Statistics and Mathematics for Advancing thinking and logic (University Based Teaching)
This is not your traditional math class! Rather than focusing on rote memorization or rigid formulas, this course emphasizes developing a deeper understanding of mathematical and statistical reasoning. Instead of simply teaching students how to calculate an average (mean), for instance, I will guide them toward discovering how to develop a value that they believe best represents an average. This reflective approach helps students think critically about the meaning and application of mathematical concepts, rather than just performing calculations.
The course prioritizes practical applications over theoretical repetition. You will engage with real-world case studies and utilize modern tools such as MATLAB, R, and Python to solve problems across fields like medicine, social sciences, and business. We will explore statistical reasoning, data analysis, and numerical algorithms, always with the goal of helping students connect these abstract concepts to professional and real-life scenarios.
By encouraging students to question, analyze, and understand the underlying logic of mathematical principles, the course fosters critical thinking and problem-solving skills. By the end, you will not only know how to perform calculations but also understand the "why" behind them, enabling you to apply mathematical reasoning effectively in academic and professional contexts.

About Me
Hello! My name is Tim, and I am currently a Lecturer in Statistics and Psychometric at a UK University. My academic journey has equipped me with expertise in mathematics, statistics, and computational modelling, with a strong focus on their practical applications across various fields, especially in medicine and social sciences.I hold a PhD in Computational Modelling from the University of Warwick, where my research centered around applying mathematical methods in interdisciplinary contexts. This has given me a deep understanding of both pure and applied mathematics, which I integrate into my teaching. I also hold an MSc in Physics from the Chinese University of Hong Kong, an MSc in Applied Mathematics from Imperial College London, and a BSc in Mathematics and Statistics (First Class Honours) from the University of Plymouth.
In addition to my academic qualifications, I have completed the PGCAP (FHEA Pathway) at the University of Liverpool. This has further refined my teaching practices, allowing me to create inclusive, student-centered learning environments that foster critical thinking and problem-solving.
Throughout my career, I have taught a wide range of subjects, from foundational mathematics to advanced statistics, at various academic levels. My experience includes developing course materials, delivering lectures and workshops, and guiding students through complex mathematical and statistical concepts using practical examples. I am proficient in mathematical software such as MATLAB, R, and Python, and I enjoy helping students navigate these tools to enhance their learning experience.
I am passionate about fostering a deeper understanding of mathematics and statistics, not just as technical skills, but as ways of thinking that can be applied across disciplines. I look forward to engaging with students and creating an interactive and meaningful learning journey.
I hold several academic degrees, including:
PhD in Computational Modelling, University of Warwick
MSc in Physics, Chinese University of Hong Kong
MSc in Applied Mathematics, Imperial College London
BSc in Mathematics and Statistics (First Honours), University of Plymouth
PGCAP (FHEA Pathway), University of Liverpool

Private online mathematics lessons - Qualified and experienced teacherI 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.

Private chemistry lessons for preparatory classes: PC / PCSI / PSI / BTS / MPSIAssociate professor, I offer individual lessons in chemistry and physics to prepare you for exams.
Teaching physics chemistry allowed me to understand the difficulties that students must overcome to learn, especially when it comes to subjects that are still somewhat new. Teaching and providing help in these subjects (chemistry, maths, physics) is my way of being part of society.
In these courses, I will provide students with all the tools necessary to learn and master their subjects and teach them how to use them in the job market.

Mathematics (Applied Math, Calculus, Linear Algebra, Geometry, IBM Exams, Entrance Exams): Primary/High School/Bachelor/Master StudentsMathematics is all about learning basic elements with which you can create explosions, interactions and much more desired computations. It is the heart of every science known and without it, even the text that I am writing right now would not work (recall binary numbers).
I have always been passionate about Math and during primary and high school I attended many Regional Math Olympiads where I usually won the top 5 places. During this period, I got the chance to be trained by university professors and gained knowledge of many complex math concepts at a really young age. This made it possible for me to afterward be able to explain these concepts in a brief and clear manner to my fellow students. I aspire to visualize everything with everyday life and when students see this connection, the puzzle is finally solved. We can cover all of the branches of mathematics together at the desired level and degree level. Starting from Algebra, Geometry, Calculus, Probability, Trigonometry and much more, we will build that mathematic intuition in no time!
