Estelle J - Tutor in Zwartkop
I am a teacher and graduated (CumLaude) with a B-ed degree. I am a homeschooling parent to three energetic boys. I have a passion for Afrikaans, which is also my mother tongue and I love teaching children. I thrive on that moment when they reply with insight: "Oh, is that how it works!" I do have the patience and enthusiasm which is needed when teaching young children. I have been tutoring Afrikaans for the past seven years on a one-on-one basis from Grade R to 7. I offer online tutoring via GoogeMeet, Skype and Zoom. I teach Afrikaans 1st language and Afrikaans 2nd language.

Afrikaans
I do an initial assessment to understand the leaner’s general level of proficiency, wherafter an analysis is done to identify specific areas of improvements. Tailormade, individual classes to assist with moving the learner to the next level, while addressing identified areas of improvement. I use animations, characters, rhymes and mind maps to stimulate interest, create context and tranfer knowledge. I teach through associations, using both visual and audio sensors to assist with understanding memory retention. I focus on reading and writing, and pronunciation where required.
