    Advanced Tutoring in Chemistry, Physics, and Mathematics

    Having conducted international-level experimental and theoretical scientific research for many years (PhD University of Cambridge, National Physical Laboratory, Max-Planck Institute, KUL, and UCL) I offer tailored and adaptive tutoring in mathematics, chemistry, and physics.

    My main focus is in helping those pupils in their final two years of school who are preparing for university. I also specialize in preparing students for the Belgian medical entrance exam by actually solving the problems of all the past entrance exams and providing tips and insight for rapidly homing in on the correct answers.

    My philosophy is that science and mathematics can be related to each person's everyday experience. I try to provide insight and solid foundations so that students will not have to rely heavily on blindly memorizing large sections of their courses.

    About Me

    I'm passionately curious about the world and how it works; I can find interest in just about any subject. My current academic pursuits are in the areas of the philosophy of ideas, zeroth-order logic, molecular genetics, and computer programming; including artificial intelligence.
    Besides academic interests, I enjoy sports of all kinds. I currently play ice hockey in the Belgian national league. I'm also a keen photographer. I only use film and I develop and print my images purely by the 'traditional' method of using a cocktail of chemicals in a darkroom.

    Private lessons in maths and physics. Secondary and university level.
    University professor for 18 years and doctor of applied sciences, I also give private lessons to higher education students and secondary school students. I adapt to the request and level of each student. I can follow the school/university program or push beyond. I favor classical education: 1) understanding of the subject and its importance in the field of study or in everyday life 2) illustration by examples 3) exercises allowing to assimilate well and finally to master the subject I attach great importance to understanding and logical reasoning. I progress with the student by also having him work outside contact hours if he wishes.

    Alessandra
    Top-Ranked Graduate Tutoring – Maths & Physics by Alessandra!
    As an alumna of the European School of Brussels III and a recent First-Class Honours graduate from The Bartlett School of Architecture (UCL) with a Master’s in Engineering and Architecture, I offer tutoring support to students of all levels. I’m especially familiar with the European School curriculum, GCSEs, and the International Baccalaureate, and I teach Maths and Physics at any level. I currently tutor several students and have experience tailoring lessons to individual needs. I teach in English, Spanish, Italian, and German, and I can be contacted in those languages as well as French. Here’s how my lessons work: Once a student reaches out, we schedule a day and time. They send me the topics they’d like to cover, along with any class notes, past exams, or homework. I review the material in advance and prepare tailored exercises so we can make the most of our time together. During the session, we work through everything collaboratively, and I often assign additional exercises or homework to reinforce learning. I take notes live during the lesson on my iPad, and afterwards, I share a complete PDF with everything we covered. If there’s something we didn’t get to, I make sure to finish it and send it over as soon as possible. There’s truly no better feeling than seeing a student gain confidence and succeed in a subject they once found difficult.

    Biology, chemistry, physics, statistics, english, dutch, anatomy.
    Hi everyone, I am a Belgian student, currently, I'm in my first master's year at the KULeuven. I chose a master's in 'Rehabilitation sciences and physiotherapy specialization musculoskeletal disorders'. During my bachelor years, I developed a very good basic knowledge of science subjects and mathematics: I studied statistics for 3 years, molecular cell biology, chemistry, physics, biomechanics, biochemistry and anatomy. The quality of teaching of both the University of Leuven as the high school I went to (Heilig Hartcollege Tervuren) is something I am very happy/thankful for. I would love to share the education and the knowledge I acquired by supporting and teaching you or your child/teen. I would consider it as a sort of study pathway counseling. As I already have a bachelor's degree in one of the highest-ranked universities in Europe, I have a broad knowledge of quite some subjects. I have a lot of experience working with children and teenagers, I have been a leader in a Scout for children aged 12 to 18. I have also been a tutor for 5 years now. I love working with other people as I am a very social, empathic, and motivated person. Don't hesitate to contact me if you have more questions about the topics and fields of study that I can cover, or if you have a special inquiry I currently live in Belgium. Lessons can be taught in English or Dutch. I hope to meet you soon and start working on enhancing those performances! Kind regards, Natalia

    Classes of maths, physics and chemistry in english or spanish. Leuven
    Biotechnologist living in Leuven. I've been teaching since 8 years ago in a funny and effective way. If you want to learn, improve, or just make perfect your Spanish this is for you! Speaking, reading, listening, pronunciation, all you need! Just contact me if you want to know more about myself or how can we manage to do classes

    Lucas
    Mathematics and Science for Secondary Education
    Mathematics and science subjects can weigh heavily on your study career during secondary education. It is therefore important to perform well on this. This can be a challenge for many students, especially in the third grade. In my lesson I try to explain the subject matter to students based on their own course, my old course and extra exercises. The ultimate goal is that the students gain a better understanding of their course.

    Nicolas
    Private math lessons by experienced teacher currently in post
    Hello, my name is Nicolas, I am 35 years old and the public to which I am the most accustomed is that of preparatory classes for the grandes écoles, for mathematics lessons in general. However, I also have experience in preparing students from the second to the third year of the license because of the large number of hours of lessons that I have given as well as the many students followed. My teaching method consists of clarifying the course first, making sure that each definition and theorem is well understood. We then discuss the basic exercises and techniques, and finally, if the course followed is demanding, tackle more complicated exercises or even competition subjects. I have just arrived in Brussels as part of a job at the University and look forward to communicating my interest in science to as many people as possible. My background and my research interests also allow me to intervene in physical sciences or computer science.

    Aurian
    Private lessons in math and science for all levels
    Currently a civil engineering student at KU Leuven, I offer math and science courses for all levels and ages. Whether you're struggling at school or preparing for the math Olympics, or nervous for the engineering entrance exam, I'm here for you. I offer personalized monitoring for each student with an approach adapted to different profiles. My lessons are not focused on dry and indigestible theory, but more on the understanding of key concepts on the one hand, and on the other hand assimilation via exercises chosen according to the student.

    François
    Tutoring Mathematics, Chemistry and Physics and French region of Leuven (secondary)
    I am a student of TEW at the KULeuven and would like to offer my services to high school students who could use some help outside of school hours. Together with my students, I look for the right study approach to fully understand the courses and I try to present the subject matter in a different way so that my students gain more insight into the subject matter. I myself graduated from the Sint-Albertuscollege in Haasrode with a degree in science mathematics (6 hours) and I was raised perfectly bilingual (Dutch-French). I have several years of experience with tutoring, both to children in the 2nd year of high school and to children who are at the end of their high school and will soon be making the transition to further studies. Do not hesitate to contact me if you have any further questions or are interested.

    Jayakrishnan
    Math, Physics, Science, Computer Science, Electronics
    I believe that knowledge is built from basics and deep understanding of concepts with practicality. Any concept learnt with practical application is more important than theoretical knowledge and worth in the long term. With this in mind you can expect me to deliver information in a simple and effective manner for better understanding.

    Emmanuel
    Private lessons in Maths, Physics, Chemistry (in Brussels) - Great experience.
    Hello, A bioengineer by training, I teach mathematics, physics and chemistry in two schools in the Brussels region (upper secondary). I also taught chemistry in exercise sessions at the Free University of Brussels as an assistant (Faculty of Sciences and Solvay Brussels School). Passionate about science and mathematics, it is with pleasure that I give private lessons (maths, physics, chemistry) at home for catching up, strengthening, surpassing or even to prepare for a central jury. Level: primary, lower secondary and upper secondary. My strengths: pedagogy, kindness, search for results and extensive experience in different French-speaking public education schools. My goal: to help my students progress with the aim of seeing them gain (or even regain) self-confidence. I live 3 minutes walk from Beaulieu metro, in Auderghem. Interested ?

    Hemant Kumar
    Learn fundamental to advance physics and mathematics concepts
    Introduction to concepts of physics in a more elaborated and experimentally oriented way for school students is the theme of the class. Concepts of physics are introduced in practical way so you can also relate to concepts. Having a PhD in photonics and optical fiber, students who needed more specialised focus can also contact. I prefer to keep personal classes then a group one.

    Catalin
    Mathematics (at all levels) and high-school Physics. SAT, GRE, and GMAT exam preparation.
    Experienced teacher (international schools and private tutoring) with a Master's degree in Mathematics, currently doing a Master's in Statistics at KU Leuven. I adapt that lecture to the specific needs of the student based on their knowledge and grasp of the concepts. I like to develop analytical and scientific ability along with knowledge in my students, and for that, I use a combination of resources in the form of worksheets, class tasks, and past papers. Last, I believe in the strong ethic of providing feedback to the parents, so that they are aware of their child’s progress.
