Best IB Physics tutors in Switzerland & online

I teach IB Physics at the United World College, an international educational movement, where I combine theory with practical examples drawn from 9y of engineering practice and 6y in scientific research. In tutoring, I prefer to act as a mentor rather than just a tutor, aiming for clear, engaging, easy to follow, and enjoyable lessons. My tutoring students regularly achieve high results (sixes and sevens) in their IAs, as I support them with detailed materials and guided examples.

I’m Graham, a Programme Leader and experienced Physics teacher with over 26 years in education, including 15 years teaching IB Physics in international schools across China, Portugal, Peru, and Brazil. I hold a Physics degree from the University of Sheffield and a PGCE from the University of Exeter. I’ve taught GCSE, A-level, and IB Physics, and led a thriving department where over 60 IB students achieved an average HL score above 6. I’m also an IB examiner for both the Internal Assessment and Paper 2 components, giving me deep insight into how students can succeed in assessments. My lessons are fully interactive and tailored to each student’s needs. I use engaging presentations, simulations, and problem-solving tasks to build understanding and correct misconceptions through careful questioning. My relaxed and supportive teaching style encourages students to ask questions, explore ideas, and grow in confidence. Outside of teaching, I’m passionate about outdoor education and adventure travel. I’ve taken students trekking in Nepal, India, and Pakistan, and cycled across Patagonia, Brazil, and from London to Istanbul. I speak Portuguese and basic Spanish, and love sharing my curiosity and global perspective with students.

I’m Jonathan, an experienced IB educator and examiner with over two decades of international teaching and leadership experience. I specialize in helping students excel in IB Physics, Mathematics, and Theory of Knowledge through a thoughtful, individualized approach. Over the past 20+ years, I’ve served as IB Diploma Programme Coordinator, Physics/Mathematics Teacher, and TOK Teacher/Examiner at leading international schools in China, Sri Lanka, USA, Dominican Republic, and Senegal. I’m also the founder of SmartSmith Educational Consultants, where I guide students toward academic confidence and top IB results. I hold a Master of Science from Oregon State University and a Bachelor of Arts in Physics from the University of Colorado. My tutoring focuses on clarity, curiosity, and confidence. I break down challenging concepts into simple, practical steps while connecting them to real-world applications. I emphasize critical thinking and conceptual mastery—skills that empower students beyond the classroom. Outside of tutoring, I’m an avid mountain climber, musician, and artist. I love exploring how science, creativity, and human curiosity intersect—both in my own life and in my students’ learning.

I’m Daniel, a Mathematics teacher and IB educator with over eight years of experience helping students build confidence and succeed in mathematics. I hold a Bachelor’s Degree in Education (Science) from the University of Nairobi and currently serve as the Head of Mathematics and Mathematics Teacher for the IB Middle Years Programme (MYP) and Diploma Programme (DP) at Aga Khan Academy Mombasa. Previously, I taught Mathematics and Physics in international schools including Oshwal Academy Nairobi and Premier Academy, preparing students for IGCSE, A-Level, and IB assessments. Throughout my career, I have supported students across KS3–KS5 and IB programmes, guiding them through exam preparation, internal assessments, and conceptual understanding in mathematics. My tutoring approach focuses on breaking down complex mathematical ideas into clear, manageable steps while strengthening problem-solving and analytical thinking. I emphasize conceptual understanding, exam strategies, and inquiry-based learning so students not only improve their grades but also develop confidence in mathematics. Outside the classroom, I enjoy exploring innovative teaching strategies, integrating technology into learning, and mentoring students to reach their full academic potential.

I'm Laura, and I study Physics at University College London. I got a 42 overall in IB, with a 7 in Physics HL, and I have been tutoring since 2022. I also did my EE in Physics, for which I got an A and also won first prize in The Norwegian Young Researchers Contest. As a tutor, I bring enthusiasm to our sessions, and focus on identifying gaps in knowledge, addressing common mistakes, and building confidence through practicing with questions. Outside of Physics I enjoy reading, and this year I am also learning to kickbox!

Specifically, I am an IBDP Physics and Extended Essay Examiner. Mathematics and physics are my subjects of instruction. Conceptual understanding and problem solving allow me to make mathematics and physics engaging for my students.
