Balthazar C.

FR:

Balthazar est titulaire d’un doctorat en mathématiques et informatique fondamentale, ainsi que de deux maîtrises — l’une en cryptographie, l’autre en didactique des mathématiques — de l’Université Paris-Saclay, en France. Il est également professeur agrégé de mathématiques, une distinction hautement sélective dans le système éducatif français.

Il possède une solide expérience de l’enseignement, tant à l’université qu’en classes préparatoires aux grandes écoles, où il a accompagné des étudiants dans des contextes académiques exigeants. Il a aussi enseigné à des élèves de niveaux variés, y compris dans un cadre de remise à niveau ou de soutien plus personnalisé.

Ses domaines de compétence vont des mathématiques du secondaire et de l’initiation à la programmation, jusqu’à des sujets universitaires plus avancés : algèbre linéaire, analyse, logique, algorithmes… Son parcours alliant mathématiques pures et appliquées lui permet de s’adapter aux objectifs et besoins de chaque élève : réussir un examen, revoir les bases ou approfondir un sujet plus complexe.

Parfaitement bilingue, Balthazar propose des cours en français ou en anglais. Il enseigne de manière claire, structurée et bienveillante, et aime accompagner ses élèves dans la construction de leur confiance et de leur autonomie.

ENG:

Balthazar holds a PhD in Mathematics and Fundamental Computer Science, as well as Master’s degrees in Cryptography and in Mathematics Education from Université Paris-Saclay, France. He is also a certified professeur agrégé, one of the most selective academic distinctions in the French national education system.

Balthazar has extensive teaching experience at the university level and in the French classes préparatoires system, which prepares students for competitive entrance exams to top engineering schools. He has also worked with students of various backgrounds and skill levels, including those seeking support in more foundational mathematics.

His areas of expertise range from high school mathematics and programming to advanced undergraduate-level topics such as linear algebra, calculus, logic, and algorithms. His academic background in both pure and applied mathematics allows him to adapt his explanations to the needs of each student—whether they aim to pass an exam, catch up on core concepts, or explore advanced topics.

Fluent in both English and French, Balthazar offers tutoring in either language. His teaching style is clear, structured, and patient, and he enjoys helping students build confidence and autonomy in their learning.

Jonah P-B

FR: Jonah étudie présentement en génie aérospatial à l’École Polytechnique de Montréal. Avant cela, il a étudié en sciences de la santé au collège Jean-de-Brébeuf. Il a des connaissances approfondies des programmes de physique et de mathématique du secondaire au CÉGEP que ce soit l’algèbre, le calcul différentiel et intégral, la statique ou la mécanique.

Parmi, ses expériences précédentes, il a fait du tutorat pour ses pairs à partir du secondaire, où il les a aidé dans les matières plus difficiles pour eux. Il a aussi de l’expérience en éducation spécialisé, ce qui lui a permis de développer sa patience et sa douceur.

Sa méthode d’enseignement est centrée sur la compréhension des besoins individuels de chaque étudiant et il essaye de rendre des problèmes complexes plus accessibles avec des explications claires et des exemples concrets.

ENG: Jonah is an aerospace engineering student at Polytechnique Montreal. He attended CEGEP at Brebeuf where he studied health sciences. He has in-depth knowledge of the maths and physics curriculums from high school up to CEGEP from algebra and calculus to statics and mechanics.

His previous experiences include peer tutoring both at High School and CEGEP, where he helped his peers excel in areas in which they were lacking.

His tutoring philosophy is centered on understanding the individual learning needs of students and making complex concepts relatable with easily understandable explanations that relate to concrete situations.

Augustin P.

Augustin is a recent graduate (with distinction) from Concordia University with a Bachelor of Science in Honours Psychology. After completing his honours thesis on the neurobiology of opioid addiction, he is eager to apply his knowledge and passion for science through teaching.

He is passionate about an interdisciplinary approach to science and research. In the past he has worked as a personal tutor for students with learning difficulties (SEGPA) at the Externat des Enfants Nantais high school (EDEN) in France. Having studied in three different school systems and lived in multiple countries he understands diverse perspectives, teaching styles. He also recognizes the challenges that come with learning in a second language.

His approach to teaching is focused on nourishing curiosity, imagination and intrinsic interest in the student. He sees that difficulty can often arise from the apparent dryness and irrelevance of concepts that students begin to be confronted with at the end of high school and CEGEP. He emphasizes the logic behind equations and methods rather than focusing on memorization. With the emphasis he places on linking knowledge across classes he aims to foster an understanding of science as a unified discipline. This approach not only facilitates learning and memorization but also helps reduce workload.

He is fully fluent in both French and English, proactive and committed to offering different perspectives that enhance course content and student engagement.
