I have a degree in Physics with 6 years of experience in IES. My methodology is quite good given that last year, nobody failed and those who took the Selectividad, got the necessary grade for their studies.
In the case of students who wish to access FP, I have made a summary of all the entrance exams. It was one of the subjects I taught at an IES.
The time available for each student may vary slightly depending on where the student lives, because I don't mind traveling, but I have my work commitments. Even if I can't show up on Saturday to Sunday nights, I could do it online in the early hours of that night.

TRANSFORMING LEANERS INTO TOP ACHIEVERS— FROM PRIMARY TO IB

Welcome to a learning experience designed to inspire confidence, mastery, and academic excellence across Mathematics, Science, Physics, Chemistry, and Biology. Whether your child is building foundational understanding in primary school, preparing for the challenges of IGCSE/MYP, or tackling the rigor of A Level and IB (HL & SL), my classes are structured to deliver real, measurable progress.


WHY LEARN WITH ME?

I bring over 10 years of professional tutoring experience** backed by a strong academic foundation. Having graduated with honors from both the Faculty of Science and the Faculty of Medicine, and further trained in advanced mathematical and scientific pedagogy at top institutions like MIT, I have developed a teaching approach that blends expertise, empathy, and innovation.

BUT MY PASSION FOR TEACHING COMES FROM A DEPPER PLACE.

As someone who once struggled with dyslexia and ADHD, finishing at the bottom of the class, I personally understand the frustrations many learners face. With the guidance of a mentor, I transformed my academic life—rising to the top 1% worldwide in SATs and earning placements at prestigious universities.
This journey fuels my mission: to help every student unlock their potential, no matter where they begin.


WHAT I OFFER

My classes are designed for both students who need patient, structured support and high achievers seeking challenge and enrichment.

Subjects Covered (All International Curricula)

Mathematics – Primary | Secondary | IGCSE | GCSE | A Level | IB AA/AI (SL & HL)
Science– Primary | Lower Secondary | MYP
Physics – IGCSE | A Level | IB (SL & HL)
Chemistry – IGCSE | A Level | IB (SL & HL)
Biology – IGCSE | A Level | IB (SL & HL)

TEACHING APPROACH

* Personalized, one-on-one sessions tailored to each learner’s pace and strengths
* Use of diagrams, real-life examples, and problem-based learning
* Emphasis on conceptual understanding and exam strategy
* Step-by-step explanations for every problem
* Confidence-building techniques for anxious or struggling learners
* Support with homework, revision, coursework, and past papers


FOR PARENTS

Your child will be learning in a supportive, structured environment designed to strengthen skills, fill gaps from earlier years, and rebuild confidence.
You can expect:

* Steady performance improvement
* Clear progress tracking
* Regular feedback
* A tutor who treats your child’s success as a shared mission

FOR STUDENTS

You deserve a teacher who understands you.
You deserve lessons that make difficult concepts finally make sense.
You deserve a guide who will help you go from confused to confident—and even exceptional.
I’m here to help you build the skills, habits, and mindset that top-performing students rely on.

SEE WHAT OTHER PARENTS AND STUDENTS SAY

I always encourage new clients to read my reviews as they reflect the real results, growth, and transformations that students experience in my sessions. Your trust matters and my past students’ success stories say more than I ever could.


LET'S BEGIN THE JOURNEY TOGETHER

Whether you’re looking to catch up, keep up, or excel, I’m here to help you achieve your goals with patience, passion, and proven techniques.

Your child’s success is possible—let’s unlock it together.

I am a qualified engineer from Arts et Métiers ParisTech and followed a preparatory class, accumulating more than 10 years of experience as a private mathematics teacher. My goal is to help your child reach their full academic potential in mathematics and develop skills that will prepare them for a bright future.

Why choose my courses?

Would you like your child to:

Significantly improve your results in mathematics/physics-chemistry?
Join a selective curriculum?
Become independent and confident in your abilities?
Over the last 5 years, I have had the privilege of supporting more than 30 French students, from middle school (sixth, fifth, fourth, third) to high school (second, first, terminale), towards academic success. My students obtained good averages, passed the certificate, the baccalaureate and the preparatory classes, while strengthening their self-confidence.

My teaching method in 3 steps:

Short term: Immediate improvement in average by assimilating the course and preparing for assessments. This includes assimilating the course, taking notes, practicing standard exercises, anticipating teachers' expectations and test questions, as well as acquiring writing methods.

Medium term: Integration of reasoning and working methods. Your child will learn to work regularly in this order: assimilation, training exercises, preparation for assessments and analysis of results.

Long term: Establishing clear goals, building the steps to achieve them, realizing the SIMPLICITY of mathematics, building confidence in your abilities and unlocking your child's potential.

Details of the formula:

One to two sessions of 1h30/2h per week to assimilate the course and prepare for the evaluations.
Classes delivered via Google Meet for effective online learning.
Use of a virtual whiteboard to facilitate the assimilation of concepts.
Access to an online library including 10 mathematics reference books.
Over 1000 online exercises to strengthen math skills.
Questions ?

Contact me now on Apprentus, and I will respond quickly. Together, we can give your child the future they deserve through an exceptional math education.

Don't let this opportunity pass you by! Book today for outstanding results in mathematics.

I give private lessons in lambada-oriental dance which is a mix of lambada (dance of Brazilian origin) and oriental dance (Egyptian dance).
These are the 2 most sensual dances among the existing dances.

The goal is to allow women to reconnect with their bodies, to regain self-confidence, to rediscover their feminine power.

Dance is an incredible tool for this. Performing steps to music allows us to forget for a moment what we are "missing" and focus on what brings us well-being.
By letting go we obtain magic!

This is how I work:
- learning basic steps
- learning typical technical movements
- learning movements that highlight femininity.
- put into practice in a choreography

I give either private lessons at home or group lessons at the beach. I adapt to demand

A course to learn and reinforce the topics covered in class. I have a C1 level in English and experience teaching. I adapt to the student without any problem. I'm a university student majoring in pharmacy, so I'm particularly good at chemistry, but I'm familiar with all types of secondary school and science baccalaureate subjects. The course would begin by assessing the student's level and building on what's been taught in their classes.

Learning math and chemistry. Two important subjects in the sciences. They are dense and sometimes complicated subjects, but it all depends on how they are explained and understood. That's why in my classes I try to make the class dynamic, adapting to the students' needs to try to achieve their maximum potential in the subject.
