IB SUBJECTS TUTORING - ECONOMICS, English Language and Literature, Global Politics
My teaching style is student-centered and adaptive, focusing on making learning both enjoyable and highly effective. I believe in creating an interactive and supportive environment where students feel comfortable asking questions and engaging in discussions. I tailor lessons to meet each student's unique learning style, combining real-world examples, visual aids, and structured exercises to simplify complex topics. My goal is to build a strong conceptual foundation while encouraging critical thinking and problem-solving skills. Having excelled in the IB Diploma myself, achieving 6s and 7s in all the subjects I teach at higher level—Economics, Politics and, English Language and Literature —I know firsthand what it takes to succeed in the program. I understand the pressure students face and provide guidance on both mastering content and developing strong exam strategies, including time management and familiarity with past papers. My students benefit from my deep subject knowledge and my passion for helping them achieve their best potential. Many of my students have shown marked improvement in both their confidence and academic performance. Whether you aim to boost your grades, prepare for exams, or better understand the material, I am committed to helping you succeed.

Téo
Business school student (EDHEC) gives math and English lessons from middle school to high school in Lille. Experience as a tutor at EDHEC
I mainly teach math lessons from middle school to high school. Before starting the lessons, I need to get in touch with the student to know their level, the areas where they want to improve and their objectives. Depending on the level, I adapt the work seen in class to the different points of improvement and suggest exercises consistent with what the student is stuck on. At the same time, I go over point by point the elements that were not for the student (in the Ds and the questions) I rework the exercises seen in class. Finally, and this is the most important, I advise the student on his working methods, with what state of mind to approach the exercises. I can also provide homework help in subjects other than mathematics: I got 17 in the HEC philosophy exams and I didn't get below 18 in subjects such as SES, Philosophy and history in the BAC. I recommend at least one math lesson per week in order to take stock of the week; it is regularity that allows progress. As a Tutor at EDHEC I already have experience of courses with high schools. I am a calm, composed and educational person. In terms of math, I got 18 in my math baccalaureate and then I went to a HEC preparatory class at Louis-Le-Grand in advanced math where I had more than 12 hours of math per week.

Diksha
English, Social Studies, proper study plan and answer writing
Theoretical subjects and languages often seem complicated to grasp. The concepts and terminology the former contains sometimes make it difficult for students to get a proper hold on a basic part of the subjects. However, I will introduce all these theoretical concepts to you uniquely and in a storytelling mode. These subjects will not haunt you anymore, as your tutor is here to guide you throughout your journey with a proper study plan and fun learning.
