Bio

Part tutor, part cheerleader, all about those lightbulb moments. I’m excited to share my passion for learning and help students build the confidence they need to excel academically and beyond!

As a prefect, I had to opportunity to mentor five grade eights through their first year of high school, offering both life and academic support. This sparked my passion for tutoring. I've also done skills development training with a child who had significant learning challenges, which taught me patience, adaptability, and the importance of a compassionate and holistic approach to learning.

Education

• Currently pursuing a BCom in Management Studies at the University of Cape Town (first year).

My Proudest
Achievements

• Earned salutatorian of my high school.

I placed first in English in Grade 12, earned a Silver Award in the 2024 English Olympiad, and won the Eastern Cape International Toastmasters Competition. I love analysing poetry and literature, guiding others in public speaking, and sharing tips to help learners excel in English at any level!

Business Studies

Grade 1 - Grade 12 IEB

Business is a huge passion of mine! I came first for the subject in matric, and now study a BCom at UCT. I love making the subject come alive by connecting what we learn to real-world examples and helping students find study methods that actually work for them.

Life Orientation is about more than just passing a subject — it’s about building life skills and confidence. I bring a positive, encouraging approach to help students succeed both academically and personally.

Study skills
