About

A teacher shaped by France's Preparatory Classes.

Qualified engineerPrivate tutor

A former science Preparatory-Class student and qualified Engineer, now an independent private tutor. I know from the inside what the competitive exams demand: method, rigour and mindset.

With the right method you can learn anything: I reached a C1 level in Russian, entirely self-taught. That is the method I pass on.

I also teach French to English and Russian speakers, on its own site: Cours Descartes.

I am also listed among the experts of the Institut franco-russe.

Trust

Why you can trust me

The reviews of my students, published on Trustpilot — where I can neither edit them nor take them down.

“Antony is a highly qualified person who helped me all the way through. I strongly recommend him.”
— Tristan, 27 August 2026 · Read it on Trustpilot

Translated from French.

“I was preparing for my entrance exams with him, in maths, and honestly I was a 100% humanities person before that. […] Antony doesn't just solve the exercises for you: he explains the hardest things until they become obvious. For the first time I had a whole picture of the subject in my head instead of a mush of formulas. I walked into the exam with no fear at all.”

Translated from Russian; the original is on Trustpilot.

“I worked on maths with Antony. He explains calmly, goes over it again until it is clear, and gives a method for tackling the exercises. I am far more comfortable in tests now.”

Guidance session

Choose the right path, with confidence.

Preparatory Class or University? Which one, which school, which strategy? A frank, concrete one-to-one with someone who went through a Preparatory Class into a Top Engineering School.

And it starts early: the right High School and the right Specialities already lay the foundations.

For whom: middle-schoolers, high-schoolers and families unsure about their science path. For primary school, the conversation is rather about the foundations to secure before secondary school.

Aiming for engineering

Think like an Engineer

Three principles I pass on to every student who aims high.

01

Understand, don't recite

You only truly remember what you have understood. Look for the “why” before the “how”.

02

Consistency beats talent

30 minutes a day beats 4 hours the night before the test. The brain learns over time, not in a rush.

03

Redo it alone, without the solution

You don't progress by reading a solution — you progress by redoing the exercise alone.

FAQ

Everything you need to know

Online or in person?

Both. Online everywhere via Zoom, or in person depending on availability — same quality of follow-up.

Is the first contact free?

Yes. The first 20-minute exchange is free and without commitment.

Which levels and subjects?

From primary school to the final year: Maths, Physics-Chemistry, Engineering Science and Computer Science. For those aiming at a Preparatory Class, I add particularly demanding exercises.

How does a lesson work?

We tackle the sticking points, redo exercises together, and I leave a clear method to apply between sessions.

Can we stop whenever we want?

Yes. No minimum commitment: we move forward session by session.

Several lessons? Is there a discount?

Yes: −10% for a 10-hour package, −15% for 20 hours. Consistency is what makes a student progress.

How does payment work?

Payment is made by bank transfer, against an invoice issued before the lesson.

Any special equipment needed online?

No. A computer or tablet with internet is enough. I handle the rest: shared whiteboard, materials and exercises sent after each session.

Support during holidays or before an exam?

Yes. We can step up the pace before the Brevet, the Bac or a competitive exam, with focused intensive sessions.
