In my private math lessons, I adopt a student-centered approach, aiming to create a supportive and effective learning environment. Here are the fundamental principles that guide my sessions:

Listening and Analysis:

I pay particular attention to listening to students in order to understand their problems and identify the specific obstacles they encounter.
A careful analysis of their difficulties makes it possible to target the areas requiring particular attention.
Adaptation of the Explanations:

The explanations are tailored to each student, using examples and topics that resonate with their interests and level of understanding.
This personalization promotes a better assimilation of mathematical concepts.
Practical Application:

Each lesson is accompanied by a practical application to give concrete meaning to the theoretical concepts.
Students are encouraged to see the relevance of mathematics in real-life situations.
Success through Simple Steps:

Complex principles are broken down into simple and manageable steps, allowing students to progress in a logical and structured way.
This method promotes understanding and reduces anxiety when faced with mathematical challenges.
Encouragement and Positivity:

I make it a point of honour to maintain a positive atmosphere, by congratulating the efforts and successes of the students.
Recognizing progress, even minimal progress, strengthens motivation and self-confidence.
Logic, Patience, and Pedagogy:

My approach is guided by logic, patience and adapted pedagogy, ensuring that each student can follow and understand at their own pace.
Results Obtained:

Grade Improvement:

For the majority of students (about ten), grades increased significantly, reaching up to 18/20.
One student in particular saw his grades go from 5/20 to scores between 14 and 15/20 in 10th and 11th grade.
This student passed his professional maturity exam and was able to follow the post-maturity program thanks to a refresher course and targeted learning.
Acquisition and Trust:

All students not only acquired mathematical concepts, but they also learned how to put them into practice.
They have regained confidence in their abilities, which is essential for their continued success in mathematics and other academic fields.
These private lessons aim to transform the experience of mathematics for each student, shifting it from a source of stress to an opportunity for success and personal growth.

About Me
Are you or your child struggling with math? Have you lost confidence in your ability to master this subject? Don't hesitate to contact me. I'm Stéphanie, passionate about math and logic, and I would be happy to help you understand and succeed in this subject.

I have already given many private lessons to children, teenagers and young adults. Their results have improved to very satisfactory levels, they have regained confidence in their abilities (math is understandable to everyone), and they have even obtained the desired diploma thanks to targeted revisions.

My method: understanding the obstacles, adapting my teaching to the student's interests, reassuring them, giving meaning to each lesson (what is the purpose of everything we learn in math?), accessing complex concepts through solid foundations and understanding by simple steps, which restores students' confidence and ensures a solid grasp of the material.
Education
ESTACA Engineer (France) in 2001
Master's degree in Mechanics (equivalent to a Master's degree) - specializing in mathematics, obtained in 1999 from the University of Paris 6
Associate's degree in Mathematics, Computer Science, and Applications to Science, obtained in 1997 from Paris 6 University
Experience / Qualifications

• Teaching methodology and techniques: I favour a personalized approach, adapting the courses according to the profile and academic background of each student.
• Typical course structure: tutoring in economics, econometrics, statistics and probability, financial mathematics, trading, investment, or political economy. Courses can take place at home, via videoconference, or at a pre-selected location, ideally quiet, free, and conducive to learning.
• Specifics as a teacher: I offer support throughout the school year, with free corrections of exercises outside of class, regular availability, and the guarantee of being accessible until the end of the year, subject to the general conditions of Superprof.
• Target audience: all levels, regardless of diploma, class or specific characteristics.
-------
The path and the method are in there; take a little bit of each.

Holding a degree in mathematics from EPFL, I offer private lessons in Geneva or online.

I graduated from EPFL with a degree in mathematics, having completed all the Bachelor's level courses in this discipline. I have gained significant experience tutoring students from middle school to university level (mathematics and physics). I have also assisted with teaching at EPFL, particularly in specialized courses such as analytic geometry (advanced mathematics course), analysis (first and second year Bachelor's level), and linear algebra (first year Bachelor's level). My in-depth mastery of the theory in these disciplines provides me with the skills and teaching abilities necessary to effectively support high school and university students, helping them understand the theoretical concepts in their courses and apply them practically in their exercises.

Typical course: a quick review (adapted to needs) of the essential concepts of the course, followed by practical exercises and oral role-playing (going to the board, discussion on the physical meaning, etc.), as in a competitive oral exam.

All my lessons are prepared in advance based on the topics covered in class (the student specifies their needs from one session to the next). I also create a handout containing sample exercises illustrating different methods, fully corrected and explained by me.

My commitment to my students' success is absolute. I only prioritize motivated students who are ready to put in the necessary effort to progress.

My main focus is on in-depth understanding and the quality of work. Depending on the student's request, I can also suggest exercises to do between sessions (not mandatory, depending on available time and homework already assigned by their school).
