Life and Earth Sciences · Première (second year of lycée)
The life and earth sciences speciality in Première (the second year of lycée) calls for a real step up in rigour: genetics and mutations, cell division, the dynamics of the lithosphere, ecosystems and the immune system. Assessments rely on scientific problems to be solved from documents, and on an organised account of what students know. Students who chose the speciality must decide at the end of the year whether to keep it in Terminale.

For the Première speciality, a tutor comfortable with both biology and geology avoids sacrificing half the curriculum.

The curriculum
Following the chromosomes through each division and understanding genetic mixing takes diagrams redrawn several times. It is often the chapter where students fall behind.
Many students neglect it in favour of biology. Yet it makes up a significant share of the assessments.
At the end of Première, one speciality has to be dropped. Solid results in life and earth sciences make it possible to choose according to one’s plans, not one’s marks.
Rates
The rate shown is the final price paid by the family, NOEO commission included. It varies from tutor to tutor, and nothing is added on top: no application fee, no matching fee, no service fee.

School success and study choices
To make progress with SVT (Life and Earth Sciences) private tutoring at lycée, learning the course is necessary but not sufficient. The student must be able to use their knowledge to explain a mechanism, analyse scientific documents, connect several scales and build a reasoned answer. A private tutor is most useful when they pinpoint exactly what is blocking: poorly memorised knowledge, imprecise vocabulary, superficial reading of documents or difficulty organising the reasoning. Effective work therefore alternates active memorisation, explaining mechanisms, data analysis, diagrams and synthesis exercises. In the SVT specialty, this method also prepares for both parts of the bac: the written exam and the assessment of experimental skills.
Private tutoring
A student’s progress is not measured by their marks alone. You need to track over time their understanding, their independence, their recurring errors, their consistency and their ability to succeed at comparable tasks with less and less help.
Methods and revision
Active recall means retrieving information from memory, without looking at your notes, and then checking your answers. It is a more effective method than simple rereading for long-term memorisation. To use it well, you need to space out recall sessions and use your mistakes to target the gaps.
Frequently asked questions
Meiosis and genetic mixing, followed by the geology of the lithosphere. These are the ones the tutor returns to most often in sessions.
By alternating summary diagrams, vocabulary sheets and document-based exercises. Testing oneself regularly fixes the mechanisms better than rereading them.
Above all according to the study plan: health, biology and the environment often require it. The tutor can help assess strengths and the gaps to close.
Yes: the tutor works from the current chapter and the upcoming assessments, while consolidating what was not understood earlier.
