With over 18 years of experience, I offer private lessons in Mathematics, Analysis, Matrices, Statistics, Algebra, Geometry, Physics, Chemistry, Biology, and Geology to students following the French curriculum (Terminales, Baccalaureate, 1ère, Seconde, Brevet) or international or European (in English) programs, as well as competitive entrance exams and preparatory classes for medical or scientific universities, or first-year university students. Lessons can be given at home or online via a virtual classroom method using a shared interactive whiteboard link and Zoom or WhatsApp for communication (a very modern and effective method). All results are recorded through this method. Alternatively, I can offer face-to-face lessons (depending on the circumstances).
For more information, do not hesitate to contact me, guaranteed response in a few minutes up to 10 hours maximum.

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.

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.

My name is Marc, and I have a degree in biomedicine and a master's in neuroscience. I offer private biology tutoring for first- and second-year high school students and first-year biomedical students. The tutoring focuses on reinforcing the subject matter and preparing for important exams. The classes are designed to help students understand key biology concepts clearly and practically, avoiding rote memorization and fostering scientific reasoning.

I use structured explanations, diagrams, exercises, and exam-style questions to ensure students truly understand the topics covered in the syllabus (genetics, cell biology, metabolism, evolution, etc.). Furthermore, I adapt the pace of the classes to each student's needs, reinforcing the most difficult points and addressing specific questions.

I also prepare specifically for the Selectividad / EBAU, working with real exam models, techniques to answer questions correctly and strategies to optimize time during the test.
