Here are some beautiful words others have said about working with me…
“I had the wonderful opportunity to be Stephanie’s instructor for the Ethics course, and she impressed me with her diligence and hard work. Stephanie’s assignments were consistently punctual, with meticulous care to demonstrate both skill and creativity, always employing entertaining wit and lighthearted conversation, in addition to impressive visual elements to enhance her writing. It was evident that she was really enjoying her time as she crafted her pieces. Her participation was the cherry on top, the kind an instructor loves to leave for last to thoroughly savour the experience. Not only was her writing a joy, but it was also clear, correct, and well-organized, and her experience as a budding editor shone through. She completed the course having earned an impressive A+.” – Heba Sourour, Simon Fraser University

“Stephanie Watterson was a keen eye on Word Vancouver’s festival program for 2023. With over 84 individual events happening over the course of a few weeks this is no small task. As a literary arts festival there is no room for errors in what we put out to the public. Stephanie was sensitive to our needs, professional to work with and took the extra time needed to ensure our program was correct in every way possible. She is a priceless asset to anyone who uses her.” — Bonnie Nish, Word Vancouver
“Thank you for learning more about some supports that the autism community might need and how you can adapt your program offering to minds of all abilities.
