Grammar tutors in Cape Town

I believe that I am a great tutor with regards to grammar as it is something that I interact with daily due to my university work and freelance writing job. Grammar is a crucial foundation for anyone that wishes to succeed with the English language and I enjoy the constant battles that it throws our way.

Reading and writing have been a big part of my life for as long as I can remember and I have always had an appreciation for the English language. I finished matric with a 94% average and have also completed AS levels in English literature. I am able to assist with not only grammar, but literature, reading and writing too.

With reading as a past time hobby, I have developed a keen eye for grammatical order. I have editted a PHD thesis for a fellow colleague and six undergraduate thesis submissions. I am at my Masters level within the Humanties department, and therefore naturally indulge in a fair amount of reading and writing.

As an avid reader, I have a keen eye for language and grammar. I also achieved 88% for my final English matric mark. Moreover, I tutored a grade 5 and a grade 7 student in English from August to November 2017 and then again from October - November 2018. This was done on a part-time basis and I was a private tutor.

Grammar is a part of everyday life and if not understood correctly can result in improper communication. Grammar can be seen in writing and speaking. It is a skill that needs to be developed through practice of other skills and taught in conjunction with other problem areas. By allowing the learner to learn in this type of way I am joining their thought process that grammar is not exclusive to one section of the English Language.

I am happy with all aspects of English. However grammar is an important base from which to work and understand why certain things happen in any language. I love to see students work this out and come to a solution that is both correct and they understand why it is that solution.

I have always loved the English Language. English was always my favourite subject throughout school and it was always something I looked forward to learning. In high school I received over 90% for English with it being one of my highest achieving marks for a subject. I also continued with English in university and minored in etymology for a year at UCT.

I am a qualified English Teacher and will take the time explain the content to you in a fun and simple way.From personal experience, I find English needs to be taken from a different approach. An approach that is FUN, VIBRANT and YOUTHFUL. When planning English lessons my lessons are creative and interesting, being a young female I know that I have the ability to create these lessons which capture the leaners attention but continually incorporate the core features of the curriculum that learners need to obtain

With a great grasp of the English language comes the burden of grammar! This is an important part of English as without it, communication can be absolutely disastrous. Imagine saying one thing and it being interpreted as another because we forgot a little grammar? That's where I come in! I can assist with basic grammar in the English language as it's a language I've been studying and practising for years.
