The math, physics, chemistry, and SVT courses of the Swiss maturity program and gymnasium or French programs are done by either in-depth explanations or by a quick course and summary of essential needs according to the case of each student supported by exercises from the book or evaluations and exams from other high schools.
Special program for Matura and Terminales.
As well as for (students in international and European Schools in English, they can have support in Math, Physics, Chemistry and Biology).
For the start of the academic year in Switzerland, support courses for EPSU and ECUS exams.
For the first university year, support courses in Mathematics - Analysis - Matrices - Statistics - Algebra - Geometry - Physics - Mechanics - Electricity - Chemistry - Organic Chemistry - Biology, 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 can also help students to better prepare for courses and support them to better prepare for the duties of CNED in science subjects.
Guaranteed response within minutes up to 10 hours maximum.

As a dedicated tutor with over six years of experience, I specialize in teaching Mathematics, Physics, and Chemistry to students of all levels, from primary school to university. My academic background is robust, holding honors degrees from both the Faculty of Science and the Faculty of Medicine. This diverse educational experience has equipped me with a strong foundation in scientific principles and the analytical skills necessary for effective teaching. My tutoring journey began while I was still at university, where I was consistently ranked among the top of my class. This early start ignited my passion for education and set the stage for a fulfilling career in tutoring.

My teaching approach is carefully tailored to meet each student’s individual needs. I recognize that every learner has a unique style and pace, and I strive to adapt my methods accordingly. Whether a student requires in-depth explanations of complex theories or concise summaries of key concepts, I ensure that my lessons cater to their specific requirements. This flexibility allows me to build a strong foundation in core concepts while guiding students through practical problem-solving techniques that are essential for mastering the subjects.

In my lessons, I focus not only on helping students grasp the subject matter but also on developing critical thinking and analytical skills. I believe that understanding the "why" behind mathematical and scientific concepts is crucial for long-term retention and application. Therefore, I encourage students to engage in discussions, ask questions, and explore the material deeply. This interactive approach fosters a love for learning and promotes intellectual curiosity, which is vital for success in any academic endeavor.

I offer tutoring sessions in various formats to accommodate different preferences and circumstances. Students can choose in-person sessions at my location or opt for online tutoring using an interactive whiteboard and video platforms like Zoom or Skype. This modern setup provides a seamless learning experience that is just as effective as face-to-face instruction. My goal is to create an engaging and supportive environment where students feel comfortable and motivated to learn.

Over the years, I have had the privilege of witnessing many of my students achieve outstanding results, including grades of "Excellent," "Very Good," and "Good." This success is particularly rewarding when I see students who initially struggled make significant progress. By identifying and addressing their unique learning gaps, I help them develop the confidence and skills necessary to excel in their studies.

I'd like to start by greeting everyone who is reading this and then briefly discuss the teachings I'm providing. Going to medical school is a major step, and while becoming a doctor may have been a big dream of yours, things unfortunately didn't turn out the way you had hoped. You didn't receive what you eagerly want following your bac. I'm here to tell you that earning your bac is just the first step on a longer journey. You have another opportunity to fulfill your lifelong ambitions. What role do I play in this? as someone who has been in your position and ultimately obtained what I want. We will have a customized plan that fulfills your needs, we will correct any unsuccessful methods and build new ones, and I will lead you through the program at every stage.

Hi, I'm Maidi ! I'm a 3rd year medicine student aspiring to become a cardiovascular surgeon, I always have had a keen interest for biology since I was 11. I'm always very excited to share my interest and fascination with willing students by helping them form a strong foundation, building-up on said foundation and feeding their curiosity while also helping with success in their exams. I can confidently provide tutorship in English and Turkish.

My main goal for each lecture is to first make sure you are having fun learning the astonishing world of biology and second making sure you are learning with logic and understanding instead of memorizing the material given just to pass an exam. I aim to provide a safe learning environment where no question is out of bounds. I also provide with quizzes according to the topic done after the lectures in order to ensure lasting memory.

Whether you are a student wanting to perform better in an exam, a biology enthusiast which wants to start deepening their knowledge or want to pick a new learning hobby, I would be more than happy to teach and help you achieve your goals.
