Holding a doctorate in geography from the Sorbonne, I offer academic support for primary, middle, and high school students. I teach all subjects up to the 9th grade level, and particularly literature, social sciences, English, and Spanish up to the baccalaureate level.
I am very familiar with the educational and academic system. I wish to use my experience to provide personalized support to a student. In particular, I am able to assist with learning methods and knowledge assimilation.
I teach at the university (Paris 1 Panthéon-Sorbonne). I have already provided homework help to primary and secondary school students, and I have taught at the university.
I believe it's important to be able to put myself in the student's shoes in order to understand what they don't understand and to tailor the support accordingly. I myself benefited from homework help during my schooling; my father is a university professor.
You will find more details about my background, qualifications and teaching skills on my profile.
I also offer private English lessons.
I am also available occasionally, or regularly in the evenings, for babysitting.

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 thorough knowledge of the mathematics curriculum for middle and high school (from 6th to 12th grade). I am also qualified to support students in preparing for international exams such as the SAT, the OMPT, and the International Baccalaureate (IB) in all its variations: Analysis and Approaches (AA SL/HL) and Applications and Interpretation (AI SL/HL).

Throughout my years of training, I studied and developed numerous techniques that facilitate learning mathematics. The strength of my teaching approach lies in my ability to explain, in simple terms, anything a student finds complicated. I am passionate about this profession because it offers me the opportunity to guide struggling students toward success. It is a true pleasure to see them progress and rediscover their connection with the fascinating world of mathematics.

I offer private tutoring in Paris (at the student's home) or remotely (online). My online lessons take place on an interactive whiteboard. This whiteboard is specifically designed to facilitate student/teacher interaction online. Thanks to this teaching tool, my online lessons are just as effective as in-person lessons. The student only needs an internet connection and a computer, tablet, or smartphone to participate.

For some students, homework help in the evening (over a fairly short period of time, often an hour from time to time is enough to create a method that allows the student to improve their work by themselves) may be a necessity.
What can also be useful is the deepening of the lessons through small exercises and clarification on the gray points of the courses.
What I am proposing here is this help, multidisciplinary until the start of middle school, then, in middle school or high school, in all subjects with the exception of mathematics and possibly physics.
I can particularly help in French, history geography, English, SVT, Spanish and geopolitics.

The purpose of this course ranges from the simple explanation, reformulation and relearning of a misunderstood course to the development of the student in a given discipline.
To do this, I do multiple application exercises, followed by corrections and more theoretical parts if necessary.

Students will learn how to use daily dialogue communication skills to enhance their courage of proficiency in English. This is the best class for French speakers that want to learn and speak English. It really helps my former students to communicate with their friends and families as well.Learn it's quite alright to involve this class in daily routine challenges within few weeks of the unstoppable composition of some grammar teaching they're good at it. For an adult, it's complicated some times learning new language but along the teaching process it stabilize a functional courage to do better using the communication skills method to approach with people.

e offers personalized academic support for students from primary to high school, with an approach adapted to the level, pace and needs of each student.
My goal is not just to help with homework, but above all to enable the student to understand how to learn, to gain autonomy, to better organize themselves and to regain confidence in their abilities.
I can, in particular, support the student with:
• Homework help and understanding of lessons
• the methodology and organization of the work
• preparation for tests and exams
• memorization and the creation of revision cards
• French and English
• Time and priority management
• Self-confidence in the face of learning
I pay particular attention to students who need support that differs from the traditional school setting, especially students with difficulties concentrating, organizing, or neuroatypical profiles such as ADHD or ASD.
Each initial session allows me to get to know the student, identify their strengths, difficulties, and learning style. I then gradually build the sessions with tailored exercises, materials, methods, and objectives.
I favour a caring, dynamic and structured approach, so that the student can progress without feeling like they are enduring an extra hour of class.

Learning with dyslexia, ADHD, or any other learning difficulty can be frustrating. Especially when you are expected to study in the same way as everyone else, despite your brain just working differently. I know this from personal experience.

I am a law student with dyslexia and ADHD, and over the years I have developed practical strategies that have helped me study, stay organised, and succeed academically. I now want to share those tools with children, teenagers and adults who may be facing similar challenges.

For younger students, I can provide homework and study support, helping them understand how they learn best and how to use practical tools such as mind maps, flashcards, digital resources, structured study sessions and focus techniques. If they already have a diagnosis, I can also help them understand the accommodations and learning tools available to them at school and encourage them to become more confident in communicating their needs.

Just as importantly, I understand the frustration that can come from teachers, classmates or others misunderstanding dyslexia, ADHD as well as other learning difficulties. My aim is to create a supportive, judgement-free environment where students can ask questions, experiment with different study methods and build confidence in their abilities.

My sessions are also suitable for adults who were diagnosed later in life, or who never had the opportunity to learn strategies for managing dyslexia or ADHD. Together, we can work on organisation, studying, reading, writing, planning and finding practical systems that fit your everyday life.

English & Italian lessons

I also offer English and Italian conversation, tutoring and study support for students with or without learning difficulties.

Having studied in both the IB/English-language school system and the Italian state school system, I am familiar with the different expectations, teaching styles and challenges students may encounter in both.

In summary, I would love to help with:

English and Italian conversation
Homework and schoolwork
Study organisation and learning strategies
Dyslexia/DSA and ADHD-friendly study techniques
Mind maps, flashcards and free digital study tools
Reading and writing support
Building confidence and independence in studying
Cambridge English exam preparation

My goal is not to force students into one method, but to help them discover the tools and techniques that work best for them and approach academic work and later their professional lives with confidence and security.

Hi! I am a 17-year-old student from Spain and I would like to become a teacher later. I enjoy working with children and helping them with school.

I provide online help with **reading comprehension**, for example using texts and exercises from Nieuwsbegrip. We can read texts together, discuss difficult words, answer questions, and practice understanding the most important information.

The lessons are calm and tailored to the level and age of each child. My goal is to give children more self-confidence with reading comprehension and schoolwork. 😊
