Private lessons in math, physics-chemistry and science.
Give your child the future he deserves. Do you want to significantly increase your child's average? Do you want it to become autonomous? For 2 years, I have helped more than 10 students in difficulty from college (sixth, fifth, fourth, third) and high school (second, first, terminal) to achieve their goals (good average, baccalaureate,) and to regain confidence in them. I am a student at INSAT. I had my scientific baccalaureate with an average of 16 so there is no need to worry;). I offer support courses in (physics, chemistry, math, science), each course is adapted according to the level of the student. My method in 3 points: - short term: significantly increase the average by assimilating the course and preparing for the next tests (assimilating the course, training in standard exercises, anticipating the teacher's expectations and test questions) - medium term: integrate reasoning and work methods assimilation, training exercise) - long-term: set a goal, build the steps to achieve this goal, become aware, have confidence in your abilities, unlock your potential) My greatest reward is to see my students progress, overcome difficulties and flourish throughout the school year, so do not hesitate to contact me for any additional information. I wish you very good luck in your research. Cordially.

Dillan
Knowledgeable A-Level & GCSE Science Tutor / Medical Student
Hello! I am Dillan and I am 19 years old. I have completed my A-Levels and GCSEs and studied at a top grammar school in the UK, and I am currently a Medical student. I am a keen and enthusiastic tutor with experience. I have a few years of tutoring experience. I have taught many students subjects such as Chemistry, Biology, Physics, Mathematics and Computer Science. I have had students initially reach level 5 in specific issues, and through hard work and some guidance, they reached level 9 as their final GCSE grade. My teaching style is interactive whiteboard lessons; I use my iPad to annotate and write notes on the virtual whiteboard. My primary focus is to allow the students to understand the material through annotated diagrams. To ensure engagement throughout the lessons, students will be asked different questions, such as why something behaves this way or why this is the answer. I do not just aim for the students to memorise the material but instead to understand the material at hand. From the very beginning, exam questions will be used. I use exam questions from the beginning to help students understand how the mark scheme is structured. Starting exam questions early allows students to practice and perfect their exam technique for the most excellent chance of success in the actual exams. The subjects I offer are: Chemistry: KS3, GCSE and A-Level Physics: KS3, GCSE Biology: KS3, GCSE and A-Level Maths: KS3, GCSE English: KS3, GCSE Computer Science: KS3, GCSE and A-Level Economics: GCSE Medical School Tutoring: Personal Statement advice, UCAT, BMAT & Medical Interviews Python: Beginner and Intermediate lessons

Homework help & MATH lessons on COLLE / St PAUL & Surroundings - By PROFESSOR OF TRADE & PROFESSIONAL COACH
By PROFESSOR & PROFESSIONAL COACH Hello, First of all, I wanted to wish you an excellent return to school, as well as a peaceful year in order to achieve your goals, aware that the economic situation can prove to be delicate at certain times. This is why I propose to accompany your child through his school career with more ease and serenity. To date, it is different contexts that lead me to exercise my profession of Graduate Teacher & Graduate Professional Coach as well. Until last year, in front of a whole class as well as in Private Lessons. And since this year, in the face-to-face mode in Private Lessons at Home as well as in videoconference mode, moreover practiced for ten years with our Students at the University. Besides that, my teaching environment has changed greatly, especially since the appearance of Covid. This had the positive consequences of making our young secondary school students evolve in this brand new mode of learning and communication that is videoconferencing for them. What turned out to be a great success even if our less mature young people are still very demanding of attention and psycho-emotional connection in order to build their autonomy in peace. Over the past two decades, I have implemented proven methodological approaches. For some, borrowed from Theater, the Davis method (mind mappings/colors), Professional Coaching (my specialty) in order to boost your child's motivation ... My main goal is to develop a certain agility in your child, in all subjects. For now, as for his future, when I will no longer be present by his side ... In the end, working on a subject in order to gain points does not seem to me to be a sufficiently nurtured objective; convinced by the fact of exercising alongside the profession of Mental Coach with our young Athletes between Nice and Cannes, as well as in Europe (by videoconference), as part of their preparation for the French Tennis Championships ... Finally, Professor in General Education, mainly in scientific subjects, I suggest you support your child, to gain agility in the construction of his school career, in this period so unique but oh so rich in its opportunities and challenges. See you soon Corinne.
