Chelsea T - Tutor in Rynfield AH
I am a recent Psychology Honours graduate. I have approximately 4 years of tutoring experience which I have done as either a standalone tutor or through au pair work. Additionally, I have experience with individuals with learning disabilities as I have also acted as a school facilitator for the past 2.5 years. In my spare time, I am a lay counsellor at an NPO called LifeLine. Here, I offer free counselling services to those in need. I pride myself on my ability to be extremely patient in any circumstance. I am soft-hearted and soft-spoken and I cannot recall a time where I have ever shouted at a learner. I prefer hands-on work so I will always try to explain using real-life examples or models (e.g. pictures, diagrams, etc.). In every endeavour that I pursue, I do not like to disappoint myself or others, thus, I always give 110% to all that I do. I grew up (and still currently reside) on a plot, and I absolutely adore animals. I am a very active, healthy individual who enjoys exercise and sport on a daily basis. My leisure activities include crossword puzzles, drawing, and binge-watching series.

Subjects taught
-
Mathematics
I received A and B symbols for mathematics throughout my entire high school career, matriculating with a final mark of 79% (just missed the distinction!). I thoroughly enjoyed the challenging nature of maths and the logic employed in solving equations. Most of my tutoring experience lies in the tutoring of this subject (mostly primary school - CAPS & IEB).
