Bio
I edit and write school and academic textbooks for schools across Africa. My special interest is in the English language (either as a home language or a first additional language)
I am familiar with the CAPS curriculum for a number of subjects. I can adjust the language level of a text or a lesson to meet the requirements of the learner - in ways that will extend their knowledge - and not dummy it down
