Mathematics

I received 75% in Matric for NSC Mathematics and have informally tutored grade 10 Maths whilst still in high school. I have also completed two university Maths courses at the University of Pretoria in my first year, both with distinction at a university level. I believe Maths is essential in life.

Life Sciences (Biology)

I have a passion for Biology and received 82% for the subject in Matric at an NSC level. I have also completed three courses related to Biology at university level in my first year of university. Great marks for Biology are essential for people wanting to go into a medical or biological field.

Physical Science

I received 81% for Physical Science in Matric at an NSC level, and also received a distinction in both a Physics and a Chemistry course in my first year of university. I believe Science is very important for the advancement of both medicine and technology, amongst other things.

Applied Statistics

I received a distinction for Biometry in my first year at the University of Pretoria in 2020. Biometry is all about learning your formulas as well as reading a question with the intent to understand what is being asked of you - if you ace these, Biometry should be relatively easy for you.

Applied Mathematics

I received a distinction for Applied Calculus in my first year at the University of Pretoria in 2020. Applied Calculus is based on prior knowledge from calculus in Matric, although there is a simple way to explain it from scratch that will make it easier to join each concept into a bigger picture.

Biology

I received a distinction for Plant Biology in my first year at the University of Pretoria in 2020. Botany builds on the foundation learnt in grade 10 Biology, although it can be taught from the very beginning in a way that is simple to understand and easy to grasp.

Microbiology

I received a distinction for Introductory Microbiology in my first year at the University of Pretoria in 2020. Microbiology builds upon previous knowledge learned in high school but can also be easily taught from the beginning. It relies on studying and understanding the content and questions asked.

Human Biology

I received a distinction for Molecule to Cell Biology in my first year at the University of Pretoria in 2020. MBY is a bit tricky if you did not do Biology in high school but can be learnt from the beginning. It requires you to link concepts together to get a bigger picture of how cells function.
