Scientific Coaching: PhD, postdoctoral researcher and scientists

Studying science or doing a PhD in science is particularly difficult and challenging. It is even more complicated considering that finding a job afterward is not easy.
I have been through a PhD in Physical Chemistry, abroad and far from my home country, so I can tell how difficult it is.
Why this class, then?

I want to share with you my experience as woman in science and support your efforts during the PhD or during the search for a new job, providing coaching class and support.

About Me

Hi everyone,
I am a PhD student in Physical Chemistry working in the solar field and renewable energies. I have been teaching for six years now, both when I was a student in Italy and now in Amsterdam. If there is something that I know for sure is that I want to become a professor one day as the most satisfying thing for me is to know that my students appreciate and have fun chemistry after my lessons. Chemistry is not so bad after all!

Education

BSc in Chemistry at La Sapienza University in Rome
MSc in Physical and Inorganic Chemistry at La Sapienza University in Rome (Internship at UvA Amsterdam)
PhD in Physics - AMOLF, Amsterdam (ongoing)

Experience / Qualifications

I mainly focus on general chemistry and chemistry in solution: stochiometry, pH, solutions, gas, oxidation and reduction, electrochemistry

Reviews (1)

I reached out to Loreta because I had to learn a long list of topics in chemistry in order to prepare myself for university, in a relatively short period of time of being only about half a year. Loreta was able to prepare classes for me that not only made it easy for me to understand, but they contained everything I needed and whenever I had issues with something that I didn't understand, she was really helpful and patient with me. She was an awesome teacher for the short period of time she helped me, she made the classes fun and I think if I had a teacher like her in highschool I would've had a much easier time preparing for uni :) Overall I had a great experience with her and I can't recommend her enough
Need to edit or revise a manuscript, thesis or essay? Taking advantage of professional academic editing can help your work reach its potential and increase your chances of being graded higher. I can provide specific feedback and suggestion to improve the quality of your thesis, essay or manuscript.
Chemistry is a widespread subject in many schools, institutes and universities. The first obstacle to overcome this subject is quantitative chemistry, an enormous examination full of notions such as pH, electrochemistry, titrations, redox, atomic and molecular orbitals, colligative properties, gas. I offer lessons on all these topics, both for exam preparation and for a test or class assignment. I combine theory with practice, offering exercises I propose or carrying out those that you bring yourself.

Send a message explaining your needs and Loreta A. will reply soon:
The more detail, the better.
Ex. "Hi, when are you available to meet for a lesson?"

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!

Conflict management & negotiation: communication support for effective and sustainable control
It is a question of putting in place rational and professional tools to defuse conflicts and enter your comfort / security zone. In particular simple and logical techniques, which make it possible to resolve and manage violent situations in a harmonious, efficient and lasting way. The objectives are: 0. Understand and identify the issues / risks then find a balance between empathy and conviction 1. Use interpersonal communication techniques resulting from mediation to defuse tensions and gain distance 2. Dissociate the relational and the nature of the disagreement - Overcome cognitive and psychological obstacles 3. Acquire the techniques of self-defense and mastery without hurting and being injured 4. Face and then defuse difficult behaviors (blackmail attempts, threats, destabilization) or even dangerous with a mediation strategy 5. Develop conflict management and negotiation skills by alternating attentive listening, active speaking and rationality in the face of the limited rationality of the angry individual. Statistically, the progression following these private sessions is quickly noticeable, from 2 or 3 sessions *. (* study 2020) Postgraduate School Training & Ivy league college in the United States, our teacher has specialized and worked for over 13 years, in Europe and North America, in the field of communication and public speaking in renowned public and private international institutions, involved in forums and conferences, and focused on two areas: training and coaching, with the key words pedagogy and careful methodology. PLACES : - Locations: Geneva-Lausanne-Friborg-Neuchâtel-Montreux-Bâle-Sion-Sierre-Morges-Bienne. But currently, only by videoconference in accordance with national recommendations on Covid. These sessions also seem to be perfectly unanimous since they have the advantages of direct (example: quality of the interaction), without its disadvantages (ex: loss of travel time), with additional advantages (ex: of notes on the chat, which can be reread afterwards). In this context, these videoconference sessions for which you have requested me, seem to arouse a certain enthusiasm (and a certain enthusiasm). At your request, I therefore continue to offer them.

Mathematics, Sciences, Algebra, Calculus, Statistics: Higher Education - private lessons.
Need help with math and science (physics, chemistry,...)? As a civil engineer, 31, I am happy to help you! Learn at your pace and with many examples to clarify the learning material. I have years of experience in teaching simple and complex material. The lessons run as follows. First of all, together we look for the student's biggest stumbling blocks. These can be related to the subject matter as well as to the study method. From there, I continue to work at the pace of the student and encourage them to ask as many questions as possible. I also give them tips and tricks, and improve their working methods where necessary. During the lesson I give many examples to make the subject matter more interesting and we solve exercises together. Once the student has mastered the exercises from the lesson, I give some more challenging exercises to also test on the deeper understanding of the subject matter. In this way I try to optimally prepare the student for his / her test or exam. However, learning should also be enjoyable. That is why I always strive for a good relationship with the student through a spontaneous and positive approach. I am also very patient. All this lowers the barrier to ask questions and improves the student's learning process. Are you interested? Do not hesitate to contact me! See you soon! Tim
