How does tutoring work for Institut Montana Zugerberg students?
Pietro Meloni tutors Institut Montana Zugerberg students in Maths and Physics online, one to one, following the IGCSE and IB pathway the school teaches. Every session is built around what your child is covering in class that week, so the tutoring reinforces the school course instead of running alongside it. With a PhD in Physics, over ten years of teaching and five-star Google reviews, Pietro knows how demanding the move from IGCSE into the Diploma Programme can feel. Boarding and day students alike often need a calm, private space to ask the questions they did not raise in class. Sessions start from the student's own notes, worksheets and past papers, then fill the gaps in the underlying ideas.
What kind of help do students get with IB and IGCSE Maths and Physics?
Students at Institut Montana Zugerberg get full support in IB and IGCSE Maths and Physics, covering both the content and the exam technique that turns understanding into marks. Pietro works through the topics the school is teaching, then trains students to read questions properly, structure answers and manage time under pressure. That means Analysis and Approaches or Applications and Interpretation at Standard or Higher Level, IGCSE Maths and Physics, mechanics, electricity, waves, calculus, statistics and everything in between. Internal assessments, the Physics IA and the Maths exploration get their own dedicated sessions, from choosing a workable topic to meeting the criteria. Past paper practice is marked the way an examiner would mark it, so students learn where marks are quietly lost.
What happens in an online one to one session?
Each session is a live, one to one video lesson with a shared digital whiteboard, so Pietro and the student write, draw and solve problems together in real time. Nothing is pre recorded and nothing is shared with a group. The student can share a photo of a worksheet or a past paper question at any moment, and it goes straight onto the board. Lessons usually mix worked examples, guided practice and short checks that the idea has really landed. After each session the student keeps the annotated board notes for revision, and parents can ask for a short summary of what was covered and what to work on next. All that is needed is a laptop or tablet, a stable connection and a quiet corner.
Families at Institut Montana Zugerberg can book an assessment session to see exactly where their child stands.
