About Me

I'm a Swiss-American student who completed her Bachelor's degree in Biomedical Engineering at the Ecole Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne (EPFL) and Master's degree in Biomedical Engineering at Johns Hopkins University in the USA. I'm now doing my second Masters at Tsinghua University in Beijing.

I love teaching, and plan to become a university professor after my PhD. For now, I hope to be able to share my academic success with my students so that they can have all the success they deserve!

Education

Bachelor's degree in Biomedical Engineering from the Ecole Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne (Switzerland)
Master's degree in Biomedical Engineering from Johns Hopkins University (USA)
Master's degree in Biomedical Engineering from Tsinghua University (China) - July 2025

Experience / Qualifications

Assistant for 5 university courses at EPFL (2x biology, 2x analysis, 1x mechanical physics)

Taught physics online to a 16-year-old student for 1 and a half years, raising her average in the subject from 4/6 to 5/6.
This mathematics course is offered for all levels, from children to university students. With a Bachelor's degree in Engineering from the Ecole Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne (EPFL) and a Master's degree in Biomedical Engineering from Johns Hopkins University in the USA, I have studied all types of engineering related math in depth. I've also been an assistant for several courses during my time at EPFL, and tutored a 15-year-old student for 1.5 years online. This course is offered mainly for students to help with understanding their lectures and/or as homework help. Together, we'll go over concepts you're still struggling with, and practice with exercises selected especially for you.
With a bachelor's and master's degree in biomedical engineering from the world's top universities, I offer classes to help you understand all biology concepts! Whether you're in high school or university, I'm ready to provide tutoring in the form of extra lectures, going over your classes, and practice exercises. During my years at EPFL, I was an assistant two years running for the general biology course, as well as 3 other courses. As a student myself, I know the techniques that make us really understand concepts, and pass our exams! I'm patient and love teaching - whatever your goals may be, I'm sure we can achieve them together!
