IGCSE Physics Tutor — Cambridge Syllabus, Exam-Focused Support

From 138 C$ /h

I work exclusively on IGCSE Physics, providing structured, exam-focused support with particular attention to how marks are awarded.

Lessons are aligned with the Cambridge syllabus and focus on building a solid understanding of core concepts, developing effective exam technique, and preparing for the assessments.

Support can include:

- Identifying and addressing underlying gaps that hinder progress in class
- Explaining Physics concepts using clear models
- Working through exam-style questions and mark schemes
- Analysing past papers to understand common errors
- Planning structured revision for mocks and final exams

This approach is suited to students who:

- Understand the theory but lose marks in exams
- Feel overwhelmed by the syllabus
- Need structured, goal-oriented revision

Lessons are one-to-one, online, and focused on exam preparation.

Extra information

I sometimes have additional slots, subject to scheduling.

Currently studying in the first year at EPFL, in the Computer Science and Communications System faculty.
I offer repetition courses in mathematics and more generally in science subjects, from elementary school to high school level.
This course is aimed at students having difficulty in scientific branches as well as students wishing to improve their knowledge or prepare for higher studies in the scientific field.
During the lessons, I review the different notions learned at school and try to bring them in a more intuitive and less abstract way. Then we apply these concepts in the exercises.
I also focus on developing a method of scientific thinking, in order to solve future exercises independently.

Having completed my master's degree in computational neuroscience engineering at EPFL, I would be able to help you with your homework, particularly in math and physics.
I am here to listen to your questions and concerns and will help you in a caring manner.
I can help you with both learning your lessons (understood beforehand, of course) and solving your exercises. I will guide you, push you in your thinking so that the answer comes from you!
Having a good foundation in mathematics and physics, I can pass on to you this methodical approach that is required of us.
I would be delighted to have you in my class!

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.

As a master's student at EPFL, I offer support courses to share my experience in mathematics, physics and biology. Whether at the secondary, gymnasium or university level, the sessions revolve around the resolution of exercises and the resumption of basic theory in order to understand the key concepts. These courses can be adapted with a view to preparing for one or more exams in particular. I can also provide help in organization and working methods.

Do not hesitate to contact me to discuss your specific needs and establish a tailor-made program that will perfectly match your learning objectives.

Looking forward to working with you,

Hendrik

I am a student and master of EPFL and I can teach you something, or you can learn more about the course. He is available and motivated. I provide home support courses.

We offer Secondary Cycle students at the gymnasium individualized support focused on the needs of the student, whether for preparation for an exam or follow-up throughout the year.

This has already been an assistant/repétiteur before, it is a great pleasure to teach and it continues this experience. I can adapt to any age.

It will depend on the student's needs. I can teach all subjects of math and physics from the basics to advanced probability and abstract algebra and similarly in physics from the basics of classical mechanics to quantum physics, electromagnetism and so on.

Our institute was founded for a simple reason: to reveal the potential that lies dormant in each of us, even when we struggle to see it ourselves. We all have enormous potential, but are we always able to fully perceive it? Sometimes, daily challenges, stress or lack of motivation can make us doubt our abilities.

With us, each course is a real human experience. Indeed, it is not simply about learning mathematics, physics, chemistry, mechanics, or preparing for exams, but about creating a strong bond of trust between the teacher and the student. This bond is essential to provide a framework where each student feels listened to, supported and encouraged to surpass themselves.

Having obtained my Master's degree in Mathematics from the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology Lausanne (EPFL) in January 2026, I plan to pursue further studies in educational science and didactics, and I am particularly interested in pedagogy and knowledge transmission!

My primary goal is to motivate students with concrete examples and encourage them to rephrase concepts in their own words to facilitate their understanding of concepts that may initially seem abstract.

Depending on the topic, I also share various general study strategies I acquired during my studies, with the aim of fostering independent learning.

Continuing with this focus on autonomy, I strive to find and offer a variety of resources (books, handouts, videos, etc.) to develop intuition and present the material in different ways.

I welcome all suggestions and proposals for improvement!

I am currently a master's student in financial engineering at EPFL, after having obtained a bachelor's degree in electrical engineering. Passionate about mathematics and physics, I am also deeply committed to teaching and sharing knowledge. I enjoy helping students overcome their difficulties and gain confidence in scientific subjects.

Throughout my academic career, I regularly tutored my classmates and worked for several years as a mathematics tutor. I am also a teaching assistant at EPFL for a mathematics course, an experience that has allowed me to work directly with students and better understand their difficulties and the most effective way to support them.

I teach mathematics, as well as physics and chemistry, from primary school to university level.

Physics is often where math meets the real world, and that's exactly where things tend to get confusing: students understand the math but lose track of what it actually represents physically, or vice versa. My goal is to help you build intuition first, then connect it to the formalism, so the equations stop feeling like a black box.

Whether you're prepping for an exam, working through a problem set, or trying to finally understand a concept your teacher rushed through, I'll adapt to what you need. I know how frustrating physics can be when it's taught too abstractly, so I focus on breaking concepts down with concrete examples and simplifying things until they actually makes sense.

I'm a Microengineering graduate from EPFL, where physics was a core part of my training across mechanics, electromagnetism, and optics. I also spent a year tutoring at Phassyl Private Education, working with students across a wide range of ages and levels.

Every session is tailored to your pace: reinforcing fundamentals, tackling exam-style problems, or revisiting a topic that didn't click the first time.
