Mathematics and Physics Course | ETHZ Student | For students in high school, college and high school.As a 3rd year physics student at ETH, I offer private lessons in mathematics as well as academic support for middle school, high school/gymnasium and first year university students.
I mainly base myself on the progressive resolution of exercises, to understand where the difficulties come from and to be able to overcome them.
I listen and adapt to the student in order to understand their perspective. I can thus approach problems in the way that suits him best, which allows me to create solid foundations and establish an excellent understanding of the subject.
A progressive approach to exercises and regular practice builds self-confidence and allows for great improvement over the long term!
I have already taught students from:
- Swiss Gymnasium
-French high school and college
- European School
- EPFL
- Paris Polytechnic School
I therefore know the habits of these schools and can easily adapt to the program of the students I accompany.
During lessons via ZOOM, I use a tablet that allows me to write directly on the student's screen.

Private Science Lessons - Mathematics, Chemistry, PhysicsDear 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

Private lessons in maths, physics and tutoring in other branchesMaster's student in physics having obtained the baccalaureate with very good honors (19.8/20 general average) I happily help in learning mathematics and sciences in general which made me want to study at the EPFL and to come to KTH afterwards. I offer to give help lessons in mathematics or physics for all levels (up to the start of secondary studies) occasionally or regularly.
I have previously given lessons to children. Having several young nephews and nieces and having regularly carried out baby sittings, I am used to supervising children.
I can also help with English classes (after having lived for several months in Cambridge, England), French, philosophy or provide comprehensive school support for homework help for children.
I can receive at home, in a room reserved for the KTH library or give lessons by webcam. I can also move if the address is reachable by metro or bicycle.
Do not hesitate to contact me if you are interested.
Hope to meet you,
Iolene

Mathematics for primary and secondary school students or students preparing for competitive examsI offer mathematics courses adapted to all levels, whether for primary school students, secondary school students or students preparing for competitive exams. Each course is entirely personalized according to the specific needs of the student, whether to fill gaps, prepare for an exam, or deepen knowledge. My approach is based on listening and active teaching, in order to ensure a lasting understanding of mathematical concepts. Whether you need help with basic notions or more advanced topics, I adapt to your pace and learning style to ensure effective progress.
Gabriel
Support in Analysis, Linear Algebra and Physics (also for advanced students)Second year physics student at EPFL Lausanne.
The courses are aimed in particular at university students, but also at secondary school students. For those attending EPFL, I can give classes in person. Otherwise, I am also available for online courses. The topics and course delivery are agreed with the students according to their specific needs. They can include both theoretical explanations and the carrying out of practical exercises.
From my own experience, I have found that everyone can understand the most complex concepts, you just need to adopt the right approach and teaching method, which varies from person to person. As it is not always possible to make this important distinction in general courses, my intention is to provide those who need it with help in catching up with the program by filling in gaps and/or doubts. I do not favor a mnemonic approach, but rather a deep understanding of the subject.

Pierre
Graduate professor from the École Polytechnique offers support and in-depth study in Mathematics and Physics for High School and Bachelor studentsI offer both reinforcement and in-depth courses, adapted to the students' pace and the teachers' requirements. With 10 years of experience in individual monitoring and 5 years in front of diverse classes, I do not offer so much academic support as lively and interactive courses, whose key words are kindness and encouragement. Familiar with the Swiss and French programs as well as the IB, I know the frequent and less frequent sticking points that students encounter, as well as the classic exercises that must be redone absolutely and those that go further.
My method:
Understanding and assimilating the course are at the heart of everything, and that is why I particularly insist on this point which often requires filling in gaps from previous years. Concrete illustrations and targeted training then facilitate these famous understanding triggers which allow the student to finally release their full potential. We always proceed in stages: course - classic exercises - more advanced exercises, with obviously homework from one time to the next to anchor the knowledge and develop the autonomy necessary to solve complex problems.
Skills of interest for scientific bachelors:
- in mathematics: basic analysis, linear algebra, differential equations, integration, probabilities
- in physics: point and solid mechanics, electrokinetics, electromagnetism, thermodynamics, geometric and physical optics, quantum mechanics
Sebastien
Private lessons in Mathematics for all levelsAs a Master of Data Science student at EPFL, mathematics is an important part of my academic curriculum. During my studies, I had the opportunity to act as a student assistant at EPFL in various courses in the Computer Science section.
These experiences allowed me to develop a teaching spirit. I really enjoy passing on my knowledge and helping students develop their reasoning skills.
My goal is to make people love mathematics, offer an intuitive understanding of the topics covered in order to guide students towards better results and greater autonomy.
Sabri
EPFL Master Student-Assistant offers support courses in MathematicsI love teaching and have always enthusiastically helped my classmates. I have been giving private lessons since 2016 (around 25 students, including one for Analysis I, EPFL). I am also an assistant for two courses at EPFL (3rd year Bachelor and Master levels), and I co-created and taught the EPFL Advanced Analysis course during the welcome week for new students (Students4Students EPFL).
I strive to transmit my knowledge and my passion for the subject to my students, at a pace adapted to their needs. I think that students who take private lessons have a sincere desire to overcome their difficulties and that we must therefore pay particular attention to encouraging them. It is therefore step by step that I help them understand the material, by developing their intuition of the different concepts covered while ensuring that they fill in their gaps. My students appreciate my clarity, structure, motivation, patience and flexibility.
If you or your child has difficulty with mathematics, do not hesitate to contact me for more information about my courses.
