Katende Jonathan K - Tutor in Springbokpark
My tutoring journey starts in 2006 when trying to teach physics to my struggling little sister. The challenges I saw her experiencing with the technical jargon led me to develop a simple approach consisting in using commonly used terminology and examples to explain difficult concepts. My strategy consists in breaking complex problems and smaller chunks that are easy to digest. I have no doubt of my capacity to motivate my students and lead them to a place of academic excellence.
