My name is Jonathan. I am a young teacher with already 15 years of experience in the field of academic support for primary and secondary school children up to rhetoric.

I also provide individual monitoring for your work method, more particularly in terms of understanding the instructions and the work schedule. If you need a helping hand, I'm here to listen.

I am a qualified and experienced mathematics tutor. Graduated from the Free University of Brussels in 2011, I started my career by teaching remedial courses in different schools in Brussels. I then specialized in individual academic support by following educational training at the Harvard Graduate School of Education. I have been giving private mathematics lessons daily for over ten years.

The students who follow my private lessons benefit from personalized support. The first session is devoted to an in-depth assessment of the student's mathematical knowledge. The objective is to detect its weak points and understand their origin in order to adapt my courses to its needs. I develop a tailor-made remediation program for each of my students aimed at filling each of their gaps. Over the course of the sessions, the student builds a solid foundation for learning and regains self-confidence. At the same time, I help him acquire a work methodology that allows him to gradually become autonomous in his studies.

I have a thorough knowledge of the mathematics curriculum for middle and high school (from 6th to 12th grade). I am also qualified to support students in preparing for international exams such as the SAT, the OMPT, and the International Baccalaureate (IB) in all its variations: Analysis and Approaches (AA SL/HL) and Applications and Interpretation (AI SL/HL).

Throughout my years of training, I studied and developed numerous techniques that facilitate learning mathematics. The strength of my teaching approach lies in my ability to explain, in simple terms, anything a student finds complicated. I am passionate about this profession because it offers me the opportunity to guide struggling students toward success. It is a true pleasure to see them progress and rediscover their connection with the fascinating world of mathematics.

I offer private tutoring in Paris (at the student's home) or remotely (online). My online lessons take place on an interactive whiteboard. This whiteboard is specifically designed to facilitate student/teacher interaction online. Thanks to this teaching tool, my online lessons are just as effective as in-person lessons. The student only needs an internet connection and a computer, tablet, or smartphone to participate.

Prepare for top-university STEM interviews with personalised, high-level practice in mathematical, scientific, and technical problem-solving.

I have been preparing students for competitive university applications and interviews for more than 12 years, with many successful students reaching their desired universities, including Oxford, Cambridge, Imperial, Ivy League institutions, and other highly selective STEM programmes.

These lessons are designed for students applying to Oxford, Cambridge, Imperial, UCL, Warwick, Ivy League universities, and other competitive institutions, especially for courses such as Maths, Physics, Engineering, Natural Sciences, Computer Science, and related STEM subjects.

Top-university interviews are not just about knowing the syllabus. They test how you think, how you respond when a problem becomes unfamiliar, how clearly you explain your reasoning, and how well you recover when you get stuck.

In these sessions, we work on:

- Oxford and Cambridge interview preparation
- Imperial, Ivy League, UCL, Warwick, and other competitive STEM applications
- Maths, Physics, Engineering, Natural Sciences, Computer Science, and related courses
- Technical problem-solving under pressure
- Mechanics, calculus, vectors, graphs, estimation, logic, algorithms, and modelling questions
- Mock interviews with live questioning and detailed feedback
- Thinking aloud, structuring explanations, and communicating assumptions clearly
- Personal statement discussion and follow-up questions
- Admissions-test-style problem solving where relevant
- Interview confidence, strategy, and recovery when stuck

Each session is tailored to the student’s target course, university, and current level. Lessons can include live mock interview practice, targeted technical questions, feedback on communication, and follow-up exercises between sessions.

My approach is rigorous, structured, and supportive. The aim is not only to practise questions, but to build the habits needed for high-pressure academic interviews: clear reasoning, flexible problem-solving, and calm confidence.

As an experienced and passionate teacher, I put my expertise at the service of your learning to offer you a tailor-made, stimulating and rigorous language journey.

Since each learner has their own objectives, pace and interests, I fully adapt my content to your profile, level and specific needs (professional, academic or personal).

At the heart of my teaching approach:

Attentive and caring listening: During conversation sessions, I pay constant attention to the smallest details of your expression. This allows me to identify your hesitations, adjust your grammar, enrich your vocabulary, and refine your pronunciation in real time, without ever interrupting your flow.

100% authentic materials: To immerse you in the reality of the language as it is truly spoken and written, I incorporate press articles, podcasts, video excerpts and documents from everyday life.

A dynamic and playful approach: I regularly use educational games and interactive activities. Learning through play helps to unlock speaking skills, to more easily solidify complex concepts, and to ensure learning that is both effective and enjoyable.

My goal is to help you progress with confidence, transforming each lesson into a captivating and enriching exchange.
