Megan F - Tutor in Barbeque Downs
My name is Megan and I was born and raised in Johannesburg. I went to St Mary's School in Waverly. After matriculating I took a gap year and worked in the hospitality industry abroad. In 2011 I began my Bachelor of Arts degree at Rhodes University. In 2014 I graduated majoring in English and Photojournalism. For the next 5 years, I worked in the corporate photography industry, photographing travel trade events, and moving on to work for Edcon, photographing apparel in the studio for the eCommerce website. Leaving the corporate world towards the end of 2019, I completed my TESOL certificate and flew to Thailand to teach English to Korean children at a summer camp for one month. I thoroughly enjoyed my experience teaching and decided to make a career change. Upon returning home due to the pandemic, I began teaching English to Chinese children online. Although quite challenging adjusting to teaching online, I really enjoy teaching the younger students and seeing how excited they become when they get something right. At about the same time I began tutoring English as a foreign language to international adults online and still am today. Through my travels, I was able to meet a few of them which was really a great experience. Currently studying a PGCE in Foundation Phase online through Cornerstone Institute, I have just returned from a year of teaching in Thailand. I am a very organized, hard-working professional who is passionate about getting as much practical experience as possible to become the best teacher that I can be.
