Physics / Science / Mathematics tutor - GCSE / IGCSE / IB MYP / IB DP / A-levels (very experienced)

I am an interactive teacher with 8 years of experience in schools and 16 years as a tutor. I have a strong background in physics and astronomy/astrophysics, and I have taught these subjects at the university level. My academic background includes studies in science, education, and science communication. My teaching approach is friendly, open, and engaging while maintaining clarity and directness. I believe in using a variety of materials, interactive simulations, and conceptual learning to make the learning experience enriching and enjoyable. As an educator, my online teaching abilities have significantly improved over time, and I am well-adapted to the online learning environment, especially given the previous situation with Covid.

Teaching Methodology:
Effective teaching goes beyond simply presenting information or repeating the same material. To truly help students grasp concepts, it is essential to approach subjects from various angles, allowing students time to make connections. Making learning interesting in a classroom setting requires practice and skill, and I have honed these abilities over many years. I am dedicated to continually enhancing my teaching skills as I both teach and learn myself!

Reason for pricing:
I am an expensive tutor, there is no doubt that my hourly rate is high, but there is a reason for this. I am very good at what I do. I am supportive, caring and I listen, reflect and share ideas / solutions / resources with students to work with and on both in our sessions and outside of it too. I make students feel comfortable to talk to me, make mistakes and engage with the content to the best of their abilities.

About Me

I am keen to get back into tutoring one or two students on a regular (weekly) basis if possible. I have taught students of all kinds from those who were very strongly mathematically inclined to those who initially believed that they would not be able to do mathematics. Eventually through practice and collaboration, we (the student and I) developed an understanding that with a growth mindset, every student can be mathematically inclined through hard work and difficulties in understanding.

Education

Honours degree in Astrophysics from Monash University (4 years long).
A Masters degree in Science communication from Australian National University (2 years).
An iPGCE (educational degree) from University of Sheffield (1 year degree).
A Masters of Education, teaching and learning from University of Sheffield - which is the natural extension to my iPGCE - Finished 2021.

Experience / Qualifications

I am a international school teacher with 8 years experience and a tutor of 16 years experience. I have previously run my own tutoring business in Australia which had over 40 students and 10 tutors who I helped improve teaching practice and ran all aspects of the small business. I have taught physics and astronomy at university level and been in and around middle / high school education for many years, including previously working for the IB itself.

Private lessons in Math, Physics, Chemistry and SVT
The math, physics, chemistry, and SVT courses of the Swiss maturity program and gymnasium or French programs are done by either in-depth explanations or by a quick course and summary of essential needs according to the case of each student supported by exercises from the book or evaluations and exams from other high schools. Special program for Matura and Terminales. As well as for (students in international and European Schools in English, they can have support in Math, Physics, Chemistry and Biology). For the start of the academic year in Switzerland, support courses for EPSU and ECUS exams. For the first university year, support courses in Mathematics - Analysis - Matrices - Statistics - Algebra - Geometry - Physics - Mechanics - Electricity - Chemistry - Organic Chemistry - Biology, Geology. My experience is too long and for years I have learned methods for each case and for each student to fill in their gaps with the best results of Excellent, Very Good, and Good as mentioned by my students. I can also help students to better prepare for courses and support them to better prepare for the duties of CNED in science subjects. Guaranteed response within minutes up to 10 hours maximum.

Benoit
Private online mathematics lessons - Qualified and experienced teacher
I am a qualified and experienced mathematics tutor. Graduated from the Free University of Brussels in 2011, I started my career by teaching remedial courses in different schools in Brussels. I then specialized in individual academic support by following educational training at the Harvard Graduate School of Education. I have been giving private mathematics lessons daily for over ten years. The students who follow my private lessons benefit from personalized support. The first session is devoted to an in-depth assessment of the student's mathematical knowledge. The objective is to detect its weak points and understand their origin in order to adapt my courses to its needs. I develop a tailor-made remediation program for each of my students aimed at filling each of their gaps. Over the course of the sessions, the student builds a solid foundation for learning and regains self-confidence. At the same time, I help him acquire a work methodology that allows him to gradually become autonomous in his studies. I have a perfect knowledge of the mathematics program of the College and the High School (from the Sixth to the Terminale). During my formative years, I studied and developed many techniques that make it easier to learn math. The strength of my pedagogical approach lies in my ability to explain in a simple way everything that the student finds complicated. I am passionate about this job because it gives me the opportunity to guide dropout students on the path to success. It is a real pleasure to see them evolve and come to terms with the fantastic world of mathematics. I provide my private lessons in Limoges (at the student's home) or remotely (online via the internet). My distance learning courses take place on an interactive online whiteboard. This board is specially designed to promote student/teacher interaction on the internet. Thanks to this educational tool, my online courses are as effective as home courses. The student only needs an internet connection and a computer, tablet, or smartphone to take advantage of it.

Mathe. Chemistry. Physik. Präzision aus Bern – Für deinen Erfolg im Schweizer Bildungssystem.
Mathematics, Chemistry and Physics – clear knowledge, personal knowledge Ich bin Kian, erfahrener Nachhilfelehrer aus Bern, und unterstütze Schüler: innen und students auf allen Stufen – von Sek I and Sek II bis hin zu Passerelle, IB, Universität und dem Schweizer Maturitätslevel. With meiner strukturierten, verständlichen und motivierenden Herangehensweise helfe ich dir nicht nur, bessere Noten zu erreichen – sondern auch, die Zusammenhänge wirklich zu verstehen. Mein Unterricht is individuall, effizient and auf Augenhöhe. 📘 Was du über mich wissen solltest: Ich unterrichte in Bern and habe den MAS-Studengang in Statistical Data Science at the Universität Bern erfolgreich abgeschlossen – mit einem starken Schwerpunkt auf Mathematik, Statistik und analytischem Denken. Seit mehreren Jahren gebe ich mit Begeisterung Nachhilfe – insbesondere in den naturwissenschaftlichen Fächern, in denen viele oft den Anschluss verlieren. Gerade in Mathematik, Chemie and Physik geht es oft um Structures, Logik and das Verständnis von Zusammenhängen – genau diese Leidenschaft bringe ich in meinen Unterricht ein. Ich combiniere fachliche Tiefe mit didaktischem Feingefühl – sodass selbst komplexe Inhalte greifbar und nachvollziehbar werden. ✅ We have already seen the following instructions: Einzelunterricht, der sich an deinem Tempo und deinen Zielen orientiert Unterstützung für alle Stufen – Sek I, Sek II, Passerelle, IB, Universität & more Klarer Fokus auf den Schweizer Lehrplan – including cantonal Anforderungen Modern Didaktik & echte Aha-Momente statt trockenem Auswendiglernen Langfristige Lernstrategien für nachhaltigen Erfolg Flexible Unterricht in Bern oder online – zuverlässig, personal & effektiv 💬 Why learn from me? We do not know what to do with it – its structure, structure and motivation. Ich nehme mir Zeit, Inhalte so zu vermitteln, dass sie wirklich hängen bleiben – verständlich, logisch und auf deine Situation zugeschnitten. Bei mir geht es nicht darum, „irgendwie durchzukommen“ – sondern darum, sicherer zu werden, tiefer zu verstehen – and dabei oldeicht sogar Freude an Mathe, Chemie oder Physik zu entwickeln. Gute Nachhilfe ist keine Notlösung – sie ist ein echter Neustart. Wenn du bereit bist, besser zu verstehen, bin ich bereit, dich zu begleiten.

Maths, Physics, Computer Science: Coaching, homework help - exam preparation
My classes cover all levels from primary to upper secondary. It's important to ensure continuity with your child's teacher's course. Therefore, I will only use my course if necessary. It's important not to duplicate the documents in order to simplify things. 1 + 1 will always equal 2. Theory is the foundation, but practice is essential. Examples are very important for understanding mathematical, physics, and computer science concepts. That's why each theorem will be followed by an example and several exercises. The number of steps will depend on the student's level. Their intelligence has nothing to do with it; it's their motivation and self-confidence that drive their success. I'll give them what they need to assimilate at their own pace all the concepts that school requires them to master. It's also important to have a methodology. By breaking down difficult concepts into simpler ones, we obtain building blocks that simply need to be assembled to understand the entire problem. Teachers neglect this aspect and don't revisit concepts they think they've learned, which is why many students drop out of school. Mathematics is also used in other subjects. It is perfectly possible to cover concepts used in physics, chemistry, or economics if necessary. I also teach courses in these disciplines. I prefer distance learning to avoid travel. However, sometimes students or parents may want me to travel to the area. This is possible after the first class, in the Brussels area.
