Baptiste

Hello, I`m Baptiste. Originally from the UK, France and Japan, I`ve had a diverse upbringing. In 2017, I accepted my place to the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (Boston, USA), but deferred it for 2018 because I passionately believe in the merits of a gap year. In my spare time when I`m not tutoring, I develop mobile apps, especially for rowing - a sport that I participate in competitively.

Availability: I am free any time for Skype/webcam lessons.

Free any time except Sundays for in-person lessons, although this may get booked up with tutees.

Willing to travel: 3 miles

Experience: I passed the 11+ entrance tests for Westminster School, Haberdasher`s, Highgate, City of London, Queen Elizabeth Boys and UCS. I chose to go to Westminster School. There, I achieved 10 A*`s. As I approached my A-Levels, I started helping my siblings with GCSE work. I achieved 4 A*`s for A-Level, in Maths, Further Maths, Physics and Chinese.

Over the last 3 years, I have done some private tutoring, both over Skype and from my home. I have cumulatively given over 400 hours of Maths lessons (primary school, 11+, GCSE, and A-Level), as well as 200 hours of English lessons (primary school), 150 hours of Physics (primary, GCSE, A-Level/Pre-U), and 100 hours of programming lessons. I have recently started tutoring Computer Science and coding.

When I was 17 years old, I volunteered 2 hours every week for a year at St Vincent de Paul, a local primary school. I taught Maths and Computer Science in my own class to 12 year old students. I firmly believe in the learn by doing methodology, which I always try to use throughout my teaching, regardless of whether that`s Computer Science or Physics.
