What happens in a session

01

Check in

Every session starts with a brief check-in. Stephanie takes a moment to understand how the student is feeling and what they need that day.

02

Focused work

The core of the session is structured, scaffolded work on the student's current English task — reading, writing, analysis or exam preparation.

03

Resources and tools

Students leave with curated resources tailored to their learning profile — not generic worksheets, but materials chosen for how they think.

04

Review and feedback

Stephanie provides written feedback on practice work between sessions, so progress continues beyond the hour.
