Over

I am a confident graduate from the University of Bristol in the UK. I am friendly, happy, and patient, with lots of experience speaking about my subjects and sharing my knowledge with students, friends, and even family! I graduated with first-class honors in Physics and Philosophy, and with a commendation!

I have a passion for developing other people's understanding of the subject. Maths and physics, and even philosophy, can often seem to be scary, and intimidating. However with my patience and support, I believe everybody can understand them, and hopefully see the beauty and joy of the subjects.

In my free time, away from my subjects, I love reading literary fiction. My favorite work is Joyce's Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man and Dostoevsky's The Brother's Karamazov. I also spend hours playing the piano and guitar and get exercise from playing basketball and going for walks in nature.

Opleiding

My most recent education is completing a master's with first-class honors in Physics and Philosophy from the University of Bristol, UK. I graduated with a commendation and excellent grades. The University of Bristol is a very high achieving and competitive university with one of the best physics department's in the country.

At university, I studied a joint honors course in Physics and Philosophy and loved every moment! I particularly enjoyed studying quantum mechanics and general relativity and reading about the philosophic foundations of modern physics. My philosophy of physics project is being published and I was awarded a first-class honors degree, averaging over 80% in physics and mathematics exams.

I am now applying to study theoretical physics at Cambridge and will go on to a Ph.D. and a research career.

Leservaring

I spent two years working with professional tutoring firm Creative in Excellence, where I tutored maths and English. At university I spent lots of time helping and teaching friends, hosting study sessions and being a point of contact whenever someone needed assistance. Furthermore I was president of Physics and Philosophy society, and organised and delivered seminars and lectures on topics in physics and the philosophy and history of physics.

I love my subjects and believe studying can be enjoyable and engaging, with a good teacher. I want to share my passion for learning and understanding with students and make physics, maths and philosophy accessible and clear to as many people as possible.

My high-level specialisms include quantum mechanics and quantum information theory, mechanics, and the philosophy of physics. I also love metaphysics and epistemology, and the philosophy of time.

Philosophy tutoring for high school and university students

23.9 $ /h

Philosophy can often seem like a frustrating and alien academic field, with arbitrary questions and endless arguments. However with a experienced philosopher as a guide (such as myself) the discipline can be revealed as an exciting exploration of ourselves and the world around us. Depending on what interests you, or what your course requires you to study, we will read texts together, analyse concepts and arguments and actually practice philosophy by having discussions and refining arguments.

Philosophy is a magic sword when it comes to navigating the modern world. As we are bombarded with information, a engaged philosophy education gives you the critical thinking and logical analysis skills dismiss the rhetoric and nonsense and find the truth and falsity in a statement, making you a better citizen and friend.

My specialism is the philosophy of physics, including the philosophy of quantum mechanics, philosophy of science and philosophy of time. My other interests include metaphysics and the political philosophy.

Hi! My name is Lex. I have been tutoring mathematics and physics for secondary school in Den Helder for 3.5 years. Since this year I am now a bachelor's student in mathematics at the University of Amsterdam, and I am looking for a few new students to guide for tutoring.

A few points that really set me apart from the rest are:

- my tutoring experience, I have been giving 3.5 years of tutoring experience at many different levels
- I work a lot less formally, this mainly ensures that the student is not afraid to ask questions or will feel "stupid"
- I am very flexible with the times
- I can explain everything in many different ways
- the student can always send a WhatsApp message if something doesn't work out, and I will help him with that

Online tutoring is certainly possible, and I also ensure that all notes that I make are forwarded so that they can be reviewed later.

The best I recommend is a block of 2 hours in a row for tutoring, hereby I am sure that I can sufficiently help the student.

Ik heb altijd een leuke schooltijd gehad en vond het altijd erg interessant om nieuwe dingen te leren.
Ik heb technische opleiding gedaan en vervolgens als technisch tekenaar veel ervaring op kunnen doen. Hier kwam ik erachter dat de wiskunde, natuurkunde, nederlands en engels erg belangrijke vakken zijn om het werk uit te kunnen voeren.

Daarom wil ik mijn kennis graag op een begrijpelijke manier overdragen.

In this class i help students to organize their homework and help they get good prepared for exams. I find it very important to help a student with understanding the course but also to help them gain more confidence about what they can. Math, Physics and Chemistry are all Beta subjects. I focus on really understanding the courses instead of learning you a trick. It’s also about a lot of practicing with those subjects. I also give History. It’s important to understanding connections between events and why people choose to act in a certain way.

In mathematics, you can learn basic geometry, and algebra, and progress to the level of applied mathematics, including calculus, differential equations, and more.

Similarly, in physics, you can expect to cover topics ranging from the fundamentals to advanced levels. As I hold a degree in Mechanical Engineering, I can provide assistance in engineering subjects such as heat transfer, thermodynamics, and more.

Furthermore, I have a master's degree in Photovoltaic Systems (solar energy), so I can offer guidance and help in this field as well.

Mathematics, physics and arithmetic are subjects that many people have difficulty with. I believe that with good guidance, anyone can get a good grade for these subjects. During the lessons we look at what the stumbling points are, which I will then explain in the best possible way what is clearest for the student. Exact subjects can be made much easier by applying handy tricks. During the lessons I will convey this in the clearest possible way. Everyone thinks differently and I take that into account. Together we will see what works best for you!

Working with numbers can be a lot of fun and I would like to pass that on to others!

-- Tutor For High School / IB and University Students --

I am a Maths and Physics Tutor with over 8 years of experience tutoring teenagers, students and young adults. After having received a bachelor in Aerospace Engineering and Philosophy & Mathematics, I am now doing research at the University of Cambridge in the field of AI. Because of this, I am only able to give online classes.

My teaching is based on a principles of compassion, understanding and personalisation. I believe that every student is different and that for every student a tailor-made approach is required to create the perfect lesson. After all, each of us retains information in a different way. For some, visual learning is crucial, while for others simply talking through the problem can be enough. That is why I use my five years of experience in tutoring to gauge what the student exactly needs and how the student can fully understand the problem. Not only does the student become better at the subject they're being tutored, but they also become a better problem solver in general. A skill which they can apply throughout their entire life.

Are you having trouble with physics in high school? My name is Casper and I'm here to help!

In my lessons we focus on your specific challenges. Whether it concerns (quantum) mechanics, electromagnetism, optics, or something else, together we will delve deeper into what YOU do not understand.

I have experienced during my studies that you understand material best when you start with the points you do not understand. With the help of useful examples and analogies, we can then start to build a better understanding of the subject.

Creating a good foundation for the exact courses is useful for everyone. It is especially essential that the teacher is skilled and didactic in building the knowledge. I myself experienced that this was missing when I transferred from MBO level 2 to a Ph.D in physics at the University of Amsterdam.

I would like to make a difference and send you on your way with a dose of self-confidence to the wonderful world of mathematics, physics and astronomy. For all secondary school levels and higher education, I can guide you with a plan to increase your knowledge and get the best out of yourself for both tests, exams and exams and deepening out of interest.
