Mathematics courses in Geneva – IB, Maturity, secondary school and exam preparation

From 101 C$ /h

As a private mathematics tutor with over 10 years of experience, I support students from secondary school to pre-university level, including IB Mathematics AA/AI SL/HL, pre-IB and Swiss Maturity.

My approach prioritizes understanding and autonomy. Rather than rote learning, we work on grasping concepts, precisely identifying difficulties, and building solid mathematical reasoning. Lessons are tailored to each student's level, objectives, and learning style.

I can assist you with:
– consolidate the concepts seen in class and fill in the gaps;
– prepare for tests, exams and assessments;
– develop problem-solving methods and reasoning;
– improve examination technique and strategy;
– to progress towards greater confidence and autonomy in mathematics.

I obtained the International Baccalaureate in 2017 with 45/45, with Mathematics, Physics and Chemistry at the higher level, then went on to university studies in mathematics at the University of Edinburgh, where I obtained a Diploma of Higher Education (DipHE) in Mathematics.

Courses can be delivered in person in the Geneva region or online.

Extra information

Before the first lesson, you can send me the chapters or concepts you wish to work on, as well as your exercises, homework, assessments, or other course materials. This will allow me to best adapt the session to your level and objectives.

About Me

Mathematics has always interested me, but what I particularly enjoy about teaching is the moment when something that initially seemed difficult finally starts to make sense to a student.

I have been tutoring mathematics for over 10 years and currently work with students from a range of academic backgrounds, including IB Mathematics (AA and AI, SL/HL), pre-IB, Swiss Maturité and secondary-level mathematics.

I am a patient and adaptable tutor with a strong emphasis on genuine understanding. I first try to identify exactly what a student already understands and where the difficulty lies, then adapt my explanations and exercises accordingly. My aim is not simply to help students pass their next test: I want them to progressively develop their mathematical reasoning, confidence and independence.

I particularly enjoy working with curious and motivated students, but also with students who have lost confidence in mathematics or simply need concepts explained in a different way.

I am Mavi, a physics engineer working at an aerospace company.
I have been teaching private lessons at the primary, secondary, high school, and university preparatory levels for 11 years. I teach mathematics, physics, chemistry, and science. I have a good command of the curricula of IB, IGCSE, American, Hong Kong, and international schools.

Additionally, I hold the position of president at the Astronomy Society, where I foster my students' interest in astronomy and science beyond the lessons. I prepare the learning environment by incorporating experiments and exploration, moving away from rote education. I often bring experimental materials to class, aiming to make learning memorable through hands-on experiments.

As an educational mentor, I approach my students as if they were my siblings, valuing creativity. I have a deep passion for mathematics, physics, and science. I am dedicated to helping students understand and learn because life encompasses both SCIENCE and ART. The more people I can inspire to know, understand, and love mathematics, physics, and chemistry, the more proud I am.

Graduated in mathematics and physics, I offer my help to students who encounter difficulties in these two subjects. My approach is to review with them the key points of the lessons and to assist them in their homework, whether at home or through online sessions via webcam.
Do not hesitate to contact me for a first request; I usually respond within 24 hours.
My goal is to help the student understand his course and his exercises, and to guide him on the right path so that he can succeed in his school or university year. I support students of all levels, from 14 years old to the second year of university, in the fields of science, economics or any other field where courses in mathematics, statistics, computer science and physics are exempted.
Classes can be given at home (with a price including the class and travel expenses) or by webcam (with a specific price for the online course).
For rehearsal sessions, I generally recommend between 1 and 2 hours per week, and up to 10 hours per week for intensive review and refresher courses.

-------
The path and the method are in there; take a little bit of each.

Holding a degree in mathematics from EPFL, I offer private lessons in Geneva or online.

I graduated from EPFL with a degree in mathematics, having completed all the Bachelor's level courses in this discipline. I have gained significant experience tutoring students from middle school to university level (mathematics and physics). I have also assisted with teaching at EPFL, particularly in specialized courses such as analytic geometry (advanced mathematics course), analysis (first and second year Bachelor's level), and linear algebra (first year Bachelor's level). My in-depth mastery of the theory in these disciplines provides me with the skills and teaching abilities necessary to effectively support high school and university students, helping them understand the theoretical concepts in their courses and apply them practically in their exercises.

Typical course: a quick review (adapted to needs) of the essential concepts of the course, followed by practical exercises and oral role-playing (going to the board, discussion on the physical meaning, etc.), as in a competitive oral exam.

All my lessons are prepared in advance based on the topics covered in class (the student specifies their needs from one session to the next). I also create a handout containing sample exercises illustrating different methods, fully corrected and explained by me.

My commitment to my students' success is absolute. I only prioritize motivated students who are ready to put in the necessary effort to progress.

My main focus is on in-depth understanding and the quality of work. Depending on the student's request, I can also suggest exercises to do between sessions (not mandatory, depending on available time and homework already assigned by their school).

I adapt my lessons (French, English, Russian, homework help) to each student's pace and needs. Each session begins with an assessment of what they have already learned, followed by targeted work on areas for improvement, then practical exercises and real-life scenarios. I use a variety of materials to make learning engaging and accessible. My multilingual background and experience working with children and teenagers from diverse cultural backgrounds allow me to support students from elementary to high school, including those experiencing language integration difficulties, with patience and empathy.
