Difficulties with maths? fun classes for students from primary school to university.

From 153 C$ /h

These are often the judgments received or our thoughts like "I'm not able", "I'll never get there", "You're bad at math ..." that have been blocking us since childhood and preventing us from appreciate this discipline. I invite you to connect math to what you love in life.

The subject can go from primary school to university (except the second and third year of uni in math).

Flexible and patient, I will adapt to your needs.

Extra information

For kinaesthetic children in elementary and secondary school, I have material linking math to concrete or living. (example: color calculation rules for learning operations, use of characters, animals and stories, maps, for multiplication learning, etc.)
For older people, reference to concrete things.

About Me

Passionate about mathematics and teaching, I started working in research, assisting a lot of students in mathematics, environmental sciences, microtechnology and computer science.

From 2011 to 2014, I happily teach high school math (11 to 14 year olds) in a small private school named "Educare alla vita" (Learning to live), based on the development of the student's potential. and not on acquiring knowledge. That's what matters to me the most: that the student gains self-confidence.

By teaching in a French high school from 2016 to 2017, I realize the gap that sometimes separates the natural momentum of young people and what they have to learn; it pushes me to leave public education to focus on private lessons or small groups that meet their real needs.

To reduce stress and increase concentration, I can also give relaxation and concentration exercises.

Education

Master in Math at the University of Geneva in 2003.
PhD in mathematics at the epfl in 2007.
Yoga Teacher Diploma in 2016.
I learned different trades: baker, translator, teacher, etc.

Experience / Qualifications

During my thesis, I supervised several master's work and did assistantship in game theory, linear algebra, geometry, operational research and combinatorics.

Teacher in the school "Educare alla vita" ("Educate to life") from 2011 to 2014 at the secondary level, in Assisi, Italy.

Teacher in the Théas high school in Montauban from 2016 to 2017.

Don't wait for the end-of-first-semester results!
Support your child's learning in Mathematics now to give them every chance in their schooling.
I teach mathematics at a secondary school. I listen to the needs of students and their parents to ensure personalized support. I can assign homework after each lesson if the student wishes to explore the material further.
I support them in preparing for exams.

I am delighted to transmit and share my knowledge and scientific know-how to advance and make children want to learn. Having completed a scientific preparatory class and a large engineering school, I am also a mother of 4 children.

My great ability to listen and adapt allows me to help my students progress.

I am a physicist and PhD researcher at the University of Geneva, with several years of experience teaching physics at university level and providing private tutoring in physics, mathematics and chemistry.

My academic background includes degrees in Physics and Solid-State Physics, as well as a background in Industrial Chemistry. This allows me to teach science subjects from secondary-school level up to university courses, while adapting the level of explanation to each student.

I can help with:

* Physics: mechanics, electricity and magnetism, waves, optics, thermodynamics, modern physics and introductory quantum physics
* Mathematics: algebra, functions, calculus, trigonometry, vectors and problem solving
* Chemistry: general chemistry, physical chemistry and introductory university chemistry
* IB, Maturité and international-school programmes
* University physics and mathematics courses
* Exam and mock-exam preparation
* Revision of previous-year material
* Homework, exercises and problem-solving techniques

My approach is based on understanding rather than memorisation. I first identify where the difficulty comes from, then rebuild the relevant concepts step by step before applying them to exercises and exam-style problems.

Because I also teach university students, I place particular emphasis on developing a clear method: how to interpret a problem, identify the relevant physical principles, organise a calculation and check whether the final result makes sense.

Lessons can be adapted either for students who are struggling and need to rebuild their foundations, or for stronger students preparing for demanding exams and advanced courses.

I teach in English, French and Italian.

Online lessons and in-person lessons in the Geneva area are available.

I am registered here to teach math / economics for all levels. I already give lessons mainly to high school students and I specialize in CFCs and Matu Pro (I know by heart the accounting and math programs that I personally followed a few years ago).
I hold a bachelor's degree in economics from HEC Lausanne and I have been giving private lessons for more than 5 years now.
You will be welcome at my place for lessons, which I will prepare in advance if necessary, and we will resolve together any problems/difficulties you encounter in math and accounting. I also have a lot of resources, tests, notes, corrections that I have preciously collected/kept and which will be very useful to us for the resolution of your exercises.

I offer academic support and homework help in science subjects (mathematics, physics, chemistry, etc.). I obtained my scientific Baccalaureate with highest honors in 2024 and I am in my second year of engineering at EPFL.

Before each lesson, I like to glance at the chapter or exercises to refresh my memory on certain theorems or formulas if necessary. This allows me to arrive prepared and explain the concepts clearly and in a structured way.

During the lesson, I guide your child step by step, taking the time to re-explain concepts, review the basics if necessary, and help them gain confidence. My goal is not just to solve the exercises, but above all to ensure they truly understand what they are doing and gradually become more independent.

The world of mathematics is abstract and demanding. To navigate it, creating logical connections between the concepts studied becomes essential. From algebraic manipulation to linear algebra, this support aims to help students reconnect with mathematics by giving them the necessary tools to find their own way. In this way, long-term academic success becomes possible.

Having graduated with a high school diploma specializing in Mathematics and Physics, receiving an award for excellence as well as an award for advanced mathematics, and currently pursuing further studies in mathematics at EPFL, I will leverage my years of experience in academic support to achieve my goal: to show students that mathematics can be enjoyable when studied effectively. This enjoyment will be the cornerstone of their academic success.

Mathematics, physics, English, and French can seem difficult without the right foundation or method. With extensive experience working with students of all ages, from young children to high school and university students, I have designed my lessons as a personalized support system, adapted to each student's level and pace.
You will solidify your foundational knowledge, fill in any gaps, better understand challenging concepts, and gain confidence and independence when tackling exercises and exams. My goal is to make each subject accessible by adapting to each student's learning style.

I have a strong academic foundation in mathematics up to and including Calculus I and II. I also have solid knowledge in physics and chemistry at school level across all grades. With my specialization in chemistry, I have a particularly strong understanding of this subject. As I am currently a student myself, I am very familiar with the learning process and the challenges students face, which helps me explain concepts clearly and in a structured way.

As a Master's student in Data Science at EPFL, a graduate of CentraleSupélec (ranked in the top 3% of my class) and holder of a Bachelor's degree in microtechnology from EPFL, I offer tutoring in mathematics, physics and computer science, from primary school to university level.
My teaching experience
I was a student teaching assistant at EPFL for 8 courses, working with over 400 students. I currently lead the linear algebra and ICC (Information, Computation, Communication) exercise sessions. Each week, I adapt my explanations to each student's level: that's what I love most about teaching.
What I propose
• Primary and secondary school: consolidate the basics (calculation, fractions, geometry, equations), regain confidence and improve methodology.
• Gymnasium / high school (maturity, baccalaureate): functions, analysis, probabilities, vectors, mechanics, electricity, exam preparation.
• University / EPF / preparatory classes: analysis, linear algebra, probability and statistics, numerical analysis, programming (Python, C/C++).
My method
I begin by identifying the real obstacle: a misunderstanding of the concept, a lack of methodology, or stress. Then, I build the sessions based on the student's lessons and exercises. The goal isn't just to pass the next test, but to understand the material and become independent.
Whether you need occasional homework help, regular support, or intensive exam preparation, I adapt to your needs.

• Targeted training based on progressive exercise series and sample exams.
• Transmission of effective working methods, organizational tips and rigorous writing skills.
• A caring, patient teaching approach adapted to the pace of each student.

Details and locations:
• Home visits possible (Lausanne, Renens, Morges and surrounding areas).
• Courses are also available on the EPFL campus or remotely via videoconference.

Available on weekdays (late afternoons/evenings) and weekends.
