Math (Calculus, Linear Algebra) and Theory of structures (Static, Stenghts of materials, structural analysis) for engineering students

From 22 £ /h

I am Ph and civil engineer, and I am well aware of the frustration of not achieving the desired academic results. I find it very satisfying to teach and to see how my students achieve their goals. I sincerely believe that learning is a privilege and a pleasure. It is my top priority that my students feel this.
My level of mathematics, physics and engineering is very competent. Although of course, for very specific topics or doubts, I will have to analyze whether I am able to teach lessons with ease or not. Do not hesitate to write to me.
I am used to working with people of different ages.
My teaching methodology:
I explain the concepts interactively, including practical examples and answering the student's questions. I guide him in the assimilation and synthesis of the different techniques

Seven years of experience in the mission of providing academic support to students in ESO or Bachillerato (Science or Social Sciences), university students in the first year and students of the IGCSE, Alevel and IB programs (Ed Excel or Cambridge),
In addition to the classes themselves, I offer permanent online support for students' queries via WhatsApp (especially important during study periods prior to exams), guidance in the use of technological tools (programs, videos or web pages) that can contribute to improving the student's training in Mathematics. We educate to train the student in Mathematics.
University courses I have recently supported include Business Mathematics for students at IE Business School, Rey Juan Carlos University, European University of Madrid, CUNEF, and Carlos III University. I also provide support for programs in Probability and Statistics, Financial Mathematics, and Mathematical Programming (experience with students from the School of Economics at the Autonomous University of Madrid). My hourly rate decreases as the session length increases. The most cost-effective rate is for a two-hour session.

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.

Hi! Welcome! I am a Ph.D. researcher in Physics at the University of Cologne, Germany. Recently, I graduated from the University of Groningen in the Netherlands with a Master's degree in Nanoscience (w/ cum Laude). I offer private tutoring (for high school and/or university-level students) so you can understand the fundamental concepts and excel in your studies. I have teaching experience of 5+ years in Physics and Mathematics to both high school and university-level students.

This class aims to provide an overview of calculus and linear algebra and focuses on the fundamental mathematical tools and concepts, such as limits, differentiation, and integration. Building on these basic concepts, we will review methods for solving problems related to optimization, linear differential equations, and matrix algebra.

Outline of the course:
1. Calculus:
1.1 Limits of functions
1.2 Continuity, types of discontinuities, intermediate value theorem
1.3 Differentiation (or derivative), slope, secant, tangent
1.4 Rules and theorems for differentiation, power rule, product rule, chain rule
1.5 Derivatives of exp, log, and trigonometric functions
1.6 Implicit differentiation and derivative of inverse functions
1.7 Rolle's theorem, mean value theorem, critical point, maximum/minimum of a function
1.8 First and second derivative tests, inflection points
1.9 Anti-derivative, indefinite integral, integration by substitution, integration by parts
1.10 Definite integral and its application (area between curves, application in physics)\
1.11 Optimization and linear differential equations

2. Linear Algebra:
2.1 Vectors and scalars in Euclidean space, vector arithmetic, scalar product, cross product
2.2 Equations for lines and planes, vector spaces, linear independence, span, basis, dimension

Do you feel that your child is working hard in mathematics, but their results are not improving?

He understands the lesson, but doesn't know how to start an exercise?
He knows the formulas, but doesn't know when or how to use them?
Does he lack a solid foundation, accumulate difficulties from one chapter to the next, or lose confidence as soon as an exercise becomes more complex?
Does he have difficulty organizing his work, reasoning, or writing his solutions correctly?
Or perhaps he is preparing for an exam, the Brevet or the Baccalaureate, and doesn't know how to prepare effectively?

It is precisely in these difficulties that I can support him.

I am a mathematics teacher with 13 years of teaching experience, holding a Master's degree in mathematics and trained at ENSET Mohammedia. I tutor middle and high school students, particularly in the Moroccan and French curricula.

🎯 My goal: to understand the difficulty before trying to fix it

Not every student has the same problem.

Some have gaps in their basic knowledge.
Others understand the lesson but lack a method.
Some people know how to solve classic exercises but get stuck as soon as the problem statement changes.
Others primarily need to regain confidence and learn to work in a more organized way.

That's why I'm not simply suggesting we redo the course.

During the initial sessions, I identify the student's difficulties and the concepts that need reinforcement. We then create a learning plan tailored to their level, pace, and objective.

📚 How does my support work?

Depending on the student's needs, we can work on:

• understanding the course material and difficult concepts;
• the upgrading and the accumulated gaps;
• the method for solving the exercises;
• mathematical reasoning;
• drafting and presenting solutions;
• progressive exercises adapted to the student's level;
• homework and tests;
• preparation for the Brevet and the Baccalaureate;
• exam preparation;
• Work organization and priority management.

I adapt to the student's pace: the goal is not simply to give them the answer, but to allow them to understand, reason and gradually become autonomous.

💻 Truly interactive online courses

The classes are conducted remotely using Google Meet and an interactive whiteboard.

The student can follow the explanations, participate directly, solve the exercises with me and receive materials or screenshots of the work done during the session.

I favour a clear, progressive and interactive teaching method, with plenty of practice.

🏆 A concrete experience of academic support

During my years of teaching, I have worked with students of very different profiles and levels.

For my final year students who were tutored in mathematics, I achieved a 100% success rate in the Baccalaureate, with 75% obtaining a distinction of "Bien" or "Très Bien".

My goal, however, is not solely to obtain a better grade in the short term: I am primarily seeking to gradually eliminate the obstacles that prevent the student from progressing.

👨‍🎓 For which students?

• Middle school: 5th, 4th, 3rd grade
• High school: 10th, 11th, 12th grade
• Moroccan and French programs
• Mathematics specialization at the French high school
• Refresher course
• Regular support
• Preparation for tests and exams
• Preparation for the Brevet and Baccalaureate exams

The courses are designed for both students who are experiencing difficulties and those who wish to consolidate their level and aim for better results.

📩 You don't know exactly why your child is struggling with math?

You can describe his level, his current difficulties and his goal in your message.

I can tell you which points we should work on as a priority and suggest a suitable support method.

My goal is simple: to transform difficulties into skills and help the student gradually regain confidence in their mathematical abilities.

I work with two kinds of students: those preparing to meet university math admission requirements (OMPT, CCVX, VWO), and those already enrolled who need solid support in calculus, linear algebra, differential equations, probability & statistics, or discrete math including students at TUM, ETH Zurich, TU Delft, KTH, EPFL, and RWTH Aachen.
Lessons are in English; I can explain in German where it helps.

Math, calculus and physics can sometimes be overwhelming, especially when the theory or solving method is unclear. I am a cum laude Aerospace Engineering graduate from TU Delft and have helped other pupils with their problems since 2017. With my calm and stepwise explanation, a second alternative view of the solution procedure is given, which is often what is missing. I tutor a variety of math and physics courses on both secondary and high school levels, but also at a scientific bachelor level. These can either be theory/exercise-based, but also exam preparation.

As a physics major, I have already seen my fair share of math and science. Therefore I choose to make myself available to help those in need. When I was in school, my classmates often turned to me for explanations as I was comfortable with the subjects but was also very patient when someone struggled.
If you struggle with your class work or need a new perspective to understand your lessons, you can come to me. I always say that the fundamentals are what you need to keep in lind 24/7. We can review exercise or study for an upcoming test, you just have to ask !

I hold a PhD in Mechanical Engineering and currently work as a post-doctoral researcher in the Aerospace Engineering Faculty at TU Delft (Delft University of Technology).
Key topics that I teach for this course include:
• Calculus: Differentiation & integration, Multivariable calculus
• Linear Algebra: Matrices, vectors, systems of equations, Eigenvalues and eigenvectors
• Differential Equations: First- and second-order ODEs, Laplace transforms
• Complex Numbers: Polar form, Euler’s formula
• Vector Calculus: Gradient, divergence, curl, Line and surface integrals
• Series & Transforms: Taylor series, Fourier series

I understand that not all teachers excel in teaching Engineering and Mathematics courses and explaining their importance to students. Courses with strong mathematical backgrounds may become boring for students who lack a solid mathematical basis. To address this, I take a student-centered approach, starting from the basics to actively engage all students, including those with weaker mathematical backgrounds. I also provide practical examples to demonstrate the real-world significance of what they are learning, inspiring and fostering their interest in the subject matter.

If you have any additional questions before starting a class, please feel free to ask me. I am here to assist! :)

I 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.

Depending on your needs, practical work may involve Excel, SPSS, Stata, R, SAS, Power BI, SQL, Python, or other relevant analytical tools. Software is never treated as a substitute for understanding: I explain the reasoning behind the method, the assumptions involved, the meaning of the output, and how to verify whether the conclusion is sound.

My teaching approach follows a clear progression:
understand the problem → identify the appropriate concept or method → develop the reasoning → calculate or analyze → verify the result → interpret it → communicate the conclusion

We can work with your course syllabus, textbook, representative exercises, exam topics, dataset, statistical output, research question, spreadsheet, dashboard, engineering application, or professional analytical problem.

Whether you are rebuilding mathematical foundations, preparing for an examination, studying advanced calculus, learning statistics, conducting econometric analysis, interpreting research data, or developing practical analytical skills, I will adapt the sessions to your level, objectives, and pace.

My goal is not merely to help you obtain an answer, but to help you understand the reasoning, choose appropriate methods, verify results, interpret findings correctly, and solve new problems independently.

I provide online Mathematics tutoring for IB students, with particular experience supporting students at IB MYP and IB Diploma (DP) level, including Mathematics AA and AI at SL and HL.

My approach is not simply about giving students answers. I focus on helping them understand why a method works, how to approach unfamiliar problems, and how to present their solutions clearly.

My teaching approach
Every student is different. Some students need help with a particular topic, while others have gaps in their foundations that make later IB topics difficult.

In lessons, I try to identify where the difficulty actually comes from and then build the understanding step by step.

I encourage students to:

• understand concepts rather than memorise procedures;
• explain their reasoning;
• practise with progressively more challenging questions;
• learn from mistakes;
• develop an organised approach to exam questions.

My goal is to help students become more independent and confident mathematicians, rather than dependent on a tutor.
I provide mathematics tutoring for:

International Baccalaureate (IB Mathematics):
✔ MYP Mathematics (Years 2, 3, 4, 5 — Standard and Extended levels)
✔ DP Mathematics: Analysis & Approaches (AA) and Applications & Interpretation (AI) — SL and HL
✔ DP1, DP2, CP1 and CP2 support

Dutch Mathematics Curriculum:
✔ HAVO
✔ VWO
✔ VMBO
✔ Gymnasium

I have provided tutor for university entrance exams like
✔️ CCVX(Boswell Beta ,VWO Mathematics).
✔️ OMPT-A OMPT-B OMPT-D or OMPT-E

Subjects include algebra, calculus, statistics, geometry, and exam preparation.

With my background in mathematics and technology, I also help students develop the analytical thinking skills that are valuable for STEM studies and future careers.
