About:
I have been teaching Physics for over 30 years and IB Physics since 1995. As an Examiner, Moderator I know every detail of the IB programme. I also train IB Physics teachers worldwide, as an IB Workshop Leader, since 2008. It is important for me to take great care to get to know my students' main challenges and address them. This means that they gain confidence and start to excel in the subject. My students never leave a lesson without a thorough summary of what was achieved and suggestions for independent work ahead of the next lesson. As well as the IB Diploma, I have also taught AP Physics.
"Great service from tutor Plus and marvelous Teachers" - IB2 Physics SL Parent.
'Viviane has been working with my son for a year in the final year of his IBDP Physics studies. We have found Viviane to be an exceptionally knowledgeable and reliable physics tutor. She has a strong grasp of the subject and IBDP Physics syllabus and is able to adapt tutoring sessions quickly to whatever topic is needed, often with little or no advance notice. This flexibility has been particularly valuable to my son. She is also very patient and accommodating, especially when dealing with the inevitable scheduling challenges that come with online lessons. Despite this, she has remained consistently dependable and professional. Overall, she has provided clear, focused support and has been a steady and effective presence in my son’s learning.' IB2 Physics Parent
Teaching experience and approach:
I hold a MSc in Physics and a BSc in Physics and Computer Sciences and have been teaching high school students since 1992. Over the years I have been an IB Physics examiner, moderator, and course outline reader. I am committed not only to Diploma students' understanding of the course. My deep knowledge of the course makes me well placed to guide students to achieve great results from their Physics Internal Assessments, Extended Essays and their final exams.
My students say I am knowledgeable, patient and caring. I am able to communicate complex ideas very clearly and dedicate the time necessary to make sure every student realises their full potential. My lessons always have a clear focus that explicitly addresses the student's goals. This is because I am thorough and detailed in my approach. Each lesson I make sure students finish confident and clear about what they have achieved.
Qualifications:
- MSc Physics
- BSc in Physics and Computer Sciences

ParentMy husband and I had the pleasure of speaking with Alex at TutorsPlus for an Educational Advisory/School Choice session. It was an invaluable conversation, that gave us great insights and perspective to inform our school choice. We have lived in Geneva for many years, but despite having a lot of input from friends & word of mouth, we found the school decisions to be challenging to navigate. This session and the perspective & insights Alex offered were absolutely invaluable. We are now confident in our school decision for our children. I would highly recommend this service to anyone! If you are musing over school options for your children - absolutely speak with TutorsPlus. Thank you Alex & the TutorsPlus team!December 6, 2019 -

ParentWhat can I say about TutorsPlus and the invaluable advice we received from Alex and her team. They provided honest, real and experienced advice that helped us make important educational decisions for both our girls at a critical time for our family. I can honestly say our move to Switzerland was made so much easier based on the service we received from TutorsPlus. Thank you TutorsPlus I cannot recommend you guys enough.December 6, 2019 -

ParentI used Tutors plus for my daughter who has dyslexia. I particularly like that they listened to my needs and paired her with Alan who had experience of using innovative and alternative styles of tutoring to reach her learning style. It was a personal service rather than a blanket service. I was contacted intermittently to confirm all was on track. My daughter ended up telling me that if she had had Alan as a tutor from primary she might actually be quite good at Maths! Just proves the tutor is so important.December 6, 2019 -

ParentHello, I wanted to let you know that my son's IB results came back today and he did very well in maths. Andrea has been his tutor for the last two years, and helped bring him from an "I hate maths" perspective to one where he has been happy to engage again in a subject he used to love.December 6, 2019 -

ParentThey have both been a lifesaver, boosting Eddy’s grades by a couple of IB points, which is no small feat. Both tutors are very knowledgeable and work extremely well with students. They always made an effort to be available even on very short notice. Eddy and I give them both top marks.December 6, 2019 -
