Mathematics and Physics tutoring for all students (primary school, middle school, high school and university)

From 24 C$ /h

The idea of these lessons is to help students with their homework and doubts regarding the classes that they are taking on maths or physics. It is normal to face difficulties with these topics, I believe that as an engineer I have a more practical approach towards these subjects, which allows me to teach the student in such a way that he can easily remember and appropriate knowledge. I hope to do this a fun experience to enable the student to fall in love with these subjects.

About Me

I am a really passionate student. My main interests are mathematics, physics, programming and history. I was a teacher assistant at my home university for over two years and a half, giving lessons, designing problems and correcting student work. I like students that want to learn and that have the desire to succeed. I don't mind questions and will do my best to help my students to avoid frustration and get not only knowledge but also guidance. My biggest hope is to share my passion with my students.

I was born and raised in Bogota, Colombia. I arrived at Milan in september 2024 to study my master's degree as part of a double degree program at Politecnico di Milano. I studied my bachelor's degree in mechanical engineering at "Universidad de los Andes" in Bogota. The master's degree I am currently studying is also on mechanical engineering.

Introduction to Python: Loops, Functions and Applications

26 C$ /h

The idea of these lessons is to get a first approach to python, one of the most used programming languages worldwide due to its friendship with the user. This course will present the basics of it by beginning with the installation of the compiler, going on to the variable types, loops in python, functions and finally presenting some simple useful libraries to plot graphs, execute mathematic functions and do some data analysis. This course is designed after the structure that was used at my university during the introductory course to programming.

I would like to highlight that this course has a strong emphasis on logic since this is a fundamental tool to extrapolate what I will try to teach you to other programming languages such as excel's visual basic. I hope to be able to transmit my passion to the student in a fun and safe environment.

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.

Math can sometimes be tough. You might think you’re not good at it, but you are not the problem. With the right teacher, you can understand it too. You just need to choose properly. With me, you won’t just do exercises — you’ll truly understand them. You’ll develop a logical mind, and after our lessons, you’ll be able to move forward on your own.

Having worked with over 100 students across various international curricula, I provide a high-level, integrated approach to the core STEM subjects: Mathematics, Physics, and Chemistry. My lessons are tailored to the specific mark schemes and requirements of IGCSE, GCSE, and the IB Diploma (SL/HL).

Mathematics: From IGCSE Extended/Additional Math to IB Math AA/AI (HL & SL). We focus on logic, function analysis, and the critical "investigative" style of exam questions.
Physics: Mastering the laws of physics, from Mechanics and Waves to Electromagnetism and Atomic Physics, with a heavy focus on the mathematical application of formulas.
Chemistry: Bridging the gap between theory and the lab. We cover everything from Atomic Structure and Stoichiometry to Organic Chemistry and Energetics.

Because I teach all three, I help students see the connections, like the math in Physics or the physics in Chemistry, making the entire STEM workload feel more cohesive and less overwhelming.

I provide the clarity needed to handle the high volume of material in these curricula, ensuring easy understanding and perfect preparation for top-tier grades (9s in IGCSE or 7s in IB).

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.

Any subject math/physics related if it's taught before college. If I don't quite remember it, I will naturally study it before classes.
For college courses although I naturally know them, I wouldn't feel so comfortable teaching them.
If you have any doubts don't think twice before texting:)

Do you find maths hard? Maybe you can follow the steps and get the right answer, but the moment a question looks slightly different, you're stuck.

I have always believed maths feels hard when you can't see it intuitively. If you don't understand the concept, you might still solve the problem, but you haven't really learned it. That is why the formulas fall apart under exam pressure.

How I teach?
I build every topic from the ground up. Before we touch a formula, you should know why the topic exists and what problem it solves. I use visual aids to show the maths in action: what a distribution actually looks like, what a confidence interval is really telling you, why a regression line sits where it does.

Each lesson combines concept building with practice. Once the idea is clear, you work through problems while I watch where your reasoning breaks down, and we fix it at that point. Practice sets between lessons give you the repetition that makes it stick.

If you are preparing for an exam, send me your syllabus, past papers and problem sets before the first lesson so I can build sessions around the exam you are actually sitting. If you are learning for your own interest, we set the pace and direction together.

Who this is for?
University students in economics, finance, management or engineering preparing for an exam or resit, professionals who need statistics for work, and anyone who wants to understand maths properly or start enjoying it.

What topics do I cover?
Descriptive statistics, probability and distributions, hypothesis testing, confidence intervals, linear and multiple regression, time series basics, and the statistics components of finance and economics degree courses.

If you want to understand the concepts and not just memorise them, book a lesson.
