About:

I am an experienced international educator, specialising in IB Diploma Maths AA and AI as well as IGCSE Maths and Physics. I am fully dedicated to enhancing student learning and success in a global context. An IT enthusiast, I am skilled at crafting meaningful online learning experiences that are enhanced by technology. I support IB Internal Assessments and Extended Essays, guiding students to become autonomous in their learning and pay attention to fundamental details of the process.

"My stressed 15 year old daughter needed some timely help with her GCSE maths revision, Hans jumped on board and provided very clear, concise, organised help. It was very reassuring and provided just the support we both needed". - GCSE Student

"Throughout my second year in IB, I found this website and got myself a Tutor for Math, because I found I was struggling and wanted to improve this year. Hans has helped me greatly; he made sure I understood the concept of the problems we were solving before moving on, and instead of moving on to a question with a different concept, we worked with questions that came from the same concept, like Geometry or Algebra, again to make sure I fully understood it and was confident enough to solve it on my own. When it came to the final exams, I felt proud and happy walking out of the tests, instead of sad and disappointed." - IB Student

"Hans has been an great maths tutor. Working with him has really strengthened my understanding of the subject, and now I feel more comfortable when approaching difficult problems. He explains concepts very clearly and always makes sure everything is fully understood before moving on." - IB Student

"I had an incredible experience using TutorsPlus with my excellent Mathematics tutor Hans. He was incredible at explaining and taking time to make sure I understood certain topics that were challenging while remaining encouraging and positive. Maths has never been my greatest subject but Hans never failed to believe in me and in turn helped me push myself. Thank you Hans for all your help and encouragement throughout the last year!" - IB Student

"Hans was my daughter’s IB math AI tutor. I knew Hans was going to be a great fit from our introductory zoom call with him. He is kind and patient. My daughter loved working with. He was the best math teacher she has ever had. He was easy to communicate with. With Hans’ expertise and guidance she was able to get a 7!" - IB Student

'My daughter has found at TutorsPlus very good and helpfull teachers' IB2 Maths AI SL Parent.

Teaching experience and approach:

I hold a Bachelor of Education and have been teaching since 2016, first at primary level before moving to middle school Maths and Physics and High School Maths, specialising in the IGCSE and IB programmes. I am thorough in ensuring that students develop solid, enduring foundations in their maths skills, leading naturally to improved grades and ongoing success in their learning.

I believe that when students discover the knowledge themselves it will endure more to them so my approach to teaching focuses more on discussion that is student-oriented. I also pay attention to detail because in Maths, you can't miss a step and in order to do that I will really make sure that students are solid in their basic math skills and knowledge, which is the foundation to a good conceptual understanding and comprehension.

Qualifications:

  • Bachelor of Education

    I found the staff to be considerate and responsive to our needs. We needed a specific kind of teacher and they sent us one that was better than we could have hoped for. I'm grateful and relieved!

    My 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!

    What 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.

    I 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.

    Hello, 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.

    They 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.

    Great French support in the run up to my DELF exams. I'd highly recommend them for this type of work if you have exams coming up.

    I noticed such an improvement in my comprehension, my approach to unfamiliar concepts and my confidence and comfort with the SL math content after only a few lessons that I really wanted to continue.
