Polytechnician (X) on Master's internship at EPFL gives mathematics lessons at all levels
I am currently an engineering student at the École Polytechnique de Paris and am currently completing my Master's program at EPFL in Lausanne. I offer private mathematics lessons, both in person in Lausanne and online, to high school students and university students (Bachelor's degree). I acquired solid teaching experience through a 6-month internship in colleges and associations (tutoring, homework help, co-facilitating exercise sessions), as well as by regularly giving private lessons. My method My goal is to support each student in a personalized way: understanding of fundamental concepts, strengthening acquired skills, working methods, exam preparation, etc. I adapt to the level and pace of each student, combining rigor, pedagogy and kindness. Typical course outline A class typically begins with a discussion to identify current challenges or goals. We then review key concepts and put them into practice through progressive exercises. I also offer additional materials if needed, and a brief debriefing at the end of the session. What I propose ✅ Mathematics courses in Lausanne (in person) or remotely ✅ For high school students or EPFL students / Bachelor in science or engineering ✅ One-off or regular monitoring (refresher courses, revisions, exams, projects, etc.) ✅ Available weekdays from 6 p.m. and all day on weekends
