From 48.82 £ /h

I am in my third year of mathematics at EPFL. I am available almost all week.
I am fluent in Dutch, French and English.
I already have experience with private lessons that I gave for two years in Maths, Physics, Latin, English and French to high school students. I am also an assistant in Maths (Analysis, Algebra) and Physics at EPFL for first year students. I am therefore able to give lessons / support for all levels.

About Me

I am a very methodical person: progress in the subject concerned is guaranteed.
I am always listening and I have a lot of patience with the student. I help him, but still let him think so that he or she advances as much as possible. Finally I am someone very punctual.

English, French or Dutch lessons for all levels

40.21 £ /h

I am trilingual: I was born in the Netherlands with Dutch parents, I went to English boarding school and I finished my schooling in France and I currently live in Lausanne.
I have already given French, Dutch and English lessons in Lausanne so I am experienced with this (also on Apprentus). I am able to give lessons for all levels: from beginner to very experienced. For those interested in a preparation concerning literature rather, I am also able to give lessons (I had 20/20 on my French BAC).

Hello,

A former student of EPFL (Bachelor of Life Sciences) and HEC Lausanne (Master of Management), I offer courses at primary and secondary level to best prepare you for the maturity exam or the baccalaureate.

Depending on your location, I can give online lessons, via zoom. Thanks to the feedback from several students, I was able to develop online learning methods that are as effective as in person.

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

I am a second-year master's student at EPFL, in biology. I offer support courses in mathematics, physics, chemistry and biology. The course offers a possibility of help for students having difficulties in the proposed courses. The student will find a framework where he can ask these questions, discuss methodologies and improve. Putting my knowledge at the service of other people is a plus that I like to share.

I am at your disposal if you have any further questions.

Third-year physics student at EPFL Lausanne.

The courses are aimed in particular at university students, but also at secondary school students. For those attending EPFL, I can give classes in person. Otherwise, I am also available for online courses. The topics and course delivery are agreed with the students according to their specific needs. They can include both theoretical explanations and the carrying out of practical exercises.

From my own experience, I have found that everyone can understand the most complex concepts, you just need to adopt the right approach and teaching method, which varies from person to person. As it is not always possible to make this important distinction in general courses, my intention is to provide those who need it with help in catching up with the program by filling in gaps and/or doubts. I do not favor a mnemonic approach, but rather a deep understanding of the subject.

Mathematics: Depending on your level and needs, we can review the fundamentals (calculations, fractions, equations), and delve deeper into more advanced concepts such as analysis (derivatives, integrals, sequences) or linear algebra (matrices, vector spaces). The goal is to progress effectively, whether to consolidate knowledge or prepare for exams. Physics: From school level to higher education, I can support you in the different branches of physics taught in class: mechanics, electricity, thermodynamics, optics, waves, etc. Specially skilled in mechanics, I can also delve deeper into this subject for students who need it. Courses are adapted to each student according to their level and objectives. Whether for regular monitoring, exam preparation, or one-off support, I adapt to your pace. Courses available online or in person on the EPFL campus if possible.

As a third-year Life Sciences student at EPFL, I offer math and physics-chemistry courses for students up to high school level. I earned a science baccalaureate with a specialization in mathematics and physics-chemistry, and have been giving private lessons for several years. My goal is to help each student progress methodically and confidently, in a caring environment adapted to their pace.

During the lessons, we focus on understanding key concepts, applying them through targeted exercises, and developing lasting autonomy in scientific subjects.

As a master's student in materials science at EPFL, I teach basic science courses for high school students and EPFL students.
I adapt to the student's needs to progress at a good pace, going over the basics if necessary.
I have already given numerous assistantships at EPFL and am a good teacher.

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.

Mathematical and physical concepts are often difficult to grasp immediately in class or on your own at home. That's why I offer this course as a complement to the courses given at school, at the gymnasium, or in the first year of university. The goal is to give these concepts a little more time to better understand them by having the opportunity to ask any questions that arise.

I am a second-year master's student in Data Science at EPFL.
I completed my bachelor's degree in computer science, where I studied analysis I–IV, linear algebra, probability, and stochastic processes. I also took several programming courses in the following languages: Python, C, assembler, Scala, and Java.

I have been a mathematics assistant for four years and this year I am also a programming assistant at EPFL.
