About Me
Hi! My name is Ines and I live in Dubai. I speak French, Arabic, and English, and I have a background in electrical engineering. I’m passionate about education and love helping students grow in confidence, especially in mathematics.

I enjoy learning new teaching strategies and adapting to various curricula such as IB, IGCSE, GCSE, CBSE, American curriculum, and the French system. I believe that every student has their own learning style, and my goal is to make math clear, logical, and even enjoyable!

Outside of teaching, I like reading, personal development, and exploring topics related to science and critical thinking. I’m always excited to connect with new learners and support them in reaching their academic goals!

Mathematics does not have to be stressful or difficult. With the right guidance, clear explanations, and a personalized approach, every student can improve their understanding and confidence.

I offer professional face-to-face mathematics tutoring for students from Grade 1 to Grade 11 in Dubai. Each lesson is carefully adapted to the student's individual level, learning style, and academic goals.

I provide support for students following different international curriculums, including:

• British Curriculum – Key Stage 1, Key Stage 2, Key Stage 3, GCSE and IGCSE
• American Curriculum – Grades 1–12
• International Baccalaureate (IB) – MYP and DP
• French Curriculum – Primaire, Collège and Lycée

My lessons focus on:

• Building a strong foundation in mathematics
• Explaining difficult concepts clearly and step by step
• Improving problem-solving and logical thinking skills
• Helping with homework, assignments, and school projects
• Preparing for quizzes, tests, assessments, and exams
• Strengthening algebra, geometry, arithmetic, functions, trigonometry, and other key mathematical topics
• Developing confidence and independence when solving mathematical problems

Every student learns differently. For this reason, I adapt my teaching methods to make mathematics easier to understand and more enjoyable. Whether your child needs additional support, wants to improve their grades, prepare for an important exam, or simply strengthen their mathematical skills, I provide a patient, structured, and encouraging learning environment.

My goal is not only to help students find the correct answers, but to ensure they truly understand the concepts and methods behind them.

Lessons are available face-to-face at the student's location in Dubai.

Whether your child is playing their first scale or preparing for an ABRSM Grade 8, or you're an adult who always wanted to learn properly — this is where serious piano progress happens.

I trained at the Conservatory of Music Esteban Salas with a degree in Piano Performance, Teaching, and Ensemble Practice. Before moving to Dubai, I spent six years as a Soloist and Accompanist with the Orquesta Sinfónica de Holguín, performing alongside international conductors and artists. I've taught over 300 students across all ages and levels, from 6-year-olds discovering the keyboard to adults returning to the instrument after decades away.

What makes my lessons different:

Every lesson is built around your goals — not a generic syllabus. In our first session I assess your current level, learning style, and what you actually want from music. From there, lessons combine technical foundation (finger technique, posture, rhythm, sight-reading) with the music you're motivated to play. Students who are bored don't practice. Students who love their pieces do.

For exam candidates, I prepare students for ABRSM, MTB and Trinity examinations at all grades. Scales, pieces, sight-reading, and aural training are all covered in a structured, timed progression so exam day holds no surprises.

For beginners, I use music theory and ear training from day one — not just note-reading — which builds musical instincts that last a lifetime.

For advanced students, I offer something rare in Dubai: specialist coaching in Harmonization, Improvisation, and Arrangement, drawn from my conservatory training and years of professional accompaniment work.

Lessons are available in English and Spanish, in person across Dubai or online via video call.
