Tutor in East-Rural, Cape Town • 26 years old
Bio
I am an empathetic person and love to see things from the perspective of my students. Although I love academic success, I believe it is only one of the ways in which scholars can excel.
I am interested in seeing the ways that students are most receptive to learning and believe there is no one-size-fits-all approach to teaching. I am also a certified TEFL teacher and have benefited greatly from understanding the different ways to educate growing young minds.
