Mathematics and physics tutoring for upper high school students

I am a physicist, engineering Ph.D., with over ten years of experience in the space sector. I have worked on various space missions (NASA, ESA, etc.) on either side of the Atlantic. Back in Brussels I founded an engineering company in the field of space radars.

In order to pursue my passion for teaching outside of academia, I am tutoring high school students in physics and mathematics. I teach to both students in remedial situation, and to gifted students who wish to prepare for university.

Since 2013, I have been maintaining a website, Hazardous Physics, where I explain the inner workings of various electromagnetic devices that I have built in a thorough yet accessible way. A lot of information about me can be found by googling my name, Christopher Gerekos.

About Me

* The starting point for the course will be the student's own words: his or her needs, difficulties (are they theoretical? are they in the exercises?), objectives, etc. Based on this, I will draw up the program to be followed, drawing on my own experience and on well-known methods. The course material received in class will be requested in order to target the points requiring work.

* I show the way, with as much information as necessary, but without “giving the answer”: the aim is a deep understanding of the subject, and the student's sense of pride once the exercise has been successfully completed is all the greater.

* When the context lends itself to it, small experimental devices can be used to facilitate understanding.

Komal
Tutoring and Test Practice: Maths/Economics/Geography/History/Political science classes
I specialize in tutoring subjects such as Math, Geography, History, Political Science, and Economics. My primary objective is to ignite and maintain my students' enthusiasm for the subjects they are studying. I offer assistance in various topics they may find challenging. Additionally, I regularly administer brief tests to ensure their progress in the respective subjects.

Maximilien
Private lessons in maths - chemistry - physics in French, Dutch and English
Hello, My name is Maximilien, I am 22 years old and I am currently a Master 2 student at the Katholieke Universiteit Leuven (KUL) where I am pursuing a master's degree in Energy Engineering in English. After completing a bachelor's degree in civil engineering at UCLouvain (physics-chemistry and mechanics option), I decided to continue my studies at the neighboring university. The subjects I teach are mathematics, chemistry and physics. Having also obtained my humanities diploma at Sint-Jan Berchmanscollege, I can give lessons in French, Dutch or English. I like to actively involve my students in the course so that they understand the material well but above all that they find interest in it. I start from the principle that it is difficult to succeed in a subject without appreciating it a minimum and above all finding what it really serves us for! In general, I like to start by reviewing the latest questions/exams to assess the level and needs of the student. Then we go through the theory necessary to carry out the exercises and finally finish with exercise sessions together. I am a dynamic and attentive person who quickly understands students (I was in their shoes not so long ago), which allows me to create a relationship of trust, so that the student feels comfortable and asks ALL the questions he has, and does not hesitate to say when things are not going well.

Sam
MATHS-PHYSICS-ELECTRIC exam preparation
Professor in mathematics, computer science at HEFF in Brussels and before a professor of electronics at the IEPSCF, ENGINEER in electronics ECAMIEN graduated in mathematics-physics and I propose an individualized pedagogy, an aid in the preparation of the interrogations or exams. My goal is to advance the student without overloading him. I give homework after each lesson and periodically provide progress reports. I strongly encourage the student because the state of mind and morale have a direct influence on school results. I am someone understandable and I always try to take each in his own way. I always start by clarifying the course after giving an example then giving an example to the student plus doing a full exercise and finally correcting an exam together generally this is methodology but it can change from one case to another revise the courses studied in class. give remarks that makes the job easier. give the tips and tricks you need to get a good rating. try to make the student quick in these calculations and demonstrations and give the way in which he should manage his duty

Christian
Maths, Physics, Chemistry and Engineering Sciences
I am a civil engineer and doctoral student in mechanical engineering (Bilingual FR-ENG), having experience of more than 15 years in private lessons, I give lessons in Maths, Physics, Chemistry, Engineering Science (Mechanics, Resistance of Materials (RDM), Thermodynamics, Electricity, Industrial Design, Mechanical Construction, Fluid Mechanics and CAD/CAM: SolidWorks, Inventor, Pro/E 5 (Creo), catia V5 and AutoCAD 2D/3D) to general secondary students, technical and academics from the 1st to 5th year as well as professionals who want to learn CAD/CAM software (CAD/CAM). I have already worked as a professor of physics, mechanics, electricity and welding and at the same time worked as a civil engineer for more than 15 years With all the pupils, students and professionals that I teach, I always start by assessing their degree of difficulty and then I adapt an effective method that can help them succeed in their years, their competitive examination or even their training. I have already had several cases of students who had not been in school for several years, whom I had helped to regain the necessary level to be able to succeed in their years, their competitive exams or their training. For example, I helped a French woman who was already working in Telecom in Paris and suddenly she decided to leave everything at the age of 35 to come and study physiotherapy even though she had never done the maths, physics and chemistry, we started working together in September and in January, she was able to pass her maths, physics and chemistry exams at ULB. This is just one example among many...

Math and science courses – method and pedagogy (secondary-university)
Are you struggling with science or math? Or would you simply like to strengthen your skills with a clear and effective method? I offer courses tailored to your needs, whatever your level or goals. A construction engineer with a passion for teaching, I have been supporting students from middle school to university for several years. My approach is based on a deep understanding of concepts, the acquisition of a rigorous methodology, and constant adaptation to the student's profile. In the program : ✔️ Clear and illustrated explanations of concepts ✔️ Progressive exercises with step-by-step corrections ✔️ Methodology to gain efficiency and autonomy ✔️ Preparation for exams and competitive exams (secondary, higher education, civil engineering, etc.) I make it a point of honor to make each session enjoyable and motivating, so that the student gains confidence in their abilities and makes lasting progress. I am also proficient in software such as SCIA Engineer and Abaqus.

Private Science Lessons (Chemistry - Physics - Biology)
Hello, I am a master's student in Bioengineering and I give private lessons to students (secondary and university level) to enable them to overcome their difficulties until their subject no longer has any secrets for them and it becomes fun! ;) I am methodical, rigorous, patient and attentive to the student's needs. I teach at home (Woluwe-St-Pierre) and I can travel to the student's home (Woluwe-St-Pierre, Auderghem, Ixelles, and surrounding areas) So if you need a little help in science, don't hesitate to contact me. See you soon !

Cyril
Private lessons in math - physics - biology
A 23-year-old student with a bachelor's degree in medicine and bioengineering, I am currently in the final year of a Master's degree in bioengineering at the ULB. I have been teaching math and physics for over two years to first-year university and high school students. My goal is to dedicate these complicated materials, simplifying and diversifying the explanations as much as possible. My experience allows me to adapt to the needs of each student, the goal being to provide an effective working method to understand these topics. Elementary, high school or university students are welcome. Looking forward to meeting you! Cyril.

Marie
Math-Physics-Chemistry-Biology Course
Currently a student in BA3 Bio-engineer, I understood that to pass a course must at all costs understand it. That's what I'm going to try to teach you. While approaching the problems in several ways, we will try to understand the "why and how" is happening. Once one understands, everything is more than calculation or logical sequence. Each course will be meticulously prepared because these subjects are like the bike; we forget quickly but once we take them back it comes back. I can also give extra exercises and / or homework as needed.

Gaspard
High School Science Course (1st - Rhéto)
I am a student in Physics at the ULB, and am willing to give all types of scientific courses; Physics, Biology, Chemistry and Mathematics, from 1st to 6th year of humanities. I have a lot of experience in private lessons, with conclusive results, for any student! I adapt to the level and know how to take the time for the student to integrate the subject perfectly, while remaining in a motivating dynamic that makes him think without giving him everything on a platter. I give lessons followed on periods of varied durations, more or less intense according to the circumstances (revisions for exams, regular help during the year, etc ..) I move everywhere in Brussels.
