Understand, succeed, thrive: academic support in math and physics

30 Fr /h

I offer private lessons and academic support in mathematics and physics for middle and high school students.
My approach is clear, progressive and personalized: I adapt to each student's pace, I rephrase concepts until they are perfectly understood and I use concrete methods to facilitate learning.
As a student at EPFL, I am close to students and understand their difficulties, which allows me to guide them effectively and help them gain confidence and independence. Whether it's preparing for an exam, improving academic performance, or gaining a deeper understanding of a subject, I offer dedicated and motivating support.

Holder of a Master's degree in Letters and endowed with a solid experience in private lessons, I provide French lessons for students wishing to:
- consolidate their bases in grammar, spelling
- improve their language skills (allophone students)
- improve their speaking skills (conversation classes)
-profect the written expression
- prepare for ECR exams
- prepare for the written examinations at the end of the studies (maturity, certificate of completion)
- help with the writing of works of maturity (or other works of end of studies), of dissertation
- work on argumentative texts
- acquire a method to analyze literary texts
- learn how to perform bibliographic research

The course material is a Google Docs document that I create in which my explanations, possible links, exercises appear. By reading it regularly, progress will be faster. It can also be used in addition to other documents (files printed by school teachers and/or books) and has many advantages: automatic updating, downloadable on tablets and smartphones, simultaneous monitoring of what is writing.

For help with writing:

The objective is above all to acquire effective tools. The student will thus be able to learn to structure his ideas, argue coherently (and convincingly) and enrich his vocabulary. It is essential for me to have written work from the student between each lesson.

For analyzes of oral literary texts:

In order to optimize the time available (and to put ourselves in conditions closest to oral exams), we choose together an extract from a work that the student will have previously prepared before the lesson. This would take around 20 minutes at most, and ideally just a little before the meeting time. If necessary, I have the habit of taking a paragraph at random which would serve as a basis for analyzing a passage.

For the corrections of end of studies work:

so that the meeting with the student is at the most profitable, I ask him to send me his writings before the meeting.

Apart from my presence with the student, any course involves a preparation time before and after the lesson, including the work that I correct. My goal is to design an individualized course, so I take the time to write detailed comments on corrected work or tips to ensure maximum success for everyone.

For example, an editorial correction can easily be the subject of a detailed commentary of 4 typewritten pages.

For adults (FLE):

In order to optimally prepare the first ones, I take the initiative to inform myself in advance of their objectives / expectations. Whether to practice speaking in everyday life, the professional world or to practice oral presentations, I prepare either PPT or technical sheets in advance that I send by mail ( after booking on the website).

The other alternative is to make a PV of the course that I send (or that I print). Giving importance to keeping a written record on the one hand to better memorize the topics covered, on the other hand to better assimilate the spelling.

Of a general nature, a concrete situation that responds to the learner's needs is the starting point. From this situation, I address the essential grammatical points.

I am a native English speaker. I have also studied the language to an advanced level in high school.

I can offer fun and fully immersive conversation classes in which we can discuss topics of your choosing. Classes can be structured or more free-flowing conversation, depending on the desire/ability of the student.

I can also simultaneously offer assistance in wording documents, emails, social media posts, speeches, essays etc. I am a masters student, having also previously worked in industry and therefore, I have experience in writing English in a professional context.

I can offer classes to help in preparation for English language exams: High-school, TOEFL etc.

Classes can be held here at EPFL where I study, at your home, or in a café (if it is not too noisy).

I have previous experience as a high-school chemistry and science tutor.

Master's student in physics at EPFL and literary at heart, I obtained the baccalaureate with honors (19.8/20 general average) and willingly help in learning the French language, its literature, its philosophy and its culture if interested. I propose to give French support courses for all levels, occasionally or regularly :)
I have previously given lessons to children. Having several young nephews and nieces and having regularly carried out baby sittings, I am used to supervising children.
I can also help with English classes (after having lived for several months in Cambridge, England), mathematics, science or provide general academic support for homework help for children.
Currently doing my master's thesis in Japan, I give lessons via webcam.
Do not hesitate to contact me if you are interested.
Hope to meet you,
Iolene

Hi all ! My name is Clement. I am in my third year of microtechnology at EPFL.

Alongside my studies, I discovered the pleasure of sharing my knowledge of maths and physics. This is an area I am passionate about and I strive to make my lessons as clear and interesting as possible for my students.

Moreover, having acquired a C1 level in English, I am able to give lessons in this language, which could be beneficial for those looking to improve both their scientific and linguistic skills.

I really enjoy helping others understand and appreciate math and physics. If you are interested, I would love to help you achieve your learning goals.

I am trilingual: I was born in the Netherlands with Dutch parents, I went to English boarding school and I finished my schooling in France and I currently live in Lausanne.
I have already given French, Dutch and English lessons in Lausanne so I am experienced with this (also on Apprentus). I am able to give lessons for all levels: from beginner to very experienced. For those interested in a preparation concerning literature rather, I am also able to give lessons (I had 20/20 on my French BAC).

As a student at the University of Lausanne, I have been giving tutoring and homework help to students from primary school to the end of secondary I for a year now. I have thus been able to develop adaptability skills to the specific needs of each student. My goal is to be able to provide support for organizing homework, to demonstrate some working methods and to explain the material in case of misunderstanding. I can explain concepts in all school subjects up to the end of secondary I, i.e. in French, German, English, math, science, history and geography (except in Italian and Spanish).
I can also possibly give support lessons for students in the first and second year of general culture.

I learned Spanish at the age of 7 by living in Costa Rica for 5 years, then I learned English at 12 by living in Canada for 4 years and I was able to strengthen my Spanish by living in Spain for 3 years.
I am comfortable with English, both written and spoken; I have obtained a SIELE C1 certification!
Spanish is more of a native language for me than a language I learned at school, so I can offer more in terms of spoken language and everyday help!

Regarding scientific subjects, I obtained my scientific baccalaureate with highest honors in 2024 and I am in my second year of engineering at EPFL.
