PhD in Economics (ULB & Berkeley), 8 years of university teaching — mathematics, statistics, economics

From 99.24 C$ /h

My courses are aimed at upper secondary, bachelor's and master's students who are studying economics, management, business engineering, political science or social sciences, and who are experiencing difficulties in quantitative subjects.

Specifically, I will assist you with:
— prepare for a specific exam (statistics, econometrics, mathematics, microeconomics, macroeconomics, financial mathematics) by reviewing the material in a structured way and working on targeted exercises;
— to catch up on gaps in your basic knowledge that are blocking your progress in a more advanced course;
— write your final year dissertation: choice of methodology, data processing, document structure, critical review.

Each program begins with an initial session during which we precisely identify your obstacles and define together a realistic work plan—estimated number of sessions, priorities, deadlines. This prevents you from paying for unintended hours.

Lessons take place at my home in Saint-Gilles, or online via Zoom, depending on your preference. Evening and weekend availability. Lessons are offered in French, Italian, or English.

About Me

Ciao ! I am Carolina, 48 years old, mother of two young girls. I live in Brussels (Belgium) since 2011.

I was born in Spoleto (Umbrie, Italy) and grew up in Rome. I left Rome in June 2002, after a MSc degree in Economics from the University of Rome "La Sapienza" (2001) and a short internship at the Ministry of Economics and Finance. Since then, I've been working and living abroad.

In the period 2002-1010, I work as a consultant/economist in various institutions -- private companies, governmental and non-governmental organisations -- located all around the world (the most relevant ones: Financité in Brussels; InterSOS in Afghanistan, Pakistan, and Angola; MicroSave in India; SafeSave in Bangladesh; IFAD in Rome).

In the years 2011-2021, I work full-time in the academia, starting with a four-year PhD, joint-degree between the University of Mons (UMONS) and the Université libre de Bruxelles (ULB) in Belgium, financed with the Belgian Action de Recherche Concerteé (ARC) fellowship. Then, for three years I am postdoc researcher at the University of California, Berkeley (U.S.A.), and at the ULB, thanks to a scholarship from the Belgian Fund for Scientific Research (F.R.S.-FNRS). Finally, I work for four years as an assistant professor at the Faculty of Economics and Business of the University of Groningen (RUG) in the Netherlands.

From January 2022, I am working as freelance university lecturer. Currently I teach courses in finance at the Université libre de Bruxelles and at the University of Groningen.

Doctoral teacher in math offers mathematics courses in different fields. I am proud to make mathematics interesting to students who don't like it. And then they were able to pass their math classes.
I have a PhD in applied mathematics. My passion is teaching, and I would love to teach next to my main work. I'm teaching in English and French. Depending on your address and flexibility, we can have a useful time with each other.
I am bilingual: English and French

An engineer by training, I have been supporting students of all levels, in mathematics and beyond, for 10 years.

My classes aren't just about explaining formulas: I strive to convey a work method, self-confidence, and a positive approach to learning. Together, we'll work on gaining a deeper understanding of mathematical concepts, but also on becoming more organized, managing stress, and progressing independently.

👉 What I propose:

- Clear explanations adapted to your level

- Practical and structured exercises

- Helps with memorization and organization

- Stress management and mental preparation before exams

- Regular and personalized monitoring

It's September, the start of the new school year: the perfect time to get off to a good start and give yourself the best possible chance. Getting support now will allow you to approach the year with confidence, with a solid foundation and an effective working method.

My goal? For you to succeed in math and gain peace of mind, so you can progress in school and beyond.

Passionate & empathetic teacher. I have a Master's in Physics with honors from the University of Leicester (which was featured at the time as a top 5 Physics university in the UK by The Guardian) and a - french - European School diploma in which I achieved 90% in Physics and 85% in Maths.

Helping others understand difficult topics and skills is something that I am very passionate about as an empathetic person. I have 5 years of experience teaching Physics and Maths to kids from unprivileged backgrounds both in a homework schools as well as via private teaching.

In my classes, I aim to:

- help students achieve better grades in exams/tests in all branches of Physics & Maths
- clearly explain and break down topics
- give context and or example applications of topics (to improve understanding and memorization)
- help with ADHD & other learning disabilities
- give practical advice for university applications (eg. UCAS in the UK) and discuss the exciting Physics research/work and projects you can work on later in life.

Physics has a plethora of useful and fascinating applications, from the detection of Gravitational Waves and Gamma-Ray Bursts to the development of novel Medical Imaging techniques and Nano-technology (eg: smartphones). It is a subject that I am very passionate about and I hope to make use of my years of experience and extensive knowledge to help you understand and love the subject! My lessons will always be tailored to the individual needs of the student, so please do not hesitate to contact me if you have questions!

I like to explain mathematics both to students who have more difficulty conceptualizing its fundamental notions as well as to those who understand them more easily.

I strive to present mathematics in an intelligent and understandable way. Indeed, the clarity of explanations is one of the most important aspects to consider when teaching mathematics.

Also, I am aware of the stress that students sometimes feel and therefore I make it a point that students do not feel any stress from a math class but rather that they work to their best of their abilities in a relaxed and pleasant setting.

Mathematics and science subjects can weigh heavily on your study career during secondary education. It is therefore important to perform well on this. This can be a challenge for many students, especially in the third grade. In my lesson I try to explain the subject matter to students based on their own course, my old course and extra exercises. The ultimate goal is that the students gain a better understanding of their course.

Hi, I’m Ross, an analyst and policy advisor for the UK civil service, currently on a yearlong career break. I’ve been a maths tutor on and off since I was a university student.

I’m offering virtual tuition and I’m very flexible with which days for the week and time of day.

I have a BSc in Economics and A Level Mathematics and have experience as a teaching assistant at a Secondary School, supporting KS3 and GCSE students and specifically supporting neurodiverse students. I have been working in analysis, applying mathematics and economic skills for 8 years since graduating.

I have very positive 1:1 tuition experience with students at KS3 and GCSE level. I have supported students who struggle with mathematics and need support navigating basics, as well as supporting students who are looking to stretch and excel, aiming for the highest grades.

My approach is very flexible and patient. I am happy to be led by the student’s needs, working alongside their school curriculum, reviewing work and supporting with homework. I’m equally happy preparing work and exercises based on my assessment of their needs.

I have experience tutoring maths, however my academic experience with economics and geography means I’m more than happy and capable supporting these subject including at A Level standard. Also happy to provide examination practice for 11+ and applications for University and navigating the UCAS process. I am happy also to provide career advice and share my public sector experience to now.

Please enquire if there are specific subjects/processes you are looking for support with.

Many students need personalized help to make progress in certain subjects. I have the knowledge as well as the teaching skills to enable your child to progress and even, yes it is possible, to enjoy learning. I already help children with homework so I have good experience in academic support.

I know how to talk to young people, I am very patient and I have a real desire to help your children progress. Naturally caring and empathetic, I try to always remain positive and give the child confidence in his abilities.

I adapt to the needs of each student and offer personalized support to monitor the work carried out and check that the results agree with the educational objectives set at the start of the support work.

If you are in primary or middle school:
I can help you solve math problems, understand the topics better (and even start enjoying them),
prepare for exams, improve your grades,
figure out how to study effectively, and choose the right study materials.

At the end of the month, we can evaluate your progress together.
For 15 years, we have achieved great results with many students.

What do you think? Shall we get started?

Throughout my school career, I have acquired a rigorous working method and a real ability to adapt to different levels and subjects. I myself have benefited from good academic support, and today I would like to pass on these keys to success to students who need them.

What I propose

Homework help/Academic support for primary, middle/high school and higher education students (in my field of study).

Academic support in various subjects: French, mathematics, history-geography, languages (French, English, Spanish), as needed.

Organization and work methodology: learn to plan, summarize effectively, and revise methodically.

Regarding the course structure, the goal is to adapt to the student and their needs. It is entirely possible to:

-help the student with his homework by providing educational support
- review lessons for a test/exam
- explore a concept seen in class in more depth
- work on a working/learning methodology

Of course, this can also be defined by the time of the school year (holidays, approaching exams, etc.)

Mathematics can often feel complex and overwhelming, but with the right approach, it becomes much more manageable and even enjoyable. My goal as a tutor is to help students not only understand the material, but also find the learning method that works best for them.

I work with students at school level, SAT level, and university level, supporting them in building a strong foundation and progressing confidently through their subjects.

My teaching approach begins with identifying each student’s gaps in understanding. I then provide clear explanations using simple language, structured steps, and relatable examples. Once the concept is understood, I guide students through practice, allowing them to apply what they’ve learned and develop real confidence in problem-solving. Many of my students see improvement within a few lessons.

I also create personalized exercises tailored to each student, helping reinforce knowledge and target specific weaknesses.

Beyond improving grades, I focus on helping students:
• Gain confidence in mathematics
• Develop logical and structured thinking
• Learn how to approach problems effectively

Having worked with students from diverse backgrounds and levels, I adapt my teaching style to each individual, ensuring that every student feels supported and motivated.

My aim is not only to help students succeed academically, but also to help them better understand how they learn and approach challenges with confidence.
