Private online mathematics lessons - Qualified and experienced teacherI 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 perfect knowledge of the mathematics program of the College and the High School (from the Sixth to the Terminale). During my formative years, I studied and developed many techniques that make it easier to learn math. The strength of my pedagogical approach lies in my ability to explain in a simple way everything that the student finds complicated. I am passionate about this job because it gives me the opportunity to guide dropout students on the path to success. It is a real pleasure to see them evolve and come to terms with the fantastic world of mathematics.
I provide my private lessons in Limoges (at the student's home) or remotely (online via the internet). My distance learning courses take place on an interactive online whiteboard. This board is specially designed to promote student/teacher interaction on the internet. Thanks to this educational tool, my online courses are as effective as home courses. The student only needs an internet connection and a computer, tablet, or smartphone to take advantage of it.

Biology - GCSE, A level tutoring and primary school teaching**Class Description:**
This tutoring service offers comprehensive support for GCSE and A-Level Biology students across all UK examination boards. Each session is specifically tailored to the individual learning needs of the student, focusing on both the academic requirements of their syllabus and their personal progress.
As a fourth-year medical student, I bring a deeper understanding of biology through advanced studies and real-world applications, allowing me to provide insight into the subject beyond the curriculum. My teaching approach goes beyond simply preparing for exams; while exam-style questions will be regularly incorporated to ensure familiarity with the format and structure of assessments, the main focus will be on fostering a thorough and long-lasting understanding of biological concepts.
Homework will be assigned after every lesson to reinforce the topics covered and ensure consistent progress. Additionally, exam-style questions will be systematically reviewed and analysed, equipping students with the confidence and exam techniques needed to excel in their qualifications. With this combination of tailored tutoring, practical insight, and academic support, students will be empowered to master their Biology studies and achieve their goals.
I hold advanced DBS certification, have worked with children before and also work in psychology and paediatrics within the NHS.

General definition of cell, cell structure, the difference between prokaryotic and eukaryotic cellThe cell, the fundamental unit of all living beings, is a complex structure composed of different elements working in harmony.
The plasma membrane: the protective envelope
The plasma membrane is a semi-permeable barrier that delimits the cell and separates it from its environment. It consists of a double layer of phospholipids, in which various proteins are integrated. These proteins play a crucial role in the transport of substances across the membrane, cell communication and cell recognition.
The cytoplasm: the internal environment
The cytoplasm is the aqueous medium inside the cell. It contains many organelles, inclusions, and the cytosol. The cytosol is the liquid part of the cytoplasm, rich in enzymes and molecules necessary for the chemical reactions of the cell.
The Core: The Control Center
The nucleus is a characteristic organelle of eukaryotic cells. It contains the genetic information of the cell in the form of DNA, organized into chromosomes. The nucleus is surrounded by a nuclear envelope pierced by nuclear pores that allow the exchange of molecules between the nucleus and the cytoplasm.
Organelles: specialized factories
Organelles are specialized structures present in the cytoplasm. Each of them fulfills a specific function:
Mitochondria: Nicknamed the "power plants" of the cell, they are the seat of cellular respiration, a process that produces the energy needed by the cell.
The endoplasmic reticulum: A network of membranes involved in the synthesis of proteins and lipids.
The Golgi apparatus: A set of flattened sacs that modify, package, and distribute proteins and lipids synthesized by the endoplasmic reticulum.
Lysosomes: Small vesicles containing digestive enzymes that break down unnecessary or damaged molecules.
The cytoskeleton: the skeleton of the cell
The cytoskeleton is a network of protein filaments that gives the cell its shape, allows it to move, and organizes its organelles. It is made up of three types of filaments: microfilaments, intermediate filaments, and microtubules.
The differences between prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells
There are two main types of cells: prokaryotic cells (bacteria) and eukaryotic cells (animals, plants, fungi). Prokaryotic cells are simpler and do not have a nucleus or membrane-bound organelles. Eukaryotic cells, on the other hand, are more complex and have a nucleus and many organelles.

AQA A-level biology exam preparation and content tutoring sessions“Biology at A-level is nothing like GCSE” , believe me I know. I understand how overwhelming the jump from GCSE biology to A-level biology can be. As a first year university student who has completed my biology A-level in the summer, I’ve been through the challenges you’re all facing and I’m here to help you overcome them. In my tutoring sessions we will focus on:
- mastering any topics from the AQA specification you guys are unsure about, breaking them down into easy to understand concepts and focusing on parts you need to know for your exam.
- practice exam questions in every session with detailed feedback to sharpen your exam technique and to know what the examiners are looking for.
-EFFECTIVE revision techniques which will help you retain any key bits of information.
Each session will leave you confident in biology, ensure you build a strong understanding of the topic and feel prepared for your exams.

Studying the biology of all living things and other components of biologyBiology can be tricky as it contains lots of different components. This can be introduced slowly as I will provide support over lessons teaching you lots of information but a slow and steady pace giving you questions and answers along the way. Homework will also be provided this is to ensure that the lesson has stuck into your head and you have grasped it. If not there is no worries as things can take a while to learn but by the end you will feel a lot less stress about what you may be learning in biology. You may be finding one specific topic in biology hard and we can always go over that in the lesson or we can find stuff to look over in the lessons to keep your brains up to date for upcoming important exams.
