Laura C - Tutor in Tyger Valley
Hi, I am 23 and am currently completing my BA (Hons) in Psychological Counselling through UNISA. Last year (2019) I completed my BA Psychology & English (Linguistics) degree through Pearson Institute of Higher Education. I also completed two practical training courses and now volunteer as a lay-counsellor for an NPO and work mostly with individuals who live in informal settlements. My practical work has taught me many skills involved in working with people on an individual level where it is necessary to be warm, caring, empathic, and genuine. I have a great love for my field of study and hope that others can benefit from it as much as I have. I have about 4 years of experience as an au pair at high school level and thus have experience in assisting with academic assignments and studying for tests.

Experience
Lay-Counsellor
I volunteer as a lay-counsellor at an NPO, and although we have many facilities across Pretoria, I generally work in the informal settlements. I counsel individuals who need a safe space to have their thoughts heard or don't know how to cope with their current situations.
