Puedo ayudarte directa y "basicamente" a jugar al ajedrez tanto como a desarrollar tu pensamiento propio y critico. Sin necesidad de que este estipulado un camino inicial si no tu mismo ir viendo como avanzar por tu cuenta desarrollandote mientras evolucionas. Considerando lo que necesitas y puedas decidir tanto como las factores externos que escapan de nuestro control.

I can help you directly and "basically" play chess as much as developing your own critical thinking. Without any need for a previous path set for you to follow you can make your own and see how to keep advancing, developing yourself on the go. Considering your needs and abilities along what you can choose as well as all external factors that may influence and escape of our control

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.

Every player is different.

Some are discovering chess, others wish to take their game to the next level, gain Elo points or prepare for a competition.

My work begins with an essential step: understanding your game.

I analyze your thought processes, how you select potential moves, calculate, manage your time, and make decisions. I also identify your strengths, weaknesses, and the goals you wish to achieve.

Based on this analysis, we build a training program that truly suits you.

◆ Why are some players stagnating?

Resources for improvement have never been so plentiful: videos, gaming platforms, tactical exercises, databases, analysis engines...

However, having access to more information does not always mean making better progress.

Watching videos can be instructive, but it often remains a passive activity: understanding an explanation is very different from being able to find the right idea yourself in front of the chessboard.

Many players prefer fast paces, whereas taking more time to think during games is often essential for improvement.

After the game, they check their accuracy rate, browse the variants offered by the engine and identify their mistakes... without always understanding why they made them.

An engine can tell you the best move, but it doesn't teach you how to find it yourself.

That's the whole difference between knowing the answer and learning how to think.

To make lasting progress, you need to go beyond simply acknowledging the mistake: understand why it happened and what needs to change in your way of thinking.

This is precisely where the personalized support of a coach becomes truly meaningful.

◆ A method built around your game

The first sessions are mainly devoted to analyzing your games.

I'm not just looking for shots that could have been better. I'm trying to understand what led you to play them.

What did you see in the position? What did you consider? What did you rule out?

This analysis helps to identify recurring patterns in your game and to establish precise priorities.

We then build your training program based on your level, your goals and the time you can dedicate to chess.

Depending on your needs, we will work in particular on:

● Openings and game plans
● Tactics and calculation methods
● Positional strategy and understanding
● Essential Finals
● In-depth analysis of your games
● Competition preparation
● Time management, self-confidence and mental preparation

I always prioritize understanding over rote learning.

My goal is not simply to show you what to play, but to pass on the methods that will gradually allow you to find the right ideas on your own.

I support beginners who want to acquire a good foundation, as well as club players, competitors and online players of all levels.

◆ Concrete results

Here are some recent results obtained by my students:

➤ 800 → 1600 Elo on Chess.com after a year and a half of lessons for an adult player.

➤ 1650 → 2000 Elo FIDE after about fifteen hours of lessons for a 16-year-old student.

➤ First FIDE Elo above 1950 after a year of work for a previously unrated student.

➤ 1600 → 2000 FIDE Elo in two years for a young player who became Champion of Paris in his category.

➤ 1600 → 2380 Elo on Chess.com in 15-minute games after a year of lessons at a rate of 3 hours per week for an adult player.

These results naturally depend on the starting level, regularity and investment of each student.

◆ Children's classes

My approach is tailored to their age, level, and ability to concentrate.

The joy of playing and the desire to learn remain essential. Through exercises and educational games, they gradually learn to think better, anticipate, and make their own decisions at the chessboard.

◆ Videoconference classes

Video conferencing is particularly well-suited to teaching chess.

Thanks to screen sharing, we can analyze your games, study positions together, work on your openings, compare different ideas and perform exercises in real time.

After each session, I will send you the materials used so that you can review the concepts studied and continue your work between classes.

◆ Your chess project

Send me a message briefly describing your level, experience, and goals.

Contacting me is already taking the first step towards your progress.

Homework support isn't about getting answers faster. It's about learning how to learn.
While some parents see homework as a battle, I see an opportunity: teaching your child how his brain actually works.

In this class, your child will learn:
✓ How to actually study: not "work harder," but use methods that stick (mind maps, spaced repetition, Pomodoro technique)
✓ Time management without stress: organizing a chaotic schedule without anxiety apps
✓ When to use AI wisely: ChatGPT and other tools as learning partners, not cheating shortcuts
✓ Skills that matter: clear communication, problem-solving like a real thinker, asking good questions
✓ Support in any subject: math, languages, science, humanities, whatever they struggle with

How it works:
We start by understanding how your child actually learns, we don't impose a system that doesn't work for him.
Then we build a toolkit: proven study methods, personal strategies, technology used intelligently, and the confidence that he can learn anything.

What they take home:
A study system that works for him, not for others. Techniques he uses across all subjects. And something more important: the belief that learning isn't something that happens to him — it's something he controls.

Format: Online or Barcelona | 60–90 min sessions | Personalized to his age, subjects, and pace.
For parents wondering "Why is homework still a battle?"

Let's rebuild the foundation

Passionate about chess since childhood and a teacher by profession, I offer online courses aimed primarily at beginner and intermediate players who wish to progress in a structured way while retaining the pleasure of playing.

My goal is not simply to teach you moves or openings to memorize. My main aim is to help you understand why a move is good, how to construct a plan, and how to identify tactical possibilities on the chessboard.

The courses are tailored to your level, age and goals.

Depending on your needs, we can work:
- the rules of the game and the fundamental principles;
- the development of the pieces and the principles of opening;
- tactics: forks, pins, skewers, discovered attacks, typical checkmates;
- the strategy and the construction of a plan;
- the middle of the game;
- the essential finals;
- the calculation of variants;
- time management;
- the analysis of your own games.

An important part of my method involves analyzing the games you've played with you. Together, we look for key moments, mistakes, missed opportunities, and the best alternatives.

For beginners, we progress gradually in order to build good habits from the very first games.

For intermediate players, we can work more specifically on their weaknesses, delve deeper into certain tactical or strategic themes, and analyze their games in detail.

The lessons are interactive: you play, you think, you suggest moves and we analyze the positions together.

Children, teenagers and adults are welcome.
