Subjects taught

General Maths & Science
Because I have been producing the best results for both subjects in all institutions I was employed. E.g. I was a volunteer at shirilele high school where I was teaching mathematics and Physics, our students were able to get a good pass rate in 2011 compared to the previous years. I went to university of venda where I was a tutor but the lecturers always given me a preference to teach just like a lecturer because students always understand my simplicity of teaching, and therefore I developed over 500 students to understand mathematics in this institution and almost 90% pass rate we got in 2013 foundation level. Furthermore, in 2018 I was a physics lecturer at Tshwane university of technology where our performance was better than other previous years because in the first semester we got over 85% pass rate and in the second semester we obtained over 90% pass rate for Physics first year level. Therefore, this shows that I am the best tutor who has passion and ability for teaching.
