I am a friendly, patient person, which coupled with my empathy, makes me very approachable. I am very passionate about the sciences and will readily make my knowledge accessible to those in need.
The greatest qualities I value about myself are essential for helping others: patience, empathy, level-headedness, and friendliness. I volunteered as a peer tutor during matric as I thoroughly enjoy helping others achieve their personal goals. I have a keen interest in psychology and teaching which helps with my approach to individualistic needs.
• Peer tutor during Matric (2015).
• Matriculated in 2015 with 6 Distinctions.
• 2016-present B.Sc in Biochemistry and Applied Biology at UCT.
• Firstly, I received academic colours during Matric. Secondly, I improved my Maths mark from 55% (Grade 9) to receiving the highest math test mark of the Grade (100%) in Grade 10 and continuing to achieve above 90% for the remainder of my school career.
Mathematics
I tutored maths as a peer tutor during my matric year. I was once a tutee myself, thus, my experience as both a low and high achiever has equipped me to help students both academically and emotionally as mathematics can be a very daunting subject.
Geography
Geography has always been a passion of mine with my interest continuing into my first-year of University. I took a course in both Human and Physical Geography, establishing a deeper knowledge of the subject.
Life Sciences (Biology)
I have completed several courses at UCT in the Biology stream (Cell Biology, Botany, Biochemistry, Zoology, Genetics, Biogeography and Ecology). I am very passionate about the Biological Sciences.
Physical Science
Physics was my better half of science during high school while I continued with chemistry into first year; the course I completed is essential for future chemists as well as chemical engineers.
