SAT/ACT Preparation - For Paris Lycéens/High School students trying to enter US universities
course price icon
Àpd 299.81 CNY /h
arrow icon
I offer one-to-one SAT preparation sessions for students in Paris looking to enter American Universities.

My lessons will focus on both the reading and writing sections and mathematics section. For the first I will work with students to improve their English reading and reasoning ability and practice writing the short essays on the topics from past-papers. The maths sessions will include close work on previous problems and general mathematics principles required for the exam.

I will also review exam technique and approach with my students. The SATs/ACT are long exams with high-time pressure and good time management is crucial for achieving a high score.


A little more about me: I am English/Irish and live in Paris. I entered the US university system as a foreign student after achieving a 1480 in my SATs in 2016. I attended New York University (2016-2020) achieving a GPA of 3.96 and finished in the top 1% of my graduation class. I also completed the post-graduate GRE aptitude tests and achieved scores in the 91st percentile. I then attended École Normale Supérieure and attained my masters' degree in 2022.

Présentation
I am an English/Irishman living in Paris. I work as a research engineer at the Insitut Jean Nicod at École Normale Supérieure. I am a native English speaker and speak French at a functional level.

I offer SAT/ACT preparation classes for students in Paris who would like to study in the US. I really loved studying in the US and would love to help young French people to be able to have the same academic and personal experience.

I love teaching and have given classes to high-schools students on Philosophy and History and I have worked as a teaching assistant in undergraduate classes in the US.

Hello my name is Audrey!
I'm a student in international relations and Chinese foreign languages at INALCO. Because of my studies and having traveled a lot, I know how difficult it can be to learn a foreign language and how difficult it can be to overcome certain levels and to be confident in a language that is not our mother tongue.
That's why I offer you my help! I am a French native from Poitou Charente. I traveled all around the world when i was
a teenager and a young adult especially in Asia. Now i'm finishing my studies in Paris. For several years, I have been teaching English to children and adults of all levels. I have accompanied Koreans, Iranians, French etc.
My goal is that you enjoy learning English and reach your goals. The course will be totally personalized and adapted to your needs and interests. I will also introduce you to the culture during our lessons (current events, highlights of the year, etc.) because in order to learn a language you need to understand the culture of the country.
My classes will focus on the five skills: speaking, writing, listening, reading and grammar. Of course, if you wish to work on only one aspect in particular, this will be possible.
We can use the material you have or we can also work with the resources I have.
At your request and according to your needs I can give you homework to continue your efforts outside of our classes.

Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions. I will be happy to discuss with you your expectations, your goals and my work method.

I look forward to helping you in your quest to master the English language.

Théo
A PhD student in mathematics and passionate about teaching, I have been working as a teacher for 5 years. I offer courses primarily in person, but also online, guaranteeing excellent results for my students.

I've had over 50 students, and I'm proud to say that 100% of my final-year students passed their baccalaureate exams. While progress varies from student to student, they generally gain at least 3 points on their average, and this can go up to 15 points.

I primarily offer in-person group classes. This format, which I prefer, fosters a strong sense of competition, greater motivation, and faster progress. I also cover preparation for the Baccalaureate exam, mathematics olympiads, and various competitive entrance exams. Individual tutoring is available only on a case-by-case basis, depending on the student's profile, objectives, and availability.

My teaching approach is rigorous and strict, but it also relies on a close relationship that is essential to motivate and guide the student.

Thanks to my experience and mastery of the curriculum, I establish clear and precise objectives, achievable within a defined timeframe. My main goal is to help students succeed academically, advise them on their future plans, and strengthen their self-confidence, a crucial element for success.

To establish a relationship of trust and partnership, I focus on preparing students for the future and the professional world. My approach goes beyond academic teaching: it is centered on developing skills and achieving results.

Methodology :

From the very first lesson, I set specific, measurable goals in terms of time and results, and I commit to achieving them. A thorough understanding of the student's background is essential. Therefore, lessons are personalized to meet the specific needs of each student and their parents.

In addition to understanding and technique, I also work on learning methodology. My lessons are concise, precise, and above all interactive, promoting comprehension and memorization.

The level of detail and the type of exercises depend on the student's level and the institution they attend. Exercises are assigned and corrected between lessons to monitor progress.

I also offer coaching, including work on the student's self-confidence and motivation.

Internships are organized during the holidays to improve student performance and strive for excellence.

Advantages :

Follow-up by phone, with a guaranteed response in less than one hour.
Flexibility in course duration.
Guidance for higher education and choosing options in secondary school.
Courses taught directly by me, without intermediaries, guaranteeing a quality experience and expertise.
Even if we don't work together, I remain available to advise you on your children's educational path or on strategies to adopt.
