Mathematics, physics, chemistry for 5/6th secondary students

From 24 $ /h

The scientific branches can be a problem for students of 5/6th secondary.
Thanks to my time at Collège Saint-Pierre de Jette (a school renowned for its scientific section in Brussels)
and from my first 3 years at the Ecole Polytechnique in Brussels, I think I am able to understand and be able to explain in more appropriate terms a subject that may seem complicated at first sight.

Extra information

The student must have his own equipment, in which case I will bring the necessary (calculator,...)
The course can possibly be held in English (B2/C1 level recognized by universities)

About Me

As a 3rd year student at the Ecole Polytechnique in Brussels, I am regularly confronted with many problems, both physical and chemical, calling on advanced notions of mathematics.
If I had to describe myself, I would say that I am hardworking, stubborn and anxious to transmit information to those who would have less understood.

Education

Graduated from Collège Saint-Pierre de Jette, currently in 3rd year at the Ecole Polytechnique de Bruxelles.
All my studies were done in French, but since I went to university, courses in English have multiplied; allowing me to possibly give lessons in English.

Experience / Qualifications

None so far, except these hours spent explaining to my classmates different points of material (for which I was not paid :-) )

A highly experienced Franco-Belgian teacher (ook in het nederlands!) offers private lessons in mathematics (including finance), probability and statistics, as well as physics, chemistry, and biology for secondary and higher education levels. For physics, chemistry, and biology, the instruction is tailored to the secondary level, specifically up to the 5th year of secondary education in Belgium.

Whether you prefer lessons at your place, my place, or remotely, I am flexible to accommodate your needs. If necessary, I can travel to your home in Brussels, Walloon and Flemish Brabant, with a minimum duration of 2 hours per session. The lessons are designed to provide extensive practice with numerous exercises. Distance learning options are also available through platforms such as Skype, Facebook, etc. Please note that for students in France, only distance learning courses are provided.

In mathematics, I specialize in various topics and frequently provide lessons covering the entire secondary school curriculum, including math 6 and higher. These topics encompass factorization, equations of the 1st and 2nd degree (with in-depth study of parabolas), limits, derivatives, integrals, exponentials and logarithms, as well as trigonometry. Additionally, I am occasionally called upon to teach analytical geometry in space, including equations of lines and planes.

For statistics and probabilities, I provide instruction in descriptive and inferential statistics (univariate and bivariate), covering confidence intervals and hypothesis tests, applicable to secondary and higher education levels.

Feel free to reach out to me to discuss and arrange the lessons based on your specific needs and availability. My aim is to help you enhance your skills effectively and provide personalized instruction. By tailoring the lessons to your requirements, we can ensure rapid progress in your studies.

An engineer by training, I have been supporting students of all levels, in mathematics and beyond, for 10 years.

My classes aren't just about explaining formulas: I strive to convey a work method, self-confidence, and a positive approach to learning. Together, we'll work on gaining a deeper understanding of mathematical concepts, but also on becoming more organized, managing stress, and progressing independently.

👉 What I propose:

- Clear explanations adapted to your level

- Practical and structured exercises

- Helps with memorization and organization

- Stress management and mental preparation before exams

- Regular and personalized monitoring

It's September, the start of the new school year: the perfect time to get off to a good start and give yourself the best possible chance. Getting support now will allow you to approach the year with confidence, with a solid foundation and an effective working method.

My goal? For you to succeed in math and gain peace of mind, so you can progress in school and beyond.

Hi! I'm Clément, 22 years old. After graduating from the Royal Athenaeum in Koekelberg, I started studying Applied Economics at the VUB, where I'm currently in my third year of my bachelor's degree. During my studies, I regularly helped fellow students with economics and mathematics.
I hope to help you understand the subject matter better and who knows, maybe even get you excited about the subject! In my lessons I work calmly: we start with the core concepts and build from there, so that you get a clear overview and become confident about the subject matter.

Having recently passed the GRE exam for my complementary master in the United States, I propose to accompany students in the preparation of this stressful exam, where time is vital to have a good score.

My accompaniment:
• Available H24, 7/7, via message/email outside of class to answer urgent questions about a class or an exercise.
• Provide additional exercises if necessary.

Passionate & empathetic teacher. I have a Master's in Physics with honors from the University of Leicester (which was featured at the time as a top 5 Physics university in the UK by The Guardian) and a - french - European School diploma in which I achieved 90% in Physics and 85% in Maths.

Helping others understand difficult topics and skills is something that I am very passionate about as an empathetic person. I have 5 years of experience teaching Physics and Maths to kids from unprivileged backgrounds both in a homework schools as well as via private teaching. In private teaching, I have experience tutoring people with learning disabilities (ADHD, Dyslexia, Discalculia and more), younger kids of ages 7-12 and older students preparing for their final baccalaureate exams in advanced maths/physics curriculums.

In my classes, I aim to:

- help students achieve better grades in exams/tests in all branches of Physics & Maths
- clearly explain and break down topics
- give context and or example applications of topics (to improve understanding and memorization)
- help with ADHD & other learning disabilities
- give practical advice for university applications (eg. UCAS in the UK) and discuss the exciting Physics research/work and projects you can work on later in life.

Physics has a plethora of useful and fascinating applications, from the detection of Gravitational Waves and Gamma-Ray Bursts to the development of novel Medical Imaging techniques and Nano-technology (eg: smartphones). It is a subject that I am very passionate about and I hope to make use of my years of experience and extensive knowledge to help you understand and love the subject! My lessons will always be tailored to the individual needs of the student, so please do not hesitate to contact me if you have questions!

the EXMD, entrance exam for Medicine now passed in Competition is now slightly more complicated.

The subject of this exam is specific and requires a teaching of logic and not the simple recitation of courses learned by heart.

Indeed, it is professors of Medicine who create the questions of the competition and seek to make the student reason and reflect in order to classify him.

There are 4 science subjects:

-Mathematics
-Physical
-Chemistry
-Biology

These four subjects are essential to master because they will follow you throughout your first two years of Bachelor.

And 4 non-scientific subjects:
-Ethics
-Empathy
-Reasoning
-Communication

These subjects are based on fairly simple principles and a lot of logic, which is sometimes not innate!

I obviously teach for the 8 subjects.

Welcome to my profile.
I am an experienced mathematics and science teacher with over seven years of experience helping students strengthen their understanding, improve their results and become more confident, independent learners.
My lessons are designed for students and families who value high-quality, well-prepared and personalised teaching. Rather than offering a one-size-fits-all course, I adapt each lesson to the student’s level, objectives, school programme and learning style.
I teach students who need to rebuild essential foundations as well as those working on advanced topics, examinations or demanding international programmes such as the European Baccalaureate and International Baccalaureate, as well as, the various Belgian programs.

◆ MY TEACHING APPROACH ◆

• • Initial assessment • •
We begin by identifying the student’s current level, strengths, difficulties and academic objectives.

• • Personalised lesson planning • •
Each student receives a structured learning approach based on their specific needs, curriculum and pace of progress.

• • Clear and accessible explanations • •
Complex concepts are broken down into logical, manageable steps, with visual representations and carefully selected examples.

• • Active problem-solving • •
Students are encouraged to think, explain their reasoning and develop reliable methods for approaching unfamiliar questions.

• • Targeted practice • •
Exercises are selected to address specific weaknesses, consolidate knowledge and prepare effectively for tests and examinations.

• • Regular review and feedback • •
Previously studied material is revisited when necessary, and clear feedback is provided to help the student understand what has improved and what still requires attention.

◆ WHAT YOU CAN EXPECT ◆

Professionalism and reliability are central to my work:
• • Lessons prepared in advance and tailored to the student
• • Punctual and well-structured sessions
• • Patient, respectful and focused teaching
• • Clear explanations without unnecessary complication
• • Constructive and timely feedback
• • Adaptation based on the student’s progress
• • A serious learning environment that remains supportive and encouraging

My objective is not simply to help students complete exercises. I aim to help them understand the underlying concepts, develop stronger reasoning skills and gain the confidence required to work more independently.

Mathematics and science can appear difficult when important foundations are missing or when explanations are poorly adapted to the learner. With the right structure, guidance and practice, these subjects become far more logical, accessible and rewarding.

This mathematics course is aimed at students in lower or upper secondary education who wish to strengthen their basic skills, fill in gaps or effectively prepare for an exam.

We will work together on understanding key concepts (arithmetic, geometry, algebra, functions, etc.) through clear explanations, progressive exercises and a method adapted to the pace of each student.

The goal is to restore confidence, develop logic and reasoning skills, and make mathematics more accessible and concrete.

This course is also suitable for students in scientific, technical or linguistic fields who need regular or occasional support.

My goal is to restore confidence, explain things differently when necessary, and turn challenges into real successes. I primarily prepare students for the CE1D exam. First, we work together on each skill assessed during this test. Then, I support the student in putting all of these skills into practice so they can approach the exam in its entirety with confidence and method.

I offer private tutoring in mathematics, statistics and probability to secondary school students and university students.

The sessions are tailored to each student's level, difficulties, and objectives. We begin by identifying the concepts that pose a problem, then we review the basics before applying them in progressive exercises.

I can assist you with, among other things:

- review the basics in mathematics, algebra and calculation;
- to better understand the theory;
- develop your mathematical reasoning;
- solving exercises step by step;
- to study statistics and probabilities;
- prepare for a test, an exam or a second session;
- structure your revisions;
- to gain confidence and autonomy.

I have a degree in Business Engineering and a master's degree in Data Science and Statistics from UCLouvain. I currently work as a consultant in the field of data.

I led university practical work in probability and mathematics in the first year of bachelor's studies and provided tutoring for three years via Schola ULB.

My method is based on clear explanations, targeted exercises, and a structured progression. The goal is not only to pass an exam, but also to understand the reasoning behind it and develop a reusable method for tackling new problems.

CEB, CE1d, Central Jury.
Listening to and analyzing the student's difficulty, providing help with work methods and planning if necessary, explanations and small homework assignments if necessary (for example, when the school does not give homework).
Passionate about teaching, I always seek the most suitable explanation for my students. My goal is to make mathematics more concrete and therefore simpler for my students.

I regularly identify a previously learned concept that hasn't been fully grasped and needs to be reviewed. Sometimes, I see signs of a possible learning disability (dyscalculia or other); in this case, I discuss it with the parents and suggest the possibility of consulting a specialist (psychologist, speech therapist, etc.). Occasionally, I also notice a difficulty my student has that requires more intensive practice (e.g., quantities, logical-mathematical reasoning, Euclidean division, etc.).

Statistics (Higher Education, Psychology, Medicine, ...).
Descriptive statistics (mean, mode, median, box-plot, variance, standard deviation, ...) and statistical inference (Normal, Gauss, Chi-square, ANOVA, ...).

Since mathematics is one of the most difficult school subjects for students, extra help is often required, and I would be delighted to provide it :)
I can help with all math chapters from 1st grade to 10th grade. As well as statistics for upper secondary and higher education.
