Annika B - Tutor in Doringkloof

I have completed my Bachelor's degree in Education at the University of Pretoria at the end of 2019. The subjects that I specialised in included, Geography, Social Studies, Mathematics (Grade 7-9) and Mathematical Literacy and therefore believe I am well equipped to tutor any candidate in these subjects. However, seeing that teaching is my passion, I know I'll give my best effort to tutor any other candidate in any other subject.

Matric - Afrikaans Hoer Meisies Pretoria

My school career at the Afrikaans High School For Girls Pretoria, presented many opportunities in which I could I learn new knowledge and skills in academics, sport, culture and my social life.

In grade 8 and 9, I received colours for academics and culture and achieved 2 distinctions for my end year results in the subjects of Life Orientation and Geography in Grade 12; also achieving 79 for the subject English First Additional Language and 78 for Afrikaans Home Language.

Subjects taught
  • Mathematics Literacy

    I have extensive exposure and knowledge in this subject, as I it was one of the subjects I specialised in during my Teaching degree. I am therefore equipped to teach and tutor this subject for Grade 10-12 students.

  • Math

    I am able to assist candidates with Mathematics up until Grade 9, seeing that I have taught this subject to Grade 8 and 9s during my teaching practicals in 2019. Therefore, I am aware of common struggles learners may have, but also the solutions to ensure any candidate will understand and exceed in Math.

  • History

    Seeing that I've also completed my first year in the History module during my studies, I know I am able to tutor and teach learners in History up until Grade 9. I'll always find ways to make the subject interesting and visual, seeing that all the facts and dates the subject is known for, can sometimes overwhelm students.

  • Geography

    Geography is one of the subjects that I specialised in during my degree in Education. I have a big passion for this subject and extensive knowledge outside school level as it involves how life around us function and is put together.

  • Afrikaans

    Although Afrikaans wasn't one of my extra subjects during my degree, it is my home language and therefore close to my heart. I have always excelled in this subject during my whole school career and are still aware of everything the subject requires.
