Phuluso M - Tutor in Sunnyside

I am a final year Genetics student at the University of Pretoria who's passion lies in the biological scientific world as well as literature. I have published a short story with English alive and started a writing society on campus to further my writing prowess. When it comes to subjects of my interest, I can be a very sociable person. I have a lot of tutoring experience in different subjects though I do excel exceptionally in English and Biology.
