    Learn and get help with English language speaking and writing, Biology, Neuroscience and Psychology.

    As a scientist and researcher, I have experience teaching various subjects in science to high-school and university students. I have also worked as an English language tutor for over 5 years and love being able to help people to better use the language (whether for communication or for writing for school and work).

    Being able to be comfortable with the English language is a huge advantage not only for everyday communication but also to be able to communicate professionally. I especially specialize in the use of the English language for presentation and writing in the sciences and social sciences. I adapt my classes to each of my students - depending on their needs and goals. So whether you need help with conversational English or with your essays, scientific articles, theses, or dissertations - I can provide a specialized plan for you, and will do so taking into your field of study. Additionally, I can help you proofread and edit any writing you have.

    I am also a neuroscientist by training and can provide classes and help with your courses in Psychology, Biology, or Neuroscience. Additionally, I also tutor for Mathematics, Physics, and Engineering Sciences for high school and university students (in both English and French). My teaching philosophy for these is still the same- I adapt and prepare every class to each individual student's goals and needs.

    About Me

    I am a research scientist who loves teaching and have always made it a big part of my life- as a student and in my career.

    I completed a Ph.D. in Neuroscience in 2019, and am currently undertaking a second post-doctoral fellowship at INSERM in France. I have taught university-level courses on neuroscience, biology, psychology, and statistics. I also have an equivalent amount of experience teaching English to second language speakers (focusing especially on conversational aspects) and as a writing tutor where I helped university students and professionals with their writing on various subjects from the sciences, social sciences, humanities, fine arts, and engineering.

    I can help you write and improve any aspect of writing you may have- essays, lab reports, presentations, theses, dissertation and also help you prepare for tests. I understand how important it is to suit the style of writing to the topic at hand and understand the differences between writing for English, social sciences, and sciences.
    I also provide classes on English writing, neuroscience, and psychology.

    I can provide one-one or group tutoring and take the utmost care to provide classes and help that best suit each individual student, taking into account their specific needs and their specific areas of help.

    English is a Germanic language originating in England that over the centuries has become one of the most widely spoken and influential languages in the world. Today, it is the primary language of international communication, business, science, technology, popular culture, and diplomatic exchanges. Some characteristics of English: Global language: English is spoken by approximately 1.5 billion people worldwide, either as a native or second language. It is the official or dominant language in more than 50 countries. Ease of learning: Compared to other languages, English has a relatively simple grammar. It has no grammatical gender for nouns, and verbs are often less complex in terms of conjugation. Richness of vocabulary: English is a very flexible language, having borrowed words from many other languages such as French, German, Latin or Arabic, which gives it a richness of vocabulary. Language of popular culture: It is the dominant language in film, music, literature, and media. Most of the world's major popular films, series, songs, and books are in English. Language of innovation: In the technology, scientific research and innovation sectors, English is often the primary language used in publications and conferences. In short, English is much more than just a means of communication. It is a living and evolving language that plays a key role in uniting and connecting people across continents. Learning English is an essential skill in our modern world.

    Mathematics courses given by pre-PhD math students
    Mathematics is a very important subject in the schools and even in the universities. As a math-major student, I have a good knowledge of math. I could offer courses for students preparing for exams in the schools, or possibly the math olympiads. I would also be happy to give more advanced courses for students who want to know more about modern mathematics, which might also be useful for high school or college-entrance exams.

In this class, I will focus on practical conversation, based on my experience as a tour guide. We’ll cover essential Japanese phrases that my guests often wanted to learn while traveling.

    Cours d'anglais particuliers à Paris (présentiel ou EAD)
    Hello ! Je m'appelle Gavin et j'ai 25 ans. Je viens de Seattle (Etats-Unis) et j'ai un Master en littérature anglaise et j’ai un certificat TEFL. Ce que je peux vous offrir : - Cours pour adultes et adolescents adaptés à votre niveau et à vos objectifs (de B1 à C2) - Cours de préparation à l'IELTS, CAE, TOEFL et autres examens - Cours de conversation - Business English (l'anglais des affaires) - English for Academic Purposes (l'anglais à des fins académiques) Je vais vous apprendre comment l'anglais est parlé et utilisé dans des situations réelles et quotidiennes. En nous concentrant sur les quatre compétences (lire, écrire, parler et écouter), nous pratiquerons des techniques de conversation tout en affinant votre grammaire, vocabulaire et prononciation. Le contenu peut porter sur des sujets que vous intéressent, qu'il s'agisse de petites conversations, de littérature, de cinéma, de politique ou de vos devoirs d'anglais. Quoi qu'il en soit, l'objectif principal de nos cours sera normalement de parler et d'écouter, mais je vous encouragerai toujours à vous exposer à autant d'anglais que possible en dehors des cours, que ce soit en regardant YouTube en anglais ou en lisant un journal. Normalement, les exercices de grammaire, de vocabulaire et d'écriture seront faits à la maison, sauf indication contraire de votre part. Je ne vous dirai pas « c'est comme ça ». Si vous voulez travailler sur votre grammaire, je serai heureux de vous aider à travers des explications et des exercices significatifs spécialement choisis pour vous, votre niveau et le type d'apprenant que vous êtes. Nous pouvons organiser des cours chez moi dans le 14ème arrondissement, en ligne via Zoom, à votre domicile ou encore dans un café si vous voulez. I look forward to hearing from you and to a successful collaboration ! Gavin

    Literature and social science (and more) class to evolve minds
    Economics is the unstoppable subject for young people in high school, whether they are in business or not, and it increasingly leaves many perplexed. I thus set myself up as a "solver" of the problems of incomprehension of learners around the economics course as well as those related to the writing of subjects for better class averages. Languages ​​represent, among other things, the cornerstone of a more than bilingual world! In addition to teaching them how to better handle French grammar, spelling and conjugation, they will learn English and its many turns of phrase with me to be even more brilliant.
