Mathematics is not a matter of talent, but of method and confidence.

For over 35 years, I have been supporting middle and high school students who wish to consolidate their foundations, prepare for the Brevet or the Baccalaureate, or rediscover the pleasure of understanding mathematics.

My goal is simple: to enable each student to progress at their own pace through clear explanations, an effective working method and personalized support.

What we work on together
Understand the concepts of the course rather than learning them by heart.
Go back to basics when they are not sufficiently mastered.
Solve the exercises using a clear and rigorous method.
Prepare for tests, the Brevet and the Baccalaureate.
Developing autonomy and self-confidence.
A teaching method adapted to each student

Every student is different. Some need to review the fundamentals, others want to delve deeper or aim for an excellent grade. I adapt the content, pace, and exercises to each student's needs.

The courses take place entirely online with an interactive whiteboard and screen sharing. We solve the exercises together in real time, allowing for work that is just as effective as in-person classes.

Session Procedure

60-minute session

Ideal for preparing for a test, understanding a difficult concept or correcting homework.

90-minute session

Recommended for a refresher course, the complete study of a chapter or preparation for the Baccalaureate.

My commitment

Beyond exam success, I want each student to leave with a better understanding of mathematics, more confidence, and a work method that they can reuse throughout their schooling.

If you are looking for an experienced, patient and attentive teacher, I would be happy to guide you in your progress.

1- How's the weather up there in Durham?
2- Terrible! It's cold, cloudy and wet.
3- It's always rainy here in March.
4- What's it like down in Cornwall.
5- Great. It's hot and sunny.
6- We're really lucky.

Translation

two holidays

(On the phone)
1- What is the weather like up there in Durham?
2- Awful! It's cold, cloudy and rainy.
3- It is always rainy here in March.
4- How is it over there in Cornwall?
5- Great. It is warm and sunny.
6- We are really lucky.

Notes:

Terrible: “awful”, “ugly”
Example:
The weather's terrible --> The weather is terrible.
It has no positive connotation like in French. There are a number of English words that are "treacherous", meaning they sound like "homegrown" words but have a different meaning. We'll get to that later.

Here's how to form an adjective from a noun:
a cloud --> a cloud.
cloudy --> cloudy.

The rain --> the rain.
Rainy --> rainy.

Always: always (all the time, constantly)
It's always hot in Cornwall. --> It's always hot in Cornwall.

Here: here indicates the location of the speaker: The weather here is great. Whereas there denotes a distant place (over there) What's the weather like there?.

Preparing for the SAT, GRE, or GMAT math sections and want to stop losing points on problems you actually know how to solve?
This course is built around one goal: getting you the highest possible score on test day, in the shortest time, with the least wasted effort.
I'm a State Engineer (IAV Hassan II) with a CPGE background in Mathematics and Physics — the most rigorous math preparation track in the Moroccan system. The math on these standardized tests is well within that level, which means I don't just know how to solve these problems — I know multiple ways to solve them, and I'll teach you the fastest and most reliable one for exam conditions.

What's covered — by exam:
1-SAT Math

- Heart of Algebra (linear equations, systems, inequalities)
- Problem Solving & Data Analysis (ratios, percentages, statistics)
- Passport to Advanced Math (quadratics, functions, polynomials)
- Additional Topics (geometry, trigonometry, complex numbers)
- Calculator vs. no-calculator strategy

2-GRE Quantitative Reasoning

- Arithmetic and number properties
- Algebra and coordinate geometry
- Data interpretation and statistics
- Quantitative comparison strategy
- Time management under pressure

3-GMAT Quantitative / Focus Edition

- Problem Solving and Data Sufficiency
- Data Insights section
- Elimination strategies for tricky wording
- Pacing and guessing strategy

My teaching approach:
Standardized math tests are not about being good at math — they're about recognizing patterns, avoiding traps, and managing time. I teach you both: the actual math and the test-taking strategy that separates a 650 from a 750 on the GRE, or a 680 from a 780 on the SAT.
Every session is personalized. We start with a diagnostic — I identify exactly which question types are costing you the most points — then we build sessions around fixing those specifically. No wasted time on things you already know.

Who this is for:

Students targeting top universities in the US, UK, or Europe (SAT)
Professionals applying to MBA or graduate programs (GMAT / GRE)
Anyone who feels "stuck" at a score plateau and needs a structured push
Students with strong school math who just need to learn the test format

What I offer:

Diagnostic session to assess your current level and target score gap
Personalized session plan based on your exam date and weak areas
Practice problems with detailed step-by-step breakdowns
Timed mock drills to build exam-day confidence
Available for intensive short-term prep (2–4 weeks) or longer structured programs

Learn simple and useful English for your job, meetings, and everyday work tasks. Improve your speaking, listening, and confidence step by step.
Helpful for students and professionals who want better English for exams and the workplace.

Apart from IELTS preparation and practical English for work, each class is personalized to fit the unique needs and goals of every student. What I teach includes General English, covering all four skills: listening, reading, speaking, and writing. Students also improve vocabulary and grammar based on their interests, and learn with videos, podcasts, and other multimedia materials. Classes include exam preparation as well. For English Communication, I focus on public speaking and presentations, improving vocabulary and fluency in topics students enjoy, accent reduction, and clearer pronunciation. Students practice listening, pronunciation, and the North American accent, with attention to common mistakes like homophones, intonation, and stress in speaking.
