CFA® Level I tutoring over video with a charterholder
The curriculum is not the problem.
You can read everything, work every evening, and on exam day tick the true option that does not answer the question. We practise in the exam format from week one.You read all ten subjects, you work every evening, and three weeks before the exam you are stressed because you have barely done any real questions. On exam day you tick the true option that does not answer the question. That is what we take care of: you practise in the exam format from the first week, and my course space shows me the traps you fall into before the exam does.
No card. Then we talk for 20 minutes if you want to keep going.
The Level I course space is complete and open today.

The exam format
An easy question, and one option that is true but does not answer it.
Under the indirect method, depreciation is added back to net income most likely because it:
- Ais an operating expensetrue, off topic
- Breduced net income without using cashprecise
- Creduces cash from operationsa trap
It's the most common trap at Level I. The course space teaches you to spot it in seconds, because you'll have met it a hundred times before exam day.
The real risk
They tell you it takes 300 hours. They never tell you which ones.
Most candidates spend 60% of their hours reading. With me you read less, you practise in the exam format from week one, and you fix what your map flags.Reading is comfortable, and it pays very little on exam day: the exam does not ask you to recite, it asks you to answer quickly questions built to trap you. With me you read less, you practise in the exam format from the first week, and a quarter of your time goes into fixing what your skills map flags. You will probably still do the same 300 hours. You and I will know at any moment where they go.
What most candidates do with their 300 hours
What I make you do with yours
The split of hours is what I see in class.
Your online course space
Your course space, in five points.
You learn, interactively
Short chapters where you touch everything. Every formula reads in words, in symbols and in numbers. Every definition opens a picture. The curves, you move them yourself.
La convexity d'une obligation explique pourquoi deux titres de même duration ne réagissent pas pareil.
Convexity
The curvature of the relationship between a bond price and its yield. The stronger it is, the more the price rises when yields fall, and the less it falls when they rise.
Tap the word, the curve appears
Drag the yield
You practise without noticing
In every chapter you answer exam format questions while you learn, in English, corrected and explained right away. By the end of the chapter you have already practised. Full mocks come next, and every answer is corrected straight away.
Under the indirect method, depreciation is added back to net income most likely because it:
- Ais an operating expensetrue, off topic
- Breduced net income without using cashprecise
- Creduces cash from operationsa trap
Corrected straight away, each one explained.
You track your skills
Every answer is linked to a precise skill in the curriculum. Your map tells you what is solid, fragile or critical, and your week plan is rebuilt from there. You stop revising everything the same way, you go straight to what costs you points, and you move faster.

An AI that adapts the course to you
At Level I it reads every answer, ties it to your skills map, and adapts what comes next. It never writes for you, and you can switch it off.
Your answer
×Depreciation is added back to net income because it is an operating expense.
It answers you, at your level
True, but that is not the reason. We add it back because it reduced net income without any cash leaving. Tell me: does depreciation move cash?
Then another question on the same skill, to check it has stuck.
A no AI mode switches everything off, to practise like on exam day.
The session with me
One hour a month, you and me, on what really blocks you. I arrive already knowing where you lose points, I explain on my slides shown on your screen, you practise in front of me, and you leave with the point unblocked.
The balance sheet, line by line
You see the same slide as me, at the same moment, with no screen sharing. I talk it through, you can go back.
I draw, you see
A diagram, a curve, a calculation worked by hand on the slide, live, and it stays in the session.

Pourquoi le goodwill n'est jamais amorti
Sa durée de vie n'est pas déterminable. On ne l'étale donc pas : on vérifie chaque année qu'il vaut encore ce qu'il a coûté.
A slide made for you, right now
Stuck on a point? I generate an explanation slide on that exact point, during the session.

« Time flies in his classes. The material comes alive, and the explanations always land exactly right. »
« Really effective preparation. Straight to the point, difficult notions become simple, and not a minute is wasted. I gained confidence at every step. »
« Everything is illustrated, nothing stays abstract. You understand the why behind every answer, not just the rule. »
