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?

About Me
Dr. Raouf holds a PhD in Mathematics and has extensive experience in higher education and personalized academic support. I guide high school students (both academic and general) and university students toward excellence.
My teaching method is based on simplifying abstract concepts and mastering problem-solving methods.
1. Secondary Education
Analysis: In-depth study of functions (logarithms, exponentials), limits, derivatives and integral calculus.
Linear Algebra: Analytic geometry in space, vectors, and systems of equations (Gaussian method).
Complex Numbers: Algebraic, trigonometric forms and resolution in .
Preparation for the Final Examination: Intensive work on past exam papers (Past papers).

2. Higher Education
Calculus & Real Analysis: Sequences, series, generalized integrals.
Matrix algebra: Vector spaces, diagonalization, eigenvalues.

My Online Methodology

Digital tools: A shared Word document is used in real time to explain the lesson and complete exercises. This document is sent to the student as a PDF at the end of the lesson.
Personalized follow-up: Sending a summary of the lesson and application exercises after each session.
Education
Master's degree in Mathematics. PhD in Applied Mathematics. Mathematical researcher at the Modeling Laboratory of the National Engineering School of Tunis. My areas of expertise in mathematics range from the foundational concepts acquired during secondary education to advanced mathematics at the Bachelor's and Master's levels, as well as preparatory classes for engineering studies. I am also proficient in the numerical analysis and functional analysis curricula taught in engineering schools.
Experience / Qualifications
A career spanning more than 20 years in an engineering school in Tunisia whose training programs are EUR-ACE accredited.

As an experienced mathematics teacher, I offer online private tutoring for high school and university students in Belgium, France, and Switzerland. My courses cover the entire curriculum, from secondary school through the first years of university in science, economics, or engineering.
- For high school students: strengthening of the basics in algebra, geometry and analysis, homework help, preparation for official exams (Higher Secondary Education Certificate, Baccalaureate, specific tests).
- For students: advanced university mathematics with a focus on analysis, linear algebra and numerical methods.
My teaching methods are adapted to the online format, with clear explanations, interactive exercises, and personalized support to ensure progress. The first session is for a precise assessment of your needs.
Key points
- Flexible courses (1 to 2 hours per session) via videoconference using Zoom or Teams.
- Use of digital tools to facilitate understanding (interactive whiteboards, screen sharing).
- Direct application to Belgian programs and requirements of school and university examinations.

Session 1: Revolutionizing your Scientific Writing with LaTeX & AI
Duration: 2 Hours | Level: Beginner | Tools: Overleaf + AI**

First Hour: Foundations and Cloud Environment (60 min)

1. Introduction to LaTeX Philosophy (15 min)

- The "WYSIWYM" concept:** Explain the difference between Word (*What You See Is What You Get*) and LaTeX (*What You See Is What You Mean*). Why content takes precedence over form.
- Key advantages:** Unrivaled typographic quality, automatic reference management, stability on long documents (theses), and free of charge.
- The structure of a file:** Distinction between the **preamble** (the brain: settings and packages) and the **body of the document** (the heart: text).

2. Immersion in Overleaf (25 min)

- Configuration:** Creation of an account and first project "Blank Project".
- Exploring the interface:** The file panel (left), the code editor (middle) and the PDF preview (right).
- Real-time collaboration:** How to share a project and leave comments (like on Google Docs).
- History and versions:** How to revert to a previous version in case of a compilation error.

3. Practical Workshop: My First Document (20 min)

* Writing basic commands: `\documentclass`, `\usepackage[french]{babel}`, `\title`, `\author`.
* Compilation of the document and observation of the result.
* Structuring: Use of `\section` and `\subsection`.

Second Hour: Mathematics and the Magic of AI (60 min)

4. The Power of Mathematics (20 min)

- Mathematical modes:** Difference between the text (`$...$`) and the centered block (`\[...\]`).
- Essential syntax:** Fractions `\frac{}{}`, exponents `^`, indices `_`, and roots `\sqrt{}`.
- Introduction to AMS packages: Why amsmath and amssymb are essential for professional rendering.

5. From hand to screen: AI at the service of LaTeX (30 min)

- Presentation of OCR tools:** Use of **Mathpix Snip** (the leader) or models like Gemini/ChatGPT to transform a photo into code.
- Concrete demonstration:
1. Take a picture of a complex handwritten formula (e.g., an integral with matrices).
2. Use AI to generate the corresponding LaTeX code.
3. Correction and insertion: Learn to check the AI-generated code before copying and pasting it into Overleaf.

6. Conclusion and Q&A (10 min)

* Summary of achievements.
* Resources for further exploration
* Definition of the exercise for the next session.

My goal is to help you excel in IB Mathematics, Computer Science, and Physics, both at SL and HL!

As an IB teacher in training, I understand first-hand the subjects' curricula and requirements. But as an IB graduate myself, I understand the daily experience of being a student of the most challenging high school program out there: sweeping through pages of literature, missing out weekends with friends, and integrating functions in my sleep.

But I also remember all the dreams I had as a teenager, and how I pushed myself day by day to get a score that would make those dreams come true.

A few years later, here I am. After graduating in Computer Science from the University of Luxembourg, and I am finally ready and happy to support your own learning and dreams!

For over two years, I've been tutoring students at international schools in Luxembourg. This experience has not only deepened my understanding of the IB but also introduced me to other curricula like the European Baccalaureate and the GCSE.

The IB approach is known for being extremely challenging on more than the academic level, so sometimes we might need to try a few creative strategies and tricks that I used — like memorising trigonometric values by drawing funny images on your hands, reciting verses about sad turtles, or using colourful pens to sketch images that help you remember ideas. These might seem a bit unusual, but they've proven to work wonders!

I’m available for tutoring both online with flexible scheduling options to accommodate your studies without adding stress. I use HD videocamera, interactive writing tools, AI diagnosis, and the latest materials to tailor this class exactly for you.

Moreover, I have also helped my students deliver IA projects that got them A and B grades.
