My classes are designed to help students with their homework, to help them prepare for a test by providing them with additional exercises to best guarantee their success.

I remain very attentive to my students by trying to give them all my help so that they can progress while keeping a good pace of work.

Experienced and pedagogue, I have been giving private lessons for about 10 years. I am also a mathematics teacher, having completed a professional retraining in this field.
I gave private lessons in international establishments such as the Collège du Léman (Versoix).
I have extensive experience in scientific programs preparing for the French scientific baccalaureate, maturity or the international baccalaureate.
I also ensure the follow-up of post-baccalaureate students (first year of university, BTS, etc.).

I adapt to the needs and functioning of each student, as well as to their learning pace.

I emphasize method, helping to clarify and memorize concepts (developing mental strategies), structuring knowledge and developing deductive reasoning. I approach my classes with patience and kindness, with the aim of meeting the specific needs of each student, helping them achieve their goals and making them appreciate mathematics, where appropriate. I am a dynamic and passionate person.

I also give many online courses, especially for students preparing for the baccalaureate and maturity, as well as for adults in training with specific requests.

Do not hesitate to contact me. THANKS.

The math, physics, chemistry, and SVT courses of the Swiss maturity program and gymnasium or French programs are done by either in-depth explanations or by a quick course and summary of essential needs according to the case of each student supported by exercises from the book or evaluations and exams from other high schools.
Special program for Matura and Terminales.
As well as for (students in international and European Schools in English, they can have support in Math, Physics, Chemistry and Biology).
For the start of the academic year in Switzerland, support courses for EPSU and ECUS exams.
For the first university year, support courses in Mathematics - Analysis - Matrices - Statistics - Algebra - Geometry - Physics - Mechanics - Electricity - Chemistry - Organic Chemistry - Biology, Geology.
My experience is too long and for years I have learned methods for each case and for each student to fill in their gaps with the best results of Excellent, Very Good, and Good as mentioned by my students.
I can also help students to better prepare for courses and support them to better prepare for the duties of CNED in science subjects.
Guaranteed response within minutes up to 10 hours maximum.

If you have difficulties in German and/or English at primary, secondary, gymnasium or apprenticeship level, I can help you consolidate the basics, fill gaps and improve your language level. I obtained my Bachelor's degree in English and German at the University of Lausanne and am currently doing a Master's degree in English and German. I obtained my bilingual baccalaureate in German and I completed a long stay for English (level C2) in Dublin and a one-year university exchange for German in Berlin. (Level C2) I am happy to help you!

I offer courses adapted to all levels, whether in college, high school or bachelor's degree. My classes include homework help, exam preparation and in-depth exercises. As a former student who asked a lot of questions himself, I encourage my students to ask as many questions as possible in order to dissipate all gray areas and leave no detail to chance, thus promoting exam success. .
I firmly believe that academic success does not depend on an innate aptitude, but rather on the ability to identify weak points and work on them. As a teacher, I am attentive to these weak points by regularly asking the student questions about the meaning of the exercises and each step of the calculation. I also push my students to develop their intuition so that they can easily adapt to any problem on exam day.

👨‍🎓 With 5 years of experience in distance learning, I am a mathematics teacher, specializing in support courses and private lessons.
I also teach physics and chemistry as well as science subjects in general.

I hold a Master's degree in Operations Research (Applied Mathematics) and I have been teaching private lessons for over 5 years, mainly mathematics for middle and high school levels.

✏ I have taught students from public, private, French Program (Mission), Belgian, Swiss, Spanish Program (students from the Spanish school who are French or English speaking), American Program...
In short, all French or English programs.

✏ I accompany students from A to Z, in all stages of their learning with a simple, new generation and effective methodology: Course explanation, course summary, deepening application exercises etc...

✏ I prepare for exams and competitions

✏ I help with homework.

✏ My students have all evolved in an extraordinary way and have all achieved their goals. 16, 17, 18, 19 out of 20.

Sessions usually take place as follows:

1️⃣ The first sessions are mainly intended to gauge the level of the student in order to highlight the shortcomings observed.

2️⃣ Then comes the establishment of a plan to fill the gaps: Number of hours of work required, The parts of the lessons to focus on, Several training and development exercises...

3️⃣ We make sure to do all of this while staying up to date with the student's class teacher.

4️⃣ I then provide exams similar to what is likely to be asked in class.

5️⃣ I draw up a report on demand, usually monthly, in order to keep parents informed about their child's level throughout the course.

I also adapt my methodology according to the needs of each student, so everyone has a personalized working method adapted to their needs!

I also do crash courses for those who are preparing for the start of the school year so that they start the year strong 💪 and know the program in advance. 🧠

💭 If you have any questions, don't hesitate to contact me ;)

Support courses for students wishing to improve or deepen their knowledge in mathematics, physics or programming, in order to succeed in their post-compulsory, university or HES studies.

Typical session structure:
- Correction and analysis of the exercises provided as a supplement, with clarification of any points that remained unclear.
- Discussion and explanation of the concepts studied during the week, in order to ensure a solid and lasting understanding.
- Step-by-step assistance in completing the mandatory exercises.

The service also includes:
- Personalized preparation based on the student's progress in their program.
- The creation of targeted additional exercises to consolidate key concepts and promote effective progress.

To ensure optimal support, students are encouraged to communicate outside of class hours (via messages or video conferencing) to ask questions, share their difficulties, and indicate the concepts they wish to explore further in the following session.

My lessons are personalized and adapted to each student's goals, level, and pace. I place great importance on communication, trust, and motivation to create a positive and effective learning environment.

--> Teaching techniques and methods:

With over 20 years of experience teaching languages, I offer structured, supportive courses tailored to each student. My goal is to help students progress with confidence and consistency.

I use a communicative approach, which emphasizes oral and written language practice. Depending on the needs, we work on conversation, grammar, pronunciation, and listening and reading comprehension.

--> Typical course structure:

A lesson typically begins with a quick review, followed by activities tailored to the student's objectives (conversation, exercises, reading or listening comprehension). I also offer a variety of learning materials to make lessons dynamic and effective.

I offer math tutoring, specializing in algebra and algorithms, and I teach a general level of math prior to university studies. My lessons complement school courses. A typical lesson is structured as follows: we review material covered in class, focusing on concepts the student finds challenging. Then, we work through exercises and homework assignments. If the student is particularly motivated, we may include additional exercises in mathematical logic (short math puzzles, theorem proofs, etc.).

English in Secondary I/II is often the time when students must move from basic vocabulary to a true mastery of grammar and expression. It is also the time when some begin to fall behind, due to a lack of regular practice outside of school.
I offer private English lessons for Secondary I students, level A2 to B1. We work on grammar (verb tenses, structures, prepositions), thematic vocabulary, written expression (compositions, emails) and oral expression (conversation, pronunciation, listening comprehension).
I have a B2 level in English and I use it regularly. Lessons can be structured around the student's textbook, or take the form of freer conversation practice for students who need to gain fluency.
My approach is practical: fewer rules to memorize, more real-life situations. Language is learned by practicing it, and it's through making mistakes that we progress. I adapt to each student's level and pace.
