Chemistry is a very complex subject and can be problematic for highs if there is a basic deficiency. I can help you with your questions, your homework, projects at schools etc. At this time I have chemistry courses at the university, so I have different approaches to understand, and teach this subject.

Version française: I have also completed the International Baccalaureate with Higher Level Chemistry. Currently I have classes of University-level chemistry, so I have different approaches to understanding, and teaching this interesting, but complex subject.

English Literature (specifically International Bacc (IB) Higher Level)
58.1 € /h
Like any other language, one cannot simply excel by covering the written aspects such as grammar; practice in linguistics will be what really rounds off your level of both speaking and writing. I offer both understanding and explaining grammatical, prose, and poetry of the IB English course, as well as preparing various topics to discuss in order to expand your vocabulary and fluency when speaking, writing and doing the exams.

English Conversation classes/Vocabulary building/English writing
58.1 € /h
A language that is learned fast once spoken, English is one that requires a development of one's vocabulary. I believe the fastest way to get a feel for a language is to speak it, in a natural flow of conversation. I propose weekly classes of various different topics, about what is happening in the world, new films movies, culture, etc. whatever we choose to discuss in order to improve and correct your English.
Correction of texts and essay-planning is also possible !

Hello everyone, I am Bertrand and welcome on my page apprentices.

Former student of the University of Rome Tor Vergata and future student at the University of Geneva, Faculty of Economics and Management, I offer my services to young students in difficulty from the 9th, 10th, 11th, bringing them a pedagogy individualized, help with the preparation of questions or exams.

In my personal experience, math tutoring is based primarily on the review of lessons, the understanding of theorems, the resolution of exercises and the same principle applies to chemistry and physics.

Other subjects also require an increased revision and above all a good reading and understanding of the topics covered

Repetition is the mother of pedagogy.

Mathematics, chemistry and physics are often the branches that create the most problems.

I am here to improve your skills and especially to let you know: how should I think about this problem?

These are the key points that will make you much more comfortable with these subjects, which by far seem complicated but are not.

With 14 years of experience as a private teacher, I was able to target most of the factors related to success and understanding, whether in Mathematics or in Physics-Chemistry. Engineer graduated from the INSA group in France, my training allows me to meet the needs of students of all levels, from the youngest to Master 2.

Thus, if you wish to be accompanied by a person who is more or less your age (28 years old), an educator and who wishes to transmit to you a passion for science (yes it is possible!), All this in a friendly setting, then I follow your teacher!

With me you:

- will acquire a pragmatic working method that will save you time in your various revisions, in science but also in your other subjects
- rationalize the abstract through analogies that I will share with you (and you will create your own) to better understand Maths, Physics and Chemistry
- unleash your full potential by regaining self-confidence and developing your reasoning power (I will help you, believe me I will not leave before this is the case)
- will love science and I put my hand to cut it because of the dozens of students that I have been able to accompany over the last few years, all have loved it and some have even been impatiently awaiting their course for the week!

So if you are in trouble for any reason, know that I am here and that we will get there;)

I offer private lessons in science and mathematics as part of a help to success.
We review the material that you are asked to know.
If there are concepts that are not understood or seem abstract, we try to find together a vision of the material that suits you and speaks to you.
In addition, I have already had the opportunity to work with DYS adolescents (12-16 years) (dyslexia, dysorthography, dyscalculia, dysgraphia), so don't be afraid to contact me and explain your situation to me.

Dear Parents,

You have come here seeking help for your child, and you have made the right decision. Public schools play a crucial role in our education, but sometimes they lack the necessary resources to cater to each student individually.

I, too, experienced a challenging academic journey for this very reason. My struggles were not greater than those of others, but the rigid schedule limited my ability to fully flourish. Fortunately, with the support of my parents, I had the opportunity to attend a private school and fulfill my childhood dream of becoming a chemist.

I am now a chemist who holds a degree from EPFL (Swiss Federal Institute of Technology), and on April 11, 2019, I successfully defended a doctoral thesis in experimental physics at the University of Geneva (UNIGE).

However, all this knowledge is only valuable if it can be effectively communicated. As you know, communication is an essential aspect of teaching. There are teachers who can be uninteresting, and then there are others whose passion is contagious. I have often observed that teachers who manage to ignite their students' interest take the time to provide context for what they teach. This approach often sparks curiosity in students, leading them to engage willingly.

Your child's studies are a serious matter, you are right to look for solutions.

Best regards,
Julien

My name is Manuele and I am 30 years old. I'm good-humoured, creative person and if my lab is not blowing up into my face, I'm also very calm and hearty.
Currently, I am working as a PhD in an interdisciplinary field of chemistry and physics. I have a Masters degree in chemistry as well as a Bachelors with a major in chemistry and a minor in physics. In the past years, I had the privilege to acquire fundamental knowledge in chemistry, physics and mathematics at a top academic institution.
For my achievements, I was honored three times by the faculty of Chemistry with the Werner price and for my dissertation I was awarded the semester price.

My Philosophy:
My objective is to provide individual approaches to convert weaknesses into strengths and to face challenges with the certainty of success.
In the past four years, I have been able to acquire an extensive repertoire of experience in this area. I now try to pass this experience on to my students in the best possible way
My personal goal is that students no longer worry after an exam about whether the exam was passed or not, but that they are annoyed if the best possible grade was not achieved.
In order to guarantee improved results, I only accept 2 students within the same time period (in English and/or German).

I'm looking forward to meeting you!

👨‍🎓 With 4 years of experience in distance education, I am a mathematics teacher specializing in support lessons and private lessons. I also teach physics and chemistry as well as scientific subjects in general.

I hold a Master's degree in Operational Research (Applied Mathematics) and I have been teaching private lessons for more than three years, mainly mathematics for middle and high school levels.

✏ I have taught students from different schools, whether public, private, following the French program (mission), Belgian, Swiss, Spanish (students from French-speaking or English-speaking Spanish schools) or American. In summary, all French or English programs.

✏ I support students from A to Z in all stages of their learning, using a simple, new generation and effective methodology: explanation of lessons, summary of lessons, application and deepening exercises, etc.

✏ I also prepare students for exams and competitions.

✏ I also support students with their homework (homework help).

✏ All my students have made extraordinary progress and achieved their goals, with grades of 16, 17, 18 or 19 out of 20.

Sessions usually take place as follows:

1️⃣ The first sessions are mainly intended to assess the level of the student in order to determine the shortcomings noted.

2️⃣ Then we make a plan to fill those gaps: number of hours of work required, parts of the lessons to focus on, lots of training and development exercises, etc.

3️⃣ We make sure to stay up to date with the student's class teacher to track their progress and align our work with what is being taught in class.

4️⃣ Then I provide exams similar to what may be offered in class.

5️⃣ Upon request, I write a monthly report to keep parents informed of their child's level throughout the course.

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

I also offer crash courses for those preparing for the start of the school year, so that they start the year well prepared 💪 and with a head start on the program.🧠

- I am currently an IB graduate who is looking to tutor before university.
- I have studied IB chemistry and biology at higher level and these are subjects that I know quite well and am willing to teach at either standard or higher level.
- Mathematics is something that I have always been strong in, however in IB, I only took Mathematics AA at standard level so that is the capacity at which I can tutor for that subject.
- As far as the tutoring experience, I have tutored multiple students before at high school all of which greatly benefited from the experience. We would meet and they would tell me which specific subject areas they may be struggling with and I can sit down and explain the topic area, provide practice questions, recommend recourses etc.
- Tutoring with me involves sitting down, making sure that you understand the fundamental concepts of the topic area beyond just the surface level, so that you are able to apply your knowledge to a broad range of questions.
- This will be enhanced through practice questions and different ways to apply your knowledge.
