I am currently completing a dual Master’s degree at MIT in Electrical Engineering & Computer Science and Technology & Policy, following a Bachelor’s in Mathematics and Physics from École Polytechnique, where I graduated with honors. My academic training is deeply quantitative, with a strong foundation in calculus, linear algebra, probability, differential equations, and physics. I have applied this background through research in quantum information science, numerical modeling, and experimental physics, which has strengthened both my problem-solving skills and my ability to explain complex concepts clearly. I was also awarded the FAWCO Foundation Scholarship for Women in STEM.
I have over three years of tutoring experience in mathematics and physics, working with high school students in both one-on-one and online settings. In these sessions, I have helped students significantly improve their performance, including raising grades by up to 20%. My teaching approach focuses on building intuition first—ensuring students understand the “why” behind concepts—before moving to structured problem-solving and exam preparation. I provide targeted practice materials and strategies to build both competence and confidence.
In addition to individual tutoring, I have taught in broader educational contexts. Through an MIT outreach program, I taught introductory quantum mechanics to > 150 high school students in South Africa and Botswana. I have also mentored students in mathematics competitions in France and supported peers in university-level coursework. These experiences have allowed me to work with a wide range of ages and learning styles, across classroom, small-group, and individualized settings.
My goal as a tutor is not only to help students succeed academically, but to help them develop confidence and ownership over the material. I believe that with strong fundamentals and clear guidance, subjects like math and physics can become both accessible and engaging.
