Tamaryn A - Tutor in Klipheuwel

Hello! I am Tamaryn. I am a qualified physiotherapist and a well-trained mommy:) I have a real passion for teaching and have found myself in teaching positions of varying platforms. I completed a 3-month (NQF 8) certificate in Teaching in the Health Professions. Sharing knowledge patiently is a skill that I value. I home-school our two children and learning has become fun in our home. We are always learning. Something fun about me...I love chocolate and coffee!

Home-schooler

Teaching our beautiful children brings such joy to me. Learning never ends! While we wait for the bath water to run we play a game of "story telling". Our children love this game but it goes to show that grammar, sentence structure, memorisation and literature can be learned through a game, while the bath water runs.

Physiotherapist

My day to day is filled up by variety of things. I home school our children and work as a locum physiotherapist. I used to be involved in the administrative work of our family which kept me very busy but now that I am not involved in the administration side of things I have time to tutor and share knowledge.

Education
2004-01-01 - 2008-12-31
BSc Physiotherapy - Stellenbosch University

I am a registered physiotherapist. I now only work part-time as a physiotherapist and would love to fill my other available time slots with teaching opportunities. I believe my education has been broad and in-depth. I also completed 2 years of a BA (Majors: English & History) degree through UNISA as a hobby.

Subjects taught
  • English Literature

    Despite not completing my BA degree (Major: English and History), I completed two years of this degree as a "fun side line hobby". I was working as a physiotherapist while studying English for fun. Literature is an absolute favourite.

  • English as a foreign Language

    Learning English as a foreign language could seem very daunting. Are you feeling nervous about starting a conversation or maintaining a conversation? I am a bubbly, easy-to-talk-to person and making conversation comes naturally to me. I can assist you with this. I look forward to using topics of interest as a medium for learning English.

  • Biology

    I have an absolute passion for Biology. I was taught by an incredibly enthusiastic teacher and he brought Biology to life. As a physiotherapist, Biology lies at the heart of my skills and knowledge. I would love to convey my passion for Biology over to others.
