About Me

I am a polymath, I am majoring in chemistry but I am also interested in theoretical physics, sustainable development, permaculture & regenerative agriculture, music, video games as narratives, and linguistics.
I am also a polyglot, I have studied over 30 languages, the ones that I am most comfortable speaking are English, German, French, Polish, Danish and Latin.
I believe that anyone is capable of learning vast amounts of information, given the right approach. I strive to find the right approach to my students and explain abstract ideas in terms that anyone can understand.
I like to combine knowledge from different, seemingly disparate fields and find analogies and parallels between them, and I hope to show my students the beauty of these parallels that tie together so many different areas of learning.

Education

Specialist in Chemistry Radiochemistry, Moscow State University, Department of Chemistry (6-year Chemistry degree; I wrote a thesis on the effects of gamma-radiation on the hydrolysis of lignin)

Experience / Qualifications

I have been teaching physical chemistry to advanced pupils for 4 years, and 5 of my pupils have won the Russian Chemical Olympiad in 2021 and 2022, amongst other regional Olympiads.

Living Latin through Comprehensible Input (Contemporary and Medieval Latin)

22.48 € /h

You will learn Latin the way it was meant to be learned - through conversation! Medieval scholars and contemporary language researchers alike advocate the use of dialogues and comprehensible input for language acquisition, and it most certainly works! As opposed to the "memorise grammar rules and then babble them in front of the class" approach that was demonstrated by the infamous "Romanēs eunt domus" scene from Monty Python's "The Life of Brian", you will learn to feel the grammar, so that you will be able to use the different cases of Latin without even thinking about it, just like a native speaker!
For this class we will be using the following books, depending on the learner's level:
Hans Øreberg's "Lingua Latīna per sē Illustrāta"
"Corderiī Colloquia"
Erasmus Rask's "Colloquia Familiaria"
John C. Traupman Conversational Latin for Oral Proficiency
I will be the collocutor and I will answer the learner's questions and explain certain oddities solely in Latin (I will use a second language only when the situation calls for it)
We will also engage in free-form conversations, discussions of the dialogues, of our life experiences etc so that the learner can apply what they learn to real-life situations and expand their vocabulary

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 thorough knowledge of the mathematics curriculum for middle and high school (from 6th to 12th grade). I am also qualified to support students in preparing for international exams such as the SAT, the OMPT, and the International Baccalaureate (IB) in all its variations: Analysis and Approaches (AA SL/HL) and Applications and Interpretation (AI SL/HL).

Throughout my years of training, I studied and developed numerous techniques that facilitate learning mathematics. The strength of my teaching approach lies in my ability to explain, in simple terms, anything a student finds complicated. I am passionate about this profession because it offers me the opportunity to guide struggling students toward success. It is a true pleasure to see them progress and rediscover their connection with the fascinating world of mathematics.

I offer private tutoring in Paris (at the student's home) or remotely (online). My online lessons take place on an interactive whiteboard. This whiteboard is specifically designed to facilitate student/teacher interaction online. Thanks to this teaching tool, my online lessons are just as effective as in-person lessons. The student only needs an internet connection and a computer, tablet, or smartphone to participate.

Thanks to math-focused workshops I attended throughout my primary and high school, I have learned how to explain mathematical concepts in simple language. This is what matters most to me — that the students I tutor truly understand mathematics. That is why I use elements of the Hejny method, which is based on guiding students to solve the problems on their own. I mainly ask questions or further explain the theory, which helps students work more independently on problems.

It is important to me that we have enough time to focus not only on what students are currently covering at school, but also on strengthening the fundamentals, which will help them succeed more in the future.

I tutor elementary and high school students who feel unsure about mathematics, and I believe that through working together we can help them feel confident and at home with math.
