I base my methodology on reasoning, logic and comparison with concrete cases from everyday life. But I adapt the course according to the needs of the student, so we can also orient the course purely and strictly towards passing a particular exam.Tip: the sooner you start, the higher the chances of success! Don't wait until the day before the exam to start your learning :-)

About Me
Translated by Google. Click to view original.
I have a lot of experience in the field of education, I gave lessons in different circumstances ranging from a private lesson for a student, a group of 4 students, to give lessons in an audience of 400 people.I am very comfortable in chemistry, and I am patient and aware that it is not everyone's favorite subject. I take the time to explain calmly, to clarify the context of the subject studied, and I especially adapt my explanations and the intensity of learning to the will and the ability to learn of the student.
I can give lessons to simply pass an exam, to find a good working method or to better understand and love chemistry, anything is possible, and I have already experienced all these different situations.
Little anecdote: the hardest private lesson I gave was to my little brother, not because he didn't pay me, but because he hated chemistry. But he finally passed his exams in 1 year and 3 attempts.

Private lessons in math, physics, chemistry, computer scienceI have been a doctoral student at UCLouvain since 2018 in climate sciences. I therefore offer private lessons in everything related to science and math. This provides assistance in passing an exam but also a university course. I would be happy to help you as best I can.

Private course in mechanics - electro-statistics for future physiotherapistsThe aim is to remedy the shortcomings inherited from secondary school in mathematics, biomechanical mechanics and electricity which too often form an insurmountable obstacle to students who are otherwise perfectly capable of entering the profession of physiotherapist.

Christian
Tutoring Mathematics, Chemistry, Physics (exact subjects).I am Christian, graduated in chemistry from the University of Utrecht (Biomolecular sciences), and have a PhD in developmental biology (PhD). In the meantime I have been providing tutoring and exam training in mathematics, chemistry and physics to HAVO and VWO students, but also to HBO and Cambridge international A-level students. And, maybe I can help you too!
The lessons are given online, but do this in a personal and lively way. For example, I use a marker and whiteboard, which makes the atmosphere comparable to if I were in your home. There are various reasons why a student would like tutoring, and everyone has their own way of learning. I am always very involved in the student's goals and progress, and I am personally optimistic and approachable in nature. My experience is that a safe and motivating atmosphere is created during lessons, which is contagious and, in addition to understanding the material, I also see students' self-confidence grow.
In addition to tutoring, I am a part-time artist (painter and musician), and perhaps my creative, enthusiastic attitude seeps through in how I view science subjects. Sometimes science subjects are experienced as heavy, difficult, boring or rigid. Or maybe you were unlucky with a teacher who couldn't or can't show you the fun in it. You will find that when you understand more about it, you will enjoy it more and you can also get good grades.
I'd love to get to know you!

Zhasmin
GCSE Chemistry, Biology and Maths Masterclass - Ace your GCSEs!While I am passionate about my subjects, I understand that not everyone is ecstatic about studying. There's no point teaching simultaneous equations to a struggling student if it isn't on the GCSE Maths Foundation syllabus!
Depending on grade that the student is aiming for/predicted I will:
●spend the first lesson with students going through their exam board syllabus, make it explicit what content is the core of the course content and structure lessons in descending importance
● (for higher level students) spend the first lesson with students going through their exam board syllabus, identify the weakest links and structure lessons in ascending order of skill
I believe in spaced repetition so revisiting topics taught before is a must!
This will manifest in the form of:
●surprise questions during the first 10 minutes of lessons
●helping prepare and working through past papers when it comes closer to exam time to encourage active recall.
During normal lessons, there will be a mix of:
●theoretical teaching
●helping the student digest, understand and store useful information that has been presented
●visual aspects (diagrams)
In order for students to efficiently absorb knowledge, I will teach one core topic per lesson.
Top Tip if you want to get the most from me: Ask questions! I aim to have a friendly environment in lessons, I am not your teacher - I am your helper!
