A student at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology in Lausanne (EPFL), I am currently in BA5 - third year of Bachelor's degree - in the IC (computer science) faculty.

I have been giving private lessons since 2018 in mathematics, physics, chemistry and life sciences.

Holder of a Bachelor's degree in Biomedical Sciences since the summer of 2021, I completed a 3-month internship in a hospital environment in the psychiatric sector and basic research in neuroscience. I was also accepted-collée (admitted to the competition but the quota places granted limited my entry into medical school) after having completed a national competition that was both selective and elitist to integrate a faculty of medicine: the first year common to health studies. Very difficult in math, physics, organic chemistry and biology.

I was subsequently very involved in collaborative and associative projects to train students for the medical competition, in the first year. I like teaching, making people understand and seeing this moment of light on the student's face for whom everything becomes clear!

***** Procedure during the SUMMER SCHOOL HOLIDAYS (July and August)
for those who want to get AHEAD,
review their BASICS or simply
get back into the swing of things! *****

I have also been giving private lessons in mathematics and physics for 8th grade students at the gymnasium or in preparation for their maturity for 6 years. Many of my students have an ADHD profile, and I always enjoy adapting to the needs of each person, maintaining DYNAMICS in the course and doing interactive exercises so that the knowledge sinks in better. ..

Dynamic, I am myself a studious and serious student. I have gone through the challenges and stress of exams and competitions many times. My goal is to give you confidence and provide you with the appropriate method to succeed in your course.

CURRICULUM
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Student at the Ecole Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne (EPFL), I am currently in BA5 - third year of Bachelor - at the IC (computer science) faculty.

I have been providing private lessons since 2018 in mathematics, physics, chemistry and life sciences.

Holder of a first Bachelor's degree in Biomedical Sciences since the summer of 2021, I completed 3 months of internship in a hospital environment in the psychiatric sector and fundamental research in neuroscience, areas that fascinate me. Initially aspiring to be a psychiatrist, I was passed (admitted to the competition but the quota places granted limited my entry into medical school) after having completed a very selective and elitist national competition to enter a medical school : the first year common to health studies. I was subsequently very involved in collaborative and associative projects to train students for the medical competition, in the first year. I love teaching, making people understand and seeing this moment of light on the face of the student for whom everything becomes clearer!

I have also been giving private lessons in mathematics for 8th grade students at the Gymnasium or in preparation for their maturity for 6 years.

Many of my students have an ADHD profile, and I always enjoy adapting to the needs of each person, maintaining DYNAMICS in the course and doing interactive exercises so that the knowledge is incorporated as best as possible. .
As for cellular and molecular biology, the student asks his questions or I ask him about his course, but I do not discuss the exercises.
Conversely, in mathematics and physics, I explain the intuition behind the formulas and we solve a problem together. I show him the methodology to follow so that he becomes independent.

Dynamic, I am myself a studious and serious student. I have gone through the challenges and stress of exams and competitions many times. My goal is to give you confidence and provide you with the appropriate method to succeed in your course.

Are you taking your resit exams for the baccalaureate in July or August 2026 after failing in June? Do you want to strengthen one or more subjects before your end-of-summer exams?
That's exactly what I'm proposing!

WHAT WE CAN WORK ON TOGETHER:

-Catching up and catching up on failed chapters
-Review and analysis of the June exam (what went wrong, why, how to correct it)
-Targeted revision with typical maturity-level exercises
-Method: time management, writing, presentation of calculations
-Consolidation before the end-of-summer exams

-> I work with high school students who need targeted, effective and structured support — a real refresher course, exam by exam, concept by concept.

WHO AM I ?
My name is Claire, I am a 3rd year Bachelor student at EPFL (IC Faculty - Computer Science) and I have held a Bachelor of Science in Biomedical Sciences since 2021. In 2018, I was admitted to medical school, a very difficult first year covering mathematics, physics, organic chemistry and biology at a very high level of selection, but I decided instead to do EPFL with hindsight on my situation.

I have been giving private lessons since 2018, mainly to high school students, in math and physics. I also have direct experience preparing under pressure for highly selective exams — I know what it's like to have only one chance for a decisive result.

Several of my students have ADHD. I systematically adapt the pace, format, and materials to the individual in front of me.

PRACTICAL DETAILS! PLEASE READ CAREFULLY:

Maximum availability in July, August and September 2026 — fully flexible schedule during the summer.

Home visits are possible from Morges to Pully (variable rate, no car). Lessons are also available at the Rolex Learning Center, the EPFL library (fixed rate).

Feel free to contact me to arrange an initial appointment or ask any questions.

Dear Parents,

You have come here seeking help for your child, and you have made the right decision. Public schools play a crucial role in our education, but sometimes they lack the necessary resources to cater to each student individually.

I, too, experienced a challenging academic journey for this very reason. My struggles were not greater than those of others, but the rigid schedule limited my ability to fully flourish. Fortunately, with the support of my parents, I had the opportunity to attend a private school and fulfill my childhood dream of becoming a chemist.

I am now a chemist who holds a degree from EPFL (Swiss Federal Institute of Technology), and on April 11, 2019, I successfully defended a doctoral thesis in experimental physics at the University of Geneva (UNIGE).

However, all this knowledge is only valuable if it can be effectively communicated. As you know, communication is an essential aspect of teaching. There are teachers who can be uninteresting, and then there are others whose passion is contagious. I have often observed that teachers who manage to ignite their students' interest take the time to provide context for what they teach. This approach often sparks curiosity in students, leading them to engage willingly.

Your child's studies are a serious matter, you are right to look for solutions.

Best regards,
Julien

Master student at EPFL, I would be happy to help you (you or your child) for the subjects where you have difficulties! At university, I have been an assistant in Chemistry for the first years of EPFL for a few years as well as for a course linking mathematics and electronics, called Signals and Systems. So I am used to teaching and explaining concepts to students with difficulties. I also give private lessons to students passing the Swiss maturity or the French baccalaureate. To try to see together the difficulties as well as the misunderstandings: we go back to the lesson together, we do an exercise together and then I let the student do it independently and we review together if he is blocked or if we need to correct.
I would be delighted to be able to help you in all matters, both scientific and literary! :)

I recently graduated with a Master's degree in Mathematics from EPFL, where I also worked as a student assistant for 4 years, notably for the CMS (Special Mathematics Course), the MAN (Upgrade), as well as for several first-year Bachelor's courses. I also served as a corrector for multiple exam sessions and wrote a handout for a course for Master's students in Mathematics at EPFL. Through these experiences, I had the opportunity to support many students in successfully completing their first year, often considered one of the most demanding.

Today, I offer private math lessons for all levels, from compulsory school to the federal maturity, as well as for Bachelor students needing support in subjects with a strong mathematical component.

Passionate about teaching, what I appreciate above all is seeing students' progress, their confidence and their growing understanding. My methodology is based on an intuitive understanding of concepts, through simple and clear examples, as well as structured support in reasoning. I place particular emphasis on solving exercises, because it is through regular practice that we consolidate our knowledge and truly progress in mathematics.

Are you looking for math support for your child in Secondary I? I offer private lessons adapted to the Vaud curriculum, either in person in Lausanne or online.
As an 18-year-old student in a sports-studies program at the gymnasium, I have just completed the mathematics program. This close familiarity with the subject matter allows me to understand precisely where students struggle: transitioning from concrete to abstract calculations, manipulating fractions and proportions, basic equations, linear functions, and plane geometry.
What we work on together:
• The concepts covered in class, based on textbooks and student exercises
• Occasional difficulties or blockages that arise
• Preparation of meaningful assessments and cantonal benchmark tests
• The method: how to read a problem statement, structure an answer, and verify a result
My teaching method: I adapt the pace to each student, I always start with the materials they use in class, and I place equal emphasis on understanding and confidence. Many students fall behind not because of a lack of ability, but because they have fallen behind on a few key concepts. Identifying these concepts and reviewing them thoroughly often changes their entire trajectory.
