Subjects taught
  • Mathematics

    I have my honours degree from the University of Pretoria in Sport Science as well as my PGCE through UNISA. I am a full time grade 5 mathematics teacher at a private school in Stellenbosch. We follow a Singaporean maths curriculum, PRIME, and we have access to additional resources and excellent math content. I am a practical person, and the math subject is also very practical in nature, hence why I love teaching it so much. I have experienced maths as a subject that can be adjusted and trialed to suit an individual. Trial and error, and practice practice practice is the name of the game! I would love to encourage primary schools scholars to love the subject like I do.
