Abstract
In this paper, we propose a new method of hybrid type, for non-linear second order BVPs, to overcome some drawbacks of classic difference finite methods. An estimation of the local and global error is also given. Numerical tests on BVPs which is well known in the literature confirm the accuracy of the theoretical results.
