** CORONAVIRUS UPDATE: Courses given online! **

I am a young doctor recently graduated in Human Medicine at the University of Geneva.

Being calm and patient in nature, I try to build trust with my students to create a more relaxed environment, conducive to exchange and therefore learning courses.

For me, the understanding of a course is mainly through a structured, imaged and especially personalized learning of different subjects to enable the student to sustainably integrate the key concepts that are useful to him.

This type of contact is very important to me and is the basis of my interest and desire to teach. I believe that academic success is, of course, through learning but above all through an educational approach that takes into account several psychosocial factors that can influence children's success through an impact on their self-esteem. In my sessions, I attach great importance to identifying these factors and valuing the efforts of my students so that they become aware of their abilities and gain self-confidence.

This course is for people of all ages and backgrounds who need tutoring or who wish to deepen their knowledge of biology / medicine.

Students and future medical students accepted for regular courses and exam preparation!

Do not hesitate to contact me, I will answer you with pleasure!

- First year student in Bioengineering at EPFL, I offer support courses for all levels in most school subjects. My goal is to allow the student to progress and to be able to make up for his / her shortcomings. I am a cheerful person, motivated, patient and understanding.

The student will choose one or more of the 4 courses offered.

This particular course is intended to help students with academic difficulties concerning the two scientific subjects: biology or chemistry, or also concerning the two languages: French (especially grammar and conjugation) or Italian (Level A1 and A2).

Being a Master student in Pharmaceutical Sciences, and knowing that the curriculum of Pharmacy studies mainly includes chemistry and biology in detail, I would be able to help students with difficulties regarding these two modules in a proper way to aim for excellence.

Also my linguistic knowledge in French, English, Arabic, and Italian, pushed me to be a source of help to students who find difficulties in French (especially Grammar and conjugation) and Italian.

I will be as always, flexible and I will respond as much as necessary to the student so that he can succeed his year by managing his stress with enthusiasm and perpetual courage.

Dear student,

I am a chemist graduated from EPFL (Swiss Federal Institute of Technology). I have always been fascinated by science and now I hold a doctorate in solid-state physics from the University of Geneva.

Science subjects can help you pass exams. I have been teaching these disciplines for many years during exercise sessions held at the University as well as in private lessons given as an independent.

For this reason, you will have the possibility to ask me for explanations on any subject. It is indeed useful that you can progress on the basis of what you already know. You will of course have the choice to ask me for remedial lessons to revise or discover entire chapters. Before the first lesson starts, I will invite you to explain your situation to me freely and free of charge so that we can work effectively from the first lesson.

All scientific subjects have in common a method that is called "scientific logic". Whenever the opportunity arises, I will offer you elements of this method because it is this method that will allow you to understand durably and to solve the exercises rigorously.

Your studies are serious business, demand that you be taken seriously.

Best regards,
Julien

The math, physics, chemistry, and SVT courses of the Swiss Maturity and Gymnasium program or French programs are given by either in-depth explanations or by a quick course and summary of essential needs according to the case of each student supported by exercises from the book or evaluations and exams from other high schools.
Special program for Maturité and Terminale students.
As well as (International and European Schools in English).
The same goes for the start of the ECUS and EPSU academic year where the pupil can follow a complete preparation.
As well as for 1st and 2nd-year university students, can take courses in Analysis - Matrices - Statistics - Algebra - Geometry - Physics - Mechanics - Electricity - Chemistry - Organic Chemistry - Biology and Geology.
My experience is too long and for years I have learned methods for each case and for each student to fill in their gaps with the best results of Excellent, Very Good, and Good as mentioned by my students.
I can also help students to better prepare for courses and support them to better prepare for the duties of CNED in science subjects.
Guaranteed response within minutes up to 10 hours maximum.

👨‍🎓 With 5 years of experience in distance and in-person teaching, I am a mathematics teacher specializing in tutoring and private lessons. I also teach physics, chemistry, and science subjects in general.

I hold a Master's degree in Operations Research (Applied Mathematics) and I have been teaching private lessons for over 5 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.🧠

💭 If you have any questions, don't hesitate to contact me ;)

I offer math, physics, and chemistry tutoring tailored to all school levels (primary, secondary, and early university). As a student at EPFL, I have a strong command of these subjects and a good understanding of academic expectations.

My goal is to help the student truly understand the concepts, not just memorize them. I explain them simply and progressively, with concrete examples, and then we work on targeted exercises to consolidate what they've learned.

I adapt to each student's level and pace, whether it's for regular support, exam preparation, or occasional help. The goal is to build confidence and independence, and to achieve lasting improvement in results.

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.
