I am Mavi, a physics engineer working at an aerospace company.
I have been teaching private lessons at the primary, secondary, high school, and university preparatory levels for 11 years. I teach mathematics, physics, chemistry, and science. I have a good command of the curricula of IB, IGCSE, American, Hong Kong, and international schools.

Additionally, I hold the position of president at the Astronomy Society, where I foster my students' interest in astronomy and science beyond the lessons. I prepare the learning environment by incorporating experiments and exploration, moving away from rote education. I often bring experimental materials to class, aiming to make learning memorable through hands-on experiments.

As an educational mentor, I approach my students as if they were my siblings, valuing creativity. I have a deep passion for mathematics, physics, and science. I am dedicated to helping students understand and learn because life encompasses both SCIENCE and ART. The more people I can inspire to know, understand, and love mathematics, physics, and chemistry, the more proud I am.

Are you curious about how nature works?

If you're looking for an organised and professional teacher to help you achieve your academic goals, look no further! The IB science subjects can be extremely difficult to go through on your own, and I'll be glad to use my experience to help you out.

A couple of things I like to do:

- Initial test or interview to assess your level.
- Use Notion as a platform to share all my resources.
- Use mock papers that lay out the exercises JUST like in the real exams, so you will feel really prepared.
- I give homework when appropriate.
- I provide any kind of mentoring and college counseling. People who study Biology and Chemistry usually want to pursue a clinical career-- and that is a complex process!

The SAT exam is one of the major steps you need to go through in your life; it's a step that is going to determine your college, your university, and your future as a whole. As with a lot of things in life, it can be a hard step, and there is no shame in asking for help. Here comes my role: I will help you overcome your problems and your difficulties. My job here is to help you achieve your desired results and unlock your potential. Simply put, we will go through every lesson, every unit, and every chapter. We will understand the concept of each lesson, with clear examples to follow. After each one, you will be tested, and after finishing your program, you will be tested on it. That's my plan for my students, so if you are interested, you can easily contact me.

Welcome to my profile.
I am an experienced mathematics and science teacher with over seven years of experience helping students strengthen their understanding, improve their results and become more confident, independent learners.
My lessons are designed for students and families who value high-quality, well-prepared and personalised teaching. Rather than offering a one-size-fits-all course, I adapt each lesson to the student’s level, objectives, school programme and learning style.
I teach students who need to rebuild essential foundations as well as those working on advanced topics, examinations or demanding international programmes such as the European Baccalaureate and International Baccalaureate, as well as, the various Belgian programs.

◆ MY TEACHING APPROACH ◆

• • Initial assessment • •
We begin by identifying the student’s current level, strengths, difficulties and academic objectives.

• • Personalised lesson planning • •
Each student receives a structured learning approach based on their specific needs, curriculum and pace of progress.

• • Clear and accessible explanations • •
Complex concepts are broken down into logical, manageable steps, with visual representations and carefully selected examples.

• • Active problem-solving • •
Students are encouraged to think, explain their reasoning and develop reliable methods for approaching unfamiliar questions.

• • Targeted practice • •
Exercises are selected to address specific weaknesses, consolidate knowledge and prepare effectively for tests and examinations.

• • Regular review and feedback • •
Previously studied material is revisited when necessary, and clear feedback is provided to help the student understand what has improved and what still requires attention.

◆ WHAT YOU CAN EXPECT ◆

Professionalism and reliability are central to my work:
• • Lessons prepared in advance and tailored to the student
• • Punctual and well-structured sessions
• • Patient, respectful and focused teaching
• • Clear explanations without unnecessary complication
• • Constructive and timely feedback
• • Adaptation based on the student’s progress
• • A serious learning environment that remains supportive and encouraging

My objective is not simply to help students complete exercises. I aim to help them understand the underlying concepts, develop stronger reasoning skills and gain the confidence required to work more independently.

Mathematics and science can appear difficult when important foundations are missing or when explanations are poorly adapted to the learner. With the right structure, guidance and practice, these subjects become far more logical, accessible and rewarding.

Since the beginning of my higher education, and since I established myself as a freelancer after 10 years of managerial career in the pharmaceutical industry, I have been used to regularly giving private lessons to pupils and students of all levels, Primary, Secondary and Higher, supporting them until they pass their exams.
The main disciplines in which I support students are essentially scientific.
The perspectives provided are transdisciplinary.

I have 17 years of experience teaching science to elementary, middle, and high school students. I am passionate about science education because it helps students build knowledge, develop critical thinking skills, and apply what they learn to real-life situations. I believe that effective science teaching should not be limited to memorization but should encourage students to ask questions, explore ideas, solve problems, and think creatively. Throughout my years of teaching, I have focused on creating interactive, student-centered learning environments where students can connect scientific concepts to their daily lives and become confident, curious, and independent learners.

I offer friendly and personalized home tuition in English, Biology and Science for students in Classes 3–6. My lessons focus on making concepts easy to understand through clear explanations, examples, practice and interactive learning. I adapt each session to the student's level and learning style, helping them build confidence, strengthen their fundamentals and enjoy learning rather than simply memorizing.
