About Sophie (English and French) I am a fully qualified and well-experienced French and ESL teacher (French national). I studied English for my DEUG at Université de Perpignan. My third year was spent at Sheffield University under the Erasmus scheme, my fourth year earned me two maîtrises (Double Masters) one in French as a Foreign Language (FLE) and the other in English Literature; the two years of my CAPES were split by a year as an assistante in the UK, and my CAPES was validated in 1999. Since I qualified as a teacher, I have taught both languages in private and state schools, in the UK, in France, in Spain and in Denmark.
About Fraser (Science and Maths)
I first studied the sciences for my 'O'-Levels at school in the 1970s and returned to them as a mature student in the 1990s. I took an Access to Science course at Bridgwater College and then read the experimental basis of disease (formally ' Cellular and Molecular Pathology') in the School of Medical Sciences at Bristol University. I received Dean's commendations for both my first and second-year exams and I graduated in 1996 with 2:1 honour. For my doctorate, I set up a lab to research DNA damage and repair at Treliske Hospital under the supervision of the Plymouth Postgraduate Medical School (PPMS), is the forerunner of the Peninsula Medical School (PMS). I took a couple of short post-doc research posts, first at the PPMS and then in the Biochemistry Dept. at Bristol, before returning back to Cornwall in 2003. I started tutoring students in 1999. Recognising that tutoring science in a laboratory setting would be much more effective than on home visits, the Le Loft project was started in 2011 and the science lab opened a year later.
