Tutoring done…differently
Meet fool #1
(your tutor)
Salut! I’m Maël.
I’ve spent over a decade working at the intersection of foreign languages, humanities, and academic strategy. My career has taken me from university lecture halls in France to the NYC corporate world as a Marketing Director.
But now I’ve been released back into my natural habitat: teaching high school students with learning differences.
After school, I run Clever Fool Coaching to offer targeted, high-impact support beyond the school day. I combine high-level academic rigor—across Foreign Languages, Literature, Psychology, and Writing—with practical executive function strategies.
Together, we build smart, personalized systems that turn overwhelming schoolwork into manageable, lasting confidence.
The T.R.A.P Method
☻
Tailored Motivation
I’ve never had a lazy student because I build custom learning strategies around their interests. Using interactive and high-energy lesson plans, I ensure that my students look forward to their next session.
❋
Real-World Application
Say adiós to boring lectures and bonjour to fun. By framing language learning around interactive mechanics, students dive into real-world application without even realizing how hard they’re working.
✦
Adaptive Pacing
Shifting levels instantly to match your student’s unique processing speed, executive function needs, and cognitive growth so they stay challenged but never overwhelmed.
