Bio

I was born in Germany, have studied, worked abroad and travelled after finishing my MSc in Biology. Now I am doing a PhD on fungal communities in plants in Pretoria, South Africa.

I am very willing to update my knowledge on everything the student would like to learn and present it in an easy-to-understand manner. We can have a conversation about concepts or go through assignments together. I am friendly, patient and easy to get along with.

Education

• Jun 2015 - present: PhD Student, Department of Biochemistry, Microbiology and Genetics (University of Pretoria).
• Oct 2008 - Sep 2013: BSc, MSc, Biology (Braunschweig University of Technology, Germany)

My Proudest
Achievements

• Travelling by myself shaped me into who I am today and made me realise that I want to continue gaining knowledge and do a PhD. I am proud to have been living abroad for a long time now and that I will be finishing my PhD soon.

Reviews from others

“She is always going the extra mile to make sure I understand, get study material I can use.”

Keobakile

“She was very helpful and made me feel comfortable and confident even if I did not feel it. If there was any problem we would make sure to solve it and would never skip anything and that was great for her to implement that.”

Jonathan

“Mandy explains any queries or volunteers to explain before I can query, all reasons why and where the German language and tenses differ to English. A comparison or giving English explanations makes it so much easier to learn. Mandy is also a very pleasant person making it easy to learn from her wealth of knowledge of both the languages, English and German. ”

Antony

“Mandy is very patient and encouraging. She also goes out of her way to ensure we get additional study resources and more information pertaining to the German language and Germany as a country. Also very motivating during the lessons, even if we are a bit slow with the exercises. Thanks Mandy, we appreciate all your efforts. ”

Shaun

“Mandy was very helpful and over and beyond . The extra materials prepared help with understanding and highly appreciated the extra input to help build understanding. ”
