Information About Stephanie

Personal Description: Salut, bonjour, hola! I am currently teaching French and Spanish in a high school in Fife. Being half Swiss (bi-lingual english, swiss german), I have a great passion for travelling and foreign countries, so I love sharing my experiences and language skills with others. I have really enjoyed several placements in various schools and have knowledge of the current curriculum. I am young, enthusiastic and have fresh ideas!

Tutoring Experience: In my year abroad, I worked as an English language assistant in Paris, France, in a business school working with students of around the ages of 16-24, which was great to work with a age group closer to my own. I also tutored english to age groups from 7-15. After 4 years of studying French with Spanish , I have had the opportunity to work with age groups from primary school to high school. In my last placement, I had the responsibility of 5 classes a week from S1-5. It was a great experience to collect materials and resources and become part of the school community.

Tutoring Approach: I find one to one the best way to learn a language. It gives the student a chance to really improve in conversation skills, as well as feel comfortable to ask for explanations.I find speaking the target language is key to learning to language, and by using a variety of medias, I try to incorporate activities for writing, reading, listening and speaking in ways which will suit the students interests at the right level.

From Lynne (4/5): (A-Level Spanish) Really enjoyed Stephanie's tutoring although we only managed to have 3 sessions. she was able to give me very usefull relevant informantion about the course I am studying and we were able to cover areas that I felt I as weakest on. What's more Steph always made the effort to text me any vocabulary that she didnt know in the lesson later that day which I thought was just great! I would recommend steph as a tutor as she has definitely helped me in the few lessons we have had together. thankyou First Tutors!

From Steven (5/5): (GCSE French) My daughter has had 3 hours tuition so far with Stephanie and has enjoyed it very much.
After her first hour she commented that she had learned more in an hour with Stephanie than she had at school in a month! On top of this she had fun which is a minor miracle from a self confessed French hater!
The teaching seems to be modern in style using magazines, games and computer rather than the usual dull lazy teaching techniques employed by her school. Early days but delighted so far.
