About:
I have been tutoring Maths and Science with Tutorsplus for over 10 years in both English and French and am known for quickly making a difference in my students' learning and results, "exceeding expectations". I am able to take students beyond what they think they can achieve and restore a joy for learning Maths and Science where it may have been lost. I have extensive experience guiding students through all areas of the IB including Internal Assessments and Extended Essays, as well as tutoring iGCSE, A Level, AP and SAT.
'My daughter worked with Andrea for her iGCSE maths, as she'd only ever done maths in French. In just a few lessons, Andrea was able to get her up to standard and she achieved a good grade in the exam. Andrea was very professional in her approach taking time to understand my daughter's needs--and then making the lessons enjoyable and stimulating. Many thanks for your help!' IGCSE Parent
“Andrea has worked with both our sons on math, as well as various science subjects. She is a great and patient tutor, making sure they understand the basics inside out so they are able to progress to the next level confidently. Both of our children have seen an improvement in their grades, and we are grateful.” - IB Parent
'She is always ready, and knows exactly what to teach and how.' IB1 Physics Student
"I highly recommend Andrea as a tutor! My daughter has been working with her for a while now, and we’ve seen a noticeable improvement in both her confidence and performance in math and physics. My daughter often mentions how great Andrea is at explaining complex concepts in a way that’s easy to understand. Andrea’s patient and encouraging approach has really made a difference, helping my daughter feel more confident tackling challenging material. We’re incredibly grateful for her support and guidance!"
"I had Andrea for IB Maths SL and Biology HL. She was a great help and was able to explain larger concepts on a smaller scale so they were easier to understand. It greatly improved my abilities and certainly was reflected in my grades. Moreover her attitude was very professional and helped me concentrate on what was important." - IB Student
'Tutors Plus are truly exceptional! I cannot rate the company and teachers highly enough. 2 of my children have had lessons regularly and my daughter who is now studying Medicene says she would not have made it without the excellent tutoring support she received for IB Math and Chemistry and now my son is receiving the same outstanding tutoring in IB Bio. Thank you!!!' IB Parent
'Andrea is my son’s tutor for IB Physics (HL). Her teaching is great and after a few lessons his grades improved a lot. She is very organized, takes the time to understand what he needs to work on and has a friendly demeanor.' IB Parent
Teaching experience and approach:
Since 2012 I have dedicated myself to tutoring full-time and guiding students towards success in their studies. I am skilled in Physics, Chemistry, Biology and Maths tuition in a variety of programmes including the IB, iGCSE, A Level and AP. I also tutor in French and support students undertaking the French Baccalaureate and Swiss Maturité. Regarding IB Maths, I tutor both IB AA and AI courses at SL or HL. I look after the whole student, from an academic perspective and an emotional one and am very capable of reading when a student needs their confidence boosted, and when they're ready to be challenged. I am resourceful and organised and also teach my students how to manage their time effectively and be proactive with their learning, skills which will serve them beyond academics.

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 -
