Alana v - Tutor in Erasmusrand

I have been tutoring high school Mathematics for four years and university statistics for two. I am currently doing my Honours in Mathematical Statistics at the University of Pretoria. I am results driven and I love challenging myself - so if a student doesn't understand immediately, I will keep trying to explain in a different way until it makes sense to the student. I am also great with helping students develop a study plan that works for them and helping them cope with stress.

Subjects taught
  • Mathematics

    I have been tutoring Mathematics and Statistics for four years. I am currently doing my Honours in Mathematical Statistics. I have always thought of Mathematics as my favourite subject at school and I received a distinction for Mathematics in matric. I am also passionate about making students feel less confused and way more confident when it comes to doing maths and mathematics examinations. I believe that there is no such thing as: "I cannot do math", you just haven't been taught to do maths in a way that makes sense to you yet.
