PhD physicist and nuclear engineer with over 10 years of research experience at CERN and CNRS, offering tailored private lessons in physics and applied mathematics for university students and motivated high school students preparing for higher education.
I specialise in helping students build genuine understanding of the principles behind complex problems, not just memorise formulas for exams. My teaching adapts to your level, your pace, and your specific goals.
Topics I can cover include classical mechanics, thermodynamics, fluid mechanics, electromagnetism, quantum physics, nuclear physics, radiation physics, applied mathematics, differential equations, linear algebra, probability and statistics, and numerical methods.
I have a PhD in nuclear engineering from Université Grenoble Alpes, an MSc in nuclear plant design from Université Paris-Saclay, and a BSc in nuclear engineering. I have worked as a research fellow at CERN and as a doctoral researcher at CNRS, and I have supervised students and interns throughout my career.
Lessons are available online via video call or in person in Geneva. I am flexible on scheduling and happy to discuss your specific needs before we start.
Extra information
Please bring your course materials, lecture notes, and any past exam papers or problem sets you would like to work through. If you have a specific topic or concept you are struggling with, let me know in advance so I can prepare accordingly. A laptop is useful but not required.

About Me
I know what it feels like to sit in a lecture and feel completely lost. I also know the moment when something suddenly clicks and everything makes sense. That transition, from confusion to clarity, is what I find most rewarding about teaching. My goal is not to give you the answer but to help you understand the problem so deeply that you could find the answer yourself.
I believe good teaching starts with listening. Every student learns differently and struggles with different things. I take time to understand where you are before deciding where to go. Whether you are preparing for an exam, catching up on missed material, or simply trying to understand something your professor explained too fast, I will meet you where you are.
Physics and mathematics can feel abstract and intimidating. But they also describe everything around us, from the movement of water to the behaviour of atoms. I enjoy making that connection visible and showing students that these subjects are not just about passing exams but about understanding how the world actually works.
I am a nuclear engineer and research scientist with a PhD and over 10 years of experience working at institutions including CERN in Geneva and CNRS in France. I have supervised and mentored students throughout my career and I bring that same patience and rigour to private tutoring.
I am based in Geneva, fluent in English, French, and Arabic, and available for online sessions or in person meetings. I look forward to working with you.
Education
PhD in Nuclear Engineering, Université Grenoble Alpes, France (2026)

Experience / Qualifications
I have over 10 years of experience as a nuclear engineer and research scientist, working at CERN in Geneva and CNRS in France, among other international organisations. Throughout my career I have regularly supervised and mentored students and interns, explaining complex physics and mathematical concepts to people at different levels of understanding.
I hold a PhD in nuclear engineering and have spent years working with advanced simulation methods, applied mathematics, and scientific computing. I am comfortable teaching from high school level all the way through to university and graduate level.
I teach in English, French, and Arabic.

Description:

I am a graduate of the École Supmeca Paris and major of the preparatory classes of the School of Air Pupilles (high school of the Air Force), MPSI - MP.
I obtained my Master Affiliation Science and technology of energy within the Ecole Polytechnique de Lausanne.

On the other hand, I was a researcher at the University of Arizona on NASA projects.

Finally, I have been practicing for over 6 years now as a private tutor at home. I have a long experience of teaching in secondary and higher education.
Passionate about teaching and scientific subjects, I have a very good knowledge of the programs dispensed in higher education. My students have always been very satisfied with the progress made; the results are always there, combined with personal work, even for pupils in great difficulty.


Metholdology:

My pedagogy is based on the following main principles:
- Start from intuition and transmit through pictorial notions / examples of everyday life
- Then translate this teaching into the rigorous scientific approach.
- Understand the student's way of thinking, and adapt. Teaching is anything but listing the concepts similarly to each student.

The courses are aimed in particular at students in search of excellence who wish to prepare for a competition / exam. For this particular profile, the lines of work will revolve around rigor, time management, and the methodology of scientific reasoning, in order to gain the few points that will make the difference.

Do not hesitate to contact me to discuss the type of support you would like. Depending on the difficulties encountered by the student, it may be preferable to focus on the methodology, help with homework, the course, the exercises ... The courses are of course adapted according to these needs.

Je suis étudiant en deuxième année de Génie mécanique à l’EPFL, où je travaille également comme assistant-étudiant. J’accompagne des étudiants de première année dans leurs séries d’exercices et leur préparation aux examens, notamment en mathématiques, physique et informatique. J’ai obtenu ma maturité gymnasiale en 2025 avec une moyenne de 5,5 et ai également suivi le Cours Euler, destiné aux élèves à haut potentiel en mathématiques. J’ai acquis une solide expérience pédagogique grâce aux tutorats que je réalise ainsi qu’aux cours de niveau universitaire que j’ai eu l’occasion de donner dans le cadre des semaines officielles de préparation aux examens de l’EPFL.

Je propose uniquement des cours en présentiel, généralement de manière hebdomadaire ou davantage selon les besoins de l’élève. Je peux me déplacer à son domicile ou donner cours dans une bibliothèque publique ou un espace d’étude. Le présentiel me permet d’assurer un véritable suivi personnalisé et d’adapter chaque séance aux difficultés et aux objectifs de l’élève.

Je suis à l’écoute, patient et interactif. Grâce à mon jeune âge, je parviens généralement à créer facilement un lien avec les élèves et à comprendre leurs difficultés. Je prépare systématiquement mes cours à l’avance afin de proposer des séances structurées, efficaces et adaptées à leurs besoins. Il est donc important que l’élève m’envoie ses cours, exercices ou devoirs au préalable. Je sais également être exigeant lorsque cela est nécessaire afin de maintenir un rythme de travail régulier et de favoriser une progression durable.

Mon tarif comprend la préparation du cours, le déplacement ainsi qu’un suivi par message en dehors des séances. Je peux également concevoir des exercices supplémentaires personnalisés en fonction des besoins de l’élève, au tarif de 20 CHF par heure de préparation nécessaire.

Je suis bilingue français/anglais et peux donner les cours dans les deux langues.
