Khanyisile N - Tutor in South Crest

I’m a final year education student. I’m specializing in the Senior and FET phases, with English and Geography as my main teaching subjects. I’m described as a kind, down to earth person who loves working with children. I’m also studying psychology to be more effective in my teaching. I go the extra mile and love to see everyone reaching the “AHA!” moment.

Subjects taught
  • Geography

    Geography is one of my teaching subjects within my Bachelor of Education degree. I chose it because I was interested in getting more than a surface level of knowledge in it and have a deep love for the subject. Geography is often underestimated or looked at as an impossible subject. I have mastered the skills necessary to understand and explore it and also to teach it. I think Geography is such a useful subject for all to get acquainted with because of its many branches. Many life lessons, values and necessary skills can also be learned from this subject. I aim to foster these within my approach to teaching and tutoring the subject.

  • English

    I have enjoyed and performed well in English since high school. It is the gateway language to the world, and I want to assist as many people as possible to appreciate and ace it. English is also one of my teaching subjects within my Bachelor of Education degree. I chose it because I was interested in getting more than a surface level of knowledge in it. I also believe that I will be the best tutor for this because I understand our context as South Africans and therefore am proficient in other languages too. English can form part of our identities as Africans without the exclusion of our other diverse languages.
