Test-prep tutoring, reading, Finnish Language, homework - Support from Special Education Teacher

I am a qualified Special Education teacher from Finland and I offer test-prep tutoring, help with homework, support for learning disabilities, teaching Finnish language and tutoring in all subjects in the Primary school level.

My teaching style is student-centered and encouraging. I tailor each session's content to meet the unique needs of each student and consider their individual learning style. Some students remember things better through visuals, some through listening, and others through hands-on practice. My goal is for each student to genuinely understand the material, enabling them to apply what they've learned in various real-life situations. Simply repeating information without comprehension doesn’t lead to lasting learning.

I hope to work with students of all ages and needs. However, I should mention that my strongest expertise in mathematics is limited to the basic school curriculum.

Please reach out to me if you're looking for a calm, flexible, warm, and approachable private tutor. Due to my professional background, students who need additional support are more than welcome to contact me.

Currently, I only offer online lessons, as my lifestyle is quite mobile.

Extra information

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.
