I have a degree in Physics with 6 years of experience in IES. My methodology is quite good given that last year, nobody failed and those who took the Selectividad, got the necessary grade for their studies.
In the case of students who wish to access FP, I have made a summary of all the entrance exams. It was one of the subjects I taught at an IES.
The time available for each student may vary slightly depending on where the student lives, because I don't mind traveling, but I have my work commitments. Even if I can't show up on Saturday to Sunday nights, I could do it online in the early hours of that night.

I like to adapt the classes to what works for each student, I am open to different methodologies and ideas from the students themselves. I personally believe that math is learned by understanding it and being able to visualize it, and is remembered by practicing what we have just learned. This structure I try to present in my way of teaching.

I am an experienced and certified mathematics tutor specializing in a range of curriculums, including AS and A-Levels, IGCSE, GCSE, SATs, Edexcel, and the International Baccalaureate (IB). With a proven track record of guiding students to success in these rigorous exams, I understand the unique challenges each curriculum presents. My approach is designed to meet each student's individual needs and learning style, ensuring that they receive the tailored support necessary to excel.

Mathematics can often seem daunting, but my goal is to help students build a deep understanding of mathematical concepts. I believe that a solid foundation in the basics is crucial, and I work to ensure that students grasp fundamental principles before moving on to more complex topics. This method not only boosts their confidence but also prepares them for advanced problem-solving scenarios. I utilize a variety of teaching methods, from visual aids to interactive exercises, to cater to different learning styles and make the subject more relatable.

In my sessions, I focus on developing effective problem-solving strategies. I guide students through step-by-step processes for tackling various types of mathematical problems, helping them to analyze questions critically and approach solutions systematically. This analytical skill is invaluable, not just for exams, but for future academic pursuits and real-world applications. I encourage students to ask questions and engage in discussions, as this fosters a deeper understanding of the material.

I also recognize that exam preparation involves more than just understanding the content; it requires familiarity with the exam format and types of questions they will encounter. I provide targeted practice using past papers and mock exams, which allows students to hone their test-taking skills and time management. This practice is essential for building the resilience and confidence needed to perform well under exam conditions.

Whether you're looking for support with fundamental concepts or advanced topics, I am here to provide clear explanations and structured guidance. My lessons are designed to be engaging and interactive, ensuring that students remain motivated and focused. I believe that learning should be a positive experience, and I strive to create a supportive environment where students feel comfortable expressing their concerns and challenges.

Medium term: Integration of reasoning and working methods. Your child will learn to work regularly in this order: assimilation, training exercises, preparation for assessments and analysis of results.

Long term: Establishing clear goals, building the steps to achieve them, realizing the SIMPLICITY of mathematics, building confidence in your abilities and unlocking your child's potential.

Details of the formula:

One to two sessions of 1h30/2h per week to assimilate the course and prepare for the evaluations.
Classes delivered via Google Meet for effective online learning.

I present lessons in a professional manner that helps a lot to understand and assimilate easily.
Lessons in mathematics, physics and chemistry in all primary, middle and secondary levels, in Arabic and French.
Add to Arabic language lessons for all Muslims, primary and middle school.

Rémi

Student at the ENS in Paris, and questioner in preparatory classes, I decided to give physics-chemistry lessons to pass on what talented teachers have taught me and which I consider effective in order to help new students to better understand, learn, and pass their exams.

Together we will work on the lessons as well as classic exercises in order to both understand and manipulate the key notions and concepts in the program.

Understanding, method, efficiency, are the key points of my approach. I will adapt to each person's level, and we will be able to go back to the basics as well as go in-depth with the courses and prepare for the most selective competitions.

Give real meaning to the course, to the formulas, to the calculations, to make them your own, to have a perspective on the results, to know how to present them clearly, to understand the logic of the exercises, all these notions are all points evaluated in the exams/competitions that we will prepare together.

A course to learn and reinforce the topics covered in class. I have a C1 level in English and experience teaching. I adapt to the student without any problem. I'm a university student majoring in pharmacy, so I'm particularly good at chemistry, but I'm familiar with all types of secondary school and science baccalaureate subjects. The course would begin by assessing the student's level and building on what's been taught in their classes.

Learning math and chemistry. Two important subjects in the sciences. They are dense and sometimes complicated subjects, but it all depends on how they are explained and understood. That's why in my classes I try to make the class dynamic, adapting to the students' needs to try to achieve their maximum potential in the subject.
