Mathematics Tutoring for Elementary and High School students
Àpd 301.27 CNY /h
Currently I am doing my Masters in Semiconductors and Microelectronics, and I have already obtained a MS in General Physics from Universite Paris-Saclay. During my high-school I was an Olympiad math competitor and I was regularly representing my country in international competitions. I studied at a specialized math school, and I am very used to giving lectures and math classes.
I have taught at an elementary school, and my approach to teaching is giving time to my students to work through problems, discussing with them how to tackle them, and generally instilling courage and confidence in their abilities. Too many times I have seen children which are good at thinking, but feel intimated by math, mainly due to the formal nature in which it is taught in high school. I try to break that by giving analogies when explaining concepts and supporting students while they solve problems, instead of showing them solutions and teaching them rote methods.
I love to work with both advanced students, to whom I give more advanced problems, challenging them but also guiding them, and with students who are struggling, because I believe they are indeed capable, but maybe missing confidence, or have been scared from the subject through experience.
I come from a family of teachers - my grandmother is a Math teacher (still working at the age of 77!), and my mother is an English teacher. Thus, one could say that teaching is part of my family. ;)

Présentation
Before starting to work with a student, so the student can gauge if they would like to work with me as their teacher ;)
In my spare time, I like to read philosophy and discuss with my friends (currently going through Mediations on First Philosophy by Descartes). I am a big sci-fi fan and enjoy reading books suggested through the Hugo Awards. I am also trying to organize visits for high-school and university students to Semiconductor labs (currently working on a summer school at imec), through my involvement as a student ambassador at the European Chips Skills Academy.
I do calisthenics and Qi-Gong to stay grounded and connected to my body. Through my experience, I have observed that my mind works better when I am physically in shape.

Expérience / Qualifications
I have given numerous lectures to my peers in high school (usually 2 hours long) in specific topics of Olympiad Mathematics. During my last year of my BSc (which coincided with Covid), I was back in my home country of Bulgaria, and I worked as a part-time elementary school teacher. I worked with students from different age groups, 180 in total, and my work week was 20 teaching hours.
