Tutoring Experience

I've been actively tutoring for five years, both online and face-to-face in Vaud. My students span a variety of backgrounds, from local Swiss schools to international IB institutions. The satisfaction I derive from seeing their eureka moments is unmatched. I've had the pleasure of guiding several of my students to top universities worldwide after their IB successes. My familiarity with the IB Chemistry curriculum ensures my lessons are tailored to their specific needs. Many students commend my ability to simplify complex topics, and this has been instrumental in their success in examinations.

Tutoring Approach

Whenever I meet a new student, I start with an icebreaker – sharing a fun chemistry fact! Then, I delve into understanding their needs, aspirations, and current knowledge level. My lessons are interactive, focusing on real-life applications of chemical concepts. I encourage my students to ask questions, no matter how trivial they might seem. We use a mix of textbooks, past papers, and online resources to ensure comprehensive coverage of topics. Furthermore, I firmly believe in the philosophy of "learning by teaching", so I often let students explain concepts back to me, ensuring they've truly grasped them. Lastly, I always end with a recap, ensuring we've met our learning objectives.
