Mathematics & Physics | PhD Teacher with 15+ Years of Experience

From 73 C$ /h

Mathematics and Physics are not just about memorizing formulas — they are about understanding how and why things work. With a PhD in Mathematics and Physics and more than 15 years of teaching experience, I help students develop a clear and confident understanding of both subjects.

My lessons are adapted to each student’s level, goals, and way of thinking. I work with school students, university students, and anyone who wants to strengthen their mathematical or physical background.

I teach Mathematics, Physics, Calculus, Linear Algebra, Differential Equations, Algebra, Geometry, Probability and Statistics, as well as exam preparation and problem-solving.

My approach is based on understanding rather than memorization. We work through concepts step by step, learn how to recognize the right method for solving a problem, and gradually develop independent thinking.

I can help you understand challenging topics, prepare for exams, improve your academic performance, or deepen your knowledge of Mathematics and Physics. For each student, I create an individual learning plan based on their level, goals, and needs, with the aim of achieving the best possible results.

I am a qualified and experienced mathematics tutor. Graduated from the Free University of Brussels in 2011, I started my career by teaching remedial courses in different schools in Brussels. I then specialized in individual academic support by following educational training at the Harvard Graduate School of Education. I have been giving private mathematics lessons daily for over ten years.

The students who follow my private lessons benefit from personalized support. The first session is devoted to an in-depth assessment of the student's mathematical knowledge. The objective is to detect its weak points and understand their origin in order to adapt my courses to its needs. I develop a tailor-made remediation program for each of my students aimed at filling each of their gaps. Over the course of the sessions, the student builds a solid foundation for learning and regains self-confidence. At the same time, I help him acquire a work methodology that allows him to gradually become autonomous in his studies.

I have a thorough knowledge of the mathematics curriculum for middle and high school (from 6th to 12th grade). I am also qualified to support students in preparing for international exams such as the SAT, the OMPT, and the International Baccalaureate (IB) in all its variations: Analysis and Approaches (AA SL/HL) and Applications and Interpretation (AI SL/HL).

Throughout my years of training, I studied and developed numerous techniques that facilitate learning mathematics. The strength of my teaching approach lies in my ability to explain, in simple terms, anything a student finds complicated. I am passionate about this profession because it offers me the opportunity to guide struggling students toward success. It is a true pleasure to see them progress and rediscover their connection with the fascinating world of mathematics.

I offer private tutoring in Paris (at the student's home) or remotely (online). My online lessons take place on an interactive whiteboard. This whiteboard is specifically designed to facilitate student/teacher interaction online. Thanks to this teaching tool, my online lessons are just as effective as in-person lessons. The student only needs an internet connection and a computer, tablet, or smartphone to participate.

I understand that not all teachers excel in teaching Engineering and Mathematics courses and explaining their importance to students. Courses with strong mathematical backgrounds may become boring for students who lack a solid mathematical basis. To address this, I take a student-centered approach, starting from the basics to actively engage all students, including those with weaker mathematical backgrounds. I also provide practical examples to demonstrate the real-world significance of what they are learning, inspiring and fostering their interest in the subject matter.

If you have any additional questions before starting a class, please feel free to ask me. I am here to assist! :)

If you’ve ever felt that science and math are difficult, it’s probably because no one showed you how to think like a problem solver.
In my classes, you’ll learn not just formulas or code but how to truly understand concepts, apply them, and build strong logical intuition.

I teach:
• 🔢 Mathematics: From algebra and calculus to applied problem-solving for real-world use.
• 💻 Computer Science: Coding fundamentals (Python, C++), algorithms, and logical thinking for beginners and intermediate learners.
• ⚛️ Physics: Mechanics, thermodynamics, and practical examples that make abstract ideas simple and visual.

As a Software Engineer and Master’s student in Engineering at Nagoya University, I bring both academic knowledge and hands-on experience from real projects. My teaching approach is interactive, visual, and deeply focused on understanding over memorization.

Let’s turn complex problems into clear, step-by-step insights — and make learning something you genuinely enjoy.

An experienced teacher, a graduate of a French Faculty of Science and a Faculty of Medicine, offers private tutoring in Mathematics, Analysis, Matrices, Statistics, Algebra, Physics, Chemistry, and Biology, covering French, Quebec CEGEP, International (in English), and American curricula. I teach students in high school, the final year of high school, the Brevet exam, competitive entrance exams, and university preparatory classes. I also assist students enrolled in CNED (French National Centre for Distance Education) and those preparing for the SAT exams.
The lessons will take place either at home or online using a specific, very modernized method of a shared interactive whiteboard equipped with writing tools where I can write and correct homework with the student, displaying it directly, in addition to using Zoom or WhatsApp for communication (a very practical method, just like at home).
My students' results online for several years have been with grades of VERY GOOD, GOOD and EXCELLENT.
Contact me for more details.

As a teaching professional, I have always enjoyed sharing my knowledge. My goal is to provide quality education. I am aware that some topics may seem complex, but often this is simply the result of an inadequate explanation by the teacher. With me, you will discover a real interest in the material!

We strive together to achieve academic excellence, overcoming the shortcomings and difficulties encountered by your child. Studies will become a pleasant experience for him. In addition to the courses, I can also help with school orientation, identifying their preferences and highlighting the advantages and benefits of a fulfilling educational ambition.

The sessions generally take place according to the following stages:

1️⃣ The first sessions are devoted to the assessment of the student's level in order to detect existing gaps.

2️⃣ Next, we create a personalized plan to address these gaps, including the number of hours of work needed, specific areas to focus on, and appropriate training and development exercises.

3️⃣ We stay in constant contact with the student's class teacher, to keep up to date with the latest requirements and ensure a consistent approach.

4️⃣ Subsequently, I provide exams similar to those that are likely to be asked in class, to prepare the student effectively.

5️⃣ Upon request, I write a regular report, usually monthly, to keep parents informed of their child's progress throughout their course.

I adapt my methodology according to the specific needs of each student, thus offering them a personalized and adapted work approach.

In addition, I offer crash courses for students preparing for the start of the school year, allowing them to start the year well prepared, with a solid lead on the school curriculum.

If you have any questions, do not hesitate to contact me. I will be happy to help you.

Mathematics is the best way to enhance your intellect, create bridges between abstract and reality and find the hidden beauty of life.

Good day, my name is Mike. I'm studying at Shanghai University and I've had the privilege of helping over many peers and other students for 3 years. As an experienced teacher, most of my friends and peers believe that I have been doing quite well.

This course is mainly focused on GCSE tutoring, yet math problems from other legal sources may also be accepted.

By the way, the language for classes is English.

Before you go any further, let me introduce myself.
I come from Shanghai, China. I got 138(A+) out of 150 in English GaoKao.
I have no problem in English communication at all and ranked top 0.1% in the English contest for senior high school students in Shanghai.
Besides, I self-taught myself plane geometry(PG) for just 50 days from scratch and surprisingly aced the entire PG part in the preliminary contest of the CMO.

My methodology is as follows:
1. I can show the definitions/examples of a certain type of problems to you.
2. I offer you some similar problems for training and revision in class, then I analyze them.
3. I don't give homework every time, yet I might offer you some interesting problems to solve or valuable facts to know, as your interest and ability in self-directed inquiry is quite important, whose importance grows as you go on with your academic journey.
4. If you wish to bring your own problems and ask about them first, that's okay.
N.B. Please double-check which examination institution you have chosen and inform me(e.g. AQA, Edexcel and so on).

My approach combines teaching and mentoring, taking a holistic approach to ensure improvements in all aspects of a student's development. I am patient and adaptable to the needs of each student.
I adapt my teaching style to fit each student’s unique needs, helping them build the confidence and resilience necessary to succeed both inside and outside the classroom.

Through my own experiences of overcoming obstacles and achieving success, I’m passionate about helping others do the same.

Let’s work together to ensure you reach your full potential, both academically and personally! So be free to book my classes and look forward to carving a niche for yourself in your life journey!
