Hello! Bonjour! Hallo! Hola!

I am a chemist, nanotechnologist, and educator with over 8 years of teaching experience. I am currently pursuing a teaching diploma for upper-secondary education (Maturitätsschulen) at the University of Teacher Education PHBern in Switzerland.

I am an open-minded and easy-going person with a strong passion for science, education, and languages—and I truly enjoy helping others learn in a clear, structured, and motivating way.

🎓 Academic & Professional Background

From a young age, I have been fascinated by the natural sciences, especially chemistry. I completed my Matura with a focus on Chemistry and Biology, followed by a Bachelor’s degree in Chemistry and a Master’s degree in High Technologies.

During my second Master’s thesis, I studied Nanoscience and Nanotechnology in France, where I also gained hands-on experience at a start-up working with nanochemistry methods for cancer treatment and immunotherapy.

Alongside my academic journey, I have been teaching since the age of 18:

- 7 years of private tutoring (school & university students)
- 2 years as a lecturer at a private engineering school in Kyiv
- Preparation of students for advanced exams and chemistry Olympiads

I also have experience teaching in Swiss public schools, and I currently teach chemistry in German to students from the Swiss, German, and Austrian education systems.

🎯 What I Offer

🧪 Science Tutoring (Chemistry, Physics, Mathematics)

Structured and engaging lessons for school and university students, including:

- Matura, IB, university preparation
- Deep understanding of concepts (not just memorization)
- Problem-solving strategies and exam techniques

🇩🇪 German Language (A1–B1)

Personalized German lessons focused on communication and clarity.

👉 I learned German myself from A1 to a strong C1 level within one year, which allows me to:

- Understand common learning challenges
- Explain grammar in a simple and logical way
- Help you build confidence in speaking

🧬 Molecular Modelling & Scientific Tools

Introduction to molecular modelling and computational chemistry, including:

- Molecular visualization and structure analysis
- Basics of molecular mechanics and quantum chemistry
- Work with tools such as Avogadro or HyperChem

🤖 AI & Digital Skills (Beginners, Adults, Seniors)

Practical introduction to AI tools (ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, etc.):

- Writing, summarizing, and organizing information
- Everyday digital tasks and productivity
- Content creation and language learning
- Basic software use (Word, Excel, etc.)

No technical background required—I guide you step by step.

👨‍🏫 AI for Teachers & Modern Teaching Methods

Support for teachers who want to enhance their lessons:

- Creating lesson plans, worksheets, and assessments with AI
- Using scientific databases (molecules, proteins, drug information)
- Understanding international curricula (Swiss, German, IB)
- Selecting effective textbooks and learning materials

🧠 My Teaching Approach

- Clear, structured, and adapted to your level
- Focused on deep understanding and long-term learning
- Combination of theory and practical application
- Use of high-quality resources (books, scientific tools, digital platforms)
- Patient, motivating, and personalized support

I use a wide range of materials, including English-language textbooks, scientific articles, interactive tools, YouTube resources, and molecular modelling software, to support effective and engaging learning.

🌍 Languages

I teach in English and German.
I also speak Ukrainian and Russian (native), and have knowledge of French, Polish, and Spanish.
