About Me

Hi! I am a passionate and down-to-earth tutor specializing in Mathematics, Physics, Chemistry, and Science. I consider myself a simple guy who loves sports and holds a deep appreciation for home and family.

My goal is to make scientific subjects accessible, engaging, and less intimidating for students. I know that math and physics can sometimes feel overwhelming, but with the right guidance and a logical approach, anyone can master them.
To me, teaching means allowing students to truly understand the material rather than just applying formulas blindly.
My approach is very relaxed yet academic, and I adapt easily to each student's unique situation. I enjoy working with every type of student because I believe everyone is special, and I honestly learn something new in every single lesson too!

My method is structured to guide you step-by-step:
- Theory & Comprehension: We start with the basics to make sure you understand the concepts.

When I was a young child, I believed I was not a mathematical person.

It wasn't until I met an amazing teacher at age 15 that I discovered my mathematical genius and my life was changed forever.

I'm eternally grateful to that teacher.

My teacher knew that self-image and self-belief is the key to unlocking your child's mathematical abilities.

Everyone is good at maths, but we all have different styles of thinking.

Bad teachers teach every child the same way.

My job is to find your child's style of mathematics and allow him to discover that for himself.

When he discovers that, he will begin to enjoy the beauty and power of mathematics

...and then you will see as the grades begin to soar.

Renzo Diaz — IB Math (AA/AI) and Physics (SL/HL) tutor, online in CET. Teaching IB one-to-one since April 2016. M.Sc., Politecnico di Milano.

Ten years teaching IB Math and Physics one-to-one, every lesson myself, and I publish the results I can prove:
• a final 7 in IB Physics SL (May 2025, from a 3, the first exam session of the new syllabus)
• a final 6 in IB Math AI HL (May 2025, from a 4)
• Grade 7 in both IB Math AI SL exam papers (May 2024, from a 3)

How I teach: bring the question your child keeps getting wrong. I find the first step that isn't reliable — a missing concept, a misread graph, an algebra slip — rebuild the explanation around how your child thinks, then change the question to check the fix holds. Each week starts from what is live at school and last week's wrong answers.

IB Mathematics: Analysis and Approaches (AA) — algebra, functions, calculus and proof, Paper 1 without a calculator and, at HL, Paper 3. Applications and Interpretation (AI) — modelling, statistics and the graphic display calculator. AA or AI, SL or HL: I help families decide from the university courses the student is aiming at.

IB Physics, SL and HL, on the current guide: the five themes, Papers 1A, 1B and 2, data-based questions, uncertainties and graphs; at HL, the extensions and the long extended-response questions. My engineering training (M.Sc., Politecnico di Milano) shows in how I teach it: define the system, state the assumptions, then connect the model to the mathematics.

The IA and the Extended Essay: guidance only, within the IB's academic-integrity rules — the student writes every word.

I have worked for 6 years now with kids from international schools who were "hating" maths because the methods used by their IB teachers were too complicated and hard to understand.

I believe that no one is "not mathematical", we just have to find the way to approach the subject together; I have indeed a few teaching methods that can be adapted to a kids' needs, I believe every kid needs a different method to fully understand the subject.

I provide 3 types of lessons that represent 3 phases:
1. THEORY - Understanding the theory behind the exercises, this phase is the shortest since I believe that to fully understand maths you need to exercise.
2. EXERCISES - Doing exercises divided by subject we. just went through in the theory part.
3. PAST PAPERS - Going through past papers to "simulate" a potential exam.

Dividing the process in 3 phases has proven really effective in succeeding not only during the year but also at the final exams.

I promote independent progress through practical exercises, methodological advice and regular follow-up.

Before/After the lesson:
To maximize effectiveness, sessions are prepared in advance with the student. This preparation includes creating materials for the lesson, outlining the key moments of the session, and monitoring the student's progress.

During the lesson:
The beginning is dedicated to reviewing previous concepts and verifying prior knowledge. Next, time is devoted to understanding new concepts, which will be tested through appropriate exercises. Finally, the correction of these exercises will allow for an assessment of the student's progress.

Having coached 100+ students from more than 10 universities worldwide, I have developed a strong understanding of the homework expectations, assessment methods, and exam styles commonly used in university-level mathematics courses.

One of the biggest challenges students face in university calculus is the transition from high school mathematics. Differences in curriculum, notation, problem-solving approaches, and calculator usage can create significant knowledge gaps that make it difficult to keep up with the course material.

I help students identify and close these gaps by strengthening the underlying mathematical foundations and developing the skills required for success in higher education. Whether you are struggling with prerequisites, falling behind in lectures, or aiming for top grades, lessons are tailored to your specific needs and course requirements.

I provide comprehensive support in Calculus I, II, and III, including:

- Limits and continuity
- Differentiation and applications of derivatives
- Integration techniques and applications
- Sequences and series
- Multivariable calculus
- Partial derivatives and multiple integrals
- Vector calculus and related topics

I can help you understand assignments and prepare for exams, build the confidence and understanding needed to excel throughout your university studies.

I graduated with a perfect 45/45 in the IB Diploma and achieved 7/7 in both Biology HL and Chemistry HL. I also have over 3 years of teaching experience.
In this class, I’ll share the strategies, techniques, and exam approaches that helped me achieve those results.
This class is focused on more than simply reviewing the syllabus. We will focus on how to approach IB science questions, apply your knowledge effectively, maximize marks, and consistently perform at a 6–7 level.

What we will focus on:
- How to approach difficult IB-style questions
- Strategies for moving from a 5 to a 6 or from a 6 to a 7
- How to understand command terms and what questions are really asking
- How to structure answers to maximize marks
- Data analysis, graphs, calculations, and experimental questions
- Common mistakes that cost students marks
- Time management and exam strategy
- Challenging 6–7 level Biology HL and Chemistry HL questions

We will work through challenging IB-style Biology and Chemistry questions step by step, focusing not only on what the correct answer is, but why the markscheme awards marks for it and how to recognize similar questions in an exam.
Whether you are currently working toward a 6, trying to push from a 6 to a 7, or simply want to become significantly stronger in IB Biology HL or Chemistry HL, this class will give you a clear and practical strategy for maximizing your exam performance.

Course description

Maths makes sense when you can see it. In my lessons I use visual teaching aids like diagrams, graphs and step-by-step sketches to show why a method works, not just how to follow it. Students understand faster, and because they've seen the idea rather than memorised a rule, it stays with them long after the lesson, right up to exam day.

I have over a year of teaching experience, and I'm friendly and patient. Students are encouraged to ask any question, even the basic ones, and if an explanation doesn't click, I'll try a different one until it does.

A-Level Maths

I cover the full A-Level syllabus: algebra and functions, trigonometry, differentiation and integration, vectors, statistics and mechanics. We build understanding first, then practise with past papers so students know exactly what to expect in the exam. Lessons follow your exam board, whether that's Edexcel, AQA or OCR.

Homework help

We work through homework together, so students learn how to solve the problem rather than just copying the answer. The goal is for them to handle the next assignment on their own.
