Mathematics Private Lessons and Workshops for all levels, from middle school to postgraduate education.

I am a passionate teacher and I care for all my students. Learning mathematics is an emotional exercise. I always considered that being a good teacher is not only a mix of professional knowledge and skills, but also an ability to empathise and build relationships with the students. I do believe that the emotional and the affective dimensions of teaching are fundamental to being an effective teacher. When asked to complete the sentence “A good teacher should...”, a French pupil responded “listen to us, support us, teach us”.

In all my teaching experience, whether at sixth grade or at college and graduate levels, I have found that instead of getting frustrated with my students’ knowledge gaps and misconceptions, I could make my teaching more satisfying and more effective, by recognizing that all the students have learning potential and intellectual curiosity and by encouraging them to get a deeper understanding of the mathematical concepts.

The fluid nature of the Internet creates a learning environment that could be highly motivating for students raised within the digital era. I believe that, since the real purpose of education is to prepare and equip students for what happens beyond the classroom, the online collaborative learning communities can be also very efficient.

About Me

My private practice is based on more than 25 years of teaching, tutoring, counselling, and research in Europe and Asia. I promote positive education in mathematics, encouraging students to use their strengths and to love mathematics. I have taught mathematics at all levels, from middle school (e.g., The French International School of Hong Kong) to high school (e.g., National Colleges in Romania) and to University level both undergraduate and postgraduate (e.g., City University of Hong Kong).

While teaching in multi-cultural environments, I aimed for a culturally sensitive pedagogy. In International Schools, students have different biographical or cultural background and consequently, individual ways of thinking and posing the various mathematics operations. When different approaches are explicitly confronted in mathematics private lessons, learners can relativize their personal views, widen their learning perspectives, and acquire deeper chances for real mathematics learning.

Education is not an island, but part of the continent of culture. Twelve years ago I noticed that my students had mathematical anxiety and thus, aiming to become a better teacher, I decided to study more about emotions, neurosciences and psychological counselling. Adding positive psychology methods to mathematics education have proved to be a success formula and my students had benefited: “We love mathematics because you let us express ourselves and we are not afraid to make mistakes”.

When students are given opportunities to ask their own questions and to formulate problems, they know mathematics is still alive, not something that has been already decided and just needs to be memorized. Posing and sharing with my students problem-based investigations, I see that they enjoy mathematics more and that they feel as the owners of their work.

Education

PhD in Applied Mathematics (Romania), Master of Education (University of Bristol), Master of Counselling (Monash University), PGC Psychology and Neuroscience of Mental Health (King’s College London)

Experience / Qualifications

I am an experienced highly educated teacher of mathematics and a psychological counsellor who helps teenagers and young adults to use problem-solving skills and cognitive behavior therapy to address their emotional needs and academic anxiety.

Mikael
French student at ETH, tutoring in French mathematics and physics in Zurich
I am a French student in Zurich (at ETH) and offers French, maths and physics classes. I'm used to it and I've been tutoring for several years. I like it a lot - I also want to be a teacher and researcher, be patient, even if I expect a lot from the student. The goal is to better understand the basics and show what is interesting in the subject, so that the student is properly motivated.

Eduardo
Physics Graduate student for Physics, Mathematics, Spanish, Chemistry
I'm a Spanish student currently studying a Quantum Information MSc at ETH Zürich. Physics is my passion and I love to teach it, always in a way that the student can understand the concepts and see the beauty behind them. I have taught an uncountable number of students of all kind of levels, from school children that need help with the course to adult people seeking to pass a physics exam for a pilot license or university students. In my 6 years of experience on teaching, what I have learnt is that usually most students just need a bit of motivation, and the best way to give them that motivation is showing them that physics and mathematics are beautiful and fun! I have a Surface Pro tablet that I normally use for aid during the class. It's very useful to show the students animations, videos and figures in order to transmit a better explanation of the concepts. I can also use it for giving classes through online videocall, sharing my screen and writing in it as it were a blackboard. I'm native Spanish so I can teach Spanish as well. Note: I'm currently learning German, so I'll be able to give classes in English or Spanish only.

Benoit
Private math lessons - Limoges or online - Qualified and experienced math teacher
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 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.

Mavi
Math, Physics and Science tutoring for children and teenagers: IB MYP, IGCSE, and GCSE.
I am Mavi, a physics engineer working at an aerospace company. I have been teaching private lessons at the primary, secondary, high school, and university preparatory levels for 9 years. I teach mathematics, physics, chemistry, and science. I have a good command of the curricula of IB, IGCSE, American, Hong Kong, and international schools. Additionally, I hold the position of president at the Astronomy Society, where I foster my students' interest in astronomy and science beyond the lessons. I prepare the learning environment by incorporating experiments and exploration, moving away from rote education. I often bring experimental materials to class, aiming to make learning memorable through hands-on experiments. As an educational mentor, I approach my students as if they were my siblings, valuing creativity. I have a deep passion for mathematics, physics, and science. I am dedicated to helping students understand and learn because life encompasses both SCIENCE and ART. The more people I can inspire to know, understand, and love mathematics, physics, and chemistry, the more proud I am. Are you curious about how nature works? Let's explore together!
