Mathematical academic coaching in Munich

Have you finally made it to university and are ready to study your dream subject? Do you really want to get started on your dream degree in your dream subject? Congratulations on that! Here are a few (German) warning notes on what you will likely face at university and on what you will need to learn to cope with:

Does this sound familiar to you?

  • Do you feel poorly prepared for the math or programming classes and are worried about the exams that you definitely need to pass?
  • Or do you feel very well prepared for the math or programming part and worry about not learning enough in large group lectures?
  • Has math always been just arithmetic at school and now you are expected to argue, prove and justify all of a sudden?
  • Do you feel unseen in your courses, are your questions, worries and misunderstandings unheard and your individual learning needs unmet?
  • Have you just moved here from abroad and need to (better) learn the language and culture and cope with everyday life in addition to your studies?

I will accompany you (and your study group, if applicable) throughout the semester, with weekly meetings in which we will work through any material you have not understood, or provide additional learning impulses based on the material you have already understood, or discuss and solve other challenges in your new phase of life. You decide and shape, you and your needs are what this is all about, and I support you in your ambitious study goals! So you can:

  • go into your exams well-prepared and relaxed;
  • fill your “knowledge gaps” and develop your “learning strengths”;
  • build self-confidence, achieve professional excellence and thrive personally.
Who am I?

Just very briefly here, there is more on the info page:

  • I have a PhD in mathematics and have taught math(s) and programming at universities for a decade.
  • I am actively and constantly working on how to support young people in their self-directed education process in a needs-centered fashion.
  • I have spent time abroad myself and know how challenging and possibly overwhelming it can be.
How can I help you?
  • I offer academic coaching during the semester for you alone or your little study group (up to 3 people)
  • 1 meeting per week in each lecture week for 1 hour (net 55 minutes)
  • 15 meetings altogether for a continuous collaboration
  • at the university or another agreed meeting place
  • Specialist support in linear algebra, analysis, higher mathematics and programming
How much is it?
  • The price for individual academic coaching is 1000€ per semester.
  • For small study groups, the price per person is reduced to €850 for groups of two people or €700 for groups of three people.
