Tutor in Stellenbosch Central, Stellenbosch • 23 years old
Bio
I am a curious, passionate, results-driven person and like to focus on finding flexible solutions to learning difficulties. I believe in compassionate and engaging teaching above traditional methods.
I struggled a fair bit in High School and often found it difficult to do my best due to ADHD. This experience now helps me to relate to students who may struggle with integrating their studies into their lives and finding focus. I understand the importance of finding passion and ease in learning and focusing on keeping material fun and relevant.
Education
• 2020-2023 BA Cum Laude (Psych, Sociology, Ancient Cultures) Stellenbosch
• 2024 BA Hons Industrial Sociology UCT
• Four years of tutoring experience
• Was a class representative and tutor at uni
My Proudest
Achievements
• To be honest, finishing High School well was an immense achievement for me, as I never felt that I would succeed and get over my hurdles. This spurred me on to complete my undergraduate degree with a cum laude in three different majors! I am now studying for my first choice honours degree.
