Axiom Academic, tuition for expats
Trusted tutoring agency since 2016, Axiom Academic connects expatriate families worldwide with carefully selected, native French and English-speaking private tutors in all subjects, with a thorough knowledge of the French, IB and British curricula.
An essential tutoring solution for expat families, the agency consists of educational advisors who guide families and recommend the teachers best suited to their needs, as well as teachers who themselves come from an expat background and are in the same time zone as the student.
With over 3,000 teachers, Axiom Academic supports students in French secondary schools and international schools throughout their education.
Axiom Academic, now available in over 50 cities, is your partner of choice for providing the tutoring your children need from primary school to sixth form, both at home and online.
Meriem Draman has been an independent educational guidance counsellor since January 2019, specialising in the French education system (collège, lycée, post-baccalaureate courses).
She lives in Istanbul and, thanks to the magic of the internet, works with students from all over the world.
In a previous life, she was a physics and chemistry teacher for about ten years and is currently on career break from the Ministry of Education.
As part of its business, it mainly offers two services:
- The career guidance assessment for young people from Year 10 up to the first year of higher education.
The careers guidance assessment is a short, three-session support programme that helps students get to know themselves better—in other words, to identify their skills, strengths, priorities and professional interests so they can choose the right post-secondary education track for their profile, as well as the various fields of activity in which they are most likely to thrive and therefore succeed.
- The Parcoursup guidance process for final-year high school students, students looking to change direction, and French pupils not enrolled in the French education system.
The end-to-end Parcoursup guidance takes place over 4 to 6 sessions and ensures students feel guided, advised, supported and reassured throughout the entire Parcoursup registration process: from the strategic selection of the 10 choices right through to writing personal statements, including the initial creation of the application file.

- A Facebook group where you can share your experience with over 16,000 expat parents in more than 120 countries
- One Facebook page where you will find articles and information concerning issues related to family expatriation

Homeschooling during expatriation with CEDRE France
CEDRE France is a collective composed of three distance learning schools: EIB à distance, Hattemer Academy and Cours Sainte-Anne. For families looking for an alternative or a complement to the traditional school system, CEDRE France offers distance learning that meets at least the expectations of the French national education system and adapts to the specific needs of pupils through a tailor-made approach (full schooling, partial schooling, revision programmes, etc.).
Why choose homeschooling during your expatriation?
- Distance learning is accessible everywhere and at any time: enrolment is possible at any time of the year, and learning materials are just a click away or arrive straight through your letterbox.
- A wide choice of subjects: as complete courses, or as a supplement to reinforce one or more subjects.
- No time constraints: you can organise your time entirely as you wish while benefiting from invaluable educational support.
- Rigorous, high-quality teaching: you have comprehensive programmes specifically designed for independent study (structured materials, assignments to be submitted for grading, regular contact with the teaching team, issuance of transcripts and report cards, etc.).
- Return to France made easy: children maintain a link with the French education system during their time abroad.
