Présentation

After graduating from Portland State University (Portland, OR, USA) with a Bachelor's degree in Applied Mathematics in March of 2018 I will now be working on an M.Sc. in Ecology.

I have experience both with private tutoring and with teaching large groups of students. For the last three years I have taught and tutored everything from introductory secondary school mathematics to University level calculus and Ordinary Differential Equations.

Being an older graduate student myself, my approach to teaching is unique and I often find ways of communicating well with student's that don't necessarily enjoy doing mathematics or science.

I can make Math, Physics and the rest of science fun again! Not to mention I am open to working with students regarding English (and the speaking or writing or English).

BSc in Applied Mathematics - Portland State University - 2018
GPA: 3.30 - Courses include but aren't limited to: Calculus series, ODE's, PDE's, Linear Algebra, Fluid Dynamics, General Physics, Thermodynamics & General Chemistry

Mathematics, Physics & Science tutoring for everyone!

68.24 C$ /h

I graduated from Portland State University with a Bachelor's degree in Applied Mathematics before coming to KU Leuven to work on my Master's Degree (and eventually PhD) in Astronomy.

I have tutored and taught mathematics up through ordinary differential equations but also at younger levels (like secondary or high school level mathematics). I've been tutoring/teaching for almost 3 years now and have worked with clients ranging from the University level to early secondary school work.

I have a unique approach to mathematics and physics that allows me to work well with students who don't necessarily find mathematics and science enjoyable. My goal is to show everyone that mathematics and physics is doable for all!

*Unfortunately I do not yet speak Dutch well enough to tutor thus I only tutor in English*

English tutoring and instruction (writing, reading & speaking)

58.25 C$ /h

I was born and raised in the USA which means my native tongue is American English. I was a professional writer/blogger for 5 years in addition to currently being a graduate student in a natural science so my technical writing and grammar skills are well polished. I can assist in all sorts of areas - speaking, writing, reading, proofreading etc.

Overcome your fears and unlock creative inspiration to finally get to the end of your writing project.

Let yourself be guided and finally realize your dream of writing.

➤ Overcome your fears.
➤ Discover the secret to writing 100% fun and 0% blank pages.
➤ Awaken this writer's flame that has been dormant in you for a long time.
➤ Build unwavering legitimacy and overcome the fear of failure, lack of time and procrastination that keep you from moving forward.

In short, put an end to the fear of writing! Isn't it difficult to be consumed by the desire to write your project and not succeed in doing it? Break forever the insurmountable wall that prevents you from writing today.

It is a matter of combining improvements in form with improvements in substance. For this, the sessions can for example take place according to your needs as follows:
a) Comments / proposals on the text that you will offer me b) Writing exercises based on a statement.
c) A series of precise and pragmatic recommendations and their application through style exercises.

Whether it is a novel, an essay, song lyrics, various texts, a biography or simply a report for professional or school purposes, it is about offering you elements personalized pedagogy:

- Study your text
- Build text, song lyrics etc
- Calmly polish the style
- Research and develop your lexical fields
- Differentiate between writing for oneself and writing for others

All this by combining theory and practice: Writing work from exercises then as part of a personal project.

During the sessions, you are guided in your writing project. The trainer accompanies you and teaches you the preparation method, gives you writing tools and helps you work on your style and your imagination.

The objective is multiple, including a reflection on one's own literary path, an introduction to the basic tools of style work and exercises on description.

Learning objectives:
- Identify your writing path.
- Mobilize your imagination.
- Learn and master the practical writing tools.
- Broaden its reflection on creation and professional and personal writing.
- Create and develop one or more projects.

Trained in a European Grande Ecole & Ivy League University in the United States, specialized and has been working in Europe and North America for more than 16 years in this field, in reputable international institutions , also intervening in forums and conferences.

- Locations: Geneva - Lausanne - Friborg - Neuchâtel - Montreux - Basel - Sion - Sierre - Morges - Bienne. But currently and until further notice, only by videoconference in accordance with national recommendations on Covid.

These sessions, for which you have asked me, also seem to be perfectly unanimous since they arouse a certain enthusiasm (and a certain enthusiasm). Indeed, they have the advantage of face-to-face sessions (ex: quality of the interaction), without its disadvantages (ex: loss of travel time) with additional advantages (ex: the entire session transcribed in writing on the chat). That is why, at your request, I continue to offer this option.

À la carte: evaluated and adapted to each personality.

I am an associate teacher and I offer private tutoring lessons in French, at secondary level, at lower and higher levels. In particular, I master the preparation methods for the French baccalaureate.

Passionate about literature and languages in general, I taught French for four years. I have worked in the Belgian public and private school systems as well as in a prestigious private French high school (MLF - OSUI). Of a tolerant and open nature, I teach with respect for the plurality of opinions and the diversity of approaches. My successive experiences in secondary education, in Belgium then in Morocco, have taught me enormously about the need to adapt my teaching strategies to varied audiences, taking into account the particularities of each one.

So, whether it is a question of strengthening certain bases or additional support aimed at approaching the subject in another, more transversal way, in order to overcome certain obstacles, do not hesitate to contact me to find the formula that would suit you!

Je donne des cours d'aide à la rédaction de textes tels que des dissertations, des résumés, des synthèses et d'autres travaux écrits (travaux académiques, mémoire, éventuellement CV et lettre de motivation...). Je donne également des cours de français pour s'améliorer dans cette langue en cas de difficultés ou lorsqu'il ne s'agit pas de sa langue maternelle. Je peux ainsi aider en orthographe, en grammaire, à mieux s'exprimer oralement ou par écrit. Je ne donne pas cours de français langue étrangère au niveau débutant. J'adapte le cours en fonction de la demande de la personne. J'aide également à préparer les examens de français du Jury central.

Hello! I'm a native speaker with 10 years of experience in teaching English as a Second Language and Business English. I also offer proof-reading of essays, dissertations and business documents.

My speciality is particularly with Europeans who are attempting to improve their level for commercial, educational or career reasons.

A little about me: I'm Irish and recently moved back to Brussels - with my partner Filipa from Dublin and we are based in Uccle.

I'm looking forward to meeting new students and can meet either in person in Brussels e.g. at ULB (University Libre de Bruxelles), or in the comfort of your home - to be discussed. As a backup online through Zoom, but much prefer in-person, as it achieves better results.

Thanks and hope to hear from you soon. Kevin

Study of the French language, informal language, formal language and, if desired, professional correspondence, spoken and written, and of course, understanding.

Online is possible if required by distance.

Do you need to improve your English so that you can participate fluently and confidently in business meetings, presentations, webinars, telephone conversations or interviews? You may be aiming for a job in the EU institutions or other organisations in Brussels. Or you could be working in an international company or studying for a Masters or another qualification...

I have been a qualified, professional English teacher and translator for more than 20 years. My courses enable learners to actively produce the language, repeat useful expressions until they are habitual and correct mistakes until they are removed. Although I am happy to explain and practice grammatical issues, the focus is on effective, correct and appropriate communication by using visual material, videos, interesting topics for discussion and challenging quizzes. As I have advanced knowledge of French, German and Czech, I can particularly appreciate and correct the issues speakers of these languages have in English, but this is also the case for Dutch speakers.

There is also the possibility of specialist English courses in the areas linked to my experience (see below): how the EU works; environmental, energy, regional or agricultural policies; economics.

- Advisor in EU policies and funding for 12 years (regional policy, economic development)
- Director of a regional representation to the EU and member of a management team
- Certificate in TESOL with business
- BA(Honours) in Modern Languages & Modern History, Oxford University
- Post-graduate in Economics, London University
