Having worked as a teaching assistant and a tutor I specialise in tutoring maths and english for 4 - 19 year olds.

I am an experienced and certified mathematics tutor specializing in a range of curriculums, including AS and A-Levels, IGCSE, GCSE, SATs, Edexcel, and the International Baccalaureate (IB).

I encourage students to ask questions and engage in discussions, as this fosters a deeper understanding of the material.

I also recognize that exam preparation involves more than just understanding the content; it requires familiarity with the exam format and types of questions they will encounter. I provide targeted practice using past papers and mock exams, which allows students to hone their test-taking skills and time management. This practice is essential for building the resilience and confidence needed to perform well under exam conditions.

Whether you're looking for support with fundamental concepts or advanced topics, I am here to provide clear explanations and structured guidance. My lessons are designed to be engaging and interactive, ensuring that students remain motivated and focused.

This perspective not only helps them in their studies but also equips them with resilience that will serve them well in all areas of life.

If you're looking for expert tutoring that delivers outstanding results, I invite you to book a lesson today. Together, we can embark on a journey toward academic excellence in mathematics.

✅Practical sessions aimed at providing you with tools, techniques, methods and strategies to better formulate your messages, choose the right words and arguments, and more effectively obtain what you want, by understanding the psychology of your interlocutors and the mechanisms of human communication.

You're constantly negotiating—at work, with your family, in your relationships. The difference between reaching an agreement and remaining dissatisfied often lies in how things are said, the timing, and the other person's understanding. The goal is to learn to decode your interlocutors (their motivations, resistance, and ways of operating) and adapt your verbal and non-verbal communication to be better understood, without confrontation or power struggles, with finesse and efficiency, until these reflexes become second nature.

The approach integrates the analysis of behaviors, modes of expression, and verbal and non-verbal signals (semiotics, relational dynamics, profiles, and human reactions) to identify expectations, obstacles, and motivations. This allows for precise adjustment of communication and maximizes the impact of each interaction, whether in a professional or personal context.

Rather than generic techniques, it is about understanding the real functioning of the human being and adapting one's discourse to the person in front of: capturing attention, arousing curiosity, reducing resistance and triggering action.

Objective: to concretely increase your chances of obtaining the desired result, with efficiency, finesse and respect for others.
