I began tutoring in 2008, and have experience with helping students from 8+ up to A-Level.

I am also conducting interviews of UK applicants on behalf of Yale University. I also teach acting at StageCoach.
Biography
I was awarded an academic scholarship to St.Paul's School in London before going to Yale University, where I double majored in History and Theatre Studies. I also took a variety of courses in the social sciences, arts and natural sciences as part of the American liberal arts system.
I graduated Yale in 2007 and moved back to London to train as an actor at the London Academy of Music and Dramatic Art (LAMDA), which I finished in July 2009.
Personal Approach
Every student has different needs. I try to help a pupil devise a way of studying that suits them individually, as well as clarifying and expanding upon the core material covered by the curriculum. Especially with certain GCSE and A-level subjects, preparation is as much to do with thought process, essay technique and the development of innovative and thoughtfully devised arguments, as it is to do with knowledge of the material.

''Stefano worked out really well, despite the chaos of our house! He is really a charming character and most importantly our son really likes him. I would definitely recommend him to any other parents.''
