Brian S
Tutor in Wynberg, Cape Town • 29 years old
Bio
Knowing everything in the world won't make the world a better place. But doing something good with that knowledge will. It doesn't matter what you do, if what you do doesn't matter.
During my matric year, we lost our math teacher in the first quarter of the year. The replacement took too long and we had to continue without a math teacher in the mean time. That was when I realized my passion for teaching, when my friends suggested that we all help each other out in the afternoons with math.

Subjects
- School Tutoring
AP Maths
I have a practical method of understanding complex Maths problems.
Physics
Physics at a high school level for me is all about the study of motion. The idea is to make the study more relevant to the learner, by converting book problems into everyday learner experiences.
Additional Mathematics
Analytical and Euclidean Geometry require a very strategic approach, especially when teaching learners at an introductory level. The use of color-codes was very helpful for me in better understanding the "complicated" theorems in Circle Geometry.
Geography
Geography is a beautiful subject because it is the study of our surroundings. The most important thing as a tutor is to be able to bring relevant ideas to learners.
