I love languages — from literature’s deeper meanings to the technical side of grammar. While Afrikaans is my home language, I’ve mostly tutored in English, earned my degrees in it, and worked professionally in English too.

Children need to have been given a proper foundation in English in order to go through the Foundation phase confidently! Everyone learns at different paces and each child is special in their own way. I teach with my heart and will go out of my way for any child!
