Python is one of the best, if not the best, language to start learning programming. It is also one of the most widely used languages today, especially in cutting-edge areas such as machine learning.

This popularity means that Python is constantly evolving. It offers a wide range of tools and libraries, which are free and very varied.

As an aeronautical engineer, I like to share my knowledge and derive satisfaction from it by teaching and motivating others.

I'm used to working with people of different ages. I believe in the importance of segmenting learning, visualizing progress, setting concrete goals and practicing regularly.

Beyond these general principles, there is no magic rule or method. Some approaches work with some students but not with others. Adaptation to individual needs is therefore the main objective of private lessons. So I will do my best to find what motivates and helps my student.

Teaching children is almost "an art" Not everyone is able to place him or herself in the mind of a child and that is just so important! I teach playfully and at the same time they learn without really realizing they are in a lesson! I do this with diverse lesson material such as pictures, video's, and we are also practicing songs together. Did I make you curious, come take a look and see if your child is liking my way of teaching! Greetings Carolina.

• What is the role of a school coach? As a professional, support young people between 12 and 25 years old, in their personal and more particularly school career, when they want to make a change.

• So, if the topics covered are orientation, motivation, self-confidence and working methods, it will be all about defining an objective and defining the steps to achieve it, based on tools and specific methods, a neutral and benevolent position and its very specific questions.

• It is therefore a question of seeing more clearly, decoding and analyzing in order to manage what is blocking, to learn to go beyond one's limits independently, by relying on internal and external resources and by determining the steps to achieve this. his rhythm.

• If the work of the coach with the parents consists in better accompanying them to understand and support their children in their generation, the work of the coach with the young person is different: By listening as well as the tools / suggestions proposed as well as the attention given to the emotions experienced, it is a question of reinforcing his motivation to get involved in his role, to develop the desired skills, in line with his professional project, through the recognition and valuation of his own talents.

Thus, it is a question of acquiring and then deploying pragmatic tools and methods in order to:
• Support young people with high potential and / or hypersensitivity
• Know yourself better (values, desires, needs, motivations, talents, etc.)
• Gain awareness and esteem
• Pass exams
• Better manage stress and emotions related to exams and gain self-confidence
• Better manage your workload, projects, time and priorities
• Prepare for exams, optimize your organization, find your creative levers
• Improve your relationship with others, your communication, team spirit
• Dare to assert oneself while respecting one's values
• Build and realize your professional project
• Overcome your difficulties, your potential and become aware of the opportunities that may be offered.
• Integrate didactic learning skills and self-knowledge, in addition to skills and coaching tools
• Support young people on different themes such as social integration, relationship with oneself and with others, the meaning of learning, organization, orientation choices, construction of a project

Statistically, the progression following these private sessions is quickly noticeable, from 2 sessions*. (*study 2022)
