BA (Hons), PGCE, TESOL
Stephen is from the UK and completed his Bachelor’s degree in Modern Languages in Newcastle University, and later earned his PGCE in Modern Languages teaching qualifications in Cheltenham and Nottingham. He has worked in international schools in Russia and the UK before moving to China.
Stephen came to China in 2014 and has taught IGCSE English, IBDP English B and English A Language and Literature. He joined BSB in 2020 because he was impressed by its culture of “Be Ambitious”. He enjoys challenging students with high-level, idiomatic and colloquial language.
Stephen is here in China with his wife Charlotte - from Harbin – and little daughter Annie. In his free time he is guitar mad. He plays in a rock band, and loves building and customising guitars. His other passion is language. He speaks Russian and French, and hopes to one day become a fluent Chinese speaker!
