About Me

My name is Maggie and I am a soon-to-be masters student located in the United States. I have a background in tutoring, academic support, English, history, and media. Since the start of COVID, I have found creative ways to support students and families as they navigate the trauma of a global pandemic without allowing professional and personal development to be ignored. I take the approach of meeting students where they are both personally and academically. I adjust my teaching style and lesson planning to each student in order to address strengths and areas for growth. As an educator with ADHD and anxiety, I am able to adapt lessons to any learning difficulties and help students with different abilities thrive. I do believe in accountability and transparency. I will be open about any challenges during our lesson, and I will expect the same from you. Any dishonesty or cheating will hurt your growth through my courses while creating bad habits that will lead to poor preparation for the future.

Benoit
Private online mathematics lessons - Qualified and experienced teacher
I am a qualified and experienced mathematics tutor. Graduated from the Free University of Brussels in 2011, I started my career by teaching remedial courses in different schools in Brussels. I then specialized in individual academic support by following educational training at the Harvard Graduate School of Education. I have been giving private mathematics lessons daily for over ten years. The students who follow my private lessons benefit from personalized support. The first session is devoted to an in-depth assessment of the student's mathematical knowledge. The objective is to detect its weak points and understand their origin in order to adapt my courses to its needs. I develop a tailor-made remediation program for each of my students aimed at filling each of their gaps. Over the course of the sessions, the student builds a solid foundation for learning and regains self-confidence. At the same time, I help him acquire a work methodology that allows him to gradually become autonomous in his studies. I have a perfect knowledge of the mathematics program of the College and the High School (from the Sixth to the Terminale). During my formative years, I studied and developed many techniques that make it easier to learn math. The strength of my pedagogical approach lies in my ability to explain in a simple way everything that the student finds complicated. I am passionate about this job because it gives me the opportunity to guide dropout students on the path to success. It is a real pleasure to see them evolve and come to terms with the fantastic world of mathematics. I provide my private lessons in Limoges (at the student's home) or remotely (online via the internet). My distance learning courses take place on an interactive online whiteboard. This board is specially designed to promote student/teacher interaction on the internet. Thanks to this educational tool, my online courses are as effective as home courses. The student only needs an internet connection and a computer, tablet, or smartphone to take advantage of it.

Learn ENGLISH, get to know the language and get back on track.
English is a subject that many students struggle with throughout their studies for one reason: the teacher doesn't make the subject fun, but rather a routine. With these classes, we'll learn English in a more useful and effective way that will allow us to pass this subject and understand the language.
