Teaching Format:
The lessons I provide are always adapted to suit the student's needs and ability. My focus is to assist the student to feel successful and find success in learning science!
With a solid science and teaching background, I can fully relate to the challenges students face when studying a scientific concept and the importance of bridging the knowledge to the real world. I strive to achieve a relaxed yet educational learning atmosphere where I use humor, real-world topics during discussions and writing exercises to help students apply the knowledge acquired. I emphasize my teaching based on applying keywords and finding out the objective of the question, so my lessons will be aligned with that concept in mind.

Graduated from EPFL and Harvard, I offer courses in scientific subjects (to you or your child). Give your child the means to succeed: new work methods, understanding of the course adapted to the student...

About me: I am a French student, doing a PhD in bioengineering at Imperial College. I went to high school in Paris, and I obtained my Baccalaureate with honors. I did my Bachelor's and Master's in Life Sciences Engineering at EPFL and I spent 6 months at Harvard. I am used to teaching, having been a tutor during my master. I enjoy helping students to understand their mistakes and to reinforce their level in scientific subjects.

I would love to meet you! :)

I offer private lessons in Chemistry to school students following French, British, IB or American systems. Being a PhD-holder in Chemistry from Imperial College London, I also offer support to chemistry students at university level.
Classes are delivered online via Zoom.

In my classes:
- I encourage asking relevant questions and I am willing to repeat explanations as much as necessary.
- I use technological tools and web interfaces to provide visual support to verbal explanations, which I consider a key part of effective teaching.
- I share my own, tailored, class notes and encourage the student to take notes him/herself as practice.
- We solve problems and I also assign homework and correct it in the following lesson.

After my classes, I share my notes with my students to help them retain the information and revise.

Chemistry and Physics are the most challenging subject within high schools and colleges.

With my help, as a student you will learn how to master the basics and understand thoroughly and difficult concepts such as molecular orbitals, organic chemistry reactions and biochemistry.
We will work on the sources and topic provided in class implementing with an easy and comprehensive approach.

**Middle School/High School/Post-Bac (includes specific preparation for the brevet and baccalaureate exams and equivalents depending on the country)** support focused on self-confidence, repetition of exercises and working methods - DAILY supervision and monitoring - Guaranteed results. We also prepare students for their exams or for next year thanks to our weeks of intensive courses!

A private tutor and coach for 10 years, I created my own coaching method with my colleagues Thibault and Charlie. We support many students full-time, systematically ensuring progress of at least 4 points on their average.

“In teaching, like other hobbies, you don't just have to think, you have to practice a lot!”

What allows the student to really progress is the repetition of the exercises to have automatisms. The student's problem is not only to understand the course, but to be sufficiently motivated and supervised on a daily basis to effectively integrate the methods, with automatisms and rigorous writing.

In addition to private lessons, we offer daily remote monitoring which is based on 3 strengths:

1. Create a work framework and routine: we help the student plan their weekly work and send them the necessary exercises, corrections and course materials.

2. Availability at any time: so that the student never gets stuck, he can contact his teacher to ask for a hint for an exercise or a quick explanation by message.

3. Support and motivation: we help the student see their weekly progress and ensure that their motivation remains high throughout the support.

Here is how our students are supported:

After an initial discovery call, the student takes an initial course with their tutor to take stock of their situation, identify their state of mind (motivation levers, confidence) and their room for improvement (gaps, methods not mastered, inaccurate writing, careless or calculating errors).

Depending on the student's assessment, the tutor recommends a tailor-made formula combining private lessons, adapting the number of hours per week and daily remote support.

Daily support focuses on training in REAL CONDITIONS: alone, without course materials or a teacher and with limited time.

The student then sends us their copy, and we provide them with a rigorously written answer key, the corrections for their copy, and their grade the same day. They can then immediately learn from their mistakes and redo the assignment perfectly. The goal is to learn automatically.

Through repetition, this method allows the student to:

- Never get stuck on a question during a DST again
- Improve your time management, by getting used to working in real conditions
- To improve the rigor of its writing
- To reduce the number of careless mistakes

In addition to the training sessions, each coach supports the student through private lessons or telephone coaching sessions, depending on their challenges. Coaching sessions provide time management advice, review work completed, and define future goals.

This monitoring allows us to be as close as possible to the student in their revision, being contactable at any time and being very responsive in correcting their copies.

This method allows us to guarantee a rapid increase in grades: on average, +4 points on the average in less than 6 months (see the numerous testimonials).

The results of this method compared to traditional private lessons are significantly superior. It has allowed many students to go from an average of 11-12 to over 16.

You also have real-time access to the student's work schedule and monitoring of their progress (grades, exercises worked on, concepts and methods acquired) so that you can have an overview of the work carried out and your child's progress.

We can put you in touch with parents of our former students so you can hear their feedback. We can also send you photos of students' exam papers that achieved excellent grades.
