Information About Fabrice:


Personal Description:

Hi, I'm Fabrice. I'm originally from France, where I began my postgraduate studies before continuing in Argentina, eventually earning an MSc in Computer Science in Barcelona, Spain. I now call the United Kingdom home.

Fluent in French, Spanish & English, I'm a software engineer by trade but I wish to start tutoring math as well because I believe it would make better use of my talent for explaining complicated things to people.

I'm new to professional tutoring but I love the idea of helping people learn. I'm also super friendly, patient and empathetic by nature.

To prepare for tutoring, I've been studying the psychology of learning and evidence-based teaching methods through Craig Barton's famous book "How I Wish I'd Taught Maths: Lessons learned from research, conversations with experts, and 12 years of mistakes") which I'm eager to put into practice.



Teaching Experience:

I have experience tutoring GCSE maths through one-on-one sessions, working with a variety of students including family members and children of friends. I've helped them understand core concepts and guided them through targeted practice to improve their skills.



Tutoring Approach:

I'll be following the general format below, making adjustments as needed depending on the student:

• Welcome chat & Outline of topics we'll cover (5 min)
• Recap concepts from previous session (10-15 min)
• Introduction of a new core concept (10-15 min)
• Supervised practice (10-15 min)
• Unsupervised practice (10-15 min)
• Review (5 min)
• Setting homework + wrap-up (5 min)

Primary resources used: CGP + Edexcel complete revision guides
