Ntsikayomzi M - Tutor in Van Riebeeck Park
I think the biggest barrier to learning is students' anxieties around subjects, especially Mathematics. I aim to create an environment where mistakes can be made so learning and understanding can actually occur. I recently completed by Bachelor of Engineering (Industrial Honours) at Stellenbosch University having done some extra Mathematics and Physics modules along the way :D

Subjects taught
-
Mathematics
I appreciate that most frequently, students struggle with Mathematics out of anxiety and a poor structure of understanding. My tutoring style aims to address these particular issues in addition to providing a source of knowledge. In 2019 alone, I tutored over 100 hours of Mathematics subjects at university, whether as a classroom assistant or in private tutoring. In addition, I have experience informally tutoring high school students.

Physics
I appreciate that most frequently, students struggle with Physics because they do not understand the underlying Mathematics and because they have not been given an intuitive understanding, My tutoring style aims to address these particular issues in addition to providing a source of knowledge. In 2019 alone, I tutored over 100 hours of Physics subjects at university in private tutoring.
