Grégoire - Bethnal Green tutor






Information About Grégoire:


Personal Description:

I am French, and I am currently finishing an MSc in Economic History at the London School of Economics. I have lived in England for 7 years now, 3 years between the age of six and nine, and three years between 18 and 21 doing a BA in Contemporary History and Political Sciences at Sussex University in Brighton, which I completed with a 1st class degree. I was in an international school in France, and took the French Scientific Baccalaurat ("mention bien", equivalent to Honors) as well as A-Lavels in English Literature and History and Geography (both with an A). I also have a Masters degree in Development Economics from Sciences Po Paris (the number one social sciences school in France).



Teaching Experience:

I have taught Maths and English to french pupils in secondary school a few years ago. I have not taught since.

Nonetheless, studying at University and following high level seminars has given me a good idea on how different topics must be taught in different ways, for instance having clear, comprehensive and numerous exercises works well to learn absolute sciences such as maths or languages, whereas history requires much more personal work from the student to allow him to him to develop his opinions while the tutor should provide a methodological framework.



Tutoring Approach:

I believe each student has different needs, different weak and strong points, learns in a personal way and thus needs a personalized teaching when possible. It is important to excite the student's curiosity about a topic rather than force the knowledge into him, which in the long run will disgust him of this topic and prevent him from learning it thoroughly. A warm and friendly environment always help as well, and I believe I can provide just that.
