Hi 🙂 I am a Psychology graduate who is busy with my honours at the moment. I love children, especially teaching them because I am extremely Patient and friendly. Most students I have worked with enjoy their time with me. I usually work with learners experiencing difficulties in learning such as having Autism, ADHD etcetera. So if you are keen on having fun lessons and learning in a way that fits your needs, I surely am the right person to help.

Subjects taught
  • English Literature

    Literature can be confusing especially when you have to write essays and synthesise information from the text. I enjoy analyzing text and encouraging students to make meaning of the text in order to improve their essay writing and contextual writing. Books such as Othello, Macbeth etcetera can be a little confusing but with the right guidance, one could score great marks without having to stress.

  • Mathematics

    So far I have taught primary school learners with maths and have enjoyed it because I am able to bring back courage and self confidence to the learners by making learning numbers fun and less challenging.

  • History

    I am good with essay writing. I am able to assist with getting the right information with the right points to score above 80 percent in the exam, if you are willing to go an extra mile. I am also able to assist with making history easier to understand because I make use of different learning methods for each learner.

  • Business Studies

    Business Studies is alot to studying for one exam. What I usually do is to study each topic, noting the important points, and leaving out redundant phrases to prevent memory block. I am aware of the different theories and how to apply them to a case study or scenario, for example the PESTLE analysis to petrol stations in South Africa.

  • Biology

    I am very much passionate about Biology. I understand most things because I constantly feed myself with information around it . I scored really well in the subject in matric, therefore I am able to assist learners with dissecting topics and understanding the underlying factors that contribute to the whole topic.
