Experienced teacher in mathematics and French, tailored pedagogy, expertise in individualized tutoring and remote learning success

About

With 34 years of experience within the French national education system, I have been supporting students for the past 3 years, mainly in mathematics and French (as well as in history-geography, physics-chemistry and life and earth sciences), by providing personalized online teaching, both in France and internationally.

Coming from a demanding scientific background (Maths Sup and Maths Spé preparatory classes) and trained in psychology, I combine rigor, clarity and kindness in my teaching. My goal is to consolidate the fundamentals, develop autonomy and strengthen each student's confidence within a structured and motivating framework.

Alongside my teaching activity, I work as a copywriter and public writer, which strengthens my expertise in written expression and linguistic precision.

My practice of competitive longe-côte (aquatic walking) and yoga reflects values of perseverance, balance and discipline that I also pass on to my students.

Teaching experience

Primary school teacher, holder of the CRPE (French primary teaching certification), for 34 years within the French national education system, providing multidisciplinary primary education (mathematics, French, science, history-geography).

Supporting students with varied profiles (some with PPRE, personalized education success plans), adapting my teaching practices to each student's specific needs, with particular attention to structuring learning and individualized follow-up.

Served as school principal, developing skills in pedagogical coordination, organization and communication with families.

Since 2023, providing private tutoring from Year 1 (CP) to Year 10 (3ᵉ), in person (for two tutoring organizations in France) and via video conference (for a tutoring organization in Dubai), following a methodical, rigorous and caring approach.

Teaching methods

  • I support students from Year 1 (CP) to Year 10 (3ᵉ), in person (for two tutoring organizations) and via video conference (for a tutoring organization based in Dubai).
  • I offer support mainly in mathematics and French, as well as in science (physics-chemistry, life and earth sciences) and history-geography as needed (for example, preparation for the brevet des collèges).
  • My support is aimed at students who want to consolidate their basics, deepen their knowledge or regain confidence in their work, particularly in the context of distance learning or international schooling.
  • My lessons take place via Google Meet, using Google Slides as interactive whiteboards.
  • These materials become genuine digital daily notebooks, which the student keeps for revision.
  • Each session is structured in three parts:
  • 1. Building or clarifying the lesson
  • Clear and progressive explanation
  • Highlighting the essential points to remember
  • Writing a summary in the virtual notebook
  • 2. Active verification of understanding
  • Targeted questions
  • Rephrasing by the student
  • Help with memorizing key elements
  • 3. Application and practice exercises
  • Graduated exercises
  • Explained correction
  • Adjustment according to the difficulties encountered
  • I place great importance on methodological learning: learning a lesson, understanding what is essential, knowing how to test oneself (developing autonomy).
  • My characteristics as a tutor:
  • Great rigor and structured learning
  • Individualized follow-up and adaptation to the student's pace
  • A caring yet demanding work environment
  • Clear and regular communication with families
  • Development of autonomy and confidence
  • My goal is to help each student make lasting progress, by giving them solid tools and an effective working method.
