EPFL Student-Researcher | Fundamental & Applied Mathematics, Physics, AI

From 101.8 C$ /h

As an engineering student at École des Ponts et Chaussées (Paris) and researcher in mathematics applied to AI at EPFL, I offer private tutoring in fundamental and applied mathematics for various levels:

- Secondary school (Vaud)
- University Bachelor's degree (Vaud)
- Classes Préparatoires aux Grandes Écoles (France)

My teaching approach, focused on deep understanding and scientific curiosity, has enabled my students to achieve excellent academic results and develop true autonomy.
I also teach physics, chemistry, and computer science (Python, algorithms, Machine Learning). In limited cases, I provide project assistance and teach Modern Standard Arabic.
Available via video conference or in Lausanne (depending on availability),

I provide personalized support according to your specific needs, whether for regular follow-up or intensive courses with the goal of excelling, not just passing.

My students have excelled in Brevet, Baccalaureate, bachelor's programs, preparatory school competitions, and scientific projects. Many have gained enough independence to no longer need support after a year and a half.
For my part, I obtained my Baccalaureate in 2020 with an average of 18/20. I also completed intensive preparatory classes in MPSI-MP** before joining École des Ponts et Chaussées, then EPFL for research.

About Me

- Student-researcher at EPFL after a career of excellence (MP** at Ponts et Chaussées), I teach mathematics, physics and computer science with passion and method. My teaching aims at understanding and intellectual autonomy, beyond simple success in exams (memorization).

- I favor motivated students who seek to truly master their subject. The results speak for themselves: excellent grades in the Brevet/Bac, success in the Grandes Écoles competitive exams, and notable progress in the bachelor's degree. Proof of my effectiveness.

- Many students become completely independent after only 12 to 24 months of follow-up.

My approach combines scientific rigor with adaptability to each learner's profile. If you're aiming for excellence in science, I'll guide you there with personalized and rigorous support.

I offer support, refresher and advanced courses in mathematics.
I adapt to everyone.
I have a dynamic and pedagogical approach.
My lessons can take place at your home or via a camera that films my writings, as well as a computer camera for videoconferencing. Thus, you can improve your level in mathematics wherever you are, without any geographical constraint, in a fun and effective way.

Acquiring methods, organizing knowledge and reasoning to solve exercises, using memorization techniques are often the important points to develop to enable the student to be independent and achieve their goals.

I am rather open and relaxed, while being precise and rigorous.

I am a secondary school teacher (retraining in 2021) after having been a chemical and textile engineer, and a former student of a preparatory class for the grandes écoles (higher and special maths).

For 12 years, I have been giving individual lessons to students of all levels, and more specifically to students preparing for the French scientific baccalaureate, the international baccalaureate or in cycle.

I offer courses adapted to all levels, whether in college, high school or bachelor's degree. My classes include homework help, exam preparation and in-depth exercises. As a former student who asked a lot of questions himself, I encourage my students to ask as many questions as possible in order to dissipate all gray areas and leave no detail to chance, thus promoting exam success. .
I firmly believe that academic success does not depend on an innate aptitude, but rather on the ability to identify weak points and work on them. As a teacher, I am attentive to these weak points by regularly asking the student questions about the meaning of the exercises and each step of the calculation. I also push my students to develop their intuition so that they can easily adapt to any problem on exam day.

Third-year physics student at EPFL Lausanne.

The courses are aimed in particular at university students, but also at secondary school students. For those attending EPFL, I can give classes in person. Otherwise, I am also available for online courses. The topics and course delivery are agreed with the students according to their specific needs. They can include both theoretical explanations and the carrying out of practical exercises.

From my own experience, I have found that everyone can understand the most complex concepts, you just need to adopt the right approach and teaching method, which varies from person to person. As it is not always possible to make this important distinction in general courses, my intention is to provide those who need it with help in catching up with the program by filling in gaps and/or doubts. I do not favor a mnemonic approach, but rather a deep understanding of the subject.

As a third-year Life Sciences student at EPFL, I offer math and physics-chemistry courses for students up to high school level. I earned a science baccalaureate with a specialization in mathematics and physics-chemistry, and have been giving private lessons for several years. My goal is to help each student progress methodically and confidently, in a caring environment adapted to their pace.

During the lessons, we focus on understanding key concepts, applying them through targeted exercises, and developing lasting autonomy in scientific subjects.

Most lessons will start with a discussion before jumping into practice questions and worked examples in a calmer environment than the classroom.

We will discuss what area(s) of Mathematics the student is struggling with, I will then present diagnostic questions to identify the root cause of the confusion before working from basics to make sure the student understands what the gap in their knowledge is and how to best reinforce the gap in their learning.

For more confident students one of the best ways to prepare them for exams is working through exam-style questions and reviewing common areas where marks are lost along with best practices to minimise wasted time during the tests.
