Meriem
Chemistry lessons for cycle, middle school and general culture school students
I obtained my maturity in biology and chemistry option with excellent results. My goal is therefore to teach and make people love chemistry even if sometimes it seems complex. Nomenclature, organic chemistry, bases and acids, pH, solubility, oxidation-reduction all this will no longer hold any secrets for you!! (If all these terms don't mean anything to you, it doesn't matter, you still have time haha). We can understand everything with a little will and good explanations from a student who was in your place not so long ago!! Courage.

Tim
Biology and Chemistry: Secondary education - private lessons.
Need help with geography, biology or chemistry? As a civil engineer, 30, I am happy to help you! Learn at your pace and with many examples to clarify the subject matter. I have years of experience in learning simple and complex subject matter. The lessons run as follows. First, we look together for the student's biggest stumbling blocks. These can be related to the subject matter as well as to the study method. From there, I work at the pace of the student and encourage them to ask as many questions as possible. I also give tips and tricks, and improve their working methods where necessary. During the lesson I give many examples to make the subject matter more interesting and we solve exercises together. Once practiced from the lesson, I mastered challenging exercises to also test the deeper understanding of the subject matter. In this way I try to optimally prepare the student for his/her exam test. However, learning should also be enjoyable. That is why I always strive for a bond with the student through a spontaneous and positive approach. I am also very patient. All this to solve and improve the problems. Are you interested? Don't hesitate to receive me! Please come! Timo
