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

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 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, Maturity 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 memorization. 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, organize 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.

Hello!

I am a student in the last year of a Bachelor in life science at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology in Lausanne and I am offering to help understand the fascinating world of science!

The scientific branches and particularly mathematics and physics can represent a challenge during the school learning of the pupil. Often, classical teaching methods may not be suitable for some students who, therefore, risk developing deficiencies in these branches, accompanied by demotivation and fears regarding these subjects. For me, this is regrettable and from my experience, I am convinced that an approach centered on the student and his specific needs allows to improve this perception and to increase the self-confidence of my students.

In my courses, I propose to help pupils and students who do not feel comfortable or wish to improve themselves with these themes through three points of approach:
- The explanation of the subject by restating the theory and by concentrating on the comprehension thanks to explanations, numerous examples as well as a simplification of the concepts difficult to comprehend.
- Exercise assistance, which teaches methods of resolution that can allow students to feel more comfortable in front of statements and to increase their speed in dealing with specific cases. There is rarely only one method to understand and solve the exercises, if some are more effective than others, for me, it is especially important to find the one that will best suit the student's affinities.
- Finally, I suggest going back to the basics necessary for understanding the subjects discussed in class. Sometimes, some students have gaps at this level, which hinders the learning of current subjects. By paying particular attention to this point, the support is adapted in the long term so that the pupil can then apprehend the new subjects without experiencing comprehension problems due to basic knowledge not acquired or insufficiently mastered.

My level also allows me to help first-year students and future students wishing to integrate a course containing basic sciences such as those of EPFL.

Do not hesitate to contact me with any questions, I would answer you with great pleasure!

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.
