As a teaching professional, I have always enjoyed sharing my knowledge. My goal is to provide quality education. I am aware that some topics may seem complex, but often this is simply the result of an inadequate explanation by the teacher. With me, you will discover a real interest in the material!

We strive together to achieve academic excellence, overcoming the shortcomings and difficulties encountered by your child. Studies will become a pleasant experience for him. In addition to the courses, I can also help with school orientation, identifying their preferences and highlighting the advantages and benefits of a fulfilling educational ambition.

The sessions generally take place according to the following stages:

1️⃣ The first sessions are devoted to the assessment of the student's level in order to detect existing gaps.

2️⃣ Next, we create a personalized plan to address these gaps, including the number of hours of work needed, specific areas to focus on, and appropriate training and development exercises.

3️⃣ We stay in constant contact with the student's class teacher, to keep up to date with the latest requirements and ensure a consistent approach.

4️⃣ Subsequently, I provide exams similar to those that are likely to be asked in class, to prepare the student effectively.

5️⃣ Upon request, I write a regular report, usually monthly, to keep parents informed of their child's progress throughout their course.

I adapt my methodology according to the specific needs of each student, thus offering them a personalized and adapted work approach.

An exam is coming up and your child doesn't know where to start? Is the Baccalaureate or Brevet exam approaching and they lack method or confidence?
He knows the material but loses his composure when faced with an exercise?
He makes repetitive mistakes despite his revisions?
He doesn't know how to organize his revision?
There isn't enough time to review all the chapters?
Or does he simply want to prepare himself seriously to achieve better results?
I can help him organize his work, target his difficulties and train effectively.
I am a mathematics teacher with 15 years of teaching experience and hold a Master's degree in mathematics. I tutor middle and high school students, particularly in the French and Moroccan curricula.
🎯 Preparation tailored to the student's objective
Good preparation is not just about doing a lot of exercises.
First, we need to identify:
• concepts that are not mastered;
• errors that recur regularly;
• methods that the student does not yet know how to use;
• the priority chapters;
• the actual level of preparation.
Next, we implement a targeted and progressive approach.
📝 Preparation for tests and exams
Depending on the level and objective, we can work on:
• review of essential concepts;
• classic exercises and more complex exercises;
• the exam topics;
• problems requiring multiple steps of reasoning;
• the problem-solving methodology;
• drafting the solutions;
• time management;
• the analysis and correction of errors;
• the strategies to use when faced with different types of exercises.
For the Brevet or the Baccalaureate, we can also work from past exam papers to gradually familiarize the student with the exam format.
🔎 A method based on errors
An error is not simply something to be corrected.
It allows us to understand what is not yet mastered.
During the sessions, we therefore analyze the errors to determine their origin, then we repeat the method until the student is able to solve a similar exercise independently.
Understand → Practice → Identify errors → Correct → Repeat → Master
💻 Interactive online courses
The classes are held remotely using Google Meet and an interactive whiteboard.
The student works directly with me during the session. It's not simply a matter of looking at a solution: they must search, explain their reasoning and participate actively.
I can also send him screenshots of the work done during the session to facilitate revisions.
🏆 15 years of experience
I have worked with many students of varying levels and difficulties.
For my final year students who were tutored in mathematics, I achieved a 100% success rate in the Baccalaureate, with 75% obtaining a distinction of "Bien" or "Très Bien".
This experience allows me to adapt the work to the available time and the actual level of the student, especially when an exam is approaching.
👨‍🎓 For which students?
• College
• High school
• Second
• First
• Final year
• Preparation for the Brevet exam
• Preparation for the Baccalaureate
• Preparation for inspections
• Students needing a refresher course before an exam
The French and Moroccan programs are taken into account.
📩 An exam is coming up?
In your message, please tell me:
• the student's level;
• the type of examination or test;
• the date;
• the relevant chapters;
• the main difficulties encountered.
This will allow me to determine priorities and propose work that is adapted to the time available.
The goal is to prepare the student effectively, to correct their priority difficulties and to enable them to approach their exam with more method and confidence.

💻 Videoconference courses, from the orientation cycle to the final year of high school.

There's a phrase I hear in almost every first session: "In class I understand, but when I'm faced with the worksheet I don't know where to start."

It's not a question of academic level. It's that no one has ever taught students to recognize the type of problem they're facing. One function exercise looks like another, but the method isn't the same—and until this sorting happens automatically, each exercise starts from scratch. This sorting is what I work on first, even before reviewing the lesson.

🎓 I hold a Master's degree in Operations Research (applied mathematics) and have been tutoring mathematics for 5 years. I have worked with numerous students in the Swiss system, as well as in French, Belgian, and international programs.

📚 What I cover, canton by canton

The vocabulary varies from one canton to another, so let's be precise:

✏Geneva and Fribourg — orientation cycle (grades 9 to 11 HarmoS), preparation for entry into secondary school, then the four years of secondary school up to graduation
✏Vaud — pre-gymnasium and general tracks, preparation for the ECR exams, transition to gymnasium, then the three years of gymnasium
✏Neuchâtel — cycle 3, then high school
✏Valais — orientation cycle, then college
Preparation for the Matura exam, all specific options

🔍 How I work

1️⃣ The first sessions are mainly aimed at assessing the level of the student in order to identify the shortcomings observed.

2️⃣ Then we make a plan to fill those gaps: number of hours of work needed, parts of the lessons to focus on, lots of training and development exercises, etc.

3️⃣ We make sure to stay in regular contact with the student's class teacher to monitor their progress and align our work with what is being taught in class.

4️⃣ Then I provide exams similar to what may be offered in class.

5️⃣ Upon request, I write a monthly report to keep parents informed of their child's level throughout the course.

✨ Why this profession

My favorite moment is when a student starts explaining their approach aloud without me having asked anything. It means they're no longer trying to guess what I expect—they're thinking. The rest always follows.

🗣️ Lessons in French or English. Response within the day.
