Stephanie

Professional yet enthusiastic teacher of English, Maths, Entrance and state exams (Primary - GCSE). I love teaching and I often find my exuberance is catching!

I boost student confidence and ability through friendly, patient and enthusiastic one-to-one tutoring.
Students enjoy their tutorials with me and want to learn creating focus on areas that my students need development and support in. I boost their confidence, and in turn their ability, through friendly, patient and enthusiastic one-to-one tutoring which gently challenges them. By working one-to-one I cover topics at the speed appropriate to the individual. This tailor-made approach is about ensuring my students have fun with their learning and feel empowered to discover new things, to believe in themselves, which encourages the desire to continue learning.

Whether you are looking for beginners English, examination preparation and guidance, the nuances needed to write your thesis, or somewhere in between, I have the resources and support you need to be successful.
