Hi! I'm Stephanie, a passionate and dedicated tutor specializing in Chemistry, Physics, Biology, and French for students of all levels, including GCSE and A-level. My approach combines clear explanations, interactive lessons, and relatable, real-world examples to spark curiosity and build confidence. Together, we'll break down challenging topics, ensuring you achieve your academic goals while truly enjoying the learning experience. Let’s make learning exciting and unlock your full potential! I hold a Bachelor’s degree in Medical Laboratory Sciences and Molecular Genetics from Saint Joseph University of Beirut (USJ), which provided me with deep expertise in Biology, Chemistry, and health-related sciences. Following my passion for data-driven analysis and technology, I pursued a Master’s degree in Business Analytics from the American University of Beirut (AUB). This blend of science, analytics, and languages enables me to effectively teach Chemistry, Physics, Biology, and French, ensuring clarity, depth, and practical understanding in each subject.

I have worked as a lecturer at De Montfort University for over 15 years. I hold a PGCE in further Education, an MA in English Language Teaching, and a BA honours in English. I taught English for Academic Purposes at university. This enabled me to develop various teaching approaches at different levels of English usage. I have also taught KS3-KS5 in the UK and abroad during which I have been observed several times and demonstrated that I was outstanding. I have used various teaching aids ranging from pictures, flash cards, to a variety of IT techniques. I have also used peer interaction and assessment to develop learners. Teaching at university enabled me to teach presentation skills. This has enabled me to do the same during training, coaching and mentoring sessions with colleagues. I have mentored a number of tutors. In my experience as a university lecturer I have used a variety of online platforms to teach students during the Covid-19 pandemic. I began my journey into English in 2002 when I did a BA (hons) in English at Demontfort university. Following this I did an MA in Children’s Literature in 2005 due to my immense love of reading. However, it was only when I landed a job at a resources centre that I decided to specialize in teaching and so I did a PGCE in education and an MA in English language teaching both in 2007-2009. I absolutely love teaching since then - as cliche as it sounds it is truly my passion and the most rewarding thing I’ve ever done. I love my students and to see them excel truly makes me content. I’ve been told that I have a gift for building a rapport with learners and I to feel this is something that comes naturally to me because as a student I myself struggled with being misunderstood and branded as a ‘bad student’. I feel as a result I can relate to students and their struggles more easily. I’m also very patient and an excellent listener.
