Tutor

I’ve been approached by lots of students with lots of different questions and issues regarding skills or content for the past few years. While I’ve been tutoring informally before 2019, in 2019, my friends and I established a formal Tutoring Portfolio at our school to ensure that learners always have access to the help that they need.

Subjects taught
  • Math

    Maths is a subject that always took the longest for me to grasp. Because I had to work hard at it (much more than my other subjects) I have a solid grasp of its principles as well as the methods. It is a subject that is extremely enjoyable and be a veritable ‘mind gym’.

    History has always been fun! It’s a subject that is extremely versatile and allow for a lot of interaction between tutor and student. I love teaching it because of the fun conversations debates! I love how it pieces together a picture of why today looks how it does!

  • Afrikaans

    Afrikaans has always come easily to me, but not to many of my friends and past students, therefore I have developed key phrases, tips and tricks to best help you ace your grade in a fun and easy way!

  • Biology

    Biology is what I’m most passionate about! It has inspired me to study medicine. Connecting the theory and the surrounding world generates awe for the surroundings. I love using diagrams and connecting body systems or relating botany to what we’ll see in a garden.

    This is an area that I always love teaching! My focus is to help not only widen your understanding but get you to grapple with the material and teach some fundamental skills that will help you soar in years to come.
