Bio

I am multi-faceted, creative, kind, patient and empathetic. I hold a BSc in Civil Engineering and an MA/MSc in Design Engineering and hope to inspire others to think creatively about tricky problems.

As someone who struggled to find my feet academically in high school, I love to help other people find theirs. I had great tutors who inspired me academically and this laid a foundation that I took forward into my undergraduate and postgraduate degrees. As a tutor, designer, engineer and researcher my key strength is my creativity, which I believe can be taught, or carefully instilled, in anyone.

Subjects

  • School Tutoring

Mathematics

Grade 1 - Grade 12

I am an empathetic and patient tutor as I struggled with Maths prior to Matric (averaging 60%). Between Grades 11 and 12 I increased my marks by over 20% and ended up getting into and completing an Engineering degree. Point is, I get it, Maths is hard but I'm here to help in a kind way.

Art

Grade 1 - Grade 12

As one of my top Matric results, I've continued an artistic practice making large-scale sculptures and paintings and hold an MA in Design from the Royal College of Art in the UK. It's a lifelong passion and I would love to inspire more students!

History

Grade 1 - Grade 12

I achieved 88% in History in Matric and I am an excellent proofreader with a passion to write academically.

English

Grade 1 - Grade 12

I enjoyed English throughout high school and love to edit my own and others’ written work. As an editor, I try to understand your ideas first, and why you’ve chosen to present them that way, before helping you develop them.

Physics

Grade 1 - Grade 12

I love problem-solving. More often than not I’ve found that all that is needed is another perspective, rather than a direct answer, to help you understand the tricky puzzles Physics can provide.
