Stress free timing! Use timers for study skills - no need to be scared

92.62 Fr /h

Timing your work is a great way to find focus, understand your learning and be more productive. But it can be scary. It doesn't have to be. Join me for a session on using my stress free timers

If it's back to school, college, university or learning at work, I can help you. I can help you be more productive, have better focus and make use of your procrastination.

Using Cards against Procrastination and my experience in 10 years of university tutoring as well as being a current PhD student I can help you improve your skills and well being.

Sessions can be focussed on what you need - productivity, avoiding bad habits and building new ones.

Returning to learning - PhD, masters or workplace learning - become more efficient and succeed!

38.59 Fr /h

Are you currently studying for a PhD or a Masters? Undertaking workplace courses?
Would you like some help with time management and study skills?

How we learn and process information changes with our skills and knowledge base. If you have returned to education it's likely that what used to work for you now is no longer as useful or efficient. I can help you find out what works for you now and in the future. Practical, easy to use tasks and tools to help you be the best version of your self and improve academic achievements.

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.

Whether you are struggling with your structure, your language or the cohesion of your academic piece, I am happy to help you as a sounding board, partner and guide.

My experience in academic writing spans 5 different academic pieces of writing across 3 degrees and several journal articles, with my LLM paper nominated for an award.

I am aware of all the pitfalls one can encounter in this really challenging process and am therefore transparent with regards to not only the quality of the paper but also your work ethic in order that you can then obtain the best piece of work possible.

Homework support isn't about getting answers faster. It's about learning how to learn.
While some parents see homework as a battle, I see an opportunity: teaching your child how his brain actually works.

In this class, your child will learn:
✓ How to actually study: not "work harder," but use methods that stick (mind maps, spaced repetition, Pomodoro technique)
✓ Time management without stress: organizing a chaotic schedule without anxiety apps
✓ When to use AI wisely: ChatGPT and other tools as learning partners, not cheating shortcuts
✓ Skills that matter: clear communication, problem-solving like a real thinker, asking good questions
✓ Support in any subject: math, languages, science, humanities, whatever they struggle with

How it works:
We start by understanding how your child actually learns, we don't impose a system that doesn't work for him.
Then we build a toolkit: proven study methods, personal strategies, technology used intelligently, and the confidence that he can learn anything.

What they take home:
A study system that works for him, not for others. Techniques he uses across all subjects. And something more important: the belief that learning isn't something that happens to him — it's something he controls.

Format: Online or Barcelona | 60–90 min sessions | Personalized to his age, subjects, and pace.
For parents wondering "Why is homework still a battle?"

Let's rebuild the foundation

Do you feel stuck in your practice or performance? Do you have the skills but struggle to express your musical voice with clarity and confidence? Or maybe you’ve been performing for years but want to take your artistry further — deeper, freer, more authentically you.

That’s where I come in.

I work as a musician, coach & creative mentor, helping performers connect the dots between their artistry, mindset, and professional life.

As a violist and saxophonist with experience in solo, chamber, orchestral, classical, jazz, pop, and world music, I understand the many layers of being a musician today. It’s not just about practicing and performing — it’s also about shaping your identity, reaching your audience, and managing the behind-the-scenes work that keeps your career moving.

💡 In our sessions, we can explore whatever part of your musical journey needs support:

* 🎻 Performance & Interpretation – confidence, expression, storytelling through sound
* 🎶 Chamber & Ensemble Skills – communication, listening, blending
* 🌍 Artistic Identity – shaping your unique voice and presence as a musician
* 💡 Mindset & Stage Presence – overcoming self-doubt, nerves, or creative blocks
* 📲 Practical Support – planning projects, creating content for socials, organizing tools, and simple automations to make your musical life run smoother

You don’t have to do this alone.

Whether you’re a student, an emerging artist, or already established, we’ll work with what’s inside you — your instincts, your strengths, your goals. Sessions can be a one-time deep dive or part of a longer creative journey together.

👉 Think of it as having a coach, mentor, and creative ally for both your music and your career.
