From the Black Death to COVID-19, epidemics have done more than spread illness — they’ve reshaped societies, restructured power, accelerated science, and transformed how we live. In this personalized, one-on-one course, we’ll examine the global history of disease and uncover how outbreaks have built and broken systems across time.

Using primary sources, historical documents, visual media, propaganda, art, and medical texts, we’ll explore how different societies understood, feared, fought disease, and what those responses can teach us about the modern world.

Each lesson focuses on a specific disease or pandemic, such as:
- The Black Death and early public health
- The Spanish Flu and wartime censorship
- Cholera, sanitation, and the modern city
- Tuberculosis and the romanticization of illness
- HIV/AIDS, activism, and inequality
- COVID-19 in historical perspective

What you’ll gain:
- A deeper understanding of disease as a force in world history
- Tools to analyze historical sources and narratives
- Connections between past and present public health responses
- Insight into how memory, fear, and resilience shape our collective story

This course is ideal for students of history, public health, or anyone curious about how disease has helped build — and challenge — the modern world.

Ich studiere Computer Engineering an der RWTH Aachen und biete individuelle Nachhilfe in Mathematik, Physik und naturwissenschaftlichen Grundlagen an – von den ersten Grundlagen bis zur Oberstufe und zum Abitur.
Besonders wichtig ist mir, dass Schülerinnen und Schüler den Stoff wirklich verstehen, anstatt Formeln und Lösungswege nur auswendig zu lernen. Ich erkläre Zusammenhänge Schritt für Schritt, passe Tempo und Schwierigkeitsgrad individuell an und arbeite gezielt an den Stellen, an denen noch Unsicherheiten bestehen.
Wir können gemeinsam:
- aktuelle Themen aus dem Unterricht aufarbeiten,
- Hausaufgaben und Übungsaufgaben besprechen,
- Wissenslücken systematisch schließen,
- uns auf Klassenarbeiten, Klausuren oder das Abitur vorbereiten,
- und schwierige Themen mit zusätzlichen Aufgaben festigen.
In Mathematik kann ich unter anderem bei Algebra, Gleichungen, Funktionen, Geometrie, Trigonometrie, Analysis, Vektorrechnung und Wahrscheinlichkeitsrechnung helfen.
In Physik unterstütze ich unter anderem bei Mechanik, Elektrizitätslehre, Energie, Schwingungen/Wellen und weiteren schulischen Themen.
Durch mein Ingenieurstudium beschäftige ich mich selbst intensiv mit höherer Mathematik, Physik und technischen Anwendungen. Daher kann ich bei Bedarf auch fortgeschrittenere Schülerinnen und Schüler sowie Studienanfänger in mathematischen Grundlagen unterstützen.
Der Unterricht kann auf Deutsch oder Englisch stattfinden und wird individuell an das Niveau und die Ziele des Schülers bzw. der Schülerin angepasst.
Mein Ziel ist, dass Mathematik und Physik nicht mehr wie eine Sammlung zufälliger Formeln wirken, sondern Schritt für Schritt logisch und nachvollziehbar werden.

Hi, my name is Federica and I am an astrophysicist. I obtained my PhD from ETH Zürich and, for over ten years, I have been working in international research teams, contributing to space missions such as ESA Euclid and NASA Roman, and collaborating with scientists from all over the world.

For more than ten years, I have also been active in teaching, tutoring and science communication. In my teaching approach, I consider it essential to listen to the student, understand their needs, and identify the way they reason and learn best. This is key to creating a truly personalised learning path that motivates them to engage with the subject and gradually take on more advanced learning challenges.

I helped several students to strengthen the foundations, identify strategic points early, and progressively work towards more advanced problem-solving and exam preparation.

I do not believe in a standard “one-to-many” lesson, but rather in a learning path designed to genuinely consolidate the student’s knowledge, help them become progressively more independent, and make them aware of the practical and interdisciplinary applications that a particular subject can have in their academic journey.

I am fluent in Italian and English, and I am currently strengthening my knowledge of French. Thank you for your attention.

Having a deep understanding of the test formats and question types allows me to provide personalized strategies that target each student's individual strengths and weaknesses. I believe that every student has a unique learning style, and my goal is to enhance their test-taking skills while improving their time management. By fostering a supportive learning environment, I aim to boost students' confidence and empower them to achieve top scores.

My tutoring sessions incorporate a variety of effective methods, including real exam questions and timed practice tests. This hands-on approach allows students to familiarize themselves with the types of questions they will encounter, making the actual exam feel less daunting. I teach proven techniques for tackling even the most challenging problems, ensuring that students feel equipped to handle any question that comes their way.

One of the key components of my tutoring is helping students develop effective study habits. I provide guidance on creating a structured study plan that maximizes their preparation time and aligns with their personal goals. This structured approach not only keeps students on track but also helps them build a sense of accountability, which is crucial for success.

In addition to academic preparation, I also focus on the psychological aspects of test-taking. Many students experience anxiety leading up to exams, which can affect their performance. I teach relaxation techniques and mental strategies to help manage stress, allowing students to approach their exams with a calm and focused mindset. By addressing both the academic and emotional challenges of test preparation, I equip students with a well-rounded toolkit for success.

Feedback is an essential part of the learning process, and I make it a priority to provide constructive and actionable insights during our sessions. After each practice test, I conduct a thorough review of the results, highlighting areas for improvement while also acknowledging progress. This continuous feedback loop helps students understand their growth and keeps them motivated throughout their preparation.

My commitment to student success goes beyond just teaching content. I aim to inspire a love for learning and self-improvement in each of my students. Many of my former students have gone on to achieve their academic goals, securing places at prestigious universities and programs. Their success stories are a testament to the effectiveness of my tailored approach and the dedication I bring to each tutoring session.

Ich studiere Computer Engineering an der RWTH Aachen und biete individuelle Nachhilfe in Mathematik, Physik und naturwissenschaftlichen Grundlagen an – von den ersten Grundlagen bis zur Oberstufe und zum Abitur.
Besonders wichtig ist mir, dass Schülerinnen und Schüler den Stoff wirklich verstehen, anstatt Formeln und Lösungswege nur auswendig zu lernen. Ich erkläre Zusammenhänge Schritt für Schritt, passe Tempo und Schwierigkeitsgrad individuell an und arbeite gezielt an den Stellen, an denen noch Unsicherheiten bestehen.
Wir können gemeinsam:
- aktuelle Themen aus dem Unterricht aufarbeiten,
- Hausaufgaben und Übungsaufgaben besprechen,
- Wissenslücken systematisch schließen,
- uns auf Klassenarbeiten, Klausuren oder das Abitur vorbereiten,
- und schwierige Themen mit zusätzlichen Aufgaben festigen.
In Mathematik kann ich unter anderem bei Algebra, Gleichungen, Funktionen, Geometrie, Trigonometrie, Analysis, Vektorrechnung und Wahrscheinlichkeitsrechnung helfen.
In Physik unterstütze ich unter anderem bei Mechanik, Elektrizitätslehre, Energie, Schwingungen/Wellen und weiteren schulischen Themen.
Durch mein Ingenieurstudium beschäftige ich mich selbst intensiv mit höherer Mathematik, Physik und technischen Anwendungen. Daher kann ich bei Bedarf auch fortgeschrittenere Schülerinnen und Schüler sowie Studienanfänger in mathematischen Grundlagen unterstützen.
Der Unterricht kann auf Deutsch oder Englisch stattfinden und wird individuell an das Niveau und die Ziele des Schülers bzw. der Schülerin angepasst.
Mein Ziel ist, dass Mathematik und Physik nicht mehr wie eine Sammlung zufälliger Formeln wirken, sondern Schritt für Schritt logisch und nachvollziehbar werden.

Hi, my name is Federica and I am an astrophysicist. I obtained my PhD from ETH Zürich and, for over ten years, I have been working in international research teams, contributing to space missions such as ESA Euclid and NASA Roman, and collaborating with scientists from all over the world.

For more than ten years, I have also been active in teaching, tutoring and science communication. In my teaching approach, I consider it essential to listen to the student, understand their needs, and identify the way they reason and learn best. This is key to creating a truly personalised learning path that motivates them to engage with the subject and gradually take on more advanced learning challenges.

I helped several students to strengthen the foundations, identify strategic points early, and progressively work towards more advanced problem-solving and exam preparation.

I do not believe in a standard “one-to-many” lesson, but rather in a learning path designed to genuinely consolidate the student’s knowledge, help them become progressively more independent, and make them aware of the practical and interdisciplinary applications that a particular subject can have in their academic journey.

I am fluent in Italian and English, and I am currently strengthening my knowledge of French. Thank you for your attention.
