Bio
I've worked with children, teens and young adults for 15 years in 4 different countries. I tutor full time at a Homeschool centre, English, Afrikaans and Drama.
The most important thing to me, is helping a learner have confidence in themselves. I have a unique ability to see what people need. I love to make the environment feel fun and safe. To me, language, the Arts and history are really about telling the human story. A decade of acting experience has helped me to take literature and help it come alive. I can make literature, (like Shakespeare) fun!

• F.E.T. in Performing Arts - The National School of the Arts.
