Primary Tutoring - Maths, Reading Creative Writing, Entrance Exam Preparation.
I am a fully qualified primary school teacher based in Falkirk with over 15 years of experience particularly in the upper primary level. If your child needs additional input in English or Maths to help them reinforce their classroom learning or if they are looking to extend themselves to work at Third Level in preparation for High School or Entrance Exams, then I am here to help. After our initial ‘get to know you’ session, I will build a program of learning that will support your child in all identified areas, helping them to feel more confident with concepts or skills they have found tricky to master as well as challenge them to reach their full potential moving towards higher level learning. My goal is to create supportive and engaging session where students feel motivated to explore, make mistakes in a safe environment and ultimately, experience success, helping to boost their confidence in any classroom or examination setting. Mathematics is often seen as a problem area for many students and their ‘tricky’ subject. With every student that identifies this as an area for development, my focus is on building a strong foundation in maths reinforcing key concepts, using key problem-solving strategies as well as developing critical thinking skills. Through the use of real-world, tangible examples, I will help students develop a deeper understanding of mathematical concepts and how they can be applied in their own lives. This work will be followed up with targeted areas for further practice, consolidation and/or additional challenge. During my writing sessions, I will guide students in developing their practical writing skills, i.e. grammar, sentence structure, punctuation, and organisation of points/plot. Whilst encouraging creativity throughout, I will ensure there are multiple opportunities for students to express themselves through various writing genres. We will also work on editing and reviewing with feedback sessions built in to help consolidate the techniques introduced. I strongly believe that reading is the key to unlocking a whole world of knowledge and imagination. In my reading sessions, I will focus on developing essential skills such as phonics, fluency, comprehension, and vocab. Through a variety of activities, including reading aloud, guided reading, discussion and analysis, I will help students improve their reading abilities, expand their literary horizons, and hopefully, foster a lifelong love for books. I look forward to working with you.

Guidance in (scientific) writing and communication.
Like no other, I know how difficult it can be to structure a research or project in a short time. You want to distinguish main issues from side issues and be in the final report to-the-point in communicating the results. From MBO level 2 I went on to a doctorate in astrophysics at the University of Amsterdam. During this path, I have written hundreds of reports, published 6 scientific articles and presented my findings hundreds of times both informally and formally. In addition, I have been a successful thesis supervisor of 3 bachelor students and 1 master's student. My most important contributions, especially (popular)-scientific, can be found on my LinkedIn page at the bottom. I would like to help you get the best out of yourself with the help of my knowledge and experience. However, I do not want to do this with a leadership mentality, but from an advisory mentality in which we can put together as equals a nice end product that we both support. I can offer concrete support for your research/project in: - Setup and planning - Doing literature study - Quality assurance - Presentation and structure/content - Popularizing the topics with catchy texts - Review with a critical look - Give layout and design input - And much more Do you think I can help you or do you want to know more? I would love to hear from you!

ALL ABOUT STORIES: Storytelling, Fiction and Worldbuilding
Storytelling is a powerful tool for self-discovery, passing down wisdom... and it's also fun. We all appreciate stories for different reasons that vary in philosophical and emotional depths. In this class I'd do my best to explain what a story is, what characters, themes and messages are. I will also teach you the relationships between them and how to make your own unique characters, worlds and stories. This class is for beginner writers and narrative designers.

✅ COPYWRITER, ADVERTISING WRITER, DESIGNER-EDITOR: ENHANCE YOUR CONTENT TO OFFER IT BETTER
Copywriting is the art of selling with words. In short, it's written marketing. Concretely, a copywriter (or copywriter) writes content tailored for the sale of a product or service. And precisely, it is either: - to offer you concrete techniques, a clear methodology and pragmatic tools to learn how to write quality content yourself for your own needs - or to help you directly to promote the content of your product and design a text, a letter, a hook, a slogan, write marketing files, press releases, an internet page, blog posts, advertising banners and newsletters (...) in an impactful and optimal way. Choose the appropriate terms and format them in order to convey an idea, a message, in the most relevant, effective and persuasive way possible. So, how can you write writing highlighting a brand, a product, a person or simply a company... in order to promote it and gain visibility? This is why, to help you on the one hand, to create strong, attractive and synthetic messages but also on the other hand, to teach you to do it for yourself, it will be a question of precisely understanding your needs, your product, your strategy, the values you wish to convey (...). Objective: to be creative enough to capture the attention of your audience and make readers want it. With reusable writing, making your communication profitable, increasing your notoriety and achieving your objectives (...) allows you to make a lasting impression over time. Because always keep in mind that the writing remains. Develop your visual approach, compare the coherence of the text with the guideline but also the coherence of the idea with the graphic concept: it is also a question of assuming the tasks of coordination. If you also wish to train yourself to write other content yourself, the training can include deepening your writing skills to give personality to your texts, developing ideas, concepts and their implementation, creativity/presentation techniques... all anchored in practical exercises and scenarios. ➤ THE COPYWRITER TRAINER Trained at the Grande Ecole post-European preparatory classes & Ivy League University in the United States, our teacher has specialized and worked for more than 17 years, in Europe and North America, in the field. On the one hand as a copywriter then as director of communication / advertising agencies. On the other hand, as a trainer in this field in renowned public and private international establishments, speaking in forums and conferences. ➤ PLACE, TIMETABLE, PRICES ✓ Locations: Geneva-Lausanne-Fribourg-Zurich-Neuchâtel-Lugano-Montreux-Basel-Neuchâtel-Bern-Lucerne-Brussels-Luxembourg-Paris-Lyon. But currently, these sessions continue to be offered by videoconference in the current context and in accordance with general demand which is almost unanimous on this subject. ✓ Indeed, apart from the classic advantages of videoconferencing (time saving related to travel & their unforeseen events, eco-responsibility, increased schedule flexibility, etc.), the quality of the session & the interaction remain identical. In addition, the entire exchange, notes and recommendations are immediately transcribed on the dedicated chat. ✓ To support us among ourselves & to be pleasant to you in this sustainable / particular period and in a spirit of solidarity, the fees are temporarily reduced and will not increase after the start of our sessions. The rate offered is not a corporate rate and does not allow the delivery of invoices to companies that request it. ✓ Languages: French/English. ✓ The progress following these private sessions is perceptible from 1 to 2 sessions (*2024 study). ✓ As other people do regularly, you can also please your loved ones by offering gift vouchers available all year round.

Situational Systemic Action Theory (SSAT) for Basics on Probability
The course is centered on Systems Theory and Elinor Ostrom's Situational Action Theory. The purpose is to inform pupils of the work of Niklas Luhmann, the XX-century German sociologist of law, who has written a new perspective on relationships among social actors and the surrounding environment. The course is furthered through the brilliant asset constituted by Ostrom's theory, demonstrating that everyday life and RWG (real-world games) have the chance to show reality as they are interwoven with cognition and behavioral decision-making. We will explore the fundamentals of probability laws together, with a cut on unprepared responses to unexpected events.
