This course is for students who need someone to explain and review with them the topics of a school course.
The course is specialized for your child. You can focus on certain topics, do homework as well as prepare your child / you for tests and exams.

My goal is to improve and strengthen your knowledge.

Being German and having the English level of a native speaker I have everything I need to help you. Personal interest allows me to explain Biology up to the university level as well as mathematics up to the 10th grade level of the college.
I have 5 years of experience.

Usually I teach in French, if you want English or German are also possible.

Depending on the student and his situation:

-Student in school: reminder of lessons and exercises, application of concrete cases
- Out-of-school student: Detailed course of the chosen subject and exercises.
- ability to concentrate: lessons between 1 and 2 hours.
Depending on his ability to concentrate, the exercises could be done in the form of games in order to capture his attention.

I always give examples of application so that the student understands the interest of studying these themes.

If your child has difficulty in mathematics, it is completely normal.

Indeed, teaching at school is not necessarily suitable for all students.

Fortunately, it really is possible to regain self-confidence.

And above all, to improve your math results quickly.

Doctor of Science from the University of Geneva, and currently a teacher-researcher in pedagogy, I have been giving private lessons in mathematics and statistics for several years, at the cycle/gymnasium/university level.

Possibility to travel to Geneva.

Do not hesitate if you have any questions.

I will answer you personally.

Best regards,

The scientific reports and orals that you produce during your university course strongly condition the success of your studies. The greatest, smartest scientist will never be recognized if he fails to communicate and present his results.

In this course we will therefore learn how to write a scientific report / dissertation, what are the fundamental parts and their contents. This course may be based on the reports that you have already produced, that you will / must produce, or on content from the lessons that I have produced at the Faculty of Pharmacy of Grenoble.


Example lesson:

- Analysis of a scientific article that I will have communicated to you.

- The different parts of an article and the content.

- How to present results.

- Writing a report and correction during a second exchange.

First, I base myself on a good course explanation in order to fully understand the concepts and formulas. in a second stage we do variable exercises that differ from one subject to another, with the aim of training well and discovering new methods and tricks and also learning to apply the notions of the course.
And I also help with homework, summaries and preparing for exams.

TRANSFORMING LEANERS INTO TOP ACHIEVERS— FROM PRIMARY TO IB

Welcome to a learning experience designed to inspire confidence, mastery, and academic excellence across Mathematics, Science, Physics, Chemistry, and Biology. Whether your child is building foundational understanding in primary school, preparing for the challenges of IGCSE/MYP, or tackling the rigor of A Level and IB (HL & SL), my classes are structured to deliver real, measurable progress.


WHY LEARN WITH ME?

I bring over 10 years of professional tutoring experience** backed by a strong academic foundation. Having graduated with honors from both the Faculty of Science and the Faculty of Medicine, and further trained in advanced mathematical and scientific pedagogy at top institutions like MIT, I have developed a teaching approach that blends expertise, empathy, and innovation.

BUT MY PASSION FOR TEACHING COMES FROM A DEPPER PLACE.

As someone who once struggled with dyslexia and ADHD, finishing at the bottom of the class, I personally understand the frustrations many learners face. With the guidance of a mentor, I transformed my academic life—rising to the top 1% worldwide in SATs and earning placements at prestigious universities.
This journey fuels my mission: to help every student unlock their potential, no matter where they begin.

* Support with homework, revision, coursework, and past papers


FOR PARENTS

Your child will be learning in a supportive, structured environment designed to strengthen skills, fill gaps from earlier years, and rebuild confidence.
You can expect:

* Steady performance improvement
* Clear progress tracking
* Regular feedback
* A tutor who treats your child’s success as a shared mission

FOR STUDENTS

You deserve a teacher who understands you.
You deserve lessons that make difficult concepts finally make sense.
You deserve a guide who will help you go from confused to confident—and even exceptional.
I’m here to help you build the skills, habits, and mindset that top-performing students rely on.

SEE WHAT OTHER PARENTS AND STUDENTS SAY

I always encourage new clients to read my reviews as they reflect the real results, growth, and transformations that students experience in my sessions. Your trust matters and my past students’ success stories say more than I ever could.
