Support courses in mathematics and science (exam preparation, university entry, etc.)

From 43 £ /h

I offer support courses in mathematics or science. The idea is to work to achieve an objective with the student: preparation for a test, maturity, entry to EPFL or UNIL, etc...
Depending, I would suggest reviewing concepts and doing exercises that I would suggest.

I am a student at EPFL in the fifth year of chemical and biotechnological engineering. I graduated with a French scientific baccalaureate with a specialty in physics and chemistry. I have already given math, physics and chemistry lessons regularly for several years. My goal is to put the student at ease and to encourage him. During my lessons, I usually do exercises with the students because they allow them to better understand the theory of the course by applying it. I can give lessons from the beginning of secondary school until maturity in mathematics.

Master student at EPFL, I would be happy to help you (you or your child) for the subjects where you have difficulties! At university, I have been an assistant in Chemistry for the first years of EPFL for a few years as well as for a course linking mathematics and electronics, called Signals and Systems. So I am used to teaching and explaining concepts to students with difficulties. I also give private lessons to students passing the Swiss maturity or the French baccalaureate. To try to see together the difficulties as well as the misunderstandings: we go back to the lesson together, we do an exercise together and then I let the student do it independently and we review together if he is blocked or if we need to correct.
I would be delighted to be able to help you in all matters, both scientific and literary! :)

I am passionate about teaching mathematics, physics and French, and I want to share this passion with you by offering you private lessons. Having a solid understanding of these subjects, I am confident that I can help you achieve your academic goals.

What sets my classes apart is my flexibility. Whether you prefer to work online, comfortably from home, or in person at your home, or mine, I adapt to your needs. My teaching approach goes beyond just teaching, as I am committed to providing tips, clear summaries, and ongoing support. I understand that academic success requires more than theoretical knowledge, which is why I provide you with additional resources to strengthen your understanding and help you excel.

In addition to the courses, I offer you the opportunity to contact me at any time for additional questions or clarifications. My goal is to create a dynamic, interactive learning environment that is conducive to your success. Together we can overcome academic challenges and enable you to reach your full potential.

Please feel free to contact me to discuss your specific needs and how I can help you excel in your studies. I am excited to work with you and contribute to your academic success.

I love teaching and have always enthusiastically helped my classmates. I have been giving private lessons since 2016 (around 25 students, including 4 for a General Physics course in propaedeutics). I am also an assistant for two courses at EPFL (3rd year Bachelor and Master levels), and I co-created and taught the EPFL Advanced Analysis course (for mathematicians and physicists) during the week welcoming new students.

I then strive to transmit my knowledge and my passion for the subject to my students, at a pace adapted to their needs. I think that students who take private lessons have a sincere desire to overcome their difficulties, and that we must therefore pay particular attention to encouraging them. It is therefore step by step that I help them understand the material, by developing their intuition of the different concepts covered while ensuring that they fill in their gaps. My students appreciate my clarity, structure, motivation, patience and flexibility.

If you or your child has difficulty with mathematics, do not hesitate to contact me for more information about my courses.

Exam preparation — Effective and personalized private lessons
As a student at EPFL (Communication Sciences), I offer targeted support to help you succeed in your exams: mathematics, science, revision methodology.
What I offer:

Quick diagnosis of your weaknesses, tailored summary sheets, corrected sample exercises, effective memorization methods, stress management before the test.
For whom: secondary school students, gymnasium students, or university students in science/engineering.
Why me? My atypical academic background (medicine, biology, engineering) allows me to explain the same concept in multiple ways until it "clicks" for you. My teaching is patient, structured, and results-oriented.
Available in person (Lausanne area) or online. Initial consultation to define your needs.

I recently graduated with a Master's degree in Mathematics from EPFL, where I also worked as a student assistant for 4 years, notably for the CMS (Special Mathematics Course), the MAN (Upgrade), as well as for several first-year Bachelor's courses. I also served as a corrector for multiple exam sessions and wrote a handout for a course for Master's students in Mathematics at EPFL. Through these experiences, I had the opportunity to support many students in successfully completing their first year, often considered one of the most demanding.

Today, I offer private math lessons for all levels, from compulsory school to the federal maturity, as well as for Bachelor students needing support in subjects with a strong mathematical component.

Passionate about teaching, what I appreciate above all is seeing students' progress, their confidence and their growing understanding. My methodology is based on an intuitive understanding of concepts, through simple and clear examples, as well as structured support in reasoning. I place particular emphasis on solving exercises, because it is through regular practice that we consolidate our knowledge and truly progress in mathematics.

I am a PhD student at EPFL, and I have been teaching mathematics and physics/chemistry for several years now. I was accepted to MIT, the best school in the world, and I was also accepted to Oxford and Cambridge.

Often students learn, but do not know the correct techniques to apply to exercises; I will show the student how to properly understand and solve the exercises.

As a Master's student at EPFL, I offer support and enrichment courses in mathematics, physics, biology and chemistry for students in the orientation cycle, gymnasium and for Bachelor level students.

In mathematics, we can work on algebra, functions, trigonometry, probabilities, analysis as well as differential and integral calculus depending on the level.
In physics, topics include mechanics, electricity, optics, thermodynamics, and the basics of modern physics.
In biology, I offer support in cell biology, genetics, physiology and basic biochemistry.
In chemistry, we can cover stoichiometry, chemical reactions, acids and bases, thermochemistry and organic chemistry depending on the program followed.

Courses may include homework help, test and exam preparation, and preparation for the Swiss high school diploma. Advanced study is also available for students wishing to pursue scientific studies.

Accustomed to the academic requirements of EPFL, I ensure that I offer structured, progressive support tailored to the needs of each student in order to strengthen their confidence and autonomy.

I'm a student at HEC Lausanne and I love working with children. I'm patient, responsible, and attentive, and I always take the time to build a trusting relationship with them. I speak French and English fluently, which also allows me to help with homework in both languages. I can babysit, accompany children on school trips, and offer quiet or fun activities depending on their needs. My main goal is for children to feel safe, listened to, and to have a good time.

I offer private lessons in math, physics, chemistry, life and earth sciences and French to help students better understand their lessons, progress and gain confidence.

The sessions are tailored to each student's level and needs: reviewing difficult concepts, homework help, test/exam preparation, and practice exercises. I always try to explain things simply and clearly, using a patient and encouraging approach.

My goal is for the student to truly understand what they are doing and gradually become more independent.

Having graduated with a Master's degree in physics from EPFL, specializing in astrophysics, I offer private tutoring in mathematics and physics for secondary school students, gymnasium students and students at the beginning of higher education.

I have several years of experience in teaching: assistant in mechanics and thermodynamics at EPFL, private tutoring in mathematics and physics, as well as various teaching and science outreach activities.

My method

My goal is not to make people learn formulas by heart, but to make them truly understand the concepts and reasoning behind them.

My first step is to identify the problem: a poorly understood concept, weak foundations, difficulty translating a problem into equations, or simply a lack of methodology. We then reconstruct the reasoning step by step before applying it to exercises.

The goal is for the student to gradually become capable of solving problems independently, rather than mechanically reproducing a method.

I can help with, in particular:

understanding and resuming the lesson;
exercises and homework;
consolidation of the foundations;
preparation for tests, exams, maturity or baccalaureate;
methodology and problem-solving;
refresher or advanced training.

Mathematics, physics, English, and French can seem difficult without the right foundation or method. With extensive experience working with students of all ages, from young children to high school and university students, I have designed my lessons as a personalized support system, adapted to each student's level and pace.
You will solidify your foundational knowledge, fill in any gaps, better understand challenging concepts, and gain confidence and independence when tackling exercises and exams. My goal is to make each subject accessible by adapting to each student's learning style.
