Bio

I strive to be a medium of growth and a pool of knowledge. I enjoy challenges and will always ensure that I produce exemplary work.

I am very patient and adapt my teaching style to each learner. I do not believe in a one fits all teaching style as each learner will absorb knowledge differently. There is no such thing as a bad learner... only a teacher who doesn't make an effort.

Education

  • 2018 - Toastmasters Youth Leadership certificate
  • 2019 - National Senior Certificate
  • 2020 - present - BSc. Computer Science - Wits University

My proudest achievements

  • Cum Laude certificate at the end of grade 12. Honours award for service to my school. Passing my first year at Wits.

Subjects

University Tutoring

Python

First Year COMS1018

Python truly is a beautiful language and is ideal for beginners who find coding a bit confusing or challenging. I have learned a lot from using python and this knowledge allowed me to excel with languages like C++ and java.

C++

First Year COMS1017

C++ is one diverse language and is definitely challenging to grasp. So why continue? C++ is one of the most fun languages you can learn and is very useful. During my first year, I had plenty of days where I would just explore the vast features of C++ and have learned plenty from using this language.

Computer science

First Year COMS1015

Basic Computer Organisation. The foundation of any computer-related task. From the makeup of the computer hardware to the basics of the software, this course is rich with knowledge and trivia. There's plenty to learn, and there is plenty I have learned that I can share with you.

Java

First Year

I have learned a lot from using python and this knowledge allowed me to excel with languages like C++ and java.

Mathematics

First Year COMS1016

Discrete Computational Structures is an introductory course to Abstract Math, and allows for the student to transition to the world of abstract math needed for computer science. It is a fun subject that is equally enjoyable as it is challenging.

Reviews from others

I had an excellent learning experience with Refiloe as my tutor for SQL and Python. Refiloe's approachable teaching style significantly enhanced the lessons, which in turn allowed me to dive deeper into my areas of curiosity. His methods not only made the sessions engaging but also encouraged me to explore concepts at a pace that suited my learning style. This approach fostered a genuine enthusiasm for the subjects, making every lesson both informative and enjoyable. I deeply appreciate his ability to cater to my interests and his patience in explaining complex topics. Thanks to Refiloe, I now feel more confident and capable in my programming skills. Highly recommend him to anyone looking to understand SQL and Python in a supportive and encouraging environment!

With how little tutoring hours Matthew had when I booked my first classes, I was wondering how good he was at tutoring. After our first lesson I understood the work so much better than I thought I would. He was very creative in the ways he explained the work and in the end, that was the reason why I understood it. I am extremely happy that I got Matthew as my tutor.

From the first lesson I have had with Matthew, he gives me the confidence that this course is a piece of cake and this confidence helps me view this course as "easy".
