Jaylin d - Tutor in Henley on Klip

I am a young and passionate young woman with a love for psychology and children. I aim to broaden my experience in education and child-care in preparation for a future in psychology. I am dedicated and driven, and I believe in exploring various approaches to problems in order to meet everyone’s needs. I matriculated from Roedean School SA with 7 distinctions and went on to graduate from the University of the Witwatersrand in BA General with distinction, majoring in Psychology and Music History. Later, I received my Honours in Psychology at the same university. In 2020, I studied a Post Graduate Certificate in Education (PGCE) through Stadio Institute of Education, and I am now a qualified teacher. Despite it being a principal aim of the latest CAPS curriculum, many learners feel that their individuality is overlooked in the classroom. I believe that - as a teacher - one needs to acknowledge and cater for the different learning paces and strengths in the same class. Thus, I believe in integrating various learning styles; first building a foundation and then letting my learners explore how they understand concepts best. Therefore, I believe that patience is indeed a virtue, and I promote co-operative learning in the classroom. When it comes to extra support, I prefer to build on the learner’s classwork as a foundation, and then discovering and providing for specific areas that the learner finds difficult. I have found that breaking a subject down into specific problem areas helps learners understand concepts better and be more capable in building on that knowledge in the future.
