Dear student,

I am a chemist graduated from EPFL (Swiss Federal Institute of Technology). I have always been fascinated by science and now I hold a doctorate in solid-state physics from the University of Geneva.

Science subjects can help you pass exams. I have been teaching these disciplines for many years during exercise sessions held at the University as well as in private lessons given as an independent.

For this reason, you will have the possibility to ask me for explanations on any subject. It is indeed useful that you can progress on the basis of what you already know. You will of course have the choice to ask me for remedial lessons to revise or discover entire chapters. Before the first lesson starts, I will invite you to explain your situation to me freely and free of charge so that we can work effectively from the first lesson.

All scientific subjects have in common a method that is called "scientific logic". Whenever the opportunity arises, I will offer you elements of this method because it is this method that will allow you to understand durably and to solve the exercises rigorously.

Your studies are serious business, demand that you be taken seriously.

Best regards,
Julien

The math, physics, chemistry, and SVT courses of the Swiss maturity program and gymnasium or French programs are done by either in-depth explanations or by a quick course and summary of essential needs according to the case of each student supported by exercises from the book or evaluations and exams from other high schools.
Special program for Matura and Terminales.
As well as for (students in international and European Schools in English, they can have support in Math, Physics, Chemistry and Biology).
For the start of the academic year in Switzerland, support courses for EPSU and ECUS exams.
For the first university year, support courses in Mathematics - Analysis - Matrices - Statistics - Algebra - Geometry - Physics - Mechanics - Electricity - Chemistry - Organic Chemistry - Biology, Geology.
My experience is too long and for years I have learned methods for each case and for each student to fill in their gaps with the best results of Excellent, Very Good, and Good as mentioned by my students.
I can also help students to better prepare for courses and support them to better prepare for the duties of CNED in science subjects.
Guaranteed response within minutes up to 10 hours maximum.

Professor based in Lausanne and having taught in an engineering/business school and at the university, I have been accompanying students for more than 20 years, from secondary to higher education: preparation, engineering school, university, gymnasium.

As a real referent in home and online lessons, having followed more than 2000 students (see the reviews on my profile), I currently work between Paris and Lausanne (Switzerland) due to my professional obligations.

*I accept new students depending on my availability (please contact me via Apprentus)*

My network of pupils and students comes from various backgrounds, whether they encounter difficulties or come from the best establishments (Louis Le Grand, Henri IV, Ginette, Polytechnique, Saint Gall, EPFL Lausanne, McGill, .. .).

My convincing and verifiable results testify to my qualified and competent approach for all levels (high school, college, gymnasium, preparatory classes, ...).

> Which students is my support aimed at?
I offer my help to students in difficulty or wishing to progress, from secondary school and from different sectors:
Professional
Specialized
Gymnasiums
Higher education (university, engineering school, etc.)

> Why use my teaching services?
My teaching and program mastery
Taking my courses on a regular basis will considerably increase the chances of admission to higher education schools as well as to the training courses of your choice.

My practical experience in pedagogy and the results mentioned above are the result of a rigorous methodology based on the following points:
1) Prior preparation of lessons and exercises, no loss of time: 100% performance.
2) Transmission of the right methodology: there are no stupid questions! My students can ask me the same question as many times as they want. What matters is finding a solution and avoiding dragging out difficulties.
3) Patience and a smile in all circumstances, proximity.
4) Courses can overflow reasonably without problem.
5) A follow-up by SMS or other (I am available if the student has specific questions).

Teaching experience:
- Universities and scientific and economic colleges.
- Private and public high schools.
- Profile requested by school heads because of my dual skills in mathematics and physics-chemistry. I am also involved in adult training for professional retraining.
Curriculum vitae :
- MP preparatory classes.
- Central School.
- Master and DEA in applied mathematics (Bac+8).
- Teacher in high school, business school and science faculty.
- 10 years of research (private sector).
- Finance sector.


Lessons subject to my availability.
Possibility of group courses in Lausanne and Geneva

The duration of face-to-face courses is 1h30 minimum.

I remain at your disposal to answer all your questions.

I am resident of Founex and I work as a PhD researcher in Astrophysics at the Geneva Observatory in Versoix. I have 2 years of teaching experience in Physics and Mathematics at the University of Leeds, UK along with 1 year of private tutoring in Chemistry.

To get a firm grasp on a difficult topic, I believe it is essential to start with the basics and then to work towards the core of the problem. A curriculum focused on independent thinking and steady practise will be taught to the student. Whether the goal is to prepare for an exam or homework; lessons will be altered to match the individual's needs. Mock Test/Exams will be conducted at regular intervals.

I hope to share my excitement and passion for natural sciences and mathematics with the students in an open and 'there is no such thing as a difficult problem' way!

I am available to teach students at my home in Founex or travel to location a few kilometers around Founex or Coppet. I am also available to teach via zoom or skype.

I am a second-year master's student at EPFL, in biology. I offer support courses in mathematics, physics, chemistry and biology. The course offers a possibility of help for students having difficulties in the proposed courses. The student will find a framework where he can ask these questions, discuss methodologies and improve. Putting my knowledge at the service of other people is a plus that I like to share.

I am at your disposal if you have any further questions.

Hello,

I am a graduate of EPFL in chemistry and molecular biology, and a professor of chemistry. I offer support courses in chemistry for the level of Maturity level DF. The classic chapters I cover are:

- The different types of chemical bonds (Lewis, etc.)
- Organic chemistry (stereochemistry and reactivity).
- Chemical balances (Le Chatelier's principle).
- Stoichiometric calculations.
- Acids and bases.
- Redox (batteries, Nernst equation, electrolysis, etc.)
- Chemical kinetics.
- Thermochemistry.
- And other chapters of the program.

I already have several years of experience in this branch with excellent results, both with students in the gymnasium and as free candidates. I am a very pedagogical and patient person. If you have any difficulties or shortcomings, do not hesitate to contact me.

Greetings.

I hold a Master's degree in Biomedical Sciences from the University of Geneva and I currently work in a start-up. Throughout my studies, I regularly tutored students, both in individual lessons and in small group classes, within the context of academic support associations.

Being passionate about science, it is a pleasure for me to be able to pass on my knowledge to my students alongside my professional projects.

Regarding my course:

First and foremost, during the first meeting with my student, I try to assess their level, to see their strengths and the elements they could improve regarding their work method!

Secondly, I propose a work plan that I adapt to their level and learning style. Every student is different: my role is to adapt my teaching to their needs.

In general, I base my work on the lessons and exercises that the student receives as part of their school curriculum, but if necessary I give additional homework in order to consolidate the basics seen in class and to allow them to practice more.
