Marne M - Tutor in Oranjezicht

I am a third-year marketing communications student living in Cape Town. I love being outside, swimming, and dancing, and learning new things. I am very good at explaining complex concepts and breaking down information. My talent is my ability to learn, dissect, and teach new information and I am a quick learner. I work well with all personality types and understand how different minds work, especially when it comes to academics. I think learning can be fun and rewarding if it is approached with an open mind and some creativity.

Subjects taught
  • English Literature

    I understand literature and how to dissect pieces of writing. I have a good vocabulary and can think abstractly, which makes it easy for me to understand creative writing. I also understand and constantly educate myself on human behaviour and how the mind works, which means that I understand emotional perspectives in creative writing.

  • General Maths & Science

    I am good with numbers and understand scientific concepts easily. I find these two subjects to be incredibly interesting and have always been fascinated with numbers and scientific concepts. I will go out of my way to make sure that a student understands the work we do in this field, as I know how important it is for their development.

  • Afrikaans

    I am a native Afrikaans speaker. I did very well in Afrikaans language and literature classes in high school. I understand the more complex language used in Afrikaans literature and have the ability to explain it to someone who does not.

  • Economics

    I have the ability to both think of systems on a macro and micro level, meaning that I'm good at both understanding and explaining economic concepts. I have been looking after myself financially for three years now, meaning I have real life experience and relevant examples to use during lessons.

  • Physical Science

    I have an aptitude for scientific subjects and am very good with numbers, therefore I can be an excellent science tutor. I am also very passionate about this subject and quick to learn new work that I might not know yet.
