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.

As a senior high school student, my main goal is to teach students about the beauty of mathematics and demystify concepts. Over the years, I've developed a deep foundation in this subject, it's a way of thinking, a mindset. I have participated in national and international mathematics competitions, and for this particular reason i am exposed to expand my knowledge and critical thinking. In any mathematics class, my utmost aim is to ensure that the student understands math concepts thoroughly before memorizing formulas and applying them. Thank you.

The SAT is a landmark exam for many high school students. A good exam score can be instrumental in college admissions. This course is designed to provide students with resources to set a goal score, make a study plan, and feel confident on test day. I got a 1530 on my most recent SAT, and I am dedicated to uplifting students to and beyond that score.
I can help specifically with the English and Math multiple choice parts of the exam. With students I will cover both content, the information being tested on the exam, and testing strategies, how to more efficiently and effectively take the test. The essay portion of the SAT has mostly been discontinued, so I don't cover it when tutoring for the exam.

Hi, I'm Deepthi!

I'm currently pursuing my Master's degree and have an engineering degree in Industrial Engineering. Ever since I was a child, mathematics has been my favourite subject, and that passion has only grown stronger over the years.

My mother always told me that mathematics isn't about following one fixed process to reach a solution, it's about truly understanding the concept and using that knowledge creatively to find the right answer. That belief has shaped the way I learn, and now, the way I teach.

Does mathematics feel like a puzzle you just can't crack? It doesn't have to.

I believe no student truly hates a subject, they only fear it until someone simplifies it for them. My goal is to be that person for you. From my schooling days through engineering, I've always enjoyed helping friends work through problems, and I'm excited to bring that same energy to students here in Vanves.

I welcome students from primary school through to middle school (ages 6–15), whether you're just building your first number skills or tackling more complex problem-solving.

I don't just want to teach you formulas, I want you to understand the why behind every concept. I believe learning mathematics is about overcoming the fear of mistakes, breaking down any problem with curiosity, and finding joy in the process.

By the end of our time together, my goal is simple — I want you to say "Oh, I get it now!" and actually mean it.

If you have any questions, do not hesitate to contact me.
