Bio
I try to bring kindness to every interaction. I work hard, but with purpose, and am good at isolating issues.
Working in a debating team has really developed my ability to help others. I think any activity which forces someone to consider the team's best outcome rather than their own is important in fostering understanding and a genuine desire to help other people. My experiences as head girl, as well as my current job as a debating coach, have also taught me a lot about working with younger people.
Education
• 2016 - present: BA at the University of Cape Town

Achievements
• I was the head girl at Kingsmead College in 2015, I am the 22nd best school's debater for 2015, and I have been placed on the Dean's Merit List for the last two years at the University of Cape Town.
Subjects
- School Tutoring
French
I loved learning French at school, and have continued my studies into university, having just completed my major in French literature. I believe I can blend an excitement for the language into my teaching, and look forward to doing so.
English
I believe that communication is one of the most important skills we learn at school, which English probes directly. I can offer assistance particularly with regards to the essays and long-answer questions students must answer.
History
Doing well in History is often about the quality of the argument you present. I found this subject fascinating at school and would love to be able to revisit the content, as well as providing the argumentative advice which the subject requires.
Drama
Drama is a subject which tests a number of skills and was my favorite part of the school day for this reason. I would be able to provide directorial assistance as well as help with the essay and theoretical components of the subject.
Life Orientation
Life Orientation can become a difficult subject if adequate attention is not paid to its merits. I can offer the assistance in essay and answer construction which would turn this subject into a cause for confidence.
