Subjects
Mathematics
Grade 1 - Grade 12 CAPS & IEBMaths has always been my favourite subject. I studied AP Maths and Calculus at university and have volunteered as a high school maths tutor. I enjoy helping students improve by breaking down concepts creatively for better understanding.
Geography
Grade 1 - Grade 12 CAPS & IEBI have always enjoyed geography. Studying Geological Sciences allowed me to complete modules that build on high school geography, giving me a deeper understanding of the subject and making me an effective tutor for students.
Physical Science
Grade 1 - Grade 12 CAPS & IEBPhysical science has always fascinated me. I studied physics and chemistry at university and believe that building a strong foundational understanding is essential for success in this subject.
Study skills
Grade 1 - Grade 12I did a study skills course in high school which helped me through school and my tertiary studies. I'm able to identify a student's learning style and teach them how to use that to their advantage. I focus on their concentration, memory skills and study methods for each topic.
Geology
First Year - Third YearI completed my BSc in Geology at UKZN, passing all modules on the first attempt. I tutor geology subjects like mineralogy and sedimentary petrology, making lessons engaging while ensuring students fully understand the concepts.
