Do you have a second session, do you want to advance or deepen your knowledge? I teach mainly during the summer holidays. My classes are aimed at students in primary school, humanities, or bachelor's degrees at university/college. I have been giving private lessons for several years and have been a university tutor. The class begins by setting the student's expectations: do they want help solving exercises, is there a problem understanding? I favor examples during my explanations to provide more concrete information. I can also prepare additional exercises when I see it is necessary or when the student requests it.

Need help with maths or biology?
As a biomedical scientist with a PhD in Medicine and Health Sciences, I enjoy helping students of all ages to better understand the material and learn with greater confidence. We work at your own pace and in a way that suits your learning style.

How does a lesson work?
In the first session, we identify the main difficulties together. From there, we build up step by step. I encourage questions and provide practical tips and strategies to make studying more effective.

We work through exercises together, discuss examples, and then move on to more challenging problems to deepen understanding. This approach ensures you’re well prepared for your tests and exams.

A positive learning experience
Learning should be enjoyable. With a patient, motivating and clear approach, I create a relaxed environment where it’s okay to make mistakes, and no question is too much to ask — because that’s how real learning happens.

Interested?
Feel free to get in touch for more information or to arrange your first lesson. I’ll be happy to help you move forward!

Hello! My name is Tibo and I tutor chemistry, biology, and molecular biology to secondary school students and those starting higher education.

I graduated as a laboratory technician and have gained experience in microbiological and molecular laboratory environments. As a result, I can not only explain scientific subject matter theoretically but also apply it practically.

During the tutoring sessions, I help students with subjects such as chemical reactions, basic biology, cell biology, molecular biology, DNA and PCR techniques, genetics, cell cultures, and sterile working. Lab-related skills such as pipetting, making dilutions, concentration calculations, lab exercises, and understanding or writing reports can also be covered extensively.

My focus is primarily on truly understanding the subject matter, so that students do not merely memorize procedures but also gain insight into why things happen and how processes are interconnected.

Are you having difficulties in biology or science, or do you simply want to better understand the subject matter and improve your results?

I offer private lessons tailored to primary and secondary school students, with a simple, progressive and personalized approach.

The goal is not just to learn the material by heart, but above all to understand it so that it can be easily reused during exercises, tests and exams.

Depending on the student's needs, we can work on:

- understanding of the concepts seen in class;
- exercises and homework;
- preparing for tests and exams;
- the refresher course;
- the working method and memorization;
- the specific difficulties encountered by the student.

Each lesson is tailored to the student's level and pace. I take the time to identify any difficulties in order to create a truly personalized learning experience.

Whether it's to catch up, prepare for an exam or simply gain self-confidence, the goal is to enable the student to make lasting progress.
