Lisa D - Tutor in Villieria

Hi, my name is Lisa Dreyer. I am currently a second-year Financial Sciences Student at the University of Pretoria. I have a passion for accounting and personal financing and thoroughly enjoy teaching the subject. I believe in teaching with purpose rather than for passing. I go through topics methodically and thoughtfully with students in order to ensure that they not only understand the concepts and methods but the reasoning and purpose behind them in a manner that best suits their own learning style and ability. I aim to teach methods which students can use to become more confident in their abilities in order for them to see accounting not as a daunting task but rather as a fun and stimulating intellectual challenge.
