About Me

40 years of software engineering from the simplest of computers to the complex multi computer systems in autonomous lorries and fly by wire aircraft, including a surprising amount in your mobile phone. Those pictures you see in old programs like 'The Professionals' of big tape players - I worked with those, that packet of crisps - I probably programmed the machine that packets them.
Not a geek in the sense of thinking computers are wonderful, they are a stunningly useful tool but only when someone has programmed them correctly.

Discussion sessions around history, current affairs or indeed any other subjects you find interesting. Rule is that it will be in English at whatever level you are. Some correction but sympathetically done so that the conversation keeps going.
Most of us have cars. A good number of people spend a lot on garage maintenance. Most of us have things at home that get broken from toys to mobile phones, from model trains to TVs lots of people throw them out when they dont work. With some practical work lets learn to fix these things instead of wasting them.
Software engineering is a complex skill requiring a lot from the engineers engaged in it. It isn't the only process which fits this description. To get the best from them you need to understand a lot about your people, how to get the best from them, how to setup the organisation, what does and doesn't work in different cultured. I have worked in many countries from the far east to America, from the frozen north of Finland to the heat of India. The people are as different as the countries and you will need to adjust your style depending on who you are working with, this course contains tips on this. I have managed small projects with just a couple of people to hundreds on multi million pound multi year programs, maintaining motivation over such things depends on many things and I can show you a good number of them. Coping with the demand to know 'when will it be ready' is a skill in its own, how do you estimate, how do you predict, what do you do when someone wants it quicker. There are different techniques for management of projects - 'waterfall', 'v-model', 'spiral', 'agile' to cover a few, what are the differences, what are the advantages and disadvantages of each, how to choose the right one for your project and organisation. Reporting, not just pretty graphs but how to find out the TRUTH so you know what to say and don't look a fool in a months (or even an hours) time.
This course is more about teaching you how to engineer and how a computer actually works than it is about the languages. All computer software engineering follows similar principles and I have 40 years of engineering things from your mobile phone to the aircraft you fly in. Besides the software you will learn about computers - how they work, the history and background, the uses being made of them (far more than most people think). This background is not just for fun but it is to help understand the whys and whats of what we do. You will learn about: security - how to thwart the hackers by doing your code the right way. security in terms of signing and encryption of data both in the computer and between computers. safety critical systems like automotive control data processing strengths and weaknesses of some languages and approaches cloud up and coming trends such as 'codeless' programming and 'artificial intelligence' web pages and web backends

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.

Amine

Mathematics (Applied Math, Calculus, Linear Algebra, Geometry, IBM Exams, Entrance Exams): Primary/High School/Bachelor/Master Students
Mathematics 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!

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.

My goal is to help my students progress and succeed in their exams. So that they can overcome their difficulties, I provide them with effective educational support, on an ad hoc basis or throughout the school year. Concretely, I analyze my student's profile then identify their gaps and/or difficulties to finally implement tailor-made methodologies. My teaching is aimed at students from 6th to 12th grade, all sectors combined. I assure you that with weekly monitoring and the right methods you will make progress!

Zhasmin
GCSE Chemistry, Biology and Maths Masterclass - Ace your GCSEs!
While I am passionate about my subjects, I understand that not everyone is ecstatic about studying. There's no point teaching simultaneous equations to a struggling student if it isn't on the GCSE Maths Foundation syllabus! Depending on grade that the student is aiming for/predicted I will: ●spend the first lesson with students going through their exam board syllabus, make it explicit what content is the core of the course content and structure lessons in descending importance ● (for higher level students) spend the first lesson with students going through their exam board syllabus, identify the weakest links and structure lessons in ascending order of skill I believe in spaced repetition so revisiting topics taught before is a must! This will manifest in the form of: ●surprise questions during the first 10 minutes of lessons ●helping prepare and working through past papers when it comes closer to exam time to encourage active recall. During normal lessons, there will be a mix of: ●theoretical teaching ●helping the student digest, understand and store useful information that has been presented ●visual aspects (diagrams) In order for students to efficiently absorb knowledge, I will teach one core topic per lesson. Top Tip if you want to get the most from me: Ask questions! I aim to have a friendly environment in lessons, I am not your teacher - I am your helper!
