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?

Let's explore together!

Graduated in mathematics and physics, I offer my help to students who encounter difficulties in these two subjects. My approach is to review with them the key points of the lessons and to assist them in their homework, whether at home or through online sessions via webcam.
Do not hesitate to contact me for a first request; I usually respond within 24 hours.
My goal is to help the student understand his course and his exercises, and to guide him on the right path so that he can succeed in his school or university year. I support students of all levels, from 14 years old to the second year of university, in the fields of science, economics or any other field where courses in mathematics, statistics, computer science and physics are exempted.
Classes can be given at home (with a price including the class and travel expenses) or by webcam (with a specific price for the online course).
For rehearsal sessions, I generally recommend between 1 and 2 hours per week, and up to 10 hours per week for intensive review and refresher courses.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

👨‍🎓 With 4 years of experience in distance education, I am a mathematics teacher specializing in support lessons and private lessons. I also teach physics and chemistry as well as scientific subjects in general.

I hold a Master's degree in Operational Research (Applied Mathematics) and I have been teaching private lessons for more than three years, mainly mathematics for middle and high school levels.

✏ I have taught students from different schools, whether public, private, following the French program (mission), Belgian, Swiss, Spanish (students from French-speaking or English-speaking Spanish schools) or American. In summary, all French or English programs.

✏ I support students from A to Z in all stages of their learning, using a simple, new generation and effective methodology: explanation of lessons, summary of lessons, application and deepening exercises, etc.

✏ I also prepare students for exams and competitions.

✏ I also support students with their homework (homework help).

✏ All my students have made extraordinary progress and achieved their goals, with grades of 16, 17, 18 or 19 out of 20.

Sessions usually take place as follows:

1️⃣ The first sessions are mainly intended to assess the level of the student in order to determine the shortcomings noted.

2️⃣ Then we make a plan to fill those gaps: number of hours of work required, parts of the lessons to focus on, lots of training and development exercises, etc.

3️⃣ We make sure to stay up to date with the student's class teacher to track their progress and align our work with what is being taught in class.

4️⃣ Then I provide exams similar to what may be offered in class.

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

I also adapt my methodology according to the needs of each student, which means that everyone has a personalized working method adapted to their needs!

I also offer crash courses for those preparing for the start of the school year, so that they start the year well prepared 💪 and with a head start on the program.🧠

💭 If you have any questions, don't hesitate to contact me ;)

With 7+ years' experience in education, I have coached over 50 students to improve their academic results and boost their confidence in math and physics.

My tutoring services always include a personalized plan for each student. This plan is established during the first session where I like to meet the student, better understand their difficulties and get to know their schedule.

In the first session, we will:

- Get to know each other.
- Understand the student's strengths and identify areas for improvement.
- Understand the student's needs and difficulties.
- Get to know the student's schedule.
- Create a tutoring plan

Typically, sessions take place as follows:
i. Theoretical review of complex concepts in simple terms
ii. Tips for solving problems
iii. Abundance of exercises from my databases (exams, exercises)

If you are interested in my services, please provide the following information when contacting me:

- School system (French Bac, Matu, IB, A-levels)
- Location of tutoring (or video tutoring if applicable)
- Number of sessions per week and preferred days and times of the week (this can also be discussed after the first session, if you prefer)

Check out my profile if you want to know more about me :)

See you soon,
Francisco

Born in Barcelona and a resident of Geneva since 2019, I worked for five years as a biology researcher at the University of Geneva and have over ten years of experience as a private tutor in mathematics, physics, chemistry, and biology for secondary school students (grades 7-9) and adults. My students have consistently achieved excellent results.

I offer in-home tutoring for students preparing for the French Baccalaureate exam (maturité) in the following subjects: mathematics, physics, chemistry, and biology. The goal of my lessons is to provide solid academic support and effective preparation for the scientific Baccalaureate for students experiencing difficulties. I travel directly to the student's home for more personalized instruction and remain available to answer their questions promptly via text or email, even outside of class time. I tailor my lessons to each student's specific needs. My methodology focuses on analyzing difficulties and finding appropriate solutions. I prepare theoretical or practical explanations as needed and select the most relevant exercises to deepen understanding of the academic content. I help students reason and develop logical problem-solving methods, avoiding reliance on automatic responses or rote memorization. The pace of work is, of course, adapted to each student's needs and abilities to ensure optimal learning.

I am a mathematics teacher and I offer additional hours for private tutoring in scientific disciplines. These courses are primarily aimed at middle and high school students in Geneva, whether they attend private or public schools, as well as adults who have passed this level but wish to refresh their knowledge for professional purposes.
Generally, I can begin tutoring within three days of your request. I travel throughout the canton of Geneva using the TPG public transport system, and travel expenses are included in my rates. For long-term support, I can also provide exercises to complete between sessions, which I will correct at home. I am fluent in English for English-speaking students. I am available after my regular teaching hours and also during school holidays and breaks.
Nice to meet you.

I am a dynamic and demanding teacher who gives private lessons in Physics-Chemistry as well as Mathematics.

I graduated from teaching seven years ago, after a masters in physical sciences with honors, and I teach in college and high school since.
I have also been preparing students for the Baccalaureate Science for many years, all of whom have been awarded very good honors.
I also prepare my students for different exams (Matu, Bac, preparation for EPFL, etc...)

I make sure to rework the basics so that the student can progress quickly. It is important to me that my students acquire a solid foundation of knowledge.
I also give effective work methods that will allow him to progress much more quickly and so he can regain self-confidence.

I can travel to the student's home or also conduct the lesson via Zoom/Google Meet.
