As an experienced teacher in the orientation cycle, I am enthusiastic about helping students organize their work by developing different learning methods.

The objective of this course is to provide a pleasant environment for students who are having difficulty at school, in order to strengthen their self-confidence and encourage them to come regularly and see their progress.

The student in difficulty needs to be accompanied in the management of his homework and his learning before being able to gain autonomy. By acquiring an organized working method and using different learning techniques, he will be able to find more fulfillment in his work.

I have experience in teaching and support classes, I appreciate the contact with the students, especially their smiles when they regain their self-confidence and feel capable of progressing.

It is a privilege to experience these moments that allow students to open up, express themselves and see new perspectives.

I am a physicist and PhD researcher at the University of Geneva, with several years of experience teaching physics at university level and providing private tutoring in physics, mathematics and chemistry.

My academic background includes degrees in Physics and Solid-State Physics, as well as a background in Industrial Chemistry. This allows me to teach science subjects from secondary-school level up to university courses, while adapting the level of explanation to each student.

I can help with:

* Physics: mechanics, electricity and magnetism, waves, optics, thermodynamics, modern physics and introductory quantum physics
* Mathematics: algebra, functions, calculus, trigonometry, vectors and problem solving
* Chemistry: general chemistry, physical chemistry and introductory university chemistry
* IB, Maturité and international-school programmes
* University physics and mathematics courses
* Exam and mock-exam preparation
* Revision of previous-year material
* Homework, exercises and problem-solving techniques

My approach is based on understanding rather than memorisation. I first identify where the difficulty comes from, then rebuild the relevant concepts step by step before applying them to exercises and exam-style problems.

Because I also teach university students, I place particular emphasis on developing a clear method: how to interpret a problem, identify the relevant physical principles, organise a calculation and check whether the final result makes sense.

Lessons can be adapted either for students who are struggling and need to rebuild their foundations, or for stronger students preparing for demanding exams and advanced courses.

I teach in English, French and Italian.

Online lessons and in-person lessons in the Geneva area are available.

I am Mavi, a physics engineer working at an aerospace company.
I have been teaching private lessons at the primary, secondary, high school, and university preparatory levels for 11 years. I teach mathematics, physics, chemistry, and science. I have a good command of the curricula of IB, IGCSE, American, Hong Kong, and international schools.

Additionally, I hold the position of president at the Astronomy Society, where I foster my students' interest in astronomy and science beyond the lessons. I prepare the learning environment by incorporating experiments and exploration, moving away from rote education. I often bring experimental materials to class, aiming to make learning memorable through hands-on experiments.

As an educational mentor, I approach my students as if they were my siblings, valuing creativity. I have a deep passion for mathematics, physics, and science. I am dedicated to helping students understand and learn because life encompasses both SCIENCE and ART. The more people I can inspire to know, understand, and love mathematics, physics, and chemistry, the more proud I am.

[Answer within the hour]. I offer math and physics lessons for all types of levels, from cycle to university.

I consider that each student is different and therefore the course of the courses may vary.

But in general, I like to review the course given by the professor, and if this one does not seem sufficient to you, I bring with me a summary of the subject. In order to discuss the theory, see if the concepts are well assimilated, because it is fundamental before doing exercises so as not to get mixed up.
I try to bring the maximum of visual representations, I personally find that we remember and understand better when we visualize what we do.

Then a lot of exercises.
Maths and physics are subjects in which it is essential to practice as much as possible in order to see "all" the scenarios and develop techniques. In the same way, we can review the exercises given in class and / or I can complete with other exercise sheets to correct.

With a doctorate in astrophysics, research at CERN and the University of Geneva, I have been teaching mathematics, physics and chemistry for over ten years, from middle school to preparatory classes, as well as in preparation for the PGA at the Faculty of Medicine of the University of Geneva.

My approach is based on intuition and deep understanding. Before applying a formula, one understands what it describes. Before using a law, one visualizes the phenomenon. Behind every struggling student, there is a specific, often long-standing, gap in knowledge that has never been identified or filled. My work begins there.

The first session is used to assess the student's level, identify any gaps in knowledge, and define their objectives, without judgment. Then we rebuild together, brick by brick, ensuring that each concept is truly understood before moving on to the next. We explore the meaning behind each concept, and that's what sticks.

For online lessons, I use a graphics tablet and an interactive whiteboard on which the student can interact in real time. Everything written is shared after each session.

I teach in French, English, and Russian.

I adapt my lessons (French, English, Russian, homework help) to each student's pace and needs. Each session begins with an assessment of what they have already learned, followed by targeted work on areas for improvement, then practical exercises and real-life scenarios. I use a variety of materials to make learning engaging and accessible. My multilingual background and experience working with children and teenagers from diverse cultural backgrounds allow me to support students from elementary to high school, including those experiencing language integration difficulties, with patience and empathy.

As a private mathematics tutor with over 10 years of experience, I support students from secondary school to pre-university level, including IB Mathematics AA/AI SL/HL, pre-IB and Swiss Maturity.

My approach prioritizes understanding and autonomy. Rather than rote learning, we work on grasping concepts, precisely identifying difficulties, and building solid mathematical reasoning. Lessons are tailored to each student's level, objectives, and learning style.

I can assist you with:
– consolidate the concepts seen in class and fill in the gaps;
– prepare for tests, exams and assessments;
– develop problem-solving methods and reasoning;
– improve examination technique and strategy;
– to progress towards greater confidence and autonomy in mathematics.

I obtained the International Baccalaureate in 2017 with 45/45, with Mathematics, Physics and Chemistry at the higher level, then went on to university studies in mathematics at the University of Edinburgh, where I obtained a Diploma of Higher Education (DipHE) in Mathematics.

Courses can be delivered in person in the Geneva region or online.

I will take note of the student's difficulties in the subject, more precisely on the subject and will issue an action plan so that he or she can better understand it.

I could thus help the student with his/her homework, prepare him/her for his/her exams, and understand his/her subjects.

I will do everything necessary and what is in my power for the success of the students who ask me and for them to be focused in their year.

For any student from primary school to the last year of the orientation cycle.

With a doctorate in astrophysics, research at CERN and the University of Geneva, I have been teaching mathematics, physics and chemistry for over ten years, from middle school to preparatory classes, as well as in preparation for the PGA at the Faculty of Medicine of the University of Geneva.

My approach is based on intuition and deep understanding. Before applying a formula, one understands what it describes. Before using a law, one visualizes the phenomenon. Behind every struggling student, there is a specific, often long-standing, gap in knowledge that has never been identified or filled. My work begins there.

The first session is used to assess the student's level, identify any gaps in knowledge, and define their objectives, without judgment. Then we rebuild together, brick by brick, ensuring that each concept is truly understood before moving on to the next. We explore the meaning behind each concept, and that's what sticks.

For online lessons, I use a graphics tablet and an interactive whiteboard on which the student can interact in real time. Everything written is shared after each session.

I teach in French, English, and Russian.

I adapt my lessons (French, English, Russian, homework help) to each student's pace and needs. Each session begins with an assessment of what they have already learned, followed by targeted work on areas for improvement, then practical exercises and real-life scenarios. I use a variety of materials to make learning engaging and accessible. My multilingual background and experience working with children and teenagers from diverse cultural backgrounds allow me to support students from elementary to high school, including those experiencing language integration difficulties, with patience and empathy.

As a private mathematics tutor with over 10 years of experience, I support students from secondary school to pre-university level, including IB Mathematics AA/AI SL/HL, pre-IB and Swiss Maturity.

My approach prioritizes understanding and autonomy. Rather than rote learning, we work on grasping concepts, precisely identifying difficulties, and building solid mathematical reasoning. Lessons are tailored to each student's level, objectives, and learning style.

I can assist you with:
– consolidate the concepts seen in class and fill in the gaps;
– prepare for tests, exams and assessments;
– develop problem-solving methods and reasoning;
– improve examination technique and strategy;
– to progress towards greater confidence and autonomy in mathematics.

I obtained the International Baccalaureate in 2017 with 45/45, with Mathematics, Physics and Chemistry at the higher level, then went on to university studies in mathematics at the University of Edinburgh, where I obtained a Diploma of Higher Education (DipHE) in Mathematics.

Courses can be delivered in person in the Geneva region or online.
