Scientific Coaching: PhD, postdoctoral researcher and scientists

Studying science or doing a PhD in science is particularly difficult and challenging. It is even more complicated considering that finding a job afterward is not easy.
I have been through a PhD in Physical Chemistry, abroad and far from my home country, so I can tell how difficult it is.
Why this class, then?

I want to share with you my experience as woman in science and support your efforts during the PhD or during the search for a new job, providing coaching class and support.

About Me

Hi everyone,
I am a PhD student in Physical Chemistry working in the solar field and renewable energies. I have been teaching for six years now, both when I was a student in Italy and now in Amsterdam. If there is something that I know for sure is that I want to become a professor one day as the most satisfying thing for me is to know that my students appreciate and have fun chemistry after my lessons. Chemistry is not so bad after all!

Education

BSc in Chemistry at La Sapienza University in Rome
MSc in Physical and Inorganic Chemistry at La Sapienza University in Rome (Internship at UvA Amsterdam)
PhD in Physics - AMOLF, Amsterdam (ongoing)

Experience / Qualifications

I mainly focus on general chemistry and chemistry in solution: stochiometry, pH, solutions, gas, oxidation and reduction, electrochemistry

Reviews (1)

I reached out to Loreta because I had to learn a long list of topics in chemistry in order to prepare myself for university, in a relatively short period of time of being only about half a year. Loreta was able to prepare classes for me that not only made it easy for me to understand, but they contained everything I needed and whenever I had issues with something that I didn't understand, she was really helpful and patient with me. She was an awesome teacher for the short period of time she helped me, she made the classes fun and I think if I had a teacher like her in highschool I would've had a much easier time preparing for uni :) Overall I had a great experience with her and I can't recommend her enough
Need to edit or revise a manuscript, thesis or essay? Taking advantage of professional academic editing can help your work reach its potential and increase your chances of being graded higher. I can provide specific feedback and suggestion to improve the quality of your thesis, essay or manuscript.
Chemistry is a widespread subject in many schools, institutes and universities. The first obstacle to overcome this subject is quantitative chemistry, an enormous examination full of notions such as pH, electrochemistry, titrations, redox, atomic and molecular orbitals, colligative properties, gas. I offer lessons on all these topics, both for exam preparation and for a test or class assignment. I combine theory with practice, offering exercises I propose or carrying out those that you bring yourself.

Send a message explaining your needs and Loreta A. will reply soon:
The more detail, the better.
Ex. "Hi, when are you available to meet for a lesson?"

Maryam
Private lessons in Arabic and English to build my little champions from the beginning
My name is Mariam from the United Arab Emirates. I specialize in establishing children from 4 years old to third grade in Arabic and English subjects with more than seven years of experience in teaching. I love children and I have patience in understanding the needs of my young students. I establish them and teach them new words. My priorities are to explain in detail and in stages until the child acquires the information. I send the exercises to the guardian before the specified class time to print them for the child. If he has a printer, I contact the guardian at the end of the class to tell him about the level of their child with me. May God bless you, my little heroes 🤍

EFFECTIVE COMMUNICATION AT THE SERVICE OF PERSONAL AND PROFESSIONAL SOCIAL RELATIONS
➤ From NVC (Non-Violent Communication) through the pragmatic tools of empathy and emotional intelligence. From personal to professional. From theory to practice with simulations. It is about putting in place rational tools to defuse conflicts and enter your comfort / security zone. In particular, simple techniques which make it possible to improve intimate, personal and professional relationships, or even to resolve and manage violent situations in a harmonious, effective and lasting way. ➤ Indeed, the objective is to improve personal / professional communication & overcome any resulting conflicts. So how do you get a clear message across and make a difference? ➤ More precisely, the objectives are to: 0. Understand and identify the issues / risks then find a balance between empathy and conviction 1. Use interpersonal communication techniques resulting from mediation to defuse tensions and gain distance 2. Dissociate the relational and the nature of the disagreement - Overcome cognitive and psychological obstacles 3. Acquire the techniques of self-defense and mastery without hurting and being injured 4. Face and then defuse difficult behaviors (blackmail attempts, threats, destabilization) or even dangerous with a mediation strategy 5. Develop conflict management and negotiation skills, alternating attentive listening, active speaking and rationality in the face of the limited rationality of the angry individual. ➤ Whether your objective is personal or professional, defusing conflicts, negotiating and speaking relevant and successful must always be effective and efficient, with clear, simple and powerful messages, creating an adequacy between the message received and the message sent. Consistency between form and substance. ➤ So, how to listen and be listened to, convince and be impactful, challenge and mark the spirits, enhance its content, address its audience effectively and optimize the quality & clarity of the exchange / message? It is precisely a question of going through, applying and deploying practical and effective techniques of verbal and non-verbal communication. ➤ Thus, mastered, the practical method allows, through a set of simulations and scenarios based on your daily experience supporting pragmatic & concrete techniques, to improve self-confidence, self-confidence, but also to work on one's leadership & charisma. ➤ So, after having precisely defined your objective & gone through the blockages encountered, here are some examples of themes covered through concrete techniques & a methodology: ✓Tools and deployment of conflict management tools, including NVC ✓ Perfecting your rhetoric / repartee ✓Body Language fundamentals to support and not interfere with speech while showing conviction & convincing, thus ensuring consistency between content & form ✓Techniques to put the interlocutor at ease and appear friendly / interested ✓To succeed in negotiation / mediation ✓To learn to say 'no' in three steps AND get them to say 'yes' ✓To turn sentences into positive AND constructive ✓To put NLP (neuro-linguistic programming) at the service of non-violent communication ✓To adopt an effective, simple language, just by engaging ✓To use sentences, turns & expressions to be precise, simple, effective & challenge (...) ➤ In short, each session combines techniques & practice exercises adapted to your everyday situations (filmed with your agreement in order to be reviewed, commented on, decoded together live), so that you can put them into practice immediately, this from the 1st session. ➤ THE TRAINER Trained in a Grande Ecole post-preparatory European classes & Ivy League university in the United States, our teacher has specialized and has worked for more than 15 years, in Europe and North America, in the field of communication, in renowned international public and private establishments, intervening in forums and conferences, & oriented towards pedagogy and careful methodology. -Apart from the classic advantages of videoconferencing (time savings related to travel, eco-responsibility, increased scheduling flexibility, etc.), the quality of the session & the interaction remain the same.

Mathematics, Sciences, Algebra, Calculus, Statistics: Higher Education - private lessons.
Need help with math and science (physics, chemistry,...)? As a civil engineer, 31, I am happy to help you! Learn at your pace and with many examples to clarify the learning material. I have years of experience in teaching simple and complex material. The lessons run as follows. First of all, together we look for the student's biggest stumbling blocks. These can be related to the subject matter as well as to the study method. From there, I continue to work at the pace of the student and encourage them to ask as many questions as possible. I also give them tips and tricks, and improve their working methods where necessary. During the lesson I give many examples to make the subject matter more interesting and we solve exercises together. Once the student has mastered the exercises from the lesson, I give some more challenging exercises to also test on the deeper understanding of the subject matter. In this way I try to optimally prepare the student for his / her test or exam. However, learning should also be enjoyable. That is why I always strive for a good relationship with the student through a spontaneous and positive approach. I am also very patient. All this lowers the barrier to ask questions and improves the student's learning process. Are you interested? Do not hesitate to contact me! See you soon! Tim

Richard
Current physics teacher offering GCSE, MYP, A-level, IB DP Physics tuition
I am currently teaching physics and have recently completed a masters in astrophysics. I have been teaching for over 10 years now (including being Head of Physics at one of the largest international schools in Asia) and I love my subject. I like to make my classes fun, engaging, and driven towards giving you the tools needed to help improve your physics. I have a lot of online tools to help you and you will receive lots of feedback on what we do. When you purchase a tutorial (or set of tutorials) we'll have an initial session to go over what you need to cover and what materials you would like. It'll help me assess your levels and to organise the correct materials. Then, during each session, we'll go through the material and try questions (including past paper questions). We'll practice both the multiple choice and long answer question papers. I'll make sure to arrange for you to receive the materials before our sessions so that we're targeting everything to just those things you need to study. I've also added a course specifically for DP students to get them ready for their new course:

✅TRAINING TO EMBODY EFFECTIVE MANAGERIAL COMMUNICATION: RHETORIC, ORATORY, DISTRIBUTION, SPEECH, TEAM MANAGEMENT, NEGOTIATION
➤ Being a good manager is also being a good communicator. After all, a strategy can only be put into practice if you show yourself capable of interacting with your employees, of being a source of inspiration for them and of listening to their concerns. Unfortunately, not all managers naturally excel in this role and their difficulties in asserting themselves as true leaders is often attributable to their difficulties in communicating. ➤ The objective would then be to explore together the areas of improvement in terms of communication know-how. And managing effectively requires specific and cutting-edge know-how. ➤ In fact, managerial communication corresponds to the interactions between the management of the company and the organization and more specifically, between the manager and his team. This manager is in charge of transmitting information and directives coming from higher hierarchical levels, supporting internal communication, distilling messages related to his own management to obtain the commitment of his team, all while transmitting a message effectively. ➤ This exercise can therefore be tricky: this is why it is important to choose the right mediator in order to be well supported, not only to be understood by those around him, but also to carry out his mission. ➤ What to communicate? When ? Whose ? These questions will find an answer in the consistency of the actions undertaken. Good managerial communication will thus aim to exchange / dialogue effectively with its employees, maintain a close link between the different layers of the company, bring human relations back to the heart of the company, establish a climate of trust and good team cohesion, motivate by inspiring. ➤ In short, each session combines techniques & practice exercises adapted to your everyday situations (filmed with your agreement in order to be reviewed, commented on, decoded together live), so that you can put them into practice immediately, and this from the 1st session. Statistically, the progression following these private sessions is quickly noticeable, from 2 or 3 sessions*. (*study 2022). ➤ THE TRAINER: Trained in Grande Ecole post-preparatory classes & Ivy League university in the United States, our teacher has specialized and has been working for more than 15 years, in Europe and North America, in the field of communication , in reputable international public and private establishments, intervening in forums and conferences, and oriented on two axes: training and coaching, with pedagogy and careful methodology as key words. ➤ PLACE, TIMETABLE, PRICES ✓ Locations: Geneva-Lausanne-Fribourg-Zurich-Neuchâtel-Lugano-Montreux-Basel-Neuchâtel-Bern-Lucerne-Brussels-Luxembourg-Paris-Lyon. But currently, these sessions continue to be offered by videoconference in the current context and in accordance with general demand which is almost unanimous on this subject. ✓ Indeed, apart from the classic advantages of videoconferencing (time saving related to travel & their unforeseen events, eco-responsibility, increased schedule flexibility, etc.), the quality of the session & the interaction remain identical. In addition, the entire exchange, notes and recommendations are immediately transcribed on the dedicated chat. ✓ To support us among ourselves & to be pleasant to you in this sustainable / particular period and in a spirit of solidarity, the fees are temporarily reduced and will not increase after the start of our sessions. ✓ Languages: French/English. ✓ The progress following these private sessions is perceptible from 1 to 2 sessions (*2024 study). ✓ As other people do regularly, you can also please your loved ones by offering gift vouchers available all year round.
