“It really helped me with math, solving equations,” says Eden, 13, in the middle of a discussion with Loïc. For supervisors, these tutorials bring their share of satisfaction. “It’s a way for me to explore and deepen my values : the search for excellence and cultural openness which have always been at the center of my life”, says Loïc.
Noting the daily evolution of middle school students is rewarding for the tutors. “Often, girls tell me that they are bad at maths. When they come with their good grades, it’s great,” says Emma, 21.Â
For Léa, also an M1 student, the commitment has a personal resonance: “I was in the Cordée de la success. This allowed me to have a very selective license“, she says. By committing to Objectif Réussite, she gives, after having herself received.
Beyond work, the system is exciting for middle school students. “We get along well with everyone. There’s no problem here. We can forget what’s going on outside,” confides Eden, smiling from ear to ear. It is also an opportunity to meet friends outside of your class. “For example, Wassim and I met during tutoring,” said the young girl, pointing to her neighbor at the table, focused on learning her irregular verbs.
