Miche S - Tutor in Rondebosch
My name is Miché September and I am currently completing the dissertation component of my master’s degree in the Section of Organisational Psychology, in the School of Management Studies, at the University of Cape Town. I previously studied at Rhodes University, where I completed both my BA honours and an undergraduate degree in Organisational Psychology. As a postgraduate student, I believe in the power of diverse thinking. Given our current state of events, I am best suited to work in a fast-paced/digital environment utilising a variety of my skills including quantitative/qualitative research analyses, innovation and I deliver spectacular presentations while creatively engaging with students. Independent in taking action, I am able to detect, observe and solve challenges when required. “The devil is in the detail”, meticulous and thorough, I foresee a high-quality outcome for all prospective assignments. Eager to transfer knowledge and equip students with the necessary skills, I am able to work well with others. Given the opportunity, I am able to assist with the goal of helping students thrive and unlock their potential to best achieve their academic objectives.

Experience
Vacation Student
As part of my vacation work experience at the ENSafrica offices in Sandton, I was placed in both the Corporate Commercial and Dispute Resolution departments. This experience provided me with the opportunity to understand how corporate law firms operate, the importance of drafting agreements efficiently and the value of client relationships across multiple global jurisdictions.
Examination Assistant
I have had the opportunity of performing any duties required of me in every division of the Marking Centre. These include but are not limited to the operative and functioning administration work of the Marking Centre Manager, the Irregularities Officer and Chief Marker. The scope of an examination assistant expected of me to perform any reasonable task, as allocated to me by any official of the Marking Centre. These tasks were to ensure the smooth running Marking Centre and the management of National Senior Certificate subject examination scripts.
Sub-Warden
I understood the role of Sub-Warden to entail three main duties, namely assisting the warden in the operation of residence and to maintain a conductive scholarly environment. To fulfil an interpersonal role with students and to perform a liaison role between Hall, House Wardens and students.
Tutor
My past work experience includes being an administrative assistant (College of Accounting) and tutor at the University of Cape Town. As both an admin assistant and tutor my duties included but were not limited to ensuring that the student learning environment was facilitated. As a current student, I could relate to the challenges they faced, however in my capacity as an employee I had to ensure that the highest standard of integrity and confidentiality was maintained.

Human Resources
As a graduate and behavioural specialist in the area of Organisational Psychology, the nature of my field entails the study of human behaviour. From a psychological perspective, my interest lies in human decision making, risk assessment and consumer behaviour. Given this consideration, my knowledge allows me to understand and integrate business models within a business space. My top three skills include delivering presentations, conducting research (interpreting both quantitative & qualitative data) as well as the organisation and execution of projects.
