Stephan K - Tutor in Brooklyn

I am a final year mathematical statistics student who discovered my passion for teaching after working as a teaching assistant at the University of Pretoria. I believe that every child deserves a tutor to help them reach their full potential. Having 10 subjects in matric and taking multiple additional modules at university has taught me not only what it feels like to be overwhelmed, but also the triumph of rising to the challenge. I wish to use this experience to teach those I tutor the enormous satisfaction one experiences after overcoming a difficult obstacle.

Subjects taught
  • Math

    I have always been fascinated by mathematics, a fascination that would eventually lead to me studying my mathematics based degree. I believe that mathematics is the most important school subject and that mastery at younger ages can have significant positive influence on the rest of your life. I also believe that, with the right teacher, any student can come to love and excel at mathematics.

  • Afrikaans

    I am a native Afrikaans speaker and have always enjoyed my mother tongue for its powerful storytelling and fascinating wit. I truly love reading and writing, which allows me to assist in the creative writing department, and am well versed in the many rules and tricks Afrikaans has up its sleeves. Language is the basis for everything we do in life. The languages you speak play a large part in defining your interactions with the world and therefore should be neglected.

  • Economics

    Economics is one of my degree majors and during my second year I discovered that I truly have a talent for it, as I averaged just under 80% across my second year economics modules. I have a passion for the subject and explaining economic ideas to others have become a favorite pastime.

  • Accounting

    Accounting, for all its simplicity, is a an incredibly fascinating and deep subject. I have enjoyed this subject since my first experience with it and this enjoyment has never left me, leading to me achieving a matric mark of 88% for the subject. I believe that my experience with this subject will enable me to convey the most important part of the subject: Breaking each and every transaction down to its most basic principles.
