MATHS lessons for every school level: IB, pre IB, MYP, IGCSE and GCSE students

From 36 £ /h

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.

About Me

I am a fifth year medical student.
I have worked as a tutor in several subjects for 7 years . I love seeing how a student that initially hates a subject, starts to appreciate it after I explain it to him with a method suited for him.
In fact, I don't believe that there are people that are more "mathematical" or intelligent than others, I believe they just haven't found the right method yet.
I also prepared lots of students for university admission tests (including ACT and SAT) and language certification tests, and loved seeing their confidence grow after just a few sessions.
I am looking forward to change your mind on studying maths and/or other science subjects!

Education

I have 3 high schools diploma: I graduated with honours and 4 advanced placement courses (AP) in Calculus, Macroeconomics, French and Italian ( in which I got 5,4,5,5)in Los Angeles, and I have graduated in Italy with a French and Italian scientific high school diploma.
I have attended Bocconi University in Milan (Bachelor in international economics and management) for a year, but I am currently studying medicine and surgery since I found out I am in love with science subjects other than maths.

Help with Bocconi and Cattolica Test Preparation - online and in presence

38 £ /h

I have worked for 5 years now with kids from international and Italian schools, helping them with the preparation of tests such as the Bocconi and Cattolica entrance test.
I believe that the key for a successful preparation of a challenging test such as the Bocconi test is exercise, in fact I believe that it is crucial to start the preparation with an adequate advance to gain confidence with the standard exercises we can find in the exam.
My lessons are based on mock exercises: we go through them together seeing what are the student's gaps and then reviewing the theory of those gaps.
I also believe that my method I successful since I can relate to the fear and anxiety a student preparing such a stressful exam is living, having prepared it not so long ago.

Renzo Diaz — Cambridge IGCSE Maths (0580/0607/0606) and Physics (0625) tutor, online in CET. IB tutor since 2016; M.Sc., Politecnico di Milano.

Cambridge IGCSE Mathematics and Physics, one-to-one, from a tutor who has taught the IB since 2016 — so the algebra, the reasoning and the exam pace the IB Diploma will assume are built now, not discovered in DP1.

IGCSE Mathematics: 0580 (Core and Extended), International Mathematics 0607 and Additional Mathematics 0606 — algebra fluency first, the bridge into IB Math AA and AI.

IGCSE Physics 0625, Core and Extended: all six topics — motion, forces and energy; thermal physics; waves; electricity and magnetism; nuclear physics; space physics — and the practical paper (Paper 5 or 6), with the maths inside the physics made fluent: rearranging formulas, units, graphs and gradients.

How I teach: I find the exact step where your child's reasoning breaks — often a topic or two behind the class — rebuild from there, then train exam technique on real past papers. Core or Extended entry caps the grade before the exam: I'll give you an honest view before it is confirmed. One student started with me on IGCSE International Mathematics 0607 and continued through IB Physics HL.

When I was a young child, I believed I was not a mathematical person.

It wasn't until I met an amazing teacher at age 15 that I discovered my mathematical genius and my life was changed forever.

I'm eternally grateful to that teacher.

My teacher knew that self-image and self-belief is the key to unlocking your child's mathematical abilities.

Everyone is good at maths, but we all have different styles of thinking.

Bad teachers teach every child the same way.

My job is to find your child's style of mathematics and allow him to discover that for himself.

When he discovers that, he will begin to enjoy the beauty and power of mathematics

...and then you will see as the grades begin to soar.

I promote independent progress through practical exercises, methodological advice and regular follow-up.

Before/After the lesson:
To maximize effectiveness, sessions are prepared in advance with the student. This preparation includes creating materials for the lesson, outlining the key moments of the session, and monitoring the student's progress.

During the lesson:
The beginning is dedicated to reviewing previous concepts and verifying prior knowledge. Next, time is devoted to understanding new concepts, which will be tested through appropriate exercises. Finally, the correction of these exercises will allow for an assessment of the student's progress.
