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.

As an Italian Opera singer, I help since many years singers with the right pronunciation of the repertoire they sing, helping them in shaping the language in a clear way, which also helps the singing.

Our lesson will involve speaking, pronunciation exercises and singing.
We will start the lesson by reading the text and finding the right direction and emphasis.
We will focus on the sounds and how to produce them.
In the second part of the lesson, we will apply all of the above to the singing!

The objective is that: the learner masters the English language (🎧listening-comprehension,🎤 conversation, 📚 reading, grammar-pronunciation, writing...). It helps him to have language skills like native speakers. 🥇

At the same time, the learner will be 🚴‍♀️dynamic and well supervised by professional tutors who listen.
The atmosphere is distinguished: 🔥learning, interaction, no routine, no stress.

The learning tools used; videos, audios, texts, articles, images, games, stories...

We are happy to help both adults and pupils/students. If you want to learn the English language (reading, grammar, oral conversation, written production,...) or you have homework to do, or competitions/tests to take, 🏆 contact us :)

Hello everyone!
I'm Giorgia and I come from Torino, Italy.
I offer my native knowledge of Italian to any of you, who wants to discover this beautiful language.

I teach for all levels, from very beginners to advanced speakers, passing through amateurs or simply curious of any age. I can also help with university exams and school works/assignments.
Being a pianist and a piano teacher, I already have lots of experience with teaching and pedagogical approach with the whole range of ages.

The lesson is intended to meet the student needs: the focus can be on the grammar, conversation or literature. In case of a middle-level speaker, the lesson will cover all four language's abilities: listening, speaking, writing and reading. My suggestion of a well planned lesson is, for any level, to divide it into two parts: grammar first and then conversation (covering all the abilities mentioned above).

Thank you for your attention and looking forward to meeting you !!

Firstly, this lesson ensures that you as a student feel at ease! We will first get to know each other a little bit, and then you can tell me what you expect/want in a lesson, or what you specifically need. Step by step, I will ensure you, that you as a student, will learn the Dutch language. You will come to me for different reasons, for example for an integration exam, or because you live temporarily as an expat in the Netherlands and want to learn the language, others enjoy it as a hobby and others come to the Netherlands for love... There are so many reasons! My lessons are tailored to your wishes, you indicate what you want, and I will help you with it, which will make you feel more at ease. From teenage to adult students, from beginner to advanced and in between, I enjoy teaching my classes all over the world! Curious?! Then I hope to see you in my class! Greetings Carolina

Mathematics is the best way to enhance your intellect, create bridges between abstract and reality and find the hidden beauty of life.

Good day, my name is Mike. I'm studying at Shanghai University and I've had the privilege of helping over many peers and other students for 3 years. As an experienced teacher, most of my friends and peers believe that I have been doing quite well.

This course is mainly focused on GCSE tutoring, yet math problems from other legal sources may also be accepted.

By the way, the language for classes is English.

Before you go any further, let me introduce myself.
I come from Shanghai, China. I got 138(A+) out of 150 in English GaoKao.
I have no problem in English communication at all and ranked top 0.1% in the English contest for senior high school students in Shanghai.
Besides, I self-taught myself plane geometry(PG) for just 50 days from scratch and surprisingly aced the entire PG part in the preliminary contest of the CMO.

My methodology is as follows:
1. I can show the definitions/examples of a certain type of problems to you.
2. I offer you some similar problems for training and revision in class, then I analyze them.
3. I don't give homework every time, yet I might offer you some interesting problems to solve or valuable facts to know, as your interest and ability in self-directed inquiry is quite important, whose importance grows as you go on with your academic journey.
4. If you wish to bring your own problems and ask about them first, that's okay.
N.B. Please double-check which examination institution you have chosen and inform me(e.g. AQA, Edexcel and so on).

My approach combines teaching and mentoring, taking a holistic approach to ensure improvements in all aspects of a student's development. I am patient and adaptable to the needs of each student.
I adapt my teaching style to fit each student’s unique needs, helping them build the confidence and resilience necessary to succeed both inside and outside the classroom.

Through my own experiences of overcoming obstacles and achieving success, I’m passionate about helping others do the same.

Let’s work together to ensure you reach your full potential, both academically and personally! So be free to book my classes and look forward to carving a niche for yourself in your life journey!

Buongiorno!

Looking for words (and a great conversation)? Learn Italian with me!

Tired of the usual apps with unlikely phrases like "Il ragno beve latte"? If you really want to learn how to order a coffee without hesitation, understand the nuances of a film or simply chat with ease, you’ve come to the right place.

I teach Italian in a dynamic, personalised way that’s anything but boring:

- Real-Life Conversation: Let’s talk about culture, current affairs, food, films or your interests.

- Stress-Free Grammar: I’ll explain it clearly, without turning it into a nightmare.

- Tailor-Made Lessons: Whether you’re starting from scratch or want to perfect your advanced level, we’ll adapt to your pace and goals.

Online lessons on Zoom or Skype.

📩 Message me privately to book your first session or for more information.

Italian is a rich and beautiful language. Understanding the romance of Italian songs, knowing how to speak with locals, or simply wanting to impress your friends, learning the most beautiful of languages has many benefits.
Having lived in Italy for 2 years myself, my course will be based on concrete conversations and also on contemporary Italian culture.
You will learn to converse using a method that allowed me to become fluent in Italian in 6 months. It's simply a matter of speaking without worrying about mistakes and, above all, with complete confidence. By speaking regularly, even making mistakes, your brain will automatically adapt its language to match that of the tutor (me) and you will learn vocabulary, grammar, etc., much faster.
Of course, preparatory sheets will be sent to you before each lesson so that you don't start from scratch. I will also send you "homework" based on your difficulties and weaknesses.
I'm really looking forward to teaching Italian to motivated students and I'm ready to start tomorrow!

Get ready to use Spanish confidently on your next trip! This practical, conversation-based class focuses on real situations such as airport check-ins, ordering at restaurants, asking for directions, booking accommodation, handling problems, and understanding useful local expressions.

Through role-plays and topics connected to travel and Latin American culture, you’ll learn the Spanish you actually need—without unnecessary grammar exercises. Lessons are adapted to your destination, level, goals, and departure date, whether you’re starting from scratch or need a quick refresher before your flight.

I offer private classes of school revision and English for primary, ESO and batxillerat students, adapted to the level, needs and objectives of each student.

I am a graduate of the Double Degree in Administration and Business Management and Economics from the University of Girona and have various years of experience teaching private classes and working as an English teacher for children and adolescents.

I have studied since I was little at an English school, Saint George's School, which has allowed me to acquire an advanced level of English. I also have the C2 certificate.

In the classes we can work on English (grammar, vocabulary, speaking, writing, reading and listening), prepare for exams, do homework or reinforce other school subjects. The methodology is adapted to each student, with the objective of solving doubts, improving academic results and ensuring confidence and autonomy.

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.
