Experience
After my Ph.D. I did research in gravitational waves in Brasil and the USA. I had the chance to participated in the first detection (sept. 2015). In Parallel to the research, I taught. I gave (and still giving) tutoring in mathematics, physics, french (more than 5year of experience). I also have 5 years of experience teaching physics at different universities (Switzerland UNIGE, Brasil INPE, and the USA at UF). Now I am teaching Math, Physics, and French. I prefer to limit the levels (6th-12th grade) or the beginning of college. (prices are determined by level). Methodology: Each class is 1h The first class is free! We discuss to determine your level, your difficulties, and your objective. We usually start working in this class too. Next classes: I adapt my technique to your level to your learning style (I have now enough experience to present the same information in the best way for you). I usually follow the student material. For french I have A1-C1 methods available. If you prefer I can teach in French, English, Spanish and Portuguese (I lived and gave classes in all these countries: USA/Brasil/Spain/Switzerland)
