Bio
I am passionate about the field of Psychology and what can be achieved when students are provided with relevant training. I have varying interests from my work experience in a number of sectors.
Apart from my teaching and tutoring experience I am committed to sharing my knowledge and experience with others. I believe that learning is an ongoing process and that reaching out for help from a teacher is something that students should be encouraged to do. There is not one right way to learn and teachers and students can learn from one another.

Subjects
- University Tutoring
Psychology
I have completed my course work for my Masters degree in Counselling Psychology. I have also completed my practical internship training and am in the process of completing my dissertation which would then allow me to register as a professional psychologist.
Media Studies
Media is a subject that covers a wide array of professions and mediums but it is eye opening to understand the history of media and how we as a society consume media. With this subject I am able to teach critical thinking skills along with practical applications.
Research
Research in the social sciences is not limited to questionnaires and statistics. There are various methods and frameworks which students are able to learn and identify and I am able to help broaden their knowledge base and build their research skills.
Management
Management is a business subject that provides a foundation to understanding how businesses may be structured and run on a day-to-day basis. I am able to work with students to help them build a practical understanding of this subject.
Research Methodology
Once a student has the foundational understanding of research methods in the social sciences this knowledge is built upon for research in specific areas of study such as Psychology. I am equipped to help fill knowledge gaps and ensure my students understand research methodology.
- School Tutoring
Accounting
Being able to understand the logical steps and processes within Accounting gives students insight into the financial practices of businesses and teaches them how money works. I have a passion for helping students understand this.
English
Having the ability to communicate effectively, both written and verbal, in English is an invaluable skill that can open many doors in the future. I am able to guide students to improve their language skills.
Afrikaans
When a person is able to understand more than one language it immediately connects them to more people. Afrikaans is widely spoken in South Africa and it is still relevant to be able to speak, read and write it.
