Online IB tutoring · Maths & Physics
Online IB tutor, Maths and Physics.
I’m Alex. I finished the IB Diploma with 43/45, including 7s in Maths AA HL and Physics HL, then did a maths degree at the University of Trieste. Now I teach IB Maths and Physics online, one to one, in English, Italian or Croatian.
Students I’ve tutored come from 9 schools in Italy and the Netherlands, and from Bocconi University.
No commitment on the call.

How online lessons work
- The lesson
- We work through the topic together on a shared whiteboard, so you see every step as it’s written. Every session ends with a clear list of what to practise next.
- The worksheet
- You get a custom problem set aimed at what we just covered, to work through on your own while it’s fresh.
- The feedback
- I review every answer. Misconceptions get corrected before the next session and gaps get flagged early, so nothing quietly piles up.
- Practical detail
- 60-minute sessions as standard, 90 minutes in revision periods. Zoom or Google Meet, scheduled around your school timetable and time zone. Session notes are shared after every lesson.
Common questions
Does online IB tutoring work as well as in person?
For maths and physics it does, in my experience. We work on a shared whiteboard, so you see every line as it’s written, and you keep the session notes to go back through before a test.
Which IB subjects do you teach?
IB Maths (AA and AI, SL and HL) and IB Physics (SL and HL), with IA support in both. Outside the IB I teach SAT Math, Bocconi test prep and first-year university maths.
Do you only work with students in Milan?
Lessons are online, so students join from anywhere. Mine come from schools in Milan, Como, Bergamo and Maastricht, and we schedule around your time zone.
What language are lessons in?
English, Italian or Croatian. Your exam will most likely be in English, so we keep the maths and physics vocabulary in English and switch language for explanations when that helps.
