Maths and physics for all levels (IB, IGCSE, university) with an ETH Zurich maths master's student (EN/FR)

From 92 C$ /h

IN :
I teach all levels, from secondary school through university, mainly in maths and physics. I'm currently doing a master's in the Mathematics Department at ETH Zürich, after a bachelor's in Aerospace Engineering from TU Delft (Netherlands).

Lessons taught in English or French only.

I prepare students for international curricula: IB (Maths AA/AI, both HL and SL), IGCSE and A-Levels, as taught at Zurich's international schools (ZIS, ICS, SIS, Lycée Français, and others), as well as the French baccalaureate (maths and physics-chemistry specialisms). At university level, I help with engineering maths (Calculus 1 & 2, differential equations, linear algebra) along with statics and dynamics, subjects I covered extensively during my degree, including for ETH and UZH students following courses taught in English.

Depending on what's needed, I can introduce new concepts, consolidate material already covered in class, or prepare for exams through mock tests and past papers under real conditions. I adapt to each student's learning style to make sessions as effective as possible.

When I was a young child, I believed I was not a mathematical person.

It wasn't until I met an amazing teacher at age 15 that I discovered my mathematical genius and my life was changed forever.

I'm eternally grateful to that teacher.

My teacher knew that self-image and self-belief is the key to unlocking your child's mathematical abilities.

Everyone is good at maths, but we all have different styles of thinking.

Bad teachers teach every child the same way.

My job is to find your child's style of mathematics and allow him to discover that for himself.

When he discovers that, he will begin to enjoy the beauty and power of mathematics...and then you will see as the grades begin to soar.

Have you been staring at the equations that the teachers write as if you were looking at hieroglyphs on the wall? Do you feel stuck when you are confronted by your exercises, not a single idea coming to mind? My name is Bastien, I studied Physics for my Bachelor's at EPFL and a Master's in Quantum Engineering at ETH. During my studies, I was a Teaching Assistant for classes in Electromagnetism, Fluid Dynamics, Analysis, and Special Relativity. I also gave private lessons to students in need before their exams. Through these experiences, I discovered that no matter your level we all tend to get stuck in front of math equations at one point or another. We get lost in the details and seem to be unable to see the big picture, to understand where all of this is going, and why any of it is useful at all.

In these classes, I want to help you deal with these issues. It doesn't matter if you are in middle school, high school, or starting your Bachelor's. The goal of these classes is to help you cultivate the skills needed not only to improve your grades but also to be a better problem solver. I will help you develop your passion and curiosity for mathematics. The passion that you maybe never knew you had! We will look at mathematics not as a monolithic entity but as a language. Ultimately, mathematical excellence can be decomposed into four primary skills: memory, patience, curiosity, and creativity. During this class, we will:

🟢 Assess in which areas you are struggling

🟢 Come up with a plan tailored to your needs

🟢 Fill in the gaps in your understanding

🟢 Stay up to date with the content of your classes

Mathematics in the end is not about the mathematics themselves. It is about the problems they allow us to solve and the language they give us to confront them.

If you have any questions about this class, my availability, or pricing, please don't hesitate to contact me. Click the blue "Contact Bastien" button above and let's discuss!

Math ans Physics can be a real burden for some students, the target of this class is exaclty making them bearable and help the students find their own way into the subjects.
The priority will always be the student feeling comfortable in studying and finding the best way to approach Math.

The lessons will be targeted on the specific level of the students and the objectives will be defined together at the beginning of the classes.
