Struggling with math, physics, or chemistry? You're not alone — these subjects are hard, and classroom explanations are rarely enough.
I offer personalized tutoring for middle school, high school, and early university students following the French Mission curriculum, the Moroccan national curriculum, or the international baccalaureate.
Topics covered:

Mathematics: algebra, geometry, calculus, trigonometry, probability
Physics: mechanics, electricity, optics, thermodynamics
Chemistry: organic, inorganic, stoichiometry, reactions

My approach:
I don't re-explain the textbook — I identify exactly where your understanding breaks down and fix it from there. Each session is built around your specific difficulties, not a preset program.
I completed CPGE (Classes Préparatoires aux Grandes Écoles) in Mathematics and Physics before graduating as a State Engineer — I know these subjects at an advanced level and I know where students typically get lost.
Individual and small group sessions available. Online (worldwide) in French, Arabic, or English.

As a dedicated tutor with extensive experience in preparing students for standardized exams such as the SAT, GMAT, and SSAT, I understand the unique challenges that each of these tests presents. My approach is comprehensive and focuses on building a strong foundation in critical areas such as Mathematics, Quantitative Reasoning, Verbal Skills, and Analytical Writing. Each program I develop is tailored to the specific requirements of the exam, ensuring that students are well-prepared and confident on test day.

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.

If you're looking to master the SAT, GMAT, or SSAT with confidence, I invite you to book a session now. Together, we will develop a customized learning plan that suits your individual needs, ensuring that you are not only prepared to face the test but also equipped to excel and reach your highest potential. With my guidance and your commitment, we can achieve outstanding results. Let’s embark on this journey to success together!

With 5+ years of experience teaching students in international schools (IGCSE, GCSE, A-level, IB), I offer clear, structured tutoring in Mathematics, Chemistry, and Physics. My lessons focus on clear explanations and the core ideas behind each topic, so things actually make sense, which helps students with both content mastery and exam success.

For exam preparation, I shift focus to exam technique: you'll learn how mark schemes work, how answers are graded, and how to phrase responses clearly so you don’t lose marks because of wording, even when you know the content.

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.

Preparing for your IGCSE Chemistry or Physics exam and not sure where to start?
I can help you review important concepts, strengthen your problem-solving skills, and develop effective exam techniques so you can approach your exams with greater confidence.

I have a Bachelor’s Degree in Secondary Education major in Physical Science and several years of teaching and tutoring experience in Chemistry, Physics, and General Science. I have experience helping students understand challenging scientific concepts and prepare for assessments and examinations.

Our lessons can focus on:
• Reviewing difficult Chemistry and Physics topics
• Identifying and improving weak areas
• Solving IGCSE-style examination questions
• Learning how to approach calculation problems step by step
• Understanding scientific terms, principles, and formulas
• Practicing multiple-choice and structured questions
• Reviewing common mistakes and misconceptions
• Developing exam strategies and time-management skills
• Preparing for school tests, mock examinations, and final exams

Chemistry topics may include atomic structure, bonding, the periodic table, chemical equations, stoichiometry, acids and bases, rates of reaction, energy changes, organic chemistry, and other topics according to your syllabus.

Physics topics may include forces and motion, energy, electricity, waves, thermal physics, light, magnetism, and other areas covered by your syllabus.

My teaching approach is structured, patient, and personalized. Rather than simply memorizing answers, I help you understand the concepts and learn how to apply them to unfamiliar questions. For calculations, we will practice identifying the information given, selecting the correct formula, showing the necessary working, and checking the final answer.

I can also create personalized practice questions and review exercises based on the areas you find most challenging. We can adjust each lesson according to your upcoming examination, current level, and specific syllabus requirements.

Whether you are starting your revision early or have an exam coming up soon, we can create a focused study plan and work through your most important topics together. My goal is to help you feel prepared, confident, and capable of tackling your examination independently.
