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.

Struggling with math, physics, or chemistry? You're not alone — these subjects are hard, and classroom explanations are rarely enough.
I offer personalized tutoring for middle school, high school, and early university students following the French Mission curriculum, the Moroccan national curriculum, or the international baccalaureate.
Topics covered:

Mathematics: algebra, geometry, calculus, trigonometry, probability
Physics: mechanics, electricity, optics, thermodynamics
Chemistry: organic, inorganic, stoichiometry, reactions

My approach:
I don't re-explain the textbook — I identify exactly where your understanding breaks down and fix it from there. Each session is built around your specific difficulties, not a preset program.
I completed CPGE (Classes Préparatoires aux Grandes Écoles) in Mathematics and Physics before graduating as a State Engineer — I know these subjects at an advanced level and I know where students typically get lost.
Individual and small group sessions available. Online (worldwide) in French, Arabic, or English.

As a teaching professional, I have always enjoyed sharing my knowledge. My goal is to provide quality education. I am aware that some topics may seem complex, but often this is simply the result of an inadequate explanation by the teacher. With me, you will discover a real interest in the material!

We strive together to achieve academic excellence, overcoming the shortcomings and difficulties encountered by your child. Studies will become a pleasant experience for him. In addition to the courses, I can also help with school orientation, identifying their preferences and highlighting the advantages and benefits of a fulfilling educational ambition.

The sessions generally take place according to the following stages:

1️⃣ The first sessions are devoted to the assessment of the student's level in order to detect existing gaps.

2️⃣ Next, we create a personalized plan to address these gaps, including the number of hours of work needed, specific areas to focus on, and appropriate training and development exercises.

3️⃣ We stay in constant contact with the student's class teacher, to keep up to date with the latest requirements and ensure a consistent approach.

4️⃣ Subsequently, I provide exams similar to those that are likely to be asked in class, to prepare the student effectively.

5️⃣ Upon request, I write a regular report, usually monthly, to keep parents informed of their child's progress throughout their course.

I adapt my methodology according to the specific needs of each student, thus offering them a personalized and adapted work approach.

In addition, I offer crash courses for students preparing for the start of the school year, allowing them to start the year well prepared, with a solid lead on the school curriculum.

If you have any questions, do not hesitate to contact me. I will be happy to help you.

Hello! I am Hugo, a native English-speaking mathematics teacher from the Netherlands. I completed the entire IB track myself and understand the challenges students may face when mathematics feels difficult or overwhelming. Additionally, I have taken programs in finance and AI algorithms, which has further strengthened my analytical thinking skills.

I was once a student myself who hated math, until I found the right support. That is why I know how important patient and encouraging teaching can be. I teach in a calm, supportive, and practical way. My goal is not only to help students with their homework, but also to help them understand what they are doing, build their self-confidence, and prevent math from becoming something they hate.

In a typical lesson, I first identify where a student is getting stuck. Then, we work through the topic step by step with clear explanations and guided exercises. I also help students recognize common mistakes, improve their accuracy, and gain more confidence with the questions they find most difficult.

I really enjoy helping young people understand difficult subjects and be more positive about their progress. My lessons are particularly suitable for younger students, especially those in English-speaking or international educational institutions, who need support with understanding, building self-confidence, and making steady progress in mathematics.

This course is aimed at students who need support in mathematics. The goal is to clearly explain fundamental mathematical concepts and systematically close knowledge gaps.

During the lessons, I adapt to each learner’s individual level and needs. Complex topics are explained step by step to ensure they are easy to understand. I place strong emphasis on ensuring that students not only understand the solutions, but are also able to apply the methods independently.

The course is suitable both for improving grades and for targeted preparation for tests and exams. Additionally, I focus on strengthening students’ confidence in dealing with mathematics and teaching a structured approach to problem-solving.
