About Me

Hi! I’m Liou, a native Mandarin Chinese speaker originally from China, currently based in Rome, Italy. I’ve spent years living and studying across Asia and Europe — in Japan, France, and now Italy — which has given me a deep appreciation for how language shapes culture and connection. I’m passionate about making Chinese accessible and enjoyable for learners at any level. My lessons are structured but flexible, adapted to your pace and real-world goals: whether that’s mastering Pinyin from scratch, building conversational fluency, or diving into characters and tones. I bring genuine enthusiasm to every session, and I believe the best learning happens when you feel comfortable and motivated. Let’s make Chinese click for you — 加油 :)

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.

Passionate about general knowledge, I've always loved school and learning new things. I also really enjoy sharing knowledge, which is why I earned my teaching certification; I'm therefore perfectly comfortable giving lessons and guiding students' progress :)
In the case of a student in the school system: we will review the current year's lessons/those to come next year in order to make up for any potential delays and/or get ahead to facilitate the coming year.
Outside of the school system: I will create materials tailored to your tastes :)
