Polytechnician (X) on Master's internship at EPFL gives mathematics lessons at all levels

From 30.63 £ /h

I am currently an engineering student at the École Polytechnique de Paris and am currently completing my Master's program at EPFL in Lausanne. I offer private mathematics lessons, both in person in Lausanne and online, to high school students and university students (Bachelor's degree).

I acquired solid teaching experience through a 6-month internship in colleges and associations (tutoring, homework help, co-facilitating exercise sessions), as well as by regularly giving private lessons.

My method
My goal is to support each student in a personalized way: understanding of fundamental concepts, strengthening acquired skills, working methods, exam preparation, etc. I adapt to the level and pace of each student, combining rigor, pedagogy and kindness.

Typical course outline
A class typically begins with a discussion to identify current challenges or goals. We then review key concepts and put them into practice through progressive exercises. I also offer additional materials if needed, and a brief debriefing at the end of the session.

What I propose
✅ Mathematics courses in Lausanne (in person) or remotely
✅ For high school students or EPFL students / Bachelor in science or engineering
✅ One-off or regular monitoring (refresher courses, revisions, exams, projects, etc.)
✅ Available weekdays from 6 p.m. and all day on weekends

Dear student,

I am a chemist graduated from EPFL (Swiss Federal Institute of Technology). I have always been fascinated by science and now I hold a doctorate in solid-state physics from the University of Geneva.

Science subjects can help you pass exams. I have been teaching these disciplines for many years during exercise sessions held at the University as well as in private lessons given as an independent.

For this reason, you will have the possibility to ask me for explanations on any subject. It is indeed useful that you can progress on the basis of what you already know. You will of course have the choice to ask me for remedial lessons to revise or discover entire chapters. Before the first lesson starts, I will invite you to explain your situation to me freely and free of charge so that we can work effectively from the first lesson.

All scientific subjects have in common a method that is called "scientific logic". Whenever the opportunity arises, I will offer you elements of this method because it is this method that will allow you to understand durably and to solve the exercises rigorously.

Your studies are serious business, demand that you be taken seriously.

Best regards,
Julien

I hold a Bachelor's degree in Computer Science from EPFL, and I am currently a 2nd year student of a Master's degree in Communication Systems at EPFL. I am available to assist you in your revisions, whether by helping you understand certain concepts, solving exercises or anything else that could help you.

With an average higher than 5/6 in the Bachelor, my skills in mathematics and computer science (whether theoretical or programming) are solid to help students ranging from primary school to the beginning of the Bachelor.

Having been an assistant in EPFL courses on several occasions, I particularly enjoy helping my students understand concepts with which they have difficulty, by giving them a new vision. I obviously remain very flexible, the most important thing being to adapt as best as possible to everyone's needs.

Python is a widely used programming language that allows you to quickly become familiar with code. This course is aimed at students who are interested in learning more about this language, whether in parallel with classes they would have at the gymnasium or for their own interest.

This course adapts to the level of the student and allows you to see ever more complex concepts step by step, starting from the basics if necessary. The basic subjects are obviously highlighted if the student encounters difficulties but it is also possible to see together more advanced subjects such as the processing of data, images, signals as well as the development of a website. with python.

A student at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology in Lausanne (EPFL), I am currently in BA5 - third year of Bachelor's degree - in the IC (computer science) faculty.

I have been giving private lessons since 2018 in mathematics, physics, chemistry and life sciences.

Holder of a Bachelor's degree in Biomedical Sciences since the summer of 2021, I completed a 3-month internship in a hospital environment in the psychiatric sector and basic research in neuroscience. I was also accepted-collée (admitted to the competition but the quota places granted limited my entry into medical school) after having completed a national competition that was both selective and elitist to integrate a faculty of medicine: the first year common to health studies. Very difficult in math, physics, organic chemistry and biology.

I was subsequently very involved in collaborative and associative projects to train students for the medical competition, in the first year. I like teaching, making people understand and seeing this moment of light on the student's face for whom everything becomes clear!

***** Procedure during the SUMMER SCHOOL HOLIDAYS (July and August)
for those who want to get AHEAD,
review their BASICS or simply
get back into the swing of things! *****

I have also been giving private lessons in mathematics and physics for 8th grade students at the gymnasium or in preparation for their maturity for 6 years. Many of my students have an ADHD profile, and I always enjoy adapting to the needs of each person, maintaining DYNAMICS in the course and doing interactive exercises so that the knowledge sinks in better. ..

Dynamic, I am myself a studious and serious student. I have gone through the challenges and stress of exams and competitions many times. My goal is to give you confidence and provide you with the appropriate method to succeed in your course.

Hi! I'm Thibault, a French expatriate in Switzerland, passionate about science since I was little. I had the chance to turn this passion into a career, with a degree from one of the best engineering schools in France (the equivalent of EPFL) and a PhD in statistical physics applied to biology. Today, I want to share this knowledge and passion with you!

In my private lessons, we will explore together the mysteries of science, from physics to biology, including math and chemistry. No stress, we will take the time to understand each concept, with concrete examples and fun experiments. Whether you are in middle school, high school or even university, I adapt to your level to help you progress at your own pace. And since I am mobile in Romandie, we can meet wherever you want for these scientific discovery sessions!

I offer math, physics, and computer science courses for all levels, from middle school to university. After a scientific baccalaureate with honors in France, I obtained my bachelor's degree in microtechnology at EPFL and am currently pursuing a Master's degree in Robotics. I have always been a serious and rigorous student, and I know the essential points to focus on to progress effectively. I got 20 in the philosophy baccalaureate, and I think I am quite good at grammar.

My goal is truly to help each student progress. Classes can be used to review and consolidate the basics, prepare for tests and exams, or delve deeper into certain problematic concepts. I also place great importance on developing good working methods and making students more independent. My approach is interactive and adapts to each student's pace and needs, in order to gain confidence and improve results sustainably.

I recently graduated with a Master's degree in Mathematics from EPFL, where I also worked as a student assistant for 4 years, notably for the CMS (Special Mathematics Course), the MAN (Upgrade), as well as for several first-year Bachelor's courses. I also served as a corrector for multiple exam sessions and wrote a handout for a course for Master's students in Mathematics at EPFL. Through these experiences, I had the opportunity to support many students in successfully completing their first year, often considered one of the most demanding.

Today, I offer private math lessons for all levels, from compulsory school to the federal maturity, as well as for Bachelor students needing support in subjects with a strong mathematical component.

Passionate about teaching, what I appreciate above all is seeing students' progress, their confidence and their growing understanding. My methodology is based on an intuitive understanding of concepts, through simple and clear examples, as well as structured support in reasoning. I place particular emphasis on solving exercises, because it is through regular practice that we consolidate our knowledge and truly progress in mathematics.
