Subjects taught
  • Managerial Accounting

    Over the past 11 years, I have been an accounting lecturer and tutor across all levels to students of various backgrounds. I have had the privilege of lecturing and tutoring at a hand-full of learning institutions. I have always wanted to add value . As a school-pupil I did not understand accounting, at all! It was only in university that it clicked. When I teach and facilitate classes and tutoring, I think of what it was like when I was on the other side of the classroom, and what I needed to understand at that time in terms of the prescribed text. It is always my goal for students to understand and not just get through the work. And I am very patient.
