About Me

My enthusiasm for teaching started at a young age. I was a curious kid who had many personal projects on the go. I even ran an after school Hogwarts program where I led potion making classes from my mum’s bathroom. I loved filling my brain with random facts and had a natural way of explaining them in ways that captured people’s attention. As I grew older, I realized that my enthusiasm for learning was contagious. To share my passion with others, I decided to become an educator.

Throughout my teaching career, I have been on a mission to transform education systems and pedagogical practices with the goal of lending students the competencies they need to survive and thrive in an ever-changing global world. I have never considered myself a ¨teacher¨ but rather a mentor. My goal as an educator has always been to inspire, to guide, to coach, to support, and to care for my students. I strive to create environments where students want to learn rather than have to learn. I want them to own their learning, to be self-directed learners who explore their talents, take risks, think for themselves, and tackle projects of their own.

After a few years as a classroom teacher, I started questioning our education system and my role in it. I loved the energy of the classroom, but I knew I had big ideas and strategies that would allow for more students to be autonomous and have opportunities to explore their curiosities than just those of my classroom.

When the opportunity presented itself, I decided to leave the classroom and become an Instructional Coach. For the last 4 years, I have been on a mission to support teachers in empowering our students to be agents of their learning. I do this by collaborating with educators to design student experiences that are inquiry-based and project based.

Within that time, I chose to uproot my life and move from Canada to Spain with the goal of taking my vision further from home. Before that, I lived in Uganda and had the pleasure of visiting local schools, gaining an understanding of the enduring legacies of inequity in education that colonialism and the Scramble for Africa have left behind. My long term goal is to assist in decolonising education systems in the global south with the objective of providing equitable access to quality education for all children.

My role was a combination of accustoming newcomers to their new country and providing English language learning services. For the last 5 years, I have worked in the field of GIfted and Talented Education. Three years ago, I left the classroom to pursue my passion for training teachers in innovative and changing pedagogical practices.

Private online mathematics lessons - Qualified and experienced teacher
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 perfect knowledge of the mathematics program of the College and the High School (from the Sixth to the Terminale). During my formative years, I studied and developed many techniques that make it easier to learn math. The strength of my pedagogical approach lies in my ability to explain in a simple way everything that the student finds complicated. I am passionate about this job because it gives me the opportunity to guide dropout students on the path to success. It is a real pleasure to see them evolve and come to terms with the fantastic world of mathematics. I provide my private lessons in Limoges (at the student's home) or remotely (online via the internet). My distance learning courses take place on an interactive online whiteboard. This board is specially designed to promote student/teacher interaction on the internet. Thanks to this educational tool, my online courses are as effective as home courses. The student only needs an internet connection and a computer, tablet, or smartphone to take advantage of it.

Hello, I am Majda, French language teacher. I have been giving private lessons online since 2018. I offer special sessions that meet your needs and objectives to successfully complete your DELF (Diplôme d'Etudes en Langue Française) or DALF (Advanced Diploma in French Language), including the TCF (French Knowledge Test). I have been supporting many interested people of different nationalities thanks to online courses since 2018; For me, helping enthusiasts to practice the French language is a very good experience because I understand that success is a capital objective in the life of ambitious people. I speak Arabic, French, Spanish, and also English. I explain my lessons in the language of your choice. And at the end of each session, I give lessons with exercises to do as homework to examine your gaps and monitor your progress. Here are some things to know about the DELF and DALF: The DELF (Diploma of Studies in French Language) and the DALF (Advanced Diploma in French Language) are two official and quality diplomas. They are harmonized on the levels of the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages. They include the following six levels, in ascending order: A1, A2, B1, B2, C1, C2. These two diplomas are suitable for all ages and all audiences. In addition, the DELF B2, and increasingly the DALF C1, allow students to enter French, European or French-speaking universities, and certain Grandes Ecoles. Will you have DELF or DALF exams to pass? Do you need to follow specific sessions with me to improve your level? Don't hesitate to book your sessions so that we can start the preparation. I am available !

PROFESSIONAL SUPPORT IN HIS JOB SEARCH / CAREER TRANSITION, ESPECIALLY DURING COVID19
Adapted to each case and need, the objective is support in accessing a job, from the search for departure to the signing of the contract: - After the search and selection of relevant advertisements, establish and illustrate your transversal skills profile then create an attractive CV and write a striking cover letter highlighting your professional background - stand out in the preparation of their interviews, from oral presentation to expression through appropriate body language. Interview simulation & video analysis filmed if necessary. - Identify your values, promote your professional project / your assets and strengths but also work on areas for improvement in order to find new momentum in your career. Note that during the videoconference session, all the notes are transcribed in the chat so that you can access them at any time when you wish. Statistically, the progression following these private sessions is quickly noticeable, from 2 sessions. (study 2020) PLACES : - Locations: Geneva - Lausanne - Friborg - Neuchâtel - Montreux - Basel - Sion - Sierre - Morges - Bienne. But currently and until further notice, only by videoconference in accordance with national recommendations on Covid. These sessions also seem perfectly unanimous since they have the advantages of direct (example: quality of the interaction), without its disadvantages (example: loss of travel time) with additional advantages (example: chat notes that can be read later). In this context, these videoconference sessions for which you have requested me, seem to suit everyone perfectly, take place in a very optimal way and generate a certain enthusiasm (and a certain enthusiasm). That is why, at your request, I continue to offer this option. Take good care of yourself and yours.

German Class for Beginners/Intermmediate/ Advanced
German? About 40% of German and English vocabulary are very similar to each other, which makes German one of the easiest languages to learn for native English speakers. So, basically, if you already know English, it should be a piece of cake for you to learn German. Why German? Science and Research: German is the second most commonly used scientific language. Cultural understanding: Learning German provides you with an insight into the way of life, and the hopes and dreams of people in German speaking countries, broadening your horizon.

Homework help and lesson deepening course
For some students, homework help in the evening (over a fairly short period of time, often an hour from time to time is enough to create a method that allows the student to improve their work by themselves) may be a necessity. What can also be useful is the deepening of the lessons through small exercises and clarification on the gray points of the courses. What I am proposing here is this help, multidisciplinary until the start of middle school, then, in middle school or high school, in all subjects with the exception of mathematics and possibly physics. I can particularly help in French, history geography, English, SVT, Spanish and geopolitics. The purpose of this course ranges from the simple explanation, reformulation and relearning of a misunderstood course to the development of the student in a given discipline. To do this, I do multiple application exercises, followed by corrections and more theoretical parts if necessary.

Some things work with some students and not with others. Adapting to needs is the goal of private lessons. So I will do my best to find what motivates and helps my students. I speak Spanish at an intermediate level, which is improving every day.
