(7 student reviews)

Hi,

I am a qualified tutor and I am here to help you improve your English skills. I have been tutoring for 9 years. My absolute passion in life is teaching and every student (child, teenager, adult, ESL students) that I have worked with has improved dramatically. I make the learning process interesting. Please read my student reviews and you will see the difference a good tutor makes. You will get results. I have helped hundreds of students improve their grades and gain confidence. No assignment is too hard to tackle. I have tutored General Managers, tertiary students with essay help, dyslexic students who struggle with putting their clear ideas into clear English.

Help is at hand.

If you require a quick edit on your original piece of writing, or essay help, I can assist you by email. I am very quick to respond. Email editing help is only $35 per hour.

For tutoring weekly, you will see solid progress. My teaching style incorporates a multi-learning approach. In our first session, I will establish your learning style and conduct an English test. Knowing your learning style (there are three ways we learn) makes a huge difference to school, work and beyond.

The English test is a quick quiz. I can discover your weakness and we tackle those first. On-going, step by step support in spelling, grammar, writing or comprehension will give you the most benefit. Many of my long term students have been on my programme for 1-2 years and even moved countries and still we maintain a weekly tutor session by Skype.

My lessons are innovative and fun. I am a patient, kind and engaging teacher with a good sense of humour. I teach you all the tips and tricks and get you practising.

I am specially trained in working with dyslexic students. I teach a step-by-step programme using phonics which builds a lasting foundation. Using phonic principles and explaining how sounds and words go together will decode English in an easy and understandable way.

Meeting Place: I offer private tutoring sessions in real time on Skype. I can help with assignments, essays, writing techniques and ESL support with conversational English and practical English lessons.

My promise to you is always to provide you with invaluable feedback and action steps for improvement week by week.

I look forward to hearing from you.

Best regards,

Stephanie Brookes

Experience

9 years tutoring an age range from 5 years to 45 years. I have taught General Managers, who struggle with email correspondence and general writing, all the way through to early learners who had a need for solid phonic principles and a good foundation. Most of my students are elementary and high school level, plus I tutor university students (many of which are ESL). Whether its adult learning, business and management up-skilling required, help for dyslexic students, I can tailor a programme to suit you. I even tutored a student who lost her ability to read and write after a car accident (and she made excellent progress with my 3 month programme). I hold a TESOL Certificate, Quantam Phonics Certificate and a Fundamentals of English Certificate (University of Qld). I have strong skills in ESL teaching methods, which are highly effective. Please contact me.
