When I was a young child, I believed I was not a mathematical person.

It wasn't until I met an amazing teacher at age 15 that I discovered my mathematical genius and my life was changed forever.

I'm eternally grateful to that teacher.

My teacher knew that self-image and self-belief is the key to unlocking your child's mathematical abilities.

Everyone is good at maths, but we all have different styles of thinking.

Bad teachers teach every child the same way.

My job is to find your child's style of mathematics and allow him to discover that for himself.

When he discovers that, he will begin to enjoy the beauty and power of mathematics

...and then you will see as the grades begin to soar.

Renzo Diaz — IB Math (AA/AI) and Physics (SL/HL) tutor, online in CET. Teaching IB one-to-one since April 2016. M.Sc., Politecnico di Milano.

Ten years teaching IB Math and Physics one-to-one, every lesson myself, and I publish the results I can prove:
• a final 7 in IB Physics SL (May 2025, from a 3, the first exam session of the new syllabus)
• a final 6 in IB Math AI HL (May 2025, from a 4)
• Grade 7 in both IB Math AI SL exam papers (May 2024, from a 3)

How I teach: bring the question your child keeps getting wrong. I find the first step that isn't reliable — a missing concept, a misread graph, an algebra slip — rebuild the explanation around how your child thinks, then change the question to check the fix holds. Each week starts from what is live at school and last week's wrong answers.

IB Mathematics: Analysis and Approaches (AA) — algebra, functions, calculus and proof, Paper 1 without a calculator and, at HL, Paper 3. Applications and Interpretation (AI) — modelling, statistics and the graphic display calculator. AA or AI, SL or HL: I help families decide from the university courses the student is aiming at.

IB Physics, SL and HL, on the current guide: the five themes, Papers 1A, 1B and 2, data-based questions, uncertainties and graphs; at HL, the extensions and the long extended-response questions. My engineering training (M.Sc., Politecnico di Milano) shows in how I teach it: define the system, state the assumptions, then connect the model to the mathematics.

The IA and the Extended Essay: guidance only, within the IB's academic-integrity rules — the student writes every word.

I have worked for 6 years now with kids from international schools who were "hating" maths because the methods used by their IB teachers were too complicated and hard to understand.

I believe that no one is "not mathematical", we just have to find the way to approach the subject together; I have indeed a few teaching methods that can be adapted to a kids' needs, I believe every kid needs a different method to fully understand the subject.

I provide 3 types of lessons that represent 3 phases:
1. THEORY - Understanding the theory behind the exercises, this phase is the shortest since I believe that to fully understand maths you need to exercise.
2. EXERCISES - Doing exercises divided by subject we. just went through in the theory part.
3. PAST PAPERS - Going through past papers to "simulate" a potential exam.

Dividing the process in 3 phases has proven really effective in succeeding not only during the year but also at the final exams.

My name is Sebastião and I am an International Master's Student in POLIMI from Portugal.

Speaking languages is a necessity in our daily lives. I am fluent in English ( C2 Proficiency Cambridge Certificate) and Portuguese (my native language). My method of teaching will be based on interactive and creative lessons. I want my students to feel as if time is flying during our lessons, since I personally feel that the best way to learn starts by having fun and a natural curiosity.

I am also a Mechanical Engineering student. I am capable of teaching topics related to Mathematics and Physics/Chemistry since both of these not only are of my interest but also are areas of my university studies. I would like to share my passion about these topics and explain the in a simple manner, integrating them with our daily lives.

Currently I work as a math teacher in an international school. I’ve been teaching and tutoring math for more than 7 years, starting back when I was studying Civil Engineering for my bachelor’s degree. Over time, I realized that teaching math is what I truly enjoy, and it has become my main focus.

My approach is straightforward: I make sure students really understand the basics first, because that’s the key to handling more difficult topics later on. I’ve seen how much confidence this gives students, and it’s something I always try to build in my lessons.

I’ve worked with students from international schools as well as those preparing for exams, and I’ve helped many of them improve their grades and raise their SAT Math scores. I try to adapt my lessons to each student’s needs and make math feel logical and approachable, not overwhelming.

At the end of the day, I love being a math teacher and helping students see that math can actually be simple once it “clicks.”

I promote independent progress through practical exercises, methodological advice and regular follow-up.

Before/After the lesson:
To maximize effectiveness, sessions are prepared in advance with the student. This preparation includes creating materials for the lesson, outlining the key moments of the session, and monitoring the student's progress.

During the lesson:
The beginning is dedicated to reviewing previous concepts and verifying prior knowledge. Next, time is devoted to understanding new concepts, which will be tested through appropriate exercises. Finally, the correction of these exercises will allow for an assessment of the student's progress.

Having coached 100+ students from more than 10 universities worldwide, I have developed a strong understanding of the homework expectations, assessment methods, and exam styles commonly used in university-level mathematics courses.

One of the biggest challenges students face in university calculus is the transition from high school mathematics. Differences in curriculum, notation, problem-solving approaches, and calculator usage can create significant knowledge gaps that make it difficult to keep up with the course material.

I help students identify and close these gaps by strengthening the underlying mathematical foundations and developing the skills required for success in higher education. Whether you are struggling with prerequisites, falling behind in lectures, or aiming for top grades, lessons are tailored to your specific needs and course requirements.

I provide comprehensive support in Calculus I, II, and III, including:

- Limits and continuity
- Differentiation and applications of derivatives
- Integration techniques and applications
- Sequences and series
- Multivariable calculus
- Partial derivatives and multiple integrals
- Vector calculus and related topics

I can help you understand assignments and prepare for exams, build the confidence and understanding needed to excel throughout your university studies.

When I interviewed with Optiver, Flow Traders, DRW, Maven Securities and All Options, I prepared seriously. At my desk I could solve the probability questions and the mental maths without much trouble. In the real interview, with someone watching and the clock running, I got nervous and made mistakes I normally wouldn't. Looking back, what I needed wasn't more theory. I needed practice under real conditions, with someone telling me exactly where I went wrong.

That's what these sessions are for.

Each session is a mock interview in the style used by the major market making firms, followed by detailed feedback. We work on:

Mental maths under time pressure
Probability and expected value questions
Market making games: quoting a two-sided market, updating as new information arrives, managing your position
Betting and decision games
Estimation questions
Explaining your reasoning out loud, clearly and calmly
Behavioural questions like "why trading?" and "why this firm?"

How a session works

A short warm-up, then a mock interview at real pace. After that we go through it together: where you lost time, where your reasoning wasn't clear, how you handled pressure, and what to drill before the next session. You leave with a concrete list of things to work on, not just a score.

If you're earlier in your preparation, we can start with the foundations and build up to full mocks.

Who it's for

Students and recent graduates applying for trader and trading internship roles at market making and prop trading firms.
