Chemistry (IB/A-level/AP & first-year uni) — clear, step-by-step lessons with a Chemistry BSc tutor

From 23 € /h

Chemistry can be challenging if it’s taught as pure memorization — my goal is to change that. With over 5 years of tutoring experience and a BSc in Chemistry from TU/e, I help students understand the “why” and “how” behind chemistry, turning tricky concepts into something logical and even enjoyable.

This class is for high school students (IB SL/HL, A-level, AP) and first-year university students taking General Chemistry. Lessons are in English and are ideal for international students or anyone who prefers studying in English.

We cover all major topics, including stoichiometry and moles, thermodynamics, equilibrium, acids, bases and buffers, kinetics, electrochemistry, atomic structure, bonding, and organic chemistry basics (nomenclature, mechanisms, isomerism).

A typical 60-minute lesson includes: 1) quick check-in and goal-setting, 2) a clear explanation with one core example, 3) guided practice with feedback, 4) an exam-style problem under light time pressure, and 5) recap and micro-homework with an error log to track recurring mistakes.

Lessons are available online (interactive whiteboard, past papers, custom notes) or in-person in Eindhoven.

About Me

I’m Valerian, a Chemistry BSc from TU/e. I help high-school and first-year university students master Chemistry, Calculus/Math, and high-school Physics.

My tutoring is clear and structured: I diagnose where understanding breaks down, rebuild concepts step by step, and coach problem-solving so students become confident and independent. I care about efficiency, calm progress, and real understanding—not rote memorization. Lessons are in English, online worldwide. If you want clarity and steady results, I’d be happy to help.

Outside of teaching I love dancing, debating, and cooking — things that keep me curious, communicative, and creative, qualities I bring to every lesson.

Calculus & Math (HS + first-year uni) — limits, derivatives, integrals, and problem-solving strategies

23 € /h

Math becomes manageable when you see it step by step. I help students build solid foundations and tackle problems with confidence.

For: high-school (algebra, pre-calculus, IB HL math, A-level math) and first-year university Calculus I–II.

We cover functions and graphs, limits and continuity, derivatives and applications (rates, optimization, curve sketching), integrals and applications (area, volume, accumulation), sequences/series, and basic vectors/linear algebra if required.

A typical 60-minute lesson: 1) short diagnostic to spot weak points, 2) concise concept explanation, 3) guided examples → independent practice, 4) exam-style problem under light time pressure, 5) recap and small next-step plan with an error log to track progress.

Available online (interactive whiteboard, problem banks) .

High-School Physics — mechanics, energy, electricity, waves (IB SL / AP 1 / A-level foundations)

19 € /h

Physics gets easier when formulas connect to intuition. I guide students step by step so concepts make sense and problems feel solvable.

For: high-school physics (IB SL, AP Physics 1, A-level foundations) and students preparing for exams or needing a stronger base for university.

We cover kinematics, Newton’s laws, forces and friction, energy and power, momentum and collisions, circular motion, simple harmonic motion and waves, basic electricity and DC circuits.

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 Foundation Course in Science and Maths, specially designed for primary, secondary, and high school students in Amsterdam. This course aims to build a strong foundation in these critical subjects, ensuring students excel academically and develop a genuine love for learning.

My teaching approach is focused on making learning enjoyable and engaging. I incorporate interactive activities and hands-on experiments to bring Science and Maths concepts to life. By involving students in these dynamic learning experiences, I aim to transform abstract concepts into tangible understanding. Each session is thoughtfully designed to keep students interested and motivated, minimizing fatigue and maximizing retention.

I believe in simplifying complex topics, breaking them down into easy-to-understand segments. This approach helps students grasp and retain challenging concepts with ease. Techniques such as mnemonic devices, visual aids, and real-life examples are integral to my method, ensuring that formulas and concepts are not just memorized, but truly understood.

Regular assessments are conducted to track student progress and identify areas needing improvement. These tests also prepare students for their school exams, ultimately boosting their confidence. I understand the importance of keeping parents informed and involved in their child’s academic journey. That's why I provide weekly reports detailing their child’s progress, strengths, and areas for improvement. This continuous feedback loop ensures that parents are aware of their child’s development and can support their learning at home.

Encouraging words and positive feedback are integral to my teaching method. I strive to build students' self-confidence and to instill a love for learning through positive reinforcement. Setting achievable goals for each student, I celebrate their successes and motivate them to strive for excellence. This goal-setting approach not only drives academic success but also fosters a sense of accomplishment and self-worth.

As a tutor, my satisfaction comes from seeing my students excel and reach their full potential. My ultimate goal is to empower students with the knowledge and skills they need to succeed in Science and Maths. I am always available to support my students, offering additional help and resources as needed to ensure their success.

I foster an open environment where students feel comfortable asking questions, no matter how simple they may seem. This curiosity drives deeper understanding and encourages a proactive approach to learning. By incorporating games, puzzles, and interesting activities, I ensure that learning remains fun and engaging, keeping students excited about the subjects.

Join my Foundation Course in Science and Maths and watch your child develop a strong foundation, confidence, and a genuine love for these essential subjects. Let’s work together to achieve academic excellence and make learning a fun and rewarding experience. “Excel in Subjects, Soar in Confidence!”
