Bio
Let's work together in order to ensure that you get value for your money and time!
I taught a young school girl content for a school exam - I was called in the day before her exam - she was lost in the subject. She passed her exam. I have taught Math and English at both a government and a private school. I have coached many youngsters to pass their driver's license on their first test. This speaks of a general ability to teach!

Subjects
- School Tutoring
Mathematics
It is particularly fulfilling bringing a pupil to a clear understanding of what he/she is dealing with where previously they felt lost. Both Math and English are critical subjects for all that lies ahead.
Mathematics Literacy
It is a worthwhile and happy experience to see understanding grow and to see one's pupil realize what a powerful tool in one's hands math literacy is. You are able to 'check things out for yourself'!
English
Take an interest in English, read good material - even just a little - regularly on your own, and know what material is relevant to an English examiner! This way your marks will skyrocket!
- Language Tutoring
English
A good grasp of English and the ability to show it instils confidence in all those who come into contact with it. If you speak well, you have the best chance of doing well!
Conversational English
To carry on meaningful conversation one has to 'stay on point' and be aware of the information that must be conveyed to the listener. This truth holds good whether you are engaged in a relaxed social conversation or in a more pressurized business situation.
