As a student at Oxford University in Energy, with a Bachelor's degree in Mechanical Engineering, I can give tutoring at all levels (high school - university) in most scientific subjects.

In my teaching, I aim to make people understand rather than learn. This is a method that has followed me throughout my studies and has greatly facilitated my own learning. I receive very good reviews of this approach and am well motivated to share it with you!

Maths, Physics, everything to understand rather than learn!
49.78 £ /h
Can't learn formulas by heart? Do you doubt your abilities, or the logic behind it all? It's not over for you! I prefer to make people understand, rather than showing, it's all my pedagogy and how I learn every day!

Student at Oxford University, having completed a bachelor's degree at EPFL and having done the French baccalaureate with an international option, I give support classes at all levels (college, high school, university) in maths and physics. For French S baccalaureate holders, I can also give additional support courses in the other subjects of the diploma.

EPFL undergraduate average: 5.61

Hello.

I am a University of Oxford medicine graduate. I will mentor you to perform as well as possible across the board, with a focus on maths and science.

Exam results are more important than ever. The truth is that most teachers will teach in a typical way which is not conducive to actually performing as well as possible in exams across the board. The methods are too time consuming, boring and inefficient.

I will teach students to perform as well as possible in GCSE exams as quickly and efficiently as possible, regardless of your ability. I will distil the content down into the most concise, simple format and combine this with exam techniques and revision strategies which ACTUALLY WORK to help you achieve similar results in any subject.

The skills I will teach come from my own experience of achieving 14A*s at GCSE and 5A*s at A-level, even in subjects I was not good at. The skills I teach can be applied to any subject and will help you to learn faster and more efficiently.

Anyone can achieve this regardless of current academic performance. I will mentor you continuously and meet once weekly to discuss new strategies, address concerns and ensure you perform as well as possible with minimum stress.

Courses that fit your child's future!
Graduated from the Ecole Nationale des Ponts et Chaussées and LSE after following a preparatory class in Paris, I have 6 years of experience as a private teacher and tutor in mathematics and physics. My goal is to help your child reach their best level and develop effective learning methods for their future higher education.

By choosing my courses you will help your child to...

...Improve your results in mathematics/physics
...Integrate a selective course
...Regain confidence in himself and his abilities
...Get practical advice on graduate school

Over the last 6 years, I have had the privilege of supporting more than 35 middle school, high school and even prep students towards academic success. My students obtained good averages, passed the certificate, the baccalaureate and the preparatory classes, while strengthening their self-confidence.

My teaching method is based on a key element: Confidence:
Instant improvement in average by assimilating the course and preparing for evaluations via a set of revision methods (assimilation, preliminary exercises, training exercises, "blank" assignment then analysis of results)
Consolidation of this new working method thanks to newfound confidence and improvement of mathematical rigor and editorial quality
To go further: extra-curricular and fun subjects, concocted by me, allowing your child to both appreciate mathematics/physics as a game and to prepare for their future studies

In short :
One to two sessions of 1h30/2h per week to assimilate the course and prepare for the evaluations.
Courses taught face-to-face or remotely (virtual whiteboard to facilitate the assimilation of concepts).
Over 1000 online exercises to strengthen math skills.

For any questions contact me on Apprentus, and I will respond quickly.

Book today to help your child achieve remarkable results.

We will work on your understanding of the most important concepts by doing practice exercises. We will start with the easiest ones and we will gradually increase the difficulty as you progress. Additionally, we will do lots of past papers, especially if you want to prepare for a specific examination. We are going to keep track of your level and mark your improvements session by session.

During our sessions, we can focus on different areas of Maths according to your needs, from Algebra and Calculus to Statistics and Probability.
Additionally, we can work on exam taking techniques such as Time Management and how to practice effectively for an exam.
I am excited to tutor other people that want to learn Maths, because I get to share my passion for the subject while making a positive impact. To me, it is a very rewarding experience, because of the feeling of accomplishment to help others succeed.

Struggling to find a tutor who truly gets you and how you learn best? Let’s work together to discover strategies that match your interests and help you succeed!

Hey! My name is Sophie, and I’m here to help you master French and math with ease and confidence. As an MSc Management and Strategy student at LSE and a graduate of a bilingual Russian-French school, have a deep grasp of these subjects, allowing me to tailor lessons to your unique needs. I’ve had the rewarding experience of teaching extracurricular French classes to middle and high school students at my former school, and I also have experience tutoring math. Whether you're aiming to boost your conversational skills, improve grammar, or strengthen math fundamentals, my blend of subject knowledge and teaching experience will guide you on your journey to success.

My tutoring approach prioritizes patience, clarity, and a tailored teaching style that adapts to each student’s unique learning needs—whether in French or math. When tackling complex French grammar, like the distinction between passé composé and imparfait, I simplify concepts into relatable terms. For example, I liken passé composé to a snapshot—capturing completed actions, while imparfait is more like a video, showing ongoing or habitual actions. Using everyday examples like “J’ai fini mes devoirs” (I finished my homework) or “Je lisais chaque soir” (I used to read every evening), I make these tenses practical and easy to understand.

In math, I apply the same approach by breaking down complex concepts into manageable steps, layering in theory and real-life applications to build problem-solving skills progressively. My aim is to create a supportive, engaging environment where students feel comfortable asking questions, making mistakes, exploring new concepts that are not taught in school, and refining their skills in math or French.

Ultimately, I am dedicated to empowering my students to not just pass exams but to communicate confidently in French and tackle math challenges with ease, equipping them with the tools and confidence they need . Let’s embark on this learning journey together!
