I am Mavi, a physics engineer working at an aerospace company.
I have been teaching private lessons at the primary, secondary, high school, and university preparatory levels for 11 years. I teach mathematics, physics, chemistry, and science. I have a good command of the curricula of IB, IGCSE, American, Hong Kong, and international schools.

Additionally, I hold the position of president at the Astronomy Society, where I foster my students' interest in astronomy and science beyond the lessons. I prepare the learning environment by incorporating experiments and exploration, moving away from rote education. I often bring experimental materials to class, aiming to make learning memorable through hands-on experiments.

As an educational mentor, I approach my students as if they were my siblings, valuing creativity. I have a deep passion for mathematics, physics, and science. I am dedicated to helping students understand and learn because life encompasses both SCIENCE and ART. The more people I can inspire to know, understand, and love mathematics, physics, and chemistry, the more proud I am.

Are you curious about how nature works?

Let's explore together!

Is your child struggling with physics and chemistry? Do they seem to grasp the concepts in class but then crumble when faced with exercises or exams? This is a very common situation — and entirely remediable.
With a PhD in Physics (University of Paris XI) and over 18 years of experience teaching in the French education system, I tutor students from 9th to 12th grade in physics and chemistry. I have a thorough understanding of the curriculum, the requirements of the Brevet and Baccalaureate exams, and the most common mistakes that result in lower scores.
What I propose:
— Targeted refresher course focusing on poorly understood concepts
— Methodology for quickly gaining points on exams
— Preparation for the brevet and baccalaureate (including the specialization)
— Personalized monitoring, adapted to the pace and level of each student
The lessons are 100% online (via Zoom or Google Meet), which allows me to support students anywhere — France, Belgium, Switzerland, Canada, and Tunisia. No need to travel; we work from your home, at times that suit you.

First assessment session offered to jointly identify gaps and build an effective work plan.

Contact me to book your first session.

I offer clear, structured tutoring in Mathematics, Chemistry, and Physics, supporting students with both content mastery and exam success at Advanced Subsidiary and Advanced Level (AS and A-Level), for both Edexcel and Cambridge. My lessons focus on clear explanations and the core ideas behind each topic, so things actually make sense.

For exam preparation, I shift focus to exam technique: you'll learn how mark schemes work, how answers are graded, and how to phrase responses clearly so you don’t lose marks because of wording, even when you know the content.

have graduated with a degree in chemical engineering from the University of Edinburgh, UK. I am also an Erasmus Mundus scholar with a master's in Analytical Chemistry from Uppsala University. Currently, I am pursuing a PhD in physical chemistry.

I have been tutoring since 2012 to fund my education expenses. I formally began tutoring in 2014 as part of my vocational training as a teacher in Ghana, funded by the University of Edinburgh. The formal training has taught me a lot about curriculum development, time management, and fusing my teaching methodology to my students’ needs. I have been tutoring in Physics, Chemistry, and Math, in person and online; the hybrid model has allowed me to reach out and teach students in 8 different countries. I have successful students from these past nine years who have not only commended my work ethic but can also stand testament to my enthusiasm.

My excellent academic career has nurtured in me a natural talent for teaching. My experiences have taught me how to tackle one problem at a time, and I believe that using this approach—paired with my unconventional examples that force students to think outside the box—I can truly provide an excellent understanding and explanation. My teaching methodology is based on two main things: skill development and adaptation. Initially, I create a skeleton of the most suitable methodology tailored to the preferred curriculum, after which, I adapt that lecture to the specific needs of the student based on their knowledge and grasp of the concepts. Second, I like to develop analytical and scientific ability along with knowledge in my students, and for that, I use a combination of resources in the form of worksheets, class tasks, and past papers. Last, I believe in the strong ethic of providing feedback to the parents, so that they are aware of their child’s progress.

Frequently Asked Questions:
Which subject(s) do you teach?
I teach math, mechanics, statistics, chemistry and physics. I also teach biology up to GCSE level.

When are you available? My timetable is quite flexible. I am happy to work weekdays, week evening and weekends.

Which ages and levels do you teach? The majority of my students are between the ages of 10-18, but I also teach college Students. I am also helping foundation and first year university students.

Which qualifications do you prepare your students for? GCSE, o-level, A/S-level, A-level, IB, School entrance exams and SATs

Describe your arrangements for online tutoring? I use Zoom online sessions since it has many tools and features specially designed for interactive and visual learning. I am fully equipped with modern gadgets for e-learning. I use Google drive and docs to share files.

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.
