Hello 😊

Engineer (BAC + 5) in Process Engineering (Physics-Chemistry), I propose today to give you tutoring lessons in maths-physics and chemistry for college, high school and post BAC up to L3 (or special maths). for the prepas) with help in preparing for competitive examinations (Grandes Ecoles or agro/veto).

Since high school, I like to pass on my passion for science to students. Over the past 10 years, I have been able to discover a good number of profiles that I have been able to accompany (for some for 3 years) up to patents, BAC and competitions.

My teaching method is based on several pillars:

- transmit a methodology, because very often it is not a problem of understanding the course that blocks the student but a lack of methodology in the approach to the exercises,

- listening to the student, adapting to his profile, his way of integrating and working, understanding the sciences,

- show popular science or present exercises using examples from everyday life, in order to deconstruct the negative image of science that many students have. In short, show them that science is easy and that we rub shoulders with it everywhere around us at all times :)

- repetition and practice, the main structure of my course: repetition of the previous course to ensure that the concepts have been well integrated, present the course of the session and the formulas and principles to remember (it is at the beginning course that the student's memory and attention are the best), then practice for 2/3 to 3/4 of the course, and finally recap and lesson note cards.

I hope to be able to pass on my passion for science to you soon :)

About Me
Hello 😊,

Engineer (BAC + 5) in Process Engineering (Physics-Chemistry), I propose today to give you tutoring courses in maths-physics and chemistry for middle and high school.
Where I come from ? What is my background?
I have always been curious, wanting to understand how the universe around me works, its mysteries.
This very quickly pushed me towards the scientific path, especially in physics and chemistry.
After obtaining a BAC S (option Physics-Chemistry) with honors, I had the opportunity to do preparatory classes for engineering schools and to be able to integrate one that offered a whole range of courses, ranging from research in astrophysics to "process engineering" (a somewhat barbaric name to indicate the design and study of processes to use energy, for example, or water).
Once my diploma was obtained, I was able to continue for 10 years in companies ranging from energy (nuclear to hydraulic), chemistry and water (Suez).

But now enough about me ...

Hope to be able to share my passion for science with you soon :)
Education
What is my method?

I offer lessons at home (Valenciennes / Le Quesnoy sector) or online. I adapt to your availability and your specific needs.
For parents who wish, payment by CESU is accepted.

My teaching method is based on several pillars:

- first of all transmit a methodology, because very often it is not a problem of understanding the course that blocks the student but a lack of methodology in the approach to the exercises,

- listening to the student, adapting to his profile, his way of integrating and working, understanding the sciences,

- show popular science or present exercises using examples from everyday life, in order to deconstruct the negative image of science that many students have. In short, show them that science is easy and that we rub shoulders with it everywhere around us at all times :)

- repetition and practice, the main structure of my course: repetition of the previous course to ensure that the concepts have been well integrated, present the course of the session and the formulas and principles to remember (this is at the beginning the best memory and attention of the student), then practice for 2/3 to 3/4 of the course, and finally recap and note cards of the lesson.

It should also be clear that I am not replacing my “official” teacher in any way. I complete and I propose a different approach, more specific and adapted for you.

Why will I be more relevant than another teacher?

My experience both in preparatory and professional classes has been appreciated by my students over the past 10 years.

Through the preparatory classes, I was trained to stand out and I can help you do the same. Whether exams, preparation for the BAC or patent, oral presentation of end of study project etc ...

In addition, my professional experience has often interested my students because I could tell them what to expect, how their learning was going to be used later in the work environment, how what they learned could be useful to them through after.
I could make them more concrete all the time they spent learning. Guide them according to their professional wishes, show them how important science is for jobs that do not seem scientific at all (I had the example of a student who wanted to take care of animals in reserves and zoos for example, a profession in which science is essential).

But now enough about me ...

Hope to be able to share my passion for science with you soon :)
Experience / Qualifications
What is my teaching experience?

Since high school, I like to transmit my passion for science to the students, as well as highlighting and giving them confidence for their presentation of projects, oral exams, files to present etc ... I like helping and advise, always and only in relation to my experience, of what I have experienced.

Over the past 10 years, I have been able to discover good numbers of profiles that I have been able to support (for some for 3 years) up to the certificate and BAC, with a significant improvement in their average (+2 to 5 points).

have graduated with a degree in chemical engineering from the University of Edinburgh, UK. I am also an Erasmus Mundus scholar with a master's in Analytical Chemistry from Uppsala University. Currently, I am pursuing a PhD in physical chemistry.

I have been tutoring since 2012 to fund my education expenses. I formally began tutoring in 2014 as part of my vocational training as a teacher in Ghana, funded by the University of Edinburgh. The formal training has taught me a lot about curriculum development, time management, and fusing my teaching methodology to my students’ needs. I have been tutoring in Physics, Chemistry, and Math, in person and online; the hybrid model has allowed me to reach out and teach students in 8 different countries. I have successful students from these past nine years who have not only commended my work ethic but can also stand testament to my enthusiasm.

My excellent academic career has nurtured in me a natural talent for teaching. My experiences have taught me how to tackle one problem at a time, and I believe that using this approach—paired with my unconventional examples that force students to think outside the box—I can truly provide an excellent understanding and explanation. My teaching methodology is based on two main things: skill development and adaptation. Initially, I create a skeleton of the most suitable methodology tailored to the preferred curriculum, after which, I adapt that lecture to the specific needs of the student based on their knowledge and grasp of the concepts. Second, I like to develop analytical and scientific ability along with knowledge in my students, and for that, I use a combination of resources in the form of worksheets, class tasks, and past papers. Last, I believe in the strong ethic of providing feedback to the parents, so that they are aware of their child’s progress.

Frequently Asked Questions:
Which subject(s) do you teach?
I teach math, mechanics, statistics, chemistry and physics. I also teach biology up to GCSE level.

When are you available? My timetable is quite flexible. I am happy to work weekdays, week evening and weekends.

Which ages and levels do you teach? The majority of my students are between the ages of 10-18, but I also teach college Students. I am also helping foundation and first year university students.

Which qualifications do you prepare your students for? GCSE, o-level, A/S-level, A-level, IB, School entrance exams and SATs

Describe your arrangements for online tutoring? I use Zoom online sessions since it has many tools and features specially designed for interactive and visual learning. I am fully equipped with modern gadgets for e-learning. I use Google drive and docs to share files.

What we will focus on:
- How to approach difficult IB-style questions
- Strategies for moving from a 5 to a 6 or from a 6 to a 7
- How to understand command terms and what questions are really asking
- How to structure answers to maximize marks
- Data analysis, graphs, calculations, and experimental questions
- Common mistakes that cost students marks
- Time management and exam strategy
- Challenging 6–7 level Biology HL and Chemistry HL questions

We will work through challenging IB-style Biology and Chemistry questions step by step, focusing not only on what the correct answer is, but why the markscheme awards marks for it and how to recognize similar questions in an exam.
Whether you are currently working toward a 6, trying to push from a 6 to a 7, or simply want to become significantly stronger in IB Biology HL or Chemistry HL, this class will give you a clear and practical strategy for maximizing your exam performance.

have graduated with a degree in chemical engineering from the University of Edinburgh, UK. I am also an Erasmus Mundus scholar with a master's in Analytical Chemistry from Uppsala University. Currently, I am pursuing a PhD in physical chemistry.

I have been tutoring since 2012 to fund my education expenses. I formally began tutoring in 2014 as part of my vocational training as a teacher in Ghana, funded by the University of Edinburgh. The formal training has taught me a lot about curriculum development, time management, and fusing my teaching methodology to my students’ needs. I have been tutoring in Physics, Chemistry, and Math, in person and online; the hybrid model has allowed me to reach out and teach students in 8 different countries. I have successful students from these past nine years who have not only commended my work ethic but can also stand testament to my enthusiasm.

My excellent academic career has nurtured in me a natural talent for teaching. My experiences have taught me how to tackle one problem at a time, and I believe that using this approach—paired with my unconventional examples that force students to think outside the box—I can truly provide an excellent understanding and explanation. My teaching methodology is based on two main things: skill development and adaptation. Initially, I create a skeleton of the most suitable methodology tailored to the preferred curriculum, after which, I adapt that lecture to the specific needs of the student based on their knowledge and grasp of the concepts. Second, I like to develop analytical and scientific ability along with knowledge in my students, and for that, I use a combination of resources in the form of worksheets, class tasks, and past papers. Last, I believe in the strong ethic of providing feedback to the parents, so that they are aware of their child’s progress.
