Bio
I am on a quest to quench my thirst for learning and tutoring is how I get to fill my cup and open up a new world of thinking. As a fitness enthusiast, I believe a healthy mind produces good grades.
I am a former RCL president, motivational speaker, and peer educator. These qualities make me an easily approachable person and easy to learn with. I enjoy challenging myself to help others improve in any aspect of their lives because together we can achieve great things. As an optimist, I am always looking for new ways to learn and improve myself too. If we do it together it can be done!!!

Subjects
- School Tutoring
Mathematics
I am an Applied Mathematics major at UCT, so I am inclined to problem-solving and I enjoy teaching others how to solve mathematical problems on their own. It is a fun and easy subject to learn when done with other people. I have tutored mathematics for the past 3 years in my previous High school.
Life Sciences (Biology)
Biology is an intriguing concept and my approach to learning it is in a visual manner. That is also how I prefer teaching and tutoring the subject, visuals bring life to the theory behind the concept. It is a good way to enjoy learning and a fun way to remember information.
English
As a former High school RCL President, I was a motivational speaker and that required me to improve my vocabulary and develop a certain je ne sais quoi to deliver my speeches. This has also enabled me to instill confidence in the people I help because confidence is key to improving your grades.
Setswana
I remember always being chosen to represent my school when district facilitators paid us a visit. That is how much confidence my home language teacher had in me and because of her faith in me I was able to master the language and now I want to help others gain that same confidence in mastering it.
Life Orientation
Life Orientation is a fun and easy subject to learn and pass when done with others and in an interactive manner. As a former peer educator for Star for Life, I fell in love with teaching others how to tackle common life problems while also helping them improve their grades and perspective on life.
Physical Science
I believe Physics becomes easier and enjoyable to learn once you are able to visualize the concept. That is why I have enjoyed using the visual learning technique to help students imagine and understand the problems as clear as possible. Confidence is key and I aim to help you develop it.
- Language Tutoring
Tswana
The trust my home language teacher placed in me made me the chosen one whenever district facilitators visited our school. This belief in my abilities fueled my language proficiency. Today, I aim to empower others, fostering their confidence in mastering the language.
