I’m Onix, a science tutor living in Leuven studying a Master's in Nanoscience and Nanotechnology. I hold degrees in Environmental Chemistry and Chemical Engineering. Over the past years I’ve tutored students in math, chemistry, and physics—from middle school to university level—always focusing on making complex topics clear and approachable.

My lessons are practical, engaging, and adapted to your learning style. Whether you’re preparing for exams, catching up on difficult concepts, or aiming to strengthen your problem-solving skills, I’ll guide you step by step with patience and clarity. I believe learning science should feel less like memorizing and more like discovering how the world works!

Classes can be held online or in person in Leuven. I provide personalized explanations, practice problems, and tips to build both knowledge and confidence :)

Over
I am a curious and hardworking person who enjoys meaningful conversations and learning from others. I am currently doing a master's in nanoscience and have a background in environmental chemistry and chemical engineering. I see math, chemistry, and physics as powerful tools to understand the world. My teaching philosophy is simple: adapt to each student’s style, build confidence, and spark curiosity!
Opleiding
Master of Science in Nanoscience, Nanotechnology, and Nanoengineering (KU Leuven)
Bachelor of Science in Chemical Engineering (Washington University, in St. Louis)
Bachelor of Science in Environmental Chemistry (Beloit College)
Leservaring
During my academic career, I served as a teaching assistant for introductory chemistry and organic chemistry courses, where I found joy in adapting complex topics to each student’s skill set. This passion led me to various mentoring roles, including serving as an advisor for first- and second-year university students as a Head Resident Advisor at Beloit College and a Residential College Fellow at Washington University. Additionally, I taught secondary mathematics to Latin American immigrants as a GED tutor at Beloit Public Library and coached basketball for children ages 8–14 as a summer basketball coach. Few things are more rewarding than witnessing someone’s progress and excitement for learning.

Arina
- What do the lessons entail?
The tutoring focuses on mathematics in secondary education. I help students understand both the theory and its practical application in exercises. If necessary, I provide additional study materials, such as diagrams, summaries, or resources, to clarify the material.

- My approach
I would appreciate receiving an overview of the study material, tests, or assignments in advance that present difficulties. This allows me to properly prepare the lessons and focus on the student's specific needs. This also allows me to better assess the level.

During tutoring, I try to explain the material in a simple and understandable way, often from a different perspective than in the classroom. My goal is for the student to truly understand the material and gain more confidence. Seeing progress and achieving results together gives me great satisfaction.

- Why do I tutor?
Mathematics has always been a great passion of mine. Although my current studies no longer revolve around it, I still enjoy pursuing it. Tutoring is therefore an ideal combination of hobby and extra income for me. Naturally, I always work in a professional and structured manner.

- Experience
Since 2018, I've been tutoring students of various ages, both in primary and secondary education. I also regularly help fellow students with their learning material, which is always a positive experience.

- Who am I?
My name is Arina, I'm 26 years old and I study law. I live and study in Leuven, where I also live in student housing.

I'm an approachable, enthusiastic, and open person. This helps me quickly build trust, so students feel comfortable and confident asking questions. They know they can contact me outside of tutoring sessions if they get stuck on an exercise, and they often continue to do so afterward.

During my own high school years, I struggled with math in my first and second grades. Although I found the subject interesting, I struggled to fully grasp the material because the explanations didn't align with my learning style.

When I started tutoring (at my parents' insistence), my perspective on mathematics completely changed. My interest grew so strongly that I later pursued a degree in economics and mathematics. My love for mathematics has remained ever since.

Because math wasn't a part of my further studies, I decided to tutor myself. This way, I can share my enthusiasm and help students develop the confidence I once had to build.

Mathematics and Physics tutoring for secondary and primary education (also at home). Master Commercial Engineer KUL with a Science-Mathematics-8 and Civil Engineering background.

ABOUT THIS LESSON:
I offer tutoring in Python programming and mathematics for university and college students. I also support secondary school and primary school students in all scientific subjects.

I start by (if available) using your old tests to determine together with you (and possibly your parents) what specific difficulties you have. In addition, we will have a short conversation in which you can explain to me which issues you have experienced as the most difficult and would like to focus more on.

My focus is on ensuring that the student is able to find the solution independently, step by step, and I help where necessary by providing mini-tips to get to the next step together. This makes my method much more personalized than standard classroom teaching. When I notice that a student has difficulty independently coming up with the correct editing steps, I create a concise step-by-step plan tailored to that specific subject so that the student begins to see more structure in the learning material. At the same time, I ensure that the underlying theory is thoroughly understood by linking it to self-invented exercises and practical examples from the student's personal environment, which makes learning easier and more lasting.

ABOUT NICK:
I am a 22-year-old master's student in Commercial Engineering at KU Leuven. I started tutoring my sister, nephews, nieces and friends and I get a lot of satisfaction from improving and helping others when they come to me for help.

Because I have been tutoring consistently for 4 years, I have the right resources to present learning material in an understandable way and to strengthen the motivation, concentration and independent study of my students. In addition, I have a lot of experience with children and didactic teaching techniques from my tennis initiator diploma. Ranging from first to sixth secondary school, from 2 hours to 6 hours of mathematics per week and everything in between, I have guided students of all directions and levels, with a successful outcome every time.

I don't give up until I'm sure a student understands the material well enough and I see them making progress. By always appearing enthusiastic, I ensure that together we do not let the drudgery of difficult subjects get any further than the school desks.

I am flexible in making appointments and am open to every student. This can be done at a fixed time every week or lesson by lesson. I provide tutoring at your home (I can travel by car), at my home (Kampenhout), in my student room (Leuven) or online.

If you are interested, please do not hesitate to contact me so that we can discuss the practicalities in more depth. Together we can both make a schedule and work lesson by lesson to achieve your personal academic goals or those of your child.
