About Fabrice
My name is Fabrice, and I am a Master of Science graduate in Electrical Engineering and Information Technology from TU Darmstadt. With over eight years of hands-on experience in industrial automation, PLC programming, and software development, I bring both deep technical knowledge and a passion for teaching. I have worked on complex automation projects in leading companies, and I enjoy sharing my expertise with students and professionals alike. I am patient, clear in my explanations, and fully committed to helping my students achieve real understanding and lasting success.

As an experienced automation engineer with a strong academic and industrial background, I offer structured and hands-on PLC programming lessons designed to meet the individual needs of each learner.
My teaching method
My approach is practical, clear, and adaptable. I begin by assessing the student’s current level and goals, then build a tailored learning path using real-world examples and industry-relevant tools (such as TIA Portal, CODESYS, and Beckhoff TwinCAT). I emphasize understanding core concepts like IEC 61131-3, FSMs, and control logic before diving into hands-on implementation.
A typical lesson
Each session is structured in three parts:
Concept Overview – A short explanation of the theory (e.g., state machines, timers, data blocks)
Practical Application – Step-by-step programming exercises in the relevant environment
Review & Q&A – Clarifying doubts and reinforcing concepts through discussion or small quizzes
What sets me apart
8+ years of real-world industry experience in automation and software development
In-depth knowledge of PLC platforms, SCADA systems, and standards like MTP/POL
Strong ability to explain complex topics in a simple, student-friendly way
Experience mentoring university students, professionals, and apprentices alike
Who my lessons are for
Engineering students (Bachelor/Master level) needing help with automation, PLCs, or control systems
Apprentices in mechatronics or electrical engineering
Technicians and professionals preparing for certification or improving their skills in TIA Portal, Structured Text, or Ladder Logic
Anyone curious about industrial automation and real-world PLC programming
Let’s make automation concepts not just understandable, but truly applicable!
