Preparing for the SAT, GRE, or GMAT math sections and want to stop losing points on problems you actually know how to solve?
This course is built around one goal: getting you the highest possible score on test day, in the shortest time, with the least wasted effort.
I'm a State Engineer (IAV Hassan II) with a CPGE background in Mathematics and Physics — the most rigorous math preparation track in the Moroccan system. The math on these standardized tests is well within that level, which means I don't just know how to solve these problems — I know multiple ways to solve them, and I'll teach you the fastest and most reliable one for exam conditions.

What's covered — by exam:
1-SAT Math

- Heart of Algebra (linear equations, systems, inequalities)
- Problem Solving & Data Analysis (ratios, percentages, statistics)
- Passport to Advanced Math (quadratics, functions, polynomials)
- Additional Topics (geometry, trigonometry, complex numbers)
- Calculator vs. no-calculator strategy

2-GRE Quantitative Reasoning

- Arithmetic and number properties
- Algebra and coordinate geometry
- Data interpretation and statistics
- Quantitative comparison strategy
- Time management under pressure

3-GMAT Quantitative / Focus Edition

- Problem Solving and Data Sufficiency
- Data Insights section
- Elimination strategies for tricky wording
- Pacing and guessing strategy

My teaching approach:
Standardized math tests are not about being good at math — they're about recognizing patterns, avoiding traps, and managing time. I teach you both: the actual math and the test-taking strategy that separates a 650 from a 750 on the GRE, or a 680 from a 780 on the SAT.
Every session is personalized. We start with a diagnostic — I identify exactly which question types are costing you the most points — then we build sessions around fixing those specifically. No wasted time on things you already know.

Who this is for:

Students targeting top universities in the US, UK, or Europe (SAT)
Professionals applying to MBA or graduate programs (GMAT / GRE)
Anyone who feels "stuck" at a score plateau and needs a structured push
Students with strong school math who just need to learn the test format

What I offer:

Diagnostic session to assess your current level and target score gap
Personalized session plan based on your exam date and weak areas
Practice problems with detailed step-by-step breakdowns
Timed mock drills to build exam-day confidence
Available for intensive short-term prep (2–4 weeks) or longer structured programs

Do you feel that your child is working hard in mathematics, but their results are not improving?

He understands the lesson, but doesn't know how to start an exercise?
He knows the formulas, but doesn't know when or how to use them?
Does he lack a solid foundation, accumulate difficulties from one chapter to the next, or lose confidence as soon as an exercise becomes more complex?
Does he have difficulty organizing his work, reasoning, or writing his solutions correctly?
Or perhaps he is preparing for an exam, the Brevet or the Baccalaureate, and doesn't know how to prepare effectively?

It is precisely in these difficulties that I can support him.

I am a mathematics teacher with 13 years of teaching experience, holding a Master's degree in mathematics and trained at ENSET Mohammedia. I tutor middle and high school students, particularly in the Moroccan and French curricula.

🎯 My goal: to understand the difficulty before trying to fix it

Not every student has the same problem.

Some have gaps in their basic knowledge.
Others understand the lesson but lack a method.
Some people know how to solve classic exercises but get stuck as soon as the problem statement changes.
Others primarily need to regain confidence and learn to work in a more organized way.

That's why I'm not simply suggesting we redo the course.

During the initial sessions, I identify the student's difficulties and the concepts that need reinforcement. We then create a learning plan tailored to their level, pace, and objective.

📚 How does my support work?

Depending on the student's needs, we can work on:

• understanding the course material and difficult concepts;
• the upgrading and the accumulated gaps;
• the method for solving the exercises;
• mathematical reasoning;
• drafting and presenting solutions;
• progressive exercises adapted to the student's level;
• homework and tests;
• preparation for the Brevet and the Baccalaureate;
• exam preparation;
• Work organization and priority management.

I adapt to the student's pace: the goal is not simply to give them the answer, but to allow them to understand, reason and gradually become autonomous.

💻 Truly interactive online courses

The classes are conducted remotely using Google Meet and an interactive whiteboard.

The student can follow the explanations, participate directly, solve the exercises with me and receive materials or screenshots of the work done during the session.

I favour a clear, progressive and interactive teaching method, with plenty of practice.

🏆 A concrete experience of academic support

During my years of teaching, I have worked with students of very different profiles and levels.

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".

My goal, however, is not solely to obtain a better grade in the short term: I am primarily seeking to gradually eliminate the obstacles that prevent the student from progressing.

👨‍🎓 For which students?

• Middle school: 5th, 4th, 3rd grade
• High school: 10th, 11th, 12th grade
• Moroccan and French programs
• Mathematics specialization at the French high school
• Refresher course
• Regular support
• Preparation for tests and exams
• Preparation for the Brevet and Baccalaureate exams

The courses are designed for both students who are experiencing difficulties and those who wish to consolidate their level and aim for better results.

📩 You don't know exactly why your child is struggling with math?

You can describe his level, his current difficulties and his goal in your message.

I can tell you which points we should work on as a priority and suggest a suitable support method.

My goal is simple: to transform difficulties into skills and help the student gradually regain confidence in their mathematical abilities.

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.

In addition, I offer crash courses for students preparing for the start of the school year, allowing them to start the year well prepared, with a solid lead on the school curriculum.

If you have any questions, do not hesitate to contact me. I will be happy to help you.

Students following American-style academic pathways often need very specific support. They are not only learning Mathematics, Science or Statistics; they are also preparing for systems where GPA, course grades, AP results, SAT/ACT scores and university applications can all matter at the same time. American High School courses, AP exams, SAT and ACT preparation require strong foundations, fast problem-solving, clear reasoning and regular practice with the right type of questions.
This is exactly where I help.

→ I am a Switzerland-based tutor with a strong academic background in Mathematics, Statistics, Data Science, Artificial Intelligence and technical sciences. My education in the Swiss higher education system has shaped the way I teach: precise, structured, logical and focused on real understanding.

→ Over the years, I have taught many students from international schools, American-style school programmes, British curriculum schools and Swiss schools. Through this experience, I have become very familiar with the common difficulties students face in SAT Math, ACT Math, ACT Science, AP Calculus, AP Statistics, AP Physics, AP Chemistry and American High School Math and Science courses.

→ I also work with previous exam papers, official-style practice questions, AP-style exercises, SAT/ACT-style questions and topic-based material. This allows my lessons to be highly exam-focused. Students do not only learn the theory; they practice the type of questions they are likely to meet in school tests, AP exams, SAT/ACT exams and final assessments.

→ MY MAIN TEACHING FOCUS

→ I mainly support students in SAT Math, ACT Math, ACT Science, AP Calculus AB, AP Calculus BC, AP Statistics, AP Physics, AP Chemistry and American High School Math and Science courses.

→ This includes Algebra 1, Geometry, Algebra 2, Precalculus, Calculus, Biology, Chemistry, Physics, Statistics, Probability, Functions, Graphs, Trigonometry, Vectors, Mechanics, Electricity, Waves, Stoichiometry, Equilibrium, Acids and Bases, Kinetics and Electrochemistry.

→ I also support students who are preparing for university entrance exams, school-specific assessments, placement tests or international university applications where strong Mathematics and Science results are important.

→ SPECIFIC SUPPORT FOR SAT, ACT, AP AND AMERICAN HIGH SCHOOL COURSES

For SAT Math, I help students improve speed, accuracy and confidence. The main focus is on Algebra, functions, quadratic equations, systems of equations, geometry, trigonometry, statistics, probability and word problems. SAT Math questions often test familiar topics in unfamiliar ways, so students need strong foundations and smart exam technique. I teach students how to recognize patterns, avoid traps and solve questions efficiently under time pressure.

→ For ACT Math, I support students with the wide range of topics tested in the exam. ACT Math is fast, broad and time-sensitive, so students need both knowledge and strategy. I help students revise key areas such as algebra, geometry, functions, trigonometry, probability and statistics, while also improving timing, accuracy and decision-making during the exam.

→ For ACT Science, I focus on graph reading, table interpretation, experimental reasoning and scientific data analysis. Many students think ACT Science is mainly about memorizing Biology, Chemistry or Physics facts, but in reality it tests how quickly and accurately students can understand scientific information. I train students to read graphs, compare data, understand experiments and answer questions under time pressure.

→ For AP Calculus AB, I support students with limits, derivatives, applications of differentiation, integrals, applications of integration and basic differential equations. I help students understand the logic behind calculus, not only memorize rules. Students learn how to connect graphs, formulas, word problems and written explanations.

→ For AP Calculus BC, I cover all AP Calculus AB topics and also support students with more advanced topics such as sequences, series, convergence tests, Taylor series, parametric equations, polar functions and advanced integration ideas. AP Calculus BC requires strong algebra, clear thinking and regular exam-style practice.

→ For AP Statistics, I help students with descriptive statistics, probability, distributions, sampling, experimental design, confidence intervals, hypothesis testing, regression and interpretation of results. AP Statistics is not only about calculations; students also need to explain results clearly in words. I help them write answers in the correct statistical language.

→ For AP Physics, I support students with mechanics, forces, energy, momentum, circular motion, rotation, electricity, circuits, waves and other topics depending on the exact AP Physics course. The focus is on understanding concepts, choosing the correct formula, using units properly and explaining physical reasoning clearly.

→ For AP Chemistry, I help students with stoichiometry, atomic structure, bonding, chemical reactions, thermodynamics, equilibrium, acids and bases, kinetics and electrochemistry. Students often struggle because Chemistry combines theory, formulas and multi-step calculations. I break the topic down clearly and practice exam-style questions until the method becomes understandable.

→ WHY EXPERIENCE WITH THESE EXAMS MATTERS

→ Every American-style exam and course has its own logic. SAT Math often tests simple topics in clever ways and rewards speed, accuracy and pattern recognition. ACT Math is broad and time-pressured, so students need both knowledge and fast decision-making. ACT Science is not mainly about memorizing science facts; it focuses on graphs, tables, experiments, data interpretation and scientific reasoning.

→ AP exams are different again. AP Calculus requires deep understanding of limits, derivatives, integrals and applications. AP Statistics requires careful interpretation, correct language and clear reasoning. AP Physics and AP Chemistry require students to connect concepts with calculations and explain their thinking clearly.

→ Because I have taught many students preparing for these subjects, I understand the difference between knowing the topic and being able to perform well under exam conditions. A student may understand the lesson in school, but still lose marks because the method is incomplete, the explanation is unclear, the calculation is rushed, or the question is misunderstood.

→ That is why my lessons are not random. I use a structured system: first we build the foundation, then we practice topic-based questions, and then we move towards mixed exam-style problems. This helps students become more confident, faster and more independent.

I scored a 1550 on the SAT and have been helping students prepare for the SAT for over 3 years, with a consistent focus on helping students reach and exceed the 1500+ range.
This class is designed to go beyond simply reviewing SAT content. We will focus on strategy, efficiency, accuracy, and the specific habits that separate a good SAT score from an exceptional one.

What we will focus on
- How to approach difficult SAT questions efficiently
- Strategies for consistently scoring 1500+
- How to recognize common SAT question patterns and traps
- Techniques for eliminating answer choices quickly
- How to manage time effectively across the entire test
- When to use your calculator and how to use it efficiently
- How to approach unfamiliar questions without getting stuck
- Strategies for maximizing both Math and Reading & Writing
- Common mistakes that prevent students from breaking 1500
- How to analyze practice tests and identify exactly where points are being lost
- How to turn weaknesses into measurable score improvements

Advanced strategies for students already scoring in the 1400–1500+ range
We will work through challenging, realistic SAT-style questions and focus on why certain approaches work, rather than simply memorizing rules or solutions.
Whether you are trying to break 1400, reach 1500, or push toward 1550+, the goal of this class is to give you a clear strategy for approaching the SAT and maximizing every available point.

You don't need to know everything to score 1500+. You need to know how to recognize the question, choose the right strategy, and execute it efficiently.

Videoconference classes for students in grades 6, 5, 4 and 3 of the French program, both in France and in the network of French schools abroad.

In middle school, difficulties in math rarely stem from the current chapter. They almost always originate from a foundation established two or three years earlier: fractions, proportionality, algebraic expressions. As long as these concepts aren't revisited, each new chapter exacerbates the situation. My work begins by identifying this missing foundation.

Master's degree in Operations Research (applied mathematics), more than five years of private tutoring for students in the AEFE and Mission laïque networks, in both public and private institutions.

What we are working on

Numbers, fractions, algebraic expressions, equations
Proportionality, percentages, statistics
Plane geometry, theorems of Thales and Pythagoras, transformations
Preparation for the patent
Working method: read a problem statement, choose an approach, check a result

The process

Initial assessment during the first sessions, a catch-up plan, followed by a regular weekly schedule. I align with the classroom teacher's approach and provide exercises between sessions. A monthly written progress report is available for parents who wish to receive it.

I also offer pre-start preparation sessions, to get a head start on the year rather than being late.

Courses in French, English or Arabic.
