As a third-year Life Sciences student at EPFL, I offer math and physics-chemistry courses for students up to high school level. I earned a science baccalaureate with a specialization in mathematics and physics-chemistry, and have been giving private lessons for several years. My goal is to help each student progress methodically and confidently, in a caring environment adapted to their pace.

During the lessons, we focus on understanding key concepts, applying them through targeted exercises, and developing lasting autonomy in scientific subjects.

About Me

I’m a second-year student in Life Sciences at EPFL, offering tutoring in mathematics and physics-chemistry for students up to the gymnase level. I hold a French scientific baccalaureate with a specialization in mathematics and physics, and I’ve been tutoring since high school.

My goal is to help each student progress with confidence and structure, in a calm and supportive environment. I focus on understanding key concepts, applying them through targeted exercises, and building long-term autonomy in scientific subjects.

Each session is adapted to the student’s needs: we review problem areas, work step by step, and strengthen foundations before tackling more complex exercises. I always aim to keep things clear, structured, and stress-free.

If you're looking to fill gaps, prepare for an exam, or just get more comfortable with science, feel free to reach out — I’d be happy to help!

Dear Parents,

You have come here seeking help for your child, and you have made the right decision. Public schools play a crucial role in our education, but sometimes they lack the necessary resources to cater to each student individually.

I, too, experienced a challenging academic journey for this very reason. My struggles were not greater than those of others, but the rigid schedule limited my ability to fully flourish. Fortunately, with the support of my parents, I had the opportunity to attend a private school and fulfill my childhood dream of becoming a chemist.

I am now a chemist who holds a degree from EPFL (Swiss Federal Institute of Technology), and on April 11, 2019, I successfully defended a doctoral thesis in experimental physics at the University of Geneva (UNIGE).

However, all this knowledge is only valuable if it can be effectively communicated. As you know, communication is an essential aspect of teaching. There are teachers who can be uninteresting, and then there are others whose passion is contagious. I have often observed that teachers who manage to ignite their students' interest take the time to provide context for what they teach. This approach often sparks curiosity in students, leading them to engage willingly.

Your child's studies are a serious matter, you are right to look for solutions.

Best regards,
Julien

Master student at EPFL, I would be happy to help you (you or your child) for the subjects where you have difficulties! At university, I have been an assistant in Chemistry for the first years of EPFL for a few years as well as for a course linking mathematics and electronics, called Signals and Systems. So I am used to teaching and explaining concepts to students with difficulties. I also give private lessons to students passing the Swiss maturity or the French baccalaureate. To try to see together the difficulties as well as the misunderstandings: we go back to the lesson together, we do an exercise together and then I let the student do it independently and we review together if he is blocked or if we need to correct.
I would be delighted to be able to help you in all matters, both scientific and literary! :)

I am a second-year master's student at EPFL, in biology. I offer support courses in mathematics, physics, chemistry and biology. The course offers a possibility of help for students having difficulties in the proposed courses. The student will find a framework where he can ask these questions, discuss methodologies and improve. Putting my knowledge at the service of other people is a plus that I like to share.

I am at your disposal if you have any further questions.

Master's student in physics at EPFL.

The courses are aimed in particular at university students, but also at secondary school students. For those attending EPFL, I can give classes in person. Otherwise, I am also available for online courses. The topics and course delivery are agreed with the students according to their specific needs. They can include both theoretical explanations and the carrying out of practical exercises.

From my own experience, I have found that everyone can understand the most complex concepts, you just need to adopt the right approach and teaching method, which varies from person to person. As it is not always possible to make this important distinction in general courses, my intention is to provide those who need it with help in catching up with the program by filling in gaps and/or doubts. I do not favor a mnemonic approach, but rather a deep understanding of the subject.

I recently graduated with a Master's degree in Mathematics from EPFL, where I also worked as a student assistant for 4 years, notably for the CMS (Special Mathematics Course), the MAN (Upgrade), as well as for several first-year Bachelor's courses. I also served as a corrector for multiple exam sessions and wrote a handout for a course for Master's students in Mathematics at EPFL. Through these experiences, I had the opportunity to support many students in successfully completing their first year, often considered one of the most demanding.

Today, I offer private math lessons for all levels, from compulsory school to the federal maturity, as well as for Bachelor students needing support in subjects with a strong mathematical component.

Passionate about teaching, what I appreciate above all is seeing students' progress, their confidence and their growing understanding. My methodology is based on an intuitive understanding of concepts, through simple and clear examples, as well as structured support in reasoning. I place particular emphasis on solving exercises, because it is through regular practice that we consolidate our knowledge and truly progress in mathematics.

I'm a student at HEC Lausanne and I love working with children. I'm patient, responsible, and attentive, and I always take the time to build a trusting relationship with them. I speak French and English fluently, which also allows me to help with homework in both languages. I can babysit, accompany children on school trips, and offer quiet or fun activities depending on their needs. My main goal is for children to feel safe, listened to, and to have a good time.

Mathematics and physics form the basis of many scientific fields of study, but they can sometimes seem abstract or difficult to grasp on your own. In my courses, I guide students to help them understand the concepts in depth, progress at their own pace, and gain confidence.

Students can send me the topic of the lesson or their specific questions in advance, so that I can prepare a suitable and effective session.

I am also bilingual in Italian. Although it is not my native language, I particularly enjoy teaching it and helping beginners acquire a solid foundation. My Italian lessons are conversation-based, with supplementary grammar and conjugation exercises to ensure natural and enjoyable progress.

I mainly teach remotely, which allows for great flexibility and personalized support, wherever you are.

I'm in my second year at EPFL and my exams finish at the beginning of July — which means I'm much more available and flexible than usual for those first two weeks of July!

I offer support in math, physics and chemistry for all levels, from primary school to high school, in Lausanne.
Depending on your child's needs, the format can be completely adapted:

For little ones: something light and fun, to keep them connected to math without it feeling like school during the holidays 😊
For middle school students: review the year's concepts, fill in any gaps, and start August with a solid foundation.
For high school students: finish any exercises they were struggling with, revise for a make-up exam, or get a head start on the start of the new school year.

I adapt to each student's pace and explain until it is fully understood. Lessons are available in French, English, or Spanish.
Feel free to contact me so we can find what works best for you!
