Passionate science watchmaker offers tutoring classes for primary school students or the orientation cycle. The goal is to reassure the student of his abilities and to show him that sometimes it is enough to have an explanation different from that given by his master, to understand a statement. No matter how much time it takes for him to learn, what matters is that he succeeds. I'm here to provide him with extra support and tools to make sure the student is comfortable.

About Me
I have a watchmaking diploma. I am an independent watchmaker and, having a taste for training, I dedicate a few hours a week to help students in difficulty, particularly in science.

I could sell you this or that teaching method that I was able to use during my classes, but the reality is that each individual is different. Each person has their own subjectivity, learning method and my role is to find which one is best suited to the student.

As a teacher to other students, some of whom have learning disabilities, I know what impact school difficulties can have on the student's morale. It is important to put him in trust, show him that his problems are not insurmountable and that he has the capacity to do so. No matter how long it takes, what matters is that the student achieves his goal.
Education
I have a degree in watchmaking, obtained at the watchmaking school of Geneva. You must know that this job requires a lot of mathematics and other sciences.
Experience / Qualifications
Elder of a sibling of 5 children, I usually help my brothers and sisters in their classes. For the last few years, I have been giving tutoring classes in mathematics, physics and bio to students of all ages.

I am a physicist and PhD researcher at the University of Geneva, with several years of experience teaching physics at university level and providing private tutoring in physics, mathematics and chemistry.

My academic background includes degrees in Physics and Solid-State Physics, as well as a background in Industrial Chemistry. This allows me to teach science subjects from secondary-school level up to university courses, while adapting the level of explanation to each student.

I can help with:

* Physics: mechanics, electricity and magnetism, waves, optics, thermodynamics, modern physics and introductory quantum physics
* Mathematics: algebra, functions, calculus, trigonometry, vectors and problem solving
* Chemistry: general chemistry, physical chemistry and introductory university chemistry
* IB, Maturity and international-school programmes
* University physics and mathematics courses
* Exam and mock-exam preparation
* Revision of previous-year material
* Homework, exercises and problem-solving techniques

My approach is based on understanding rather than memorization. I first identify where the difficulty comes from, then rebuild the relevant concepts step by step before applying them to exercises and exam-style problems.

Because I also teach university students, I place particular emphasis on developing a clear method: how to interpret a problem, identify the relevant physical principles, organize a calculation and check whether the final result makes sense.

Lessons can be adapted either for students who are struggling and need to rebuild their foundations, or for stronger students preparing for demanding exams and advanced courses.

I teach in English, French and Italian.

Online lessons and in-person lessons in the Geneva area are available.

• Teaching methodology and techniques: I favour a personalized approach, adapting the courses according to the profile and academic background of each student.
• Typical course structure: tutoring in economics, econometrics, statistics and probability, financial mathematics, trading, investment, or political economy. Courses can take place at home, via videoconference, or at a pre-selected location, ideally quiet, free, and conducive to learning.
• Specifics as a teacher: I offer support throughout the school year, with free corrections of exercises outside of class, regular availability, and the guarantee of being accessible until the end of the year, subject to the general conditions of Superprof.
• Target audience: all levels, regardless of diploma, class or specific characteristics.
-------
The path and the method are in there; take a little bit of each.

Holding a degree in mathematics from EPFL, I offer private lessons in Geneva or online.

I graduated from EPFL with a degree in mathematics, having completed all the Bachelor's level courses in this discipline. I have gained significant experience tutoring students from middle school to university level (mathematics and physics). I have also assisted with teaching at EPFL, particularly in specialized courses such as analytic geometry (advanced mathematics course), analysis (first and second year Bachelor's level), and linear algebra (first year Bachelor's level). My in-depth mastery of the theory in these disciplines provides me with the skills and teaching abilities necessary to effectively support high school and university students, helping them understand the theoretical concepts in their courses and apply them practically in their exercises.

Typical course: a quick review (adapted to needs) of the essential concepts of the course, followed by practical exercises and oral role-playing (going to the board, discussion on the physical meaning, etc.), as in a competitive oral exam.

All my lessons are prepared in advance based on the topics covered in class (the student specifies their needs from one session to the next). I also create a handout containing sample exercises illustrating different methods, fully corrected and explained by me.

My commitment to my students' success is absolute. I only prioritize motivated students who are ready to put in the necessary effort to progress.

My main focus is on in-depth understanding and the quality of work. Depending on the student's request, I can also suggest exercises to do between sessions (not mandatory, depending on available time and homework already assigned by their school).
