Subjects
- School Tutoring
Business Studies
Business Studies was my favourite subject and I scored in the top 1% nationally at the end of high school. I quickly learnt how to work with a content-heavy subject and this allowed me to do well in highschool.
History
I have always enjoyed history and this pushed me to do well. History has given me excellent lifelong writing skills which are still proving very useful to me at a university level. I am able to take a lot of content and make it manageable.
Life Orientation
LO required me to do a lot of assignments and I have learnt how to structure projects and presentations to ensure that I get the best mark possible. I am also able to take a lot of information and break it down so that it is easy to remember.
Life Sciences (Biology)
I have always excelled in Biology and obtained a distinction for the subject in highschool. I am able to take a lot of content and break it down into pieces that are easy to understand.

Applied Mathematics
I have always excelled in Mathematics. I pride myself on understanding the technical aspects of the subject as well as the beauty of it. I wish to help others understand it better.
Economics
I am able to give context to difficult graphs that are taught in this subject. I am also able to help the student break down the large number of extra readings that are required in this course.
Business Law
I have a deep understanding of Business Law which, when combined with patience I believe will help the student excel. I am able to assist students with the large amount of content that is covered in this course.

People Management requires a lot of critical thinking and it also requires the student to remember a large amount of content. I am able to assist with the structuring and critical thinking of assignments as well as content recall for tests and exams.
