🩺 Succeed in your first year of medical school: private tutoring in basic sciences

From 95 C$ /h

The first year of medical school is selective and the pace is intense. Do you feel overwhelmed in chemistry, physics, or biology? Are you unsure how to organize your revision?

My name is Claire. I have a Bachelor's degree in Biomedical Sciences and I'm a Master's student at EPFL. I prepared for the first-year medical school entrance exam myself, and then helped other students prepare for it through a student association. I know the pressure of that year firsthand.

🧠 A sustainable working method, not just cramming
📩 A short report for parents after each session

I am used to working with students with ADHD or a learning disability.
I adapt the pace and materials to each individual.

Who is it for? High school seniors (maturity) and first-year EPFL/HEC students
Subjects: analysis, linear algebra, physics
Where? At home (Lausanne, Pully, Lutry, Ecublens, St-Sulpice, Morges), 1.5-hour session · or at EPFL (Rolex Learning Center)

Because of my teaching experience in several French and American universities, I have a long practice of teaching undergraduate and graduate programs in a wide variety of scientific disciplines such as physical and chemical thermodynamics, mechanics fluids, Mechanics, Electromagnetism, Spectroscopy but also electronics, statistics etc ...
Proven pedagogy, particularly adapted to students in higher education
As well as punctual focus, intensive sessions (review review, September catch-up) or follow-up throughout the year.
With regard to medical studies (medicine and pharmacy) I taught a lot of physics and biophysics: fluid physics, mechanics, thermodynamics but also parts of the histology program (energetics, fluid compartments).
Small group course possible (up to 3i students)

Student of the Ecole Centrale Paris, I am currently in double-degree at the EPFL in Master of Engineering Life Sciences.

I offer tutoring at all levels for students in the first year of medicine, especially for help in physics and chemistry.

Indeed, I did three years of preparatory classes in physics-chemistry, then I joined the School of Engineering Centrale Paris, and attended a parallel training in biomedical medicine at the University of Paris-Sud.

I am now in Master at EPFL, and I have been teaching for more than three years now, for all levels, in mathematics, physics, biology and chemistry. I accompanied many students for their first year of medicine.

I know how to adapt to my students and their needs, to ensure their understanding, progression and success.

Dynamic and involved, I am rigorous and serious. I like teaching and helping. I know the program of medicine in physics and chemistry because I studied it in preparatory classes. In addition, the profile of medical students is similar to mine (physics / chemistry studies in biomedical engineering).

My biology courses (biochemistry, biotechnology in particular) are aimed at the following levels: high school students, bachelor's and master's. I am also ready to train adults who are passionate about biology and are trying to obtain a diploma, for example.

I adapt my method after having discussed with the student and I am very patient who has only one desire: the success of the student. I like to pass on my passion for life sciences and use several methods. I am a calm and very flexible person, willing to support students who seek to deepen their knowledge or who have certain difficulties.

- Discussion and understanding of the learning method adapted to the student (mental imagery, diagram, comparison, oral, written and/or visual comprehension)
- Use of adapted tools: textbooks but also computer tools (website, powerpoint, etc.)
