About Me

I have worked as an electrical engineer for the majority of my career and have a total of 40 years of experience gained in the UK, Holland, where I spent 22 years of my life and in Indonesia where I lived and worked for 5 years in the 1980's. After University I took a job in the steel industry which gave me a very strong background in design and engineering in the harshest and most demanding of environments and this proved to be invaluable in my later career designing and building power plants and transmission lines in the deserts of Saudi Arabia. My working experience as a teacher/lecturer is limited to 5 years at a technical college but I have always had the ability to share my enthusiasm for electrical engineering with those who have been under my charge. Whilst I have always used my knowledge of electrical engineering theory to great effect, I consider my ability to pass on my practical experience in the real world to be of equal value. I am articulate and organised with a good sense of humour which I have always found to be essential to the establishment of good communications.

Education

BSc in Electrical Engineering from Battersea College of Advanced Technology which in 1966 was an internal school of London University. BAT CAT moved to Guildford in 1967/8 and became the University of Surrey.

Experience / Qualifications

1. 5 Years of teaching HNC Electrical Engineering at Longlands Technical College in Middlesbrough.
2. 10 years experience as an Electrical Engineer in the steel industry designing and commissioning process control systems for steel making and rolled steel plate processing plants.
3. 15 years as an Electrical Engineer and Project Manager undertaking power system studies and designing and commissioning power generation plants, MV distribution systems and HV transmission lines and substations in the Middle East and SE Asia.
4. 15 Years as a Business Manager in Engineering Recruitment.

Benoit
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.

Salah Eddine
Math support courses for high school students (Science Maths, Science Exp, Letters ...)
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.
