Private lessons for university level students in the following subjects:
Mathematics, financial math, algebra, analysis, geometry, matrix calculation.
Physics, electromagnetism, mechanics, waves, biomechanics.
ATPL: Principles of flight, General navigation, Radio navigation, AGK (electrics, electronics, power plant).

The method is intended to be structured and visual. We draw and diagram the situation, we gather the data, the unknowns, the formulas to link everything together. Finally, we solve.
It is then that we synthesize, make theory sheets when it is understood and exercised. The emphasis is placed on precision in writing but also in speaking when reading mathematics.

Classes are held at my home in Namur.
Possibility of moving around: in Namur itself, to Lln, to Bxl.
Possibility of doing video: have a touch screen (PC or tablet) or a removable stand for your smartphone.

Excellent teacher, works in a relaxed manner and respects the student's rhythm. So that maths remains fun =)

About Me
I started teaching in secondary 4. All the 4th grade students were having difficulty in physics class. We had an exemption exam in April that year and many failed. I then began to help several of them so that they could obtain this exemption. It came naturally because I really liked this subject and it was easy for me to explain it. Several comrades came to show me their good results afterwards. It was very rewarding. Since then, I have never stopped helping those who came to ask me. I think that what gives me this ability to teach and explain is precisely the fact of having been forced to explain it to myself. I didn't always get everything right and sometimes I had to develop different techniques to understand what I was stuck on. It was built over the years. I like to adapt to the student's level in order to provide them with the tools they need. Often, students lack structures and do not give themselves the means: drawing a situation, writing down the data, the unknowns, the formulas, all of this allows our brain to express its creativity in the search for solutions.
What I like about private lessons is precisely the relationship that is created with the student, that we can discuss various subjects during breaks. One day, a student told me about his passion for geology, going to find fossils, even here in Belgium. As someone who loves science, it fascinated me. One student I remember particularly well was taking lessons to prepare for entry to the Royal Military Academy. She was incomparably diligent. Everything I prepared, she practiced, she asked questions and finally passed the tests that I gave her. She returned to the ERM without incident. Not all students are like that, and some require more attention and reflection on my part and that's what makes my job exciting. But this student made things particularly easy for me, it was disconcerting.
