About Me

Currently at the end of a Masters at EPFL, I have been studying chemical engineering for 5 years now. During my studies, I was able to accompany students during their Maturity exams. I also had the opportunity to assist two EPFL professors in the field of programming and chemistry, which allowed me to train myself in teaching.
Due to my youth and my open-mindedness, I have easy contact with my students and I try to guide them as best as possible in order to boost their motivation.

I offer support, refresher and advanced courses in mathematics.
I adapt to everyone.
I have a dynamic and pedagogical approach.
My lessons can take place at your home or via a camera that films my writings, as well as a computer camera for videoconferencing. Thus, you can improve your level in mathematics wherever you are, without any geographical constraint, in a fun and effective way.

Acquiring methods, organizing knowledge and reasoning to solve exercises, using memorization techniques are often the important points to develop to enable the student to be independent and achieve their goals.

I am rather open and relaxed, while being precise and rigorous.

I am a secondary school teacher (retraining in 2021) after having been a chemical and textile engineer, and a former student of a preparatory class for the grandes écoles (higher and special maths).

For 12 years, I have been giving individual lessons to students of all levels, and more specifically to students preparing for the French scientific baccalaureate, the international baccalaureate or in cycle.

I offer courses adapted to all levels, whether in college, high school or bachelor's degree. My classes include homework help, exam preparation and in-depth exercises. As a former student who asked a lot of questions himself, I encourage my students to ask as many questions as possible in order to dissipate all gray areas and leave no detail to chance, thus promoting exam success. .
I firmly believe that academic success does not depend on an innate aptitude, but rather on the ability to identify weak points and work on them. As a teacher, I am attentive to these weak points by regularly asking the student questions about the meaning of the exercises and each step of the calculation. I also push my students to develop their intuition so that they can easily adapt to any problem on exam day.

✏ I prepare for exams and competitions

✏ I help with homework.

✏ My students have all evolved in an extraordinary way and have all achieved their goals. 16, 17, 18, 19 out of 20.

Sessions usually take place as follows:

1️⃣ The first sessions are mainly intended to gauge the level of the student in order to highlight the shortcomings observed.

2️⃣ Then comes the establishment of a plan to fill the gaps: Number of hours of work required, The parts of the lessons to focus on, Several training and development exercises...

3️⃣ We make sure to do all of this while staying up to date with the student's class teacher.

4️⃣ I then provide exams similar to what is likely to be asked in class.

5️⃣ I draw up a report on demand, usually monthly, in order to keep parents informed about their child's level throughout the course.

I also adapt my methodology according to the needs of each student, so everyone has a personalized working method adapted to their needs!

I also do crash courses for those who are preparing for the start of the school year so that they start the year strong 💪 and know the program in advance. 🧠

With 7+ years' experience in education, I have coached over 50 students to improve their academic results and boost their confidence in math and physics.

My tutoring services always include a personalized plan for each student. This plan is established during the first session where I like to meet the student, better understand their difficulties and get to know their schedule.

In the first session, we will:

- Get to know each other.
- Understand the student's strengths and identify areas for improvement.
- Understand the student's needs and difficulties.
- Get to know the student's schedule.
- Create a tutoring plan

Typically, sessions take place as follows:
i. Theoretical review of complex concepts in simple terms
ii. Tips for solving problems
iii. Abundance of exercises from my databases (exams, exercises)

If you are interested in my services, please provide the following information when contacting me:

- School system (French Bac, Matu, IB, A-levels)
- Location of tutoring (or video tutoring if applicable)
- Number of sessions per week and preferred days and times of the week (this can also be discussed after the first session, if you prefer)

Third-year physics student at EPFL Lausanne.

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.

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.

Most lessons will start with a discussion before jumping into practice questions and worked examples in a calmer environment than the classroom.

We will discuss what area(s) of Mathematics the student is struggling with, I will then present diagnostic questions to identify the root cause of the confusion before working from basics to make sure the student understands what the gap in their knowledge is and how to best reinforce the gap in their learning.

For more confident students one of the best ways to prepare them for exams is working through exam-style questions and reviewing common areas where marks are lost along with best practices to minimise wasted time during the tests.
