Bio
My peers describe me as bubbly, dedicated, hard-working, and people-loving. I am passionate about learning and pushing myself to new heights, and I am always enthusiastic to help others thrive too!
I find great meaning in helping others. Thus, I have chosen to pursue a career in Psychology. I am also a probationary counsellor at LifeLine and have begun participating in SHAWCO's community service initiatives. I have always believed that people need each other and that there is always something to learn from our peers. I wish to use my strengths to help others where they are struggling.

Subjects
School Tutoring
Mathematics
Grade 1 - Grade 12 NSCMaths was my favourite subject at school. I enjoy the logical nature of it and even continued to take it at university, passing with distinctions. I love to help people understand what can often be a very challenging subject. So, let's team up so I can help you to make the experience a bit easier :)
Music Theory
Grade 1 - Grade 12 NSCI love music! I have my Advanced Certificate in Flute, Grade 5 in Music Theory, and Grade 4 in Piano. I received the Major Music Scholarship at my high school and took Music as a subject up to Matric, where I achieved a distinction. I understand how challenging theory can be, so let me help you!
University Tutoring
Business Mathematics
First Year MAM1010F and MAM1012S (respectively)Maths at university was a big jump from school Maths. I struggled in the beginning but eventually was proud of my outcome (91% and 94%). I was even offered the position of head tutor at UCT for MAM1012S. I feel confident that I can help you and make this subject feel more manageable.
Business Accounting
First Year ACC1012SI did two accounting courses at UCT during Covid-19, and passed with distinctions. I learnt via remote teaching, which meant I really needed to engage with the content if I wanted to succeed. This left me with a very good understanding of the work and I would be happy to help you through it too!
Financial Accounting
First Year ACC1006FI took accounting for the first time in University, during online learning, and passed with distinction. I find it logical and with practice, it became easy to understand. If you need extra support as a first-time accounting student, I think we could work together to help you reach your goals!

These courses can be challenging, and I would love to help you!
Research Methodology
First Year - Third Year BUS3004SI have done 3 courses at university focused on research.
