Bio
I am a biotechnologist who helps students understand science by breaking complex concepts into clear steps, building confidence through patience, structured support, and steady progress.
I explain concepts step by step, adapt to each student’s learning style, and create a supportive space for questions. I am patient, structured, and good at breaking down difficult topics into clear, practical steps. I am focused on helping students truly understand, not just memorize.

Subjects
English
Grade 1 - Grade 12 NSCEnglish plays a big role in a learner’s overall confidence at school. I work closely with learners to improve reading, writing, grammar, and comprehension at a pace that suits them. By creating a calm and encouraging space, learners become more comfortable sharing their ideas and asking questions.
Life Sciences (Biology)
Grade 1 - Grade 12 NSCLife Sciences involves a lot of content, which can be stressful for learners. I support learners by helping them understand concepts and organise their learning in a manageable way. I focus on explaining biological processes patiently, using diagrams and discussions to reinforce understanding.
Xhosa
Grade 1 - Grade 12 NSCWhether isiXhosa is a home language or an additional language, I help learners build confidence in using the language correctly and comfortably. I aim is to help learners feel proud of their progress and confident in their ability to communicate, both academically and socially.
Natural Science
Grade 1 - Grade 9 NSCNatural Sciences can feel confusing when concepts are not explained clearly. I enjoy helping learners make sense of the world around them by breaking down scientific ideas into simple parts. By focusing on understanding rather than memorisation, learners feel more confident and less overwhelmed.
