Bio

I'm an approachable and patient person. I'm community orientated, I dedicate most of my free time volunteering either to schools where I get to tutor, do beach clean-ups (offered by societies at UCT)

I'm Patient, I believe you cannot help people if you are not patient, we are all different and acknowledging that we are all different is very important. That's why I always adopt different learning styles that will help my students understand lessons easier and that requires patience. I have struggled before so I know when to push and when to listen and provide remedies.

History

Grade 1 - Grade 12

I dedicate my time to teaching and guiding students to ensure they understand the foundations of history and how they can apply that on paper. I believe everyone can do well in this subject with the right technique and guidance. (Take it as a narration of ancient times that moulded the status quo)

Life Sciences (Biology)

Grade 1 - Grade 11

As a Life Sciences tutor, I thrive in engaging students with concepts they may struggle with or find challenging. Everyone can do well with the correct approach, guidance and mindset. My approach is based on making learning fun and easy to engage with while attaining excellent results.

English

Grade 1 - Grade 12

Struggling with English is something I'm familiar with and I worked hard until I was amongst the best. Teaching this subject is close to my heart I want my future students to excel like I did. It only takes dedication and a good and patient teacher, and I believe I'm that teacher.

Zulu

Grade 1 - Grade 12

As a Zulu native speaker, I thrive in teaching and helping people understand my language's basic and advanced nuances. With the correct guidance, I believe anyone can thrive in this subject (Language), be it primary, high school or those who want to equip themselves with daily conversations.

Natural Science

Grade 1 - Grade 9

I taught life sciences in grade 12, and now I have been grading natural sciences for UCT online high school. that has exposed me to how to best teach a student and what it is that is mostly asked. thus, I will be teaching which is likely to be examinable and how to answer questions, a required skill
