In 2019, I passed the French “Agrégation” (highly selective competitive examination for civil service in the French public education system) with a major in mathematics and a minor in computer science.

During my PhD, I also had various teaching opportunities listed below.

Teaching assistant

Since 2020, I have been serving as teaching assistant in the “CDIS” course at École des Mines de Paris, providing exercise sessions, numerical projects, in-depth supplements on selected extra-curricular topics and tutoring hours. This course is aimed at first-year students at École des Mines (equivalent to the last year of a bachelor degree) and covers topology, differential calculus, integration theory, differential equations and probability theory.

  • 2022-2023: 18 hours.
  • 2021-2022: 64 hours.
  • 2020-2021: 64 hours.

Internship supervision

I co-supervised (with my PhD advisor Pierre Rouchon) students from École des Mines de Paris during their “Trimestre Recherche” (three month research internship for first-year master students).

  • 2021-2022: (one intern) Well-posedness and convergence properties of a nonlinear differential equation in dimension 4, corresponding to a semi-classical model of a cat-qubit coupled to a dissipative reservoir and subject to various noise sources. This internship built upon the results of the two interns we supervised during the previous year.
  • 2020-2021: (two interns, working together) Development of a semi-classical model describing the evolution of a so-called cat-qubit in the limit where its state can be approximated with a coherent state of light. Numerical assessment of the validity of the model by comparison to a full quantum model based on Lindblad master equations.

Miscellaneous

March 2021: “Journées Liesse”. Co-supervision (3 hours) of a numerical project on differential equations for teachers from higher school preparatory classes invited at École des Mines to be trained on new subjects introduced in their curriculum.
