I strive to create a supportive and motivating learning environment where students feel comfortable asking questions and making real progress.

Education

I am currently an architecture student at the École Polytechnique d’Architecture et d’Urbanisme (EPAU), where I receive a comprehensive education combining scientific rigor, creativity, and technical skills.

My academic background has provided me with strong foundations in mathematics and physics, which are essential for understanding design and construction principles. In addition, I have developed skills in architectural drawing and the use of specialized software.

Throughout my studies, I have also completed internships in architecture firms, allowing me to apply my knowledge in real-world settings and gain professional experience.

This combination of theoretical and practical training enables me to teach in a clear, structured, and effective way.

Experience / Qualifications

I am currently working at Progrétude, where I provide tutoring in Mathematics, Physics, and Chemistry to middle and high school students. This experience has allowed me to develop a flexible teaching approach tailored to different student needs, with a focus on understanding, methodology, and steady progress.

At the same time, I work as an architecture software instructor in Algiers. I teach essential architectural tools, guiding students through software usage, project development, and the improvement of their technical skills.

These experiences have strengthened my ability to teach, adapt, and support learners in both academic and professional contexts.
