I help people from primary to gymnasium improve their proficiency level in french at writting and speaking. And because i have a background in Engeneering studies i can also help in Mathematics and physics.

Same goes with adults willing to learn french and for those who needsto start with the basics in English

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.

As a first-year Master's student at Neuro-X after a Bachelor's degree in Life Sciences Engineering at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology Lausanne, I have acquired a solid grasp of scientific subjects and a good understanding of academic requirements in mathematics and physics.
My goal is to support each student with a caring approach adapted to their pace, by offering them a learning environment where they feel comfortable asking questions and progressing calmly.
Together, we will work on understanding key concepts and their application through various exercises, in order to strengthen confidence and autonomy in science.

Whether you are preparing for an exam, catching up on coursework, or aiming for top grades, I offer personalized mathematics lessons tailored to your goals and learning style.

I teach students from primary school to university level, including:

Algebra
Calculus
Linear Algebra
Geometry
Probability
Mathematical Analysis
Discrete Mathematics
Exam preparation

As a Master's student in Statistics and a Teaching Assistantat EPFL, I help students understand not only how to solve problems, but also why the methods work.

Lessons are adapted to each student's pace, with clear explanations, worked examples, and structured problem-solving techniques.

A serious student in high school, I always felt comfortable in school, particularly in math, French, and English. I enjoy sharing my knowledge and have already helped classmates improve in these subjects.

I offer personalized support tailored to each student's needs: reviewing the school curriculum, homework help, test/exam preparation, or simply reinforcing the fundamentals. I adapt my method to each student's pace, with great patience. The goal is for the student to truly understand, not just memorize.

Available this summer and flexible with hours. Feel free to contact me to discuss your child's specific needs.

Are you looking to prepare for entrance to EPFL, strengthen your foundations in mathematics or physics, acquire effective study methods, or calmly prepare for your exams? I offer personalized support to help you assimilate concepts in depth and adopt effective problem-solving methods.

I primarily work with two types of clients:
- 1st and 2nd year students at EPFL, or in CMS (analysis, linear algebra, mechanics, thermodynamics, etc.).
- Motivated high school students wishing to prepare for their baccalaureate or entry into a demanding scientific field.

I am currently in my first year of a Master's degree in physics at EPFL, after having completed my Bachelor's degree there. Before coming to Switzerland, I attended the Lycée Louis-le-Grand in Paris (graduating with highest honors).
I have been giving private lessons for 5 years. This experience has allowed me to fully understand the academic requirements (especially those of EPFL) and to adapt quickly to the specific difficulties of each student.

Feel free to contact me to explain your needs, whether it's for occasional help or regular follow-up.

Videoconference preparation for the Swiss supplementary examination (ECUS) and first-year mathematics at EPFL.

The ECUS is not a school exam. It's an entrance exam, with a specific syllabus, a set format, and a time constraint that eliminates perfectly competent candidates. Preparation, therefore, doesn't consist of reviewing course material, but of rebuilding a foundation and practicing in the actual exam format.

Master's degree in Operations Research (applied mathematics), more than five years of private tutoring, including mentoring foreign students preparing for their entry into the Swiss system.

What I cover

ECUS — comprehensive mathematics program, practice with sample exams, time management
EPFL's Special Mathematics Course (CMS)
Refresher courses before the first year of university or college: analysis, linear algebra, probability
Refresher courses for candidates who have been out of the school system for several years

Method

An initial assessment is conducted to determine the student's actual level in relation to the exam requirements, followed by a detailed study plan: number of hours needed, priority chapters, and a timeline leading up to the exam date. Each session combines targeted review of theoretical material with practice exercises in the exam format.

I work with candidates who are starting from scratch as well as with students who want to secure their first year.

I offer clear, structured and engaging lessons in Biology, Chemistry and general Natural Sciences, adapted to the student’s level and goals. My approach is practical and supportive: I help students understand key concepts, improve their scientific reasoning, and gain confidence through simple explanations, real‐world examples and targeted exercises.

Whether you need help preparing for exams, reviewing difficult topics, strengthening your foundations or improving your study methods, I provide personalized guidance and a calm, encouraging learning environment. Lessons are suitable for students in secondary school, gymnasium or adults wishing to refresh their scientific knowledge.

I offer tutoring in mathematics, physics, and chemistry, tailored to each student's level and needs. The goal is to review essential concepts and understand problem-solving methods.

The sessions are personalized and can cover exam preparation, exercise correction, in-depth exploration of certain concepts, etc. I favor a pedagogical approach using analogies or real-life situations whenever possible, taking the time to explain concepts in different ways until they are fully understood.

Adrien

As a double-degree student at EPFL after completing my studies at École Polytechnique (l'X) and in scientific preparatory classes in France, I offer private lessons in mathematics, physics and chemistry.

My background allows me to provide rigorous support for all secondary school levels (Swiss Matura, Gymnasium) as well as for fundamental science courses at the Bachelor's level. My approach is based on clarifying theoretical concepts, developing effective study methods, and practicing targeted exercises to ensure optimal exam preparation.

Learn the basics of French and English, or deepen your knowledge of these languages. The course aims to prepare you for quizzes and exams, and to help you learn to speak the language fluently and correctly.
The course will be interactive with games or more advanced exercises depending on the student's progress.

I am a Master's student in Electronic Engineering offering Math and Physics lessons. Over the past 7 years, I have tutored about 40 middle and high school students, helping them recover from bad grades and excel in their studies. My strength lies in simplifying complex scientific concepts: rather than asking students to memorize formulas, I guide them to understand the underlying logic. I am very patient and adapt to each student's learning pace to make them fully independent. I believe in building a relationship of trust and empathy, creating a relaxed environment where students never feel anxious about asking questions or making mistakes.
