Private online mathematics lessons - Qualified and experienced teacher
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 perfect knowledge of the mathematics program of the College and the High School (from the Sixth to the Terminale). During my formative years, I studied and developed many techniques that make it easier to learn math. The strength of my pedagogical approach lies in my ability to explain in a simple way everything that the student finds complicated. I am passionate about this job because it gives me the opportunity to guide dropout students on the path to success. It is a real pleasure to see them evolve and come to terms with the fantastic world of mathematics. I provide my private lessons in Limoges (at the student's home) or remotely (online via the internet). My distance learning courses take place on an interactive online whiteboard. This board is specially designed to promote student/teacher interaction on the internet. Thanks to this educational tool, my online courses are as effective as home courses. The student only needs an internet connection and a computer, tablet, or smartphone to take advantage of it.

Arabic Language Lessons - Saudi Curriculum - Primary and Intermediate Grades
This chapter explains the Arabic language subject for the Saudi curriculum in a simplified and comprehensive way that suits all levels of students. The lesson deals with modern teaching methods that combine detailed explanation and direct interaction with students, with a focus on building their language skills in reading, writing, listening and speaking. My passion for teaching Arabic stems from my deep belief in its importance as part of our cultural identity, and my desire to help students understand its grammar and enjoy its beauty. I use motivational methods to engage students in the lesson, such as interactive quizzes, practical examples, and engaging short stories that touch on their daily lives. In this lesson, students will learn to analyze and understand texts accurately, along with grammar and syntax skills in an organized and easy way. I also make sure to enhance their self-confidence through practical applications and exercises that support repetition and practice. I aim to make Arabic a fun subject rather than a challenge, and I work to provide a positive learning environment that helps students reach their full potential. In addition, I provide personalized advice to each student to improve their level according to their individual needs. This lesson is not just an explanation of the course, but rather a journey to discover the beauty of the Arabic language and communicate effectively through it.
