Bio

I am an Accounting student at UCT. I love using my experience as a student to help other students better understand how to approach their studies and have a positive mindset.

I have experienced both success and moments of being considered "average" in various courses, giving me a well-rounded perspective on the academic spectrum. This diverse experience allows me to relate to fellow students, drawing upon my own challenges to help them grasp concepts they may find challenging.

School Tutoring

Mathematics

Grade 1 - Grade 5 NSC

I like to help students in their early school years to develop a good attitude towards maths to ensure academic success.

I can help students stay focused on completing their homework and am able to give tips on how to manage their time and best tackle the tasks at hand to ensure that it is completed efficiently, and in a way that the content will be committed to their long-term memory (which ensures academic success)
