Classes of mathematics, physics, and chemistry in English or Spanish. In person (Leuven) or remotely.

From 25 € /h

I’m Onix, a science tutor living in Leuven studying a Master's in Nanoscience and Nanotechnology. I hold degrees in Environmental Chemistry and Chemical Engineering. Over the past years I’ve tutored students in math, chemistry, and physics—from middle school to university level—always focusing on making complex topics clear and approachable.

My lessons are practical, engaging, and adapted to your learning style. Whether you’re preparing for exams, catching up on difficult concepts, or aiming to strengthen your problem-solving skills, I’ll guide you step by step with patience and clarity. I believe learning science should feel less like memorizing and more like discovering how the world works!

Classes can be held online or in person in Leuven. I provide personalized explanations, practice problems, and tips to build both knowledge and confidence :)

About Me

I am a curious and hardworking person who enjoys meaningful conversations and learning from others. I am currently doing a master's in nanoscience and have a background in environmental chemistry and chemical engineering. I see math, chemistry, and physics as powerful tools to understand the world. My teaching philosophy is simple: adapt to each student’s style, build confidence, and spark curiosity!

Education

Master of Science in Nanoscience, Nanotechnology, and Nanoengineering (KU Leuven)
Bachelor of Science in Chemical Engineering (Washington University, in St. Louis)
Bachelor of Science in Environmental Chemistry (Beloit College)

Experience / Qualifications

During my academic career, I served as a teaching assistant for introductory chemistry and organic chemistry courses, where I found joy in adapting complex topics to each student’s skill set. This passion led me to various mentoring roles, including serving as an advisor for first- and second-year university students as a Head Resident Advisor at Beloit College and a Residential College Fellow at Washington University. Additionally, I taught secondary mathematics to Latin American immigrants as a GED tutor at Beloit Public Library and coached basketball for children ages 8–14 as a summer basketball coach. Few things are more rewarding than witnessing someone’s progress and excitement for learning.

- What do the lessons entail?
The tutoring focuses on mathematics in secondary education. I help students understand both the theory and its practical application in exercises. If necessary, I provide additional study materials, such as diagrams, summaries, or resources, to clarify the material.

- My approach
I would appreciate receiving an overview of the study material, tests, or assignments in advance that present difficulties. This allows me to properly prepare the lessons and focus on the student's specific needs. This also allows me to better assess the level.

During tutoring, I try to explain the material in a simple and understandable way, often from a different perspective than in the classroom. My goal is for the student to truly understand the material and gain more confidence. Seeing progress and achieving results together gives me great satisfaction.

- Why do I tutor?
Mathematics has always been a great passion of mine. Although my current studies no longer revolve around it, I still enjoy pursuing it. Tutoring is therefore an ideal combination of hobby and extra income for me. Naturally, I always work in a professional and structured manner.

- Experience
Since 2018, I've been tutoring students of various ages, both in primary and secondary education. I also regularly help fellow students with their learning material, which is always a positive experience.

- Who am I?
My name is Arina, I'm 26 years old and I study law. I live and study in Leuven, where I also live in student housing.

I'm an approachable, enthusiastic, and open person. This helps me quickly build trust, so students feel comfortable and confident asking questions. They know they can contact me outside of tutoring sessions if they get stuck on an exercise, and they often continue to do so afterward.

During my own high school years, I struggled with math in my first and second grades. Although I found the subject interesting, I struggled to fully grasp the material because the explanations didn't align with my learning style.

When I started tutoring (at my parents' insistence), my perspective on mathematics completely changed. My interest grew so strongly that I later pursued a degree in economics and mathematics. My love for mathematics has remained ever since.

Because math wasn't a part of my further studies, I decided to tutor myself. This way, I can share my enthusiasm and help students develop the confidence I once had to build.

As a student in a Master's degree in Mathematics, I offer help in the deep understanding of various subjects. I believe that intuition is the most important tool in mathematics and its development deserves our full attention. Whether it's in the math fundamentals we face in high school or the abstract tools we encounter in university, it's always possible to find that magical moment where everything seems so obvious. It is the so called "stupid questions" that are the most important.

I believe that knowledge is built from basics and deep understanding of concepts with practicality.
Any concept learnt with practical application is more important than theoretical knowledge and worth in the long term. With this in mind you can expect me to deliver information in a simple and effective manner for better understanding.

I specialize in teaching chemistry, biology for school as well as preparation for IB, SAT, GCSE and GMAT exams. I believe each student is unique and my role as a teacher is to provide the student-specific environment for each learner to attain full potential. I employ a combination of guided instruction and problem-based teaching methods to help students understand otherwise abstract concepts. I assign homework after each class and provide feedback on class assignments.

With 4 years of experience teaching mathematics to students from 1st to 12th grade, I specialize in making math not only understandable, but genuinely enjoyable. I understand that one of the most common questions students ask is, “How will this help me in real life?” — and I’ve built my teaching approach around answering that.

Through practical examples, interactive methods, and real-life applications, I help students see the relevance of math in their daily lives. Whether your child needs help building a strong foundation or tackling advanced topics, I offer personalised guidance that meets them at their level and helps them grow.

Let’s make math make sense — and maybe even fun!

I offer my sessions both in English and Turkish.

For complex problems you need mathematics, statistics and computer skills to be able to manage it. Once you can describe a problem in terms of numbers then the solution will follow naturally. Get in touch and I will use real life problems to teach you mathematics, statistics and computer science in a very easy way. These subjects are only difficult if the teacher murders it.

Classes are in English or Spanish.

I offer tutoring in chemistry, physics and mathematics to highschool students. As a person used to studying, doing exercises and not being the best in my class, I know that hard work is the path to do well in class. I firmly believe anyone can pass any exam, no matter how hard it is the course. With the appropriate attitude and mindset, no exercise is too complicated. Its just a matter of patience and perseverance.
I am patient and I will taggle the students most challenging topics, as well as being flexible to their proposals.

If you are interested, please send me a message and I will explain more details.

Good luck with your studies!!!

Math is a difficult subject that usually builds upon previous years and gets harder. It’s important that kids grasp the basics well first. As a person who used to struggle, i would love to help and get kids comfortable with the basics of maths.
