About Me

Encouraged by my friends who noticed that I am good at helping students, a year ago I started giving lessons mainly in mathematics, physics and computer science (analysis, linear algebra, analytical geometry, logic, discrete mathematics, modular arithmetic, general physics, computer science and OOP).

Throughout this period, I had the opportunity to work with students of widely varied levels which allowed me to accumulate experience, develop my skills as a teacher as well as improve my teaching methods.

I describe myself as a competent, responsible, organized and punctual, motivated and dynamic teacher, always attentive to his students, all the time in a good mood, and who attaches great importance to making sure that the course takes place in a good atmosphere that promotes learning.
For me, a good student would be a motivated, persevering student who does not hesitate to express it when he / she is in the slightest doubt or confusion.

My teaching method is based on total mastery of the content of the subject in its various aspects. This content is based on the classic course, to which will be added in-depth explanations and examples of different levels of difficulty. Once the student is fairly familiar with the concepts of the course, I assist him in solving the exercises provided by his teachers, while presenting relevant resolution steps and tips. Additional exercises can be provided occasionally if favorable, and an alternation between the course and the exercises is always possible and sometimes even recommendable.
Adapted progress assessments, with remarks, are provided every 12 hours of lessons to help the student identify certain weaknesses, and how to work on them.

Education

Holder of a bachelor's degree in Mathematical Sciences, I followed the Special Mathematics Course at EPFL during the 2018-2019 academic year. After having successfully completed it, I am currently continuing my studies in BA2 in the Computer Science section. Throughout this course, I had the opportunity to study several branches in mathematics (analysis, linear algebra, analytical geometry, logic, modular arithmetic, discrete mathematics ...). I also had the opportunity to take courses in physics (classical mechanics, electricity, magnetism), chemistry, and OOP.

Object Oriented Programming Course in Java language.

56 C$ /h

Do you want to get started with programming but don't know how to do it? Or else do you already have good POO basics and would like to develop them further? This course will provide you with exactly what you need!

For beginners, this course basically consists of three parts. The first is an introduction to object oriented programming where concepts of OOP will be presented and explained to you in great detail. The second part will focus on the practice of these notions in the Java language (It is in this part that you will learn how to program). Learning programming will necessarily require an alternation between theory and practice, so the first two parts are not independent. However, the third part is. The latter will be an implementation of the knowledge that you will have acquired to produce a small program deemed suitable for your level.

For non-beginners who are already comfortable with the basic concepts of OOP and who already know how to program properly in Java, this course will present a little more advanced content and which will consist of chapters alternating between theory and practice :
1 / abstract classes
2 / interfaces
3 / enumerations
4 / exception handling
5 / lambda expressions
6 / functional programming
7 / generic programming
8 / Collections
9 / graphic programming

My name is Noreen, I'm a second-year bachelor's student at HEC Lausanne, and I tutor elementary school students. I'm passionate about sharing the many learning techniques I've developed, and I would be delighted to use them to help students progress with confidence. Patient and calm by nature, I don't hesitate to rephrase or re-explain concepts several times so that each student can understand at their own pace. Lessons can be conducted in either French or English, depending on your needs. I look forward to meeting you and discussing your goals!

I offer academic support and homework help in science subjects (mathematics, physics, chemistry, etc.). I obtained my scientific Baccalaureate with highest honors in 2024 and I am in my second year of engineering at EPFL.

Before each lesson, I like to glance at the chapter or exercises to refresh my memory on certain theorems or formulas if necessary. This allows me to arrive prepared and explain the concepts clearly and in a structured way.

During the lesson, I guide your child step by step, taking the time to re-explain concepts, review the basics if necessary, and help them gain confidence. My goal is not just to solve the exercises, but above all to ensure they truly understand what they are doing and gradually become more independent.

Third-year computer science student offers homework help/refresher courses for science subjects (Mathematics, computer science, biology, physics, chemistry).

My approach is to first understand the student's prior knowledge and solidify the foundations before moving on to more complex concepts.

I can give homework or not, I adapt to the situation and the needs of each student.

Mathematics, physics, English, and French can seem difficult without the right foundation or method. With extensive experience working with students of all ages, from young children to high school and university students, I have designed my lessons as a personalized support system, adapted to each student's level and pace.
You will solidify your foundational knowledge, fill in any gaps, better understand challenging concepts, and gain confidence and independence when tackling exercises and exams. My goal is to make each subject accessible by adapting to each student's learning style.

As a mathematics student at EPFL, after a scientific preparatory class (PCSI) at Lycée Henri-IV in Paris, I have been giving private math lessons since 2024.

For who ?
– Secondary I (CO) students who have dropped out or want to consolidate their foundations
– High school students, including the specific mathematics and physics option, and preparation for the baccalaureate
– First-year students (analysis, linear algebra) at EPFL, UNIL or HES
– Students in the French system (middle school, high school, baccalaureate)

How is a course going?
I start by identifying the real difficulty, because it often stems from a misunderstanding of a previous concept rather than the current chapter. I then explain it simply, and the student practices with exercises until they can do them independently. We can work on upcoming homework and tests, review entire chapters, or prepare intensively for an exam.

The goal: improved grades, but above all a student who regains confidence and becomes independent.

Courses are also available in English, for students from international schools.

I offer tutoring in mathematics, physics, and chemistry, tailored to each student's level and needs. The goal is to review essential concepts and understand problem-solving methods.

The sessions are personalized and can cover exam preparation, exercise correction, in-depth exploration of certain concepts, etc. I favor a pedagogical approach using analogies or real-life situations whenever possible, taking the time to explain concepts in different ways until they are fully understood.

Anastasiia

I have a strong academic foundation in mathematics up to and including Calculus I and II. I also have solid knowledge in physics and chemistry at school level across all grades. With my specialization in chemistry, I have a particularly strong understanding of this subject. As I am currently a student myself, I am very familiar with the learning process and the challenges students face, which helps me explain concepts clearly and in a structured way.

Arsène

I offer weekly, in-person support, with lessons tailored to each student's level and objectives.
The course is entirely dedicated to the student: explanations, exercises, preparation for tests and exams, and review of concepts that pose difficulty.
Thanks to my experience at EPFL in Bachelor of Mechanical Engineering, I can bring an approach particularly focused on reasoning, problem-solving and good working methods.

My method:
• Understanding rather than memorizing: we build the reasoning step by step so that the student can truly understand the material.
• Train effectively: we work on exercises adapted to the student's level and gradually increase the difficulty.
• Gaining autonomy: the goal is for the student to be able to gradually solve exercises on their own and develop good working methods.

Lessons can be organized regularly each week, with a frequency adapted to the student's needs.

Write to me to discuss your goals and check availability.

As a Master's student in Data Science at EPFL, a graduate of CentraleSupélec (ranked in the top 3% of my class) and holder of a Bachelor's degree in microtechnology from EPFL, I offer tutoring in mathematics, physics and computer science, from primary school to university level.
My teaching experience
I was a student teaching assistant at EPFL for 8 courses, working with over 400 students. I currently lead the linear algebra and ICC (Information, Computation, Communication) exercise sessions. Each week, I adapt my explanations to each student's level: that's what I love most about teaching.
What I propose
• Primary and secondary school: consolidate the basics (calculation, fractions, geometry, equations), regain confidence and improve methodology.
• Gymnasium / high school (maturity, baccalaureate): functions, analysis, probabilities, vectors, mechanics, electricity, exam preparation.
• University / EPF / preparatory classes: analysis, linear algebra, probability and statistics, numerical analysis, programming (Python, C/C++).
My method
I begin by identifying the real obstacle: a misunderstanding of the concept, a lack of methodology, or stress. Then, I build the sessions based on the student's lessons and exercises. The goal isn't just to pass the next test, but to understand the material and become independent.
Whether you need occasional homework help, regular support, or intensive exam preparation, I adapt to your needs.

I offer academic support for primary and secondary school children, mainly in mathematics and French, as well as assistance with homework and school organization.

Each lesson is tailored to the student's level, difficulties, and pace.

In mathematics, I can work on, among other things:

* calculation and operations
* problems and understanding of the statements
* fractions, measurements and geometry
* Review of concepts covered in class
* preparation for assessments

In French :

* reading and text comprehension
* spelling and grammar
* conjugation
* vocabulary
* written expression

I can also support the student with their homework, revisions and study methods, with the aim of helping them better understand the concepts and gradually become more independent.

Lessons can be one-off or regular, depending on the student's needs.
