About Me

I’m teaching physics, math and chemistry because I like them. I dedicate all my time to understand them a bit more. My first education was chemical engineering and after then, I decided to study physics in Geneva. So I have a degree in chemical engineering and a Master degree in Quantum Matter Physics and I’m a PhD student in nano optics.

I like teaching and I find it challenging because in a one-to-one lesson the point is not the topics but the student. It’s important find a way to communicate the knowledge and it’s not the same for all the people.

I’m also a dad and I learn every day the best approach to catch the interest of a student

Physics, Mathematics & Chemistry — University Teacher and PhD Researcher

43 £ /h

I am a physicist and PhD researcher at the University of Geneva, with several years of experience teaching physics at university level and providing private tutoring in physics, mathematics and chemistry.

My academic background includes degrees in Physics and Solid-State Physics, as well as a background in Industrial Chemistry. This allows me to teach science subjects from secondary-school level up to university courses, while adapting the level of explanation to each student.

I can help with:

* Physics: mechanics, electricity and magnetism, waves, optics, thermodynamics, modern physics and introductory quantum physics
* Mathematics: algebra, functions, calculus, trigonometry, vectors and problem solving
* Chemistry: general chemistry, physical chemistry and introductory university chemistry
* IB, Maturité and international-school programmes
* University physics and mathematics courses
* Exam and mock-exam preparation
* Revision of previous-year material
* Homework, exercises and problem-solving techniques

My approach is based on understanding rather than memorisation. I first identify where the difficulty comes from, then rebuild the relevant concepts step by step before applying them to exercises and exam-style problems.

Because I also teach university students, I place particular emphasis on developing a clear method: how to interpret a problem, identify the relevant physical principles, organise a calculation and check whether the final result makes sense.

Lessons can be adapted either for students who are struggling and need to rebuild their foundations, or for stronger students preparing for demanding exams and advanced courses.

I teach in English, French and Italian.

Online lessons and in-person lessons in the Geneva area are available.
