they can understand the fundamental concepts and excel in their studies. I have teaching experience of 5+ years in Physics and Mathematics to both high school and university-level students.

I have expertise in the following courses:
0. All high school topics

1. Classical Physics (Newtonian mechanics, linear motion, rotational motion, collision theory, angular momentum, and many more)

2. Modern Physics (Electrostatics, Maxwell's law, motion of electrons in electric and magnetic fields, Quantum theory of light, Compton scattering, photoelectric effect, and many more)

3. Optics (Ray optics, wave mechanics, reflection and refraction, Fresnel's law, polarizer, matrix optics, interference, diffraction, and many more)

4. Quantum Mechanics (Schrödinger equation, Heisenberg uncertainty principle, commutation relation, the addition of angular momentum, matrix representation, density matrix, and many more)

5. Solid-state Physics (Crystal structure, wave diffraction, and the reciprocal lattice, crystal vibrations (phonons), the density of states, semiconductor physics, pn junction, transistors, and many more)

*Note that the sessions will be held online (via Discord/Zoom/Microsoft Teams).

If you're looking for an organised and professional teacher to help you achieve your academic goals, look no further! The IB science subjects can be extremely difficult to go through on your own, and I'll be glad to use my experience to help you out.

A couple of things I like to do:

- Initial test or interview to assess your level.
- Use Notion as a platform to share all my resources.
- Use mock papers that lay out the exercises JUST like in the real exams, so you will feel really prepared.
- I give homework when appropriate.
- I provide any kind of mentoring and college counseling. People who study Biology and Chemistry usually want to pursue a clinical career-- and that is a complex process!

Welcome to my Maths, Physics and Science tutoring class, crafted especially for young minds preparing for IB MYP, IGCSE, and GCSE exams. As a passionate learner and dedicated tutor, I am committed to helping students not only comprehend but also develop a love for these captivating subjects. Here's what you can anticipate from my tutoring sessions

Personalised Learning: Every learner is unique, and I believe in tailoring my teaching methods to suit each student's individual needs. I don't judge; instead, I concentrate on understanding their strengths and areas for improvement to create a supportive and encouraging learning environment.

Concept Breakdown: I dissect complex topics into simpler, more manageable parts, making it easier for students to grasp challenging concepts and build a strong foundation in Physics and Science.

Student-Centred Approach: I enjoy teaching students and continually strive to ignite their curiosity and passion for learning. I aim to make each lesson engaging and enjoyable, helping students recognise the real-world applications of what they learn.

Shared Strategies: As a student who has successfully qualified for the Engineering Entrance exam test and is currently studying abroad on a fully funded scholarship, I bring my own learning strategies and study techniques to the table. These proven methods will help students achieve their academic goals.

Continuous Improvement: I am always learning and growing, just like my students. This continuous improvement mindset, which I actively promote, inspires and motivates students to strive for their best. It enables me to stay updated with the latest educational trends and techniques, ensuring that my students receive the best possible guidance.

Supportive Environment: I encourage students to ask questions, no matter how trivial they might seem. By creating a friendly and comfortable atmosphere, I ensure that students feel comfortable and open to express their doubts and curiosities, leading to a deeper understanding of the subjects.

Building genuine understanding is at the heart of everything I do. This class is designed for students who want to not only pass their exams but truly grasp the subject from the ground up. Using a combination of inquiry-based learning, visual demonstration, and explicit instruction, I guide each student through the Cambridge curriculum at a pace that suits them. We start by mastering the foundations and gradually work our way up. Whether you're struggling to keep up or looking to push ahead, my lessons are fully tailored to your individual learning style and needs.

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.
