Stacie - Cardiff tutor






Information About Stacie:


Personal Description:

I have recently moved to Cardiff from Brisbane, Australia. I completed my Bachelor of Criminology and Criminal Justice at Griffith University, Brisbane. Additionally, I studied Japanese through high school and the first few years of university.



Teaching Experience:

While studying at university I worked as a private tutor for students aged 8-17 in my local area. During this time I covered subjects including: Japanese, Social Science, Maths, English and Religious Studies. In 2006 I completed my TESOL course which enables me to teach English as a second language to both children and adults. Finally, in my final year of university I was a mentor for a first year student. This role included helping them settle into university life, making them feel comfortable around campus and providing 2 hours each week to assist with any areas where they were struggling with their studies.



Tutoring Approach:

To begin, I like to identify the areas of the subject that need attention or an area that the student is particularly worried about. I then try to explain things in a different way than text books - trying to relate it to real life situations. I teach by example and feel it is important to move at the students pace ensuring that they understand something before moving on to something else. I believe I am patient, understanding and very approachable - all attributes that are essential to effective tutoring.
