Private tutor in Perth, Australia
Education
I'm Stephanie, private and small group tutor with 4 years experience tutoring students in English, Drama, Media Studies and Psychology. I specialize in essay writing and Year 11-12 exam preparation, and have seen more than a dozen students through their final years in high school to tertiary education. I offer one-on-one sessions, small group sessions and seasonal Study Skills seminars and Exam Prep workshops. My focus is on building essential skills that are transferable between subjects and from the classroom to the exam room, supporting students to think independently and write confidently. Some of these skills include: - Interpreting questions - Engaging directly with curriculum content - Streamlining ideas and creating a cohesive argument/P.O.V. - Creating structure in all written work - Self-editing - Time management I also have experience working with drama students in preparation for their practical exams, running sessions to help them workshop their Scripted Monologues and write/prepare their Original Solo Performances.
