It's alleged that he told the girl, who it is claimed was under the age of 18, that he loved her and gave her a Valentine's Day card.
Further charges against Vincent allege that he discussed sex and contraception before ordering her to delete text messages.
The alleged incidents reportedly happened over a 17 month period amid allegations the secondary school teacher touched the girl and kissed her.
It further alleged that he told her that he loved her, took her for dinner and invited her to his home.
It's alleged that the educator gave the schoolgirl a necklace and drove her in his car.
The physics teacher is also accused of stalking the same complainer when she was an adult, reports the Press and Journal.
The charge reportedly alleges: 'You did comment and compliment her on her appearance, tell her that you loved her, drive her in your car, telephone her and exchange text messages of a sexual and intimate nature with her.'
It's understood that the case is due to call again in August.
Elsewhere a shamed English teacher who groomed a pupil and was sexually inappropriate to two other girls in his class has avoided jail.
David Davidson, 49, preyed on his victims at a school in the north of Glasgow between August 2008 and April 2023.
A teenage girl told a court she skipped lessons to be alone with Davidson in his classroom.
She said she fell in love with Davidson and that he had told her that he loved her back.
Davidson told her he would take her to his house and out for dinner once she was old enough to leave school.
Davidson went on to stroke the girl on the face and called her "pretty."

Faslane Navy base pervert who groped female colleague at bar locked up
The engineering technician has been caged for 34 weeks SAILOR'S SHAME Faslane Navy base pervert who groped female colleague at bar locked up Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) A FASLANE-based Royal Navy sailor has been jailed after he groped a female colleague at a bar in Iceland. Able Seaman Craig Kennedy, 25, was caught red-handed sexually assaulting the woman but still refused to accept it even though there was 'overwhelming' CCTV evidence. Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 2 A woman was sexually assaulted at a sports bar in Reykjavik, Iceland Credit: Getty (stock image) Cameras from a sports bar in the capital Reykjavik showed him reaching under the female sailor's skirt and grabbing her, a court martial was told. The footage also showed AB Kennedy, an engineer in the Navy, staggering around in a 'state of extreme intoxication'. A court martial heard his victim had to be prescribed anti-depressants, struggles to be around men and has applied to leave the Navy. AB Kennedy, stationed at HM Naval Base Clyde - the nuclear submarine base known as Faslane - insisted she made the story up. Now, the engineering technician has been locked up for 34 weeks at a military detention centre. AB Kennedy, who was in the Navy for almost five years, was also dismissed from the service and put on the Sex Offenders Register for five years. Catterick Military Court, North Yorks, was told AB Kennedy groped the sailor while they were working together in Iceland. He groped her under her skirt, it was heard. Sentencing him, Assistant Judge Advocate General Edward Legard said: 'At that time, both yourself and [the victim] were deployed to Iceland. 'You were previously not well known to one another but during the course of an evening, you struck up a conversation, which began as a light-hearted one. Sailor investigated over 'stealing secrets' from nuclear submarine at Scots base 'That continued for some time whilst you were in the company of others in the American Bar in Reykjavík. 'However, as [the victim] was looking in a different direction to you, whilst in a state of extreme intoxication, you grabbed her first on her bottom and then subsequently touched her on her vaginal area. 'Those assaults were both caught on CCTV. 'You can be seen on CCTV staggering around with little, if any, control of your physical movements. 2 A Faslane Navy base pervert has been locked up for groping a female colleague Credit: John Kirkby 'You refused to accept any responsibility for your actions that night and you continue to do so. 'You maintained your denials in the face of overwhelming CCTV evidence, and you continue to do so.' AB Kennedy denied two counts of sexual assault but was convicted at court martial. The court was told that his attack caused a 'profound and lasting impact' on his victim. In sending AB Kennedy to military detention, Judge Legard told him: 'This type of behaviour is unacceptable today. 'It goes without saying that anyone in the civilian world, convicted of such an offence, would inevitably be dismissed for gross misconduct. 'That is no different here, where the services, of course, demand higher standards of behaviour.'
