Nahia Gaston,
General and English review classes. Specialized in scientific subjects within the general review.
Hello! I am Nahia, a third-year medical student with a passion for teaching. I have the skills to explain scientific and technical topics clearly and effectively, adapting the content to the student's needs. My experience in preparing for official exams, such as Cambridge (B2 and C1), has led me to develop specific strategies to improve key skills such as speaking, oral fluency and confidence in exam situations, and I have guided students in test simulations to familiarize them with official formats and times. I also have experience in teaching classes in the scientific field, from mathematics to biology. My classes can be done online if the situation requires it.

María José Villamizar
Hello, I am a teacher of primary school children, a pleasure.
I am a private teacher for children in primary school or lower grades. I speak native Catalan, Spanish and English at an intermediate level. As for the type of subject to be covered, it can be any, but it is necessary that you provide me with the syllabus to be able to prepare the class in advance. Classes can be in person or digital.

Mathe. Chemistry. Physik. Präzision aus Bern – Für deinen Erfolg im Schweizer Bildungssystem.
Mathematics, Chemistry and Physics – clear knowledge, personal knowledge Ich bin Kian, erfahrener Nachhilfelehrer aus Bern, und unterstütze Schüler: innen und students auf allen Stufen – von Sek I and Sek II bis hin zu Passerelle, IB, Universität und dem Schweizer Maturitätslevel. With meiner strukturierten, verständlichen und motivierenden Herangehensweise helfe ich dir nicht nur, bessere Noten zu erreichen – sondern auch, die Zusammenhänge wirklich zu verstehen. Mein Unterricht is individuall, effizient and auf Augenhöhe. 📘 Was du über mich wissen solltest: Ich unterrichte in Bern and habe den MAS-Studengang in Statistical Data Science at the Universität Bern erfolgreich abgeschlossen – mit einem starken Schwerpunkt auf Mathematik, Statistik und analytischem Denken. Seit mehreren Jahren gebe ich mit Begeisterung Nachhilfe – insbesondere in den naturwissenschaftlichen Fächern, in denen viele oft den Anschluss verlieren. Gerade in Mathematik, Chemie and Physik geht es oft um Structures, Logik and das Verständnis von Zusammenhängen – genau diese Leidenschaft bringe ich in meinen Unterricht ein. Ich combiniere fachliche Tiefe mit didaktischem Feingefühl – sodass selbst komplexe Inhalte greifbar und nachvollziehbar werden. ✅ We have already seen the following instructions: Einzelunterricht, der sich an deinem Tempo und deinen Zielen orientiert Unterstützung für alle Stufen – Sek I, Sek II, Passerelle, IB, Universität & more Klarer Fokus auf den Schweizer Lehrplan – including cantonal Anforderungen Modern Didaktik & echte Aha-Momente statt trockenem Auswendiglernen Langfristige Lernstrategien für nachhaltigen Erfolg Flexible Unterricht in Bern oder online – zuverlässig, personal & effektiv 💬 Why learn from me? We do not know what to do with it – its structure, structure and motivation. Ich nehme mir Zeit, Inhalte so zu vermitteln, dass sie wirklich hängen bleiben – verständlich, logisch und auf deine Situation zugeschnitten. Bei mir geht es nicht darum, „irgendwie durchzukommen“ – sondern darum, sicherer zu werden, tiefer zu verstehen – and dabei oldeicht sogar Freude an Mathe, Chemie oder Physik zu entwickeln. Gute Nachhilfe ist keine Notlösung – sie ist ein echter Neustart. Wenn du bereit bist, besser zu verstehen, bin ich bereit, dich zu begleiten.

Maths, Physics, Computer Science: Coaching, homework help - exam preparation
My classes cover all levels from primary to upper secondary. It's important to ensure continuity with your child's teacher's course. Therefore, I will only use my course if necessary. It's important not to duplicate the documents in order to simplify things. 1 + 1 will always equal 2. Theory is the foundation, but practice is essential. Examples are very important for understanding mathematical, physics, and computer science concepts. That's why each theorem will be followed by an example and several exercises. The number of steps will depend on the student's level. Their intelligence has nothing to do with it; it's their motivation and self-confidence that drive their success. I'll give them what they need to assimilate at their own pace all the concepts that school requires them to master. It's also important to have a methodology. By breaking down difficult concepts into simpler ones, we obtain building blocks that simply need to be assembled to understand the entire problem. Teachers neglect this aspect and don't revisit concepts they think they've learned, which is why many students drop out of school. Mathematics is also used in other subjects. It is perfectly possible to cover concepts used in physics, chemistry, or economics if necessary. I also teach courses in these disciplines. I prefer distance learning to avoid travel. However, sometimes students or parents may want me to travel to the area. This is possible after the first class, in the Brussels area.

Othmani
Math, physical science or chemistry courses....
The specialized mathematics course in high school aims to develop students' reasoning, analytical, modeling, and abstraction skills. It is based on a foundation of theoretical knowledge and its application in real-life situations. Do you want to progress, gain a deeper understanding, gain confidence, and achieve excellent results in mathematics and physics? Then my courses are for you. During our sessions, each concept is explained in a simple and logical way, with concrete examples and progressive exercises to master each step. I adapt to your pace, your level and your objectives. Whether you need to review the basics or to deepen to aim for excellence, you will find support that meets your needs. Together we will develop your logic, your autonomy and your analytical skills.
