Objective: To understand AI without fear, to use it to simplify one's life, to know how to identify digital traps, and to use Word, Excel, etc. without difficulty.

1: Demystifying AI (What exactly is it?)
AI is not a movie robot: Difference between fiction and reality.

How it works (simply): The image of the "giant library": AI has read billions of books and uses them to predict the continuation of a sentence or create an image.

Where is it already present? Spell checkers, Netflix/YouTube suggestions, GPS, and voice assistants (Siri/Alexa).

2: Using AI to make life easier
Conversing with AI (ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini):

Ask him to write an administrative email or a complex letter.

Summarize a long newspaper article or document.

Plan a travel itinerary or find recipe ideas with what's left in the fridge.

AI for creativity and memory:

Generate images to illustrate a birthday card (Midjourney, DALL-E).

Using AI to restore or colorize old family photos.

3: Learning to "talk" to AI (The Art of the Prompt)
The context method: Why "Give me a cake recipe" is less effective than "I am allergic to gluten and I am hosting 4 people, give me a simple chocolate cake recipe".

The expert's role: Learning to tell AI "Act like a travel guide" or "Act like an expert gardener".

4: Precautions and Critical Thinking (The Survival Guide)
"Hallucinations": Understand that AI can make false claims with complete certainty (never take medical or legal advice from AI without verification).

Privacy protection:

Never give sensitive data (social security number, passwords, bank details) to an AI.

Knowing that everything we write to the AI is potentially used to train it.

Spotting "Deepfakes":

How to recognize a doctored image or video (details on the hands, strange reflections, slightly metallic voice).

Verify the information: the golden rule of cross-referencing sources.

5: Ethics and Impacts (To go further)
Copyright: Who owns an image created by AI?

The environmental impact: The water and energy consumption of AI servers.

The future: Will AI replace us or assist us?

B- PERSONALIZED TUTORING: LEARNING HOW TO REASON
Machine learning and artificial intelligence become much more accessible when mathematics, algorithms, Python code, data, and real-world applications are clearly connected.

My lessons help you move beyond simply copying code or using models as “black boxes.” You will learn how to define the problem correctly, prepare the data, select an appropriate algorithm, understand how it works, train and evaluate the model, diagnose errors, improve performance, and interpret results rigorously and responsibly.

Each lesson is personalized according to your current level, mathematical background, programming experience, dataset, university work, research project, interview preparation, or professional objective. We begin by identifying your existing knowledge, software environment, expected outcomes, and main conceptual or technical difficulties. We then establish a structured learning plan.

The first lesson combines a discussion of your background, objectives, and tutoring needs; an initial assessment of your current knowledge; personalized planning and organization of future sessions; and a short trial lesson to determine the most effective learning approach.

A typical session may include conceptual explanation, development of mathematical intuition, live coding, guided implementation, model evaluation, technical problem solving, and a concise summary of the next steps.

You may work with your own dataset, university assignment, research project, or professional problem, provided that confidential information is handled appropriately. I can also provide structured examples and datasets suited to your level.

My goal is not simply to help you run an algorithm. It is to help you understand why it is appropriate, how it learns from data, how to evaluate it correctly, why it may fail, and how to build a reliable, interpretable, and scientifically rigorous solution.

As a Master's student in Data Science at EPFL, a graduate of CentraleSupélec (ranked in the top 3% of my class) and holder of a Bachelor's degree in microtechnology from EPFL, I offer tutoring in mathematics, physics and computer science, from primary school to university level.
My teaching experience
I was a student teaching assistant at EPFL for 8 courses, working with over 400 students. I currently lead the linear algebra and ICC (Information, Computation, Communication) exercise sessions. Each week, I adapt my explanations to each student's level: that's what I love most about teaching.
What I propose
• Primary and secondary school: consolidate the basics (calculation, fractions, geometry, equations), regain confidence and improve methodology.
• Gymnasium / high school (maturity, baccalaureate): functions, analysis, probabilities, vectors, mechanics, electricity, exam preparation.
• University / EPF / preparatory classes: analysis, linear algebra, probability and statistics, numerical analysis, programming (Python, C/C++).
My method
I begin by identifying the real obstacle: a misunderstanding of the concept, a lack of methodology, or stress. Then, I build the sessions based on the student's lessons and exercises. The goal isn't just to pass the next test, but to understand the material and become independent.
Whether you need occasional homework help, regular support, or intensive exam preparation, I adapt to your needs.

Additional materials + practice qs | Lesson plans + regular feedback | Recording + session notes available

A common theme running through our lessons will be to simplify - even topics like electromagnetic induction can be reduced to small bits :)

Together, we'll:
1. Find learning gaps
2. Break concepts into small bits
3. Apply to real world and exam questions
4. Work on exam technique - like the difference between "explain" and "describe" questions
5. Build mark-scheme friendly language

“It's not that I'm so smart, it's just that I stay with problems longer”
- Albert Einstein, while studying superposition of waves, I’m sure :)

B- PERSONALIZED TUTORING: LEARNING HOW TO REASON
Machine learning and artificial intelligence become much more accessible when mathematics, algorithms, Python code, data, and real-world applications are clearly connected.

My lessons help you move beyond simply copying code or using models as “black boxes.” You will learn how to define the problem correctly, prepare the data, select an appropriate algorithm, understand how it works, train and evaluate the model, diagnose errors, improve performance, and interpret results rigorously and responsibly.

Each lesson is personalized according to your current level, mathematical background, programming experience, dataset, university work, research project, interview preparation, or professional objective. We begin by identifying your existing knowledge, software environment, expected outcomes, and main conceptual or technical difficulties. We then establish a structured learning plan.

The first lesson combines a discussion of your background, objectives, and tutoring needs; an initial assessment of your current knowledge; personalized planning and organization of future sessions; and a short trial lesson to determine the most effective learning approach.

A typical session may include conceptual explanation, development of mathematical intuition, live coding, guided implementation, model evaluation, technical problem solving, and a concise summary of the next steps.

You may work with your own dataset, university assignment, research project, or professional problem, provided that confidential information is handled appropriately. I can also provide structured examples and datasets suited to your level.

My goal is not simply to help you run an algorithm. It is to help you understand why it is appropriate, how it learns from data, how to evaluate it correctly, why it may fail, and how to build a reliable, interpretable, and scientifically rigorous solution.

As a Master's student in Data Science at EPFL, a graduate of CentraleSupélec (ranked in the top 3% of my class) and holder of a Bachelor's degree in microtechnology from EPFL, I offer tutoring in mathematics, physics and computer science, from primary school to university level.
My teaching experience
I was a student teaching assistant at EPFL for 8 courses, working with over 400 students. I currently lead the linear algebra and ICC (Information, Computation, Communication) exercise sessions. Each week, I adapt my explanations to each student's level: that's what I love most about teaching.
What I propose
• Primary and secondary school: consolidate the basics (calculation, fractions, geometry, equations), regain confidence and improve methodology.
• Gymnasium / high school (maturity, baccalaureate): functions, analysis, probabilities, vectors, mechanics, electricity, exam preparation.
• University / EPF / preparatory classes: analysis, linear algebra, probability and statistics, numerical analysis, programming (Python, C/C++).
My method
I begin by identifying the real obstacle: a misunderstanding of the concept, a lack of methodology, or stress. Then, I build the sessions based on the student's lessons and exercises. The goal isn't just to pass the next test, but to understand the material and become independent.
Whether you need occasional homework help, regular support, or intensive exam preparation, I adapt to your needs.

Additional materials + practice qs | Lesson plans + regular feedback | Recording + session notes available

A common theme running through our lessons will be to simplify - even topics like electromagnetic induction can be reduced to small bits :)

Together, we'll:
1. Find learning gaps
2. Break concepts into small bits
3. Apply to real world and exam questions
4. Work on exam technique - like the difference between "explain" and "describe" questions
5. Build mark-scheme friendly language

“It's not that I'm so smart, it's just that I stay with problems longer”
- Albert Einstein, while studying superposition of waves, I’m sure :)
