Olympiad-Level Physical Chemistry Online (Theory+practice)

From 18.8 € /h

You will learn the most important theoretical aspects of physical chemistry necessary for solving problems at National and International Chemical Olympiads and put them to use in a myriad of problems from previous Olympiads. We will walk through the solutions for problems from the Olympiads of different countries: Canada, Germany, France, Russia, Poland, and others. All problems will be translated into English, so you will be able to access material that your peers can't. Homework will include solving other problems from past Olympiads and doing simpler practice problems.
Additionally, we will look at the practical applications of the theories and what philosophical implications they might have.

About Me

I am a polymath, I am majoring in chemistry but I am also interested in theoretical physics, sustainable development, permaculture & regenerative agriculture, music, video games as narratives, and linguistics.
I am also a polyglot, I have studied over 30 languages, the ones that I am most comfortable speaking are English, German, French, Polish, Danish and Latin.
I believe that anyone is capable of learning vast amounts of information, given the right approach. I strive to find the right approach to my students and explain abstract ideas in terms that anyone can understand.
I like to combine knowledge from different, seemingly disparate fields and find analogies and parallels between them, and I hope to show my students the beauty of these parallels that tie together so many different areas of learning.

Education

Specialist in Chemistry Radiochemistry, Moscow State University, Department of Chemistry (6-year Chemistry degree; I wrote a thesis on the effects of gamma-radiation on the hydrolysis of lignin)

Experience / Qualifications

I have been teaching physical chemistry to advanced pupils for 4 years, and 5 of my pupils have won the Russian Chemical Olympiad in 2021 and 2022, amongst other regional Olympiads.
My degree qualifies me to teach at any school in Russia.

Living Latin through Comprehensible Input (Contemporary and Medieval Latin)

22.33 € /h

You will learn Latin the way it was meant to be learned - through conversation! Medieval scholars and contemporary language researchers alike advocate the use of dialogues and comprehensible input for language acquisition, and it most certainly works! As opposed to the "memorise grammar rules and then babble them in front of the class" approach that was demonstrated by the infamous "Romanēs eunt domus" scene from Monty Python's "The Life of Brian", you will learn to feel the grammar, so that you will be able to use the different cases of Latin without even thinking about it, just like a native speaker!
For this class we will be using the following books, depending on the learner's level:
Hans Øreberg's "Lingua Latīna per sē Illustrāta"
"Corderiī Colloquia"
Erasmus Rask's "Colloquia Familiaria"
John C. Traupman Conversational Latin for Oral Proficiency
I will be the collocutor and I will answer the learner's questions and explain certain oddities solely in Latin (I will use a second language only when the situation calls for it)
We will also engage in free-form conversations, discussions of the dialogues, of our life experiences etc so that the learner can apply what they learn to real-life situations and expand their vocabulary

High-school Chemistry (A-levels, GCSE, problem walkthrough & practice)

18.8 € /h

You will learn the syllabus necessary to pass A-levels, GCSE's, and after that we will walk through past exam papers together. Your homework will include solving similar problems and practice problems on your own, the solutions will be reviewed at the start of each subsequent lesson.

This course helps you truly understand physics in a structured and logical way. Whether you are working on mechanics, electricity, waves, or thermodynamics, lessons are tailored to your level and goals.

We focus on building strong conceptual understanding first, then applying that knowledge to exercises and exam-style problems. Instead of memorizing formulas, you will learn how to derive and use them confidently.

Lessons are interactive and taught using a digital whiteboard, where we work through theory and calculations step by step. The goal is deeper understanding, improved problem-solving skills, and lasting confidence in physics.
