Bio

I am highly energetic and enjoy bringing a positive atmosphere to any environment. I love talking to people, sharing in their stories, learning new things and cultivating wholesome relationships.

I find other people's happiness contagious. If there is a problem and it is withing my power to help, it brings great joy to do so. I might even learn something, meet someone amazing or just, hopefully, set a good example. It does help that I have always been a little overly-enthusiastic at times but I find that people enjoy a little spark of energy from time to time.

Subjects

  • School Tutoring

English

Grade 1 - Grade 12

I am energetic and have spent the last few years working with many types of people, training people of all ages for hospitality. I have completed my TEFL course to help supplement my knowledge pool, with practical teaching experience there too and always have a highly positive outlook on life.

History

Grade 1 - Grade 12

Matric level history is the point in which the past and present meet. It shares the full grasp of why certain cultures are where they are, why they behave as such and I will share that understanding with my students.

Social Science

Grade 1 - Grade 9

My favourite aspects of history and geography were learnt in Grade 9 and it is where students make a big decision about subject choices. I am a great tutor to hone into any keen passion and make that decision easier.

Life Sciences (Biology)

Grade 1 - Grade 11

Biology changed how I look at nature and gave me a deep appreciation for all the intricacies that bring life together on the planet. I help show this through showing students core facts of life and the processes within.

Natural Science

Grade 1 - Grade 9

I am a great tutor of natural science because I teach my students to ask why things are and then go through the process to find proof and justify any opinions. Natural science is a perfect blend of two worlds.

Art History

Grade 1 - Grade 11

This is where theory and creativity blend. I am a great art tutor because I let students develop their own work and interests, dedicating my time and passion for the arts to helping them where needed, cultivating artistic growth.

Arts & Culture

Grade 1 - Grade 9

This is where theory and creativity blend. I am a great art tutor because I let students develop their own work and interests, dedicating my time and passion for the arts to helping them where needed, cultivating artistic growth.

Exam Preparation

Grade 1 - Grade 10

I enjoy helping children prepare for exams by assisting them with revising their various subjects, working through examples, and helping them to feel more confident in their abilities before the exams.

  • Language Tutoring
