English Literature tutors in Pretoria

I am 27 years old. My interests are Chess, Acoustic Guitar, Writing and Reading. I am an optimistic and committed individual.

I competed in the Afrikaans Olympiad in high school and did really well. I also speak Afrikaans and English at home. I am currently a second year student at university and taking English as a second year subject. I have also taken an education subject last year as I want to become a teacher although I am studying languages at the moment.

I presently reside in the Pretoria East area

I am the best tutor for this subject because I have a national diploma in Language Practice and English is one of my major modules. My English results are outstanding. I passed my second year English with a distinction therefore I strongly believe that I can be the best tutor for this subject.

I love poems and reading. I want to hep children realize the importance of reading. I loved this subject in school and achieved a 85% for English. I love to teach children how to read and how to analyze poems

I am passionate about English literature and grammar. And during my studies I have absorbed many new skills that I would like to teach others that would make it easier to understand English and appreciate it.

I majored in English Literature for my bachelors degree. I am absolutely passionate about the world of characters. Immersing oneself into the world of others and getting a glimpse into the mindset of the author. Literature serves as a great critique in challenging societal norms that were common in a certain era.

English Literature is really just about stories and how you interpret them. As I studied Creative Writing on postgraduate level, I am able to assist you to see beyond the letters to the spine of the story.

I studied BA Law at the University of Pretoria from 2017-2019, majoring in English Literature. I received a distinction for English in first and second semester of my final year, as well as in matric. I believe I am best suited to tutor this subject because of the comprehensive knowledge and skill that I have acquired in the English language throughout the years I have had the pleasure of learning about it. I am particularly passionate about English Literature because of its personal impact on my recent life. The question isn't so much, "how much do we know about Shakespeare" but rather, "how well does Shakespeare know us?" The ability of literature to preserve itself over centuries stems from the fact that if you remove the words and punctuation, what lies at the heart of literature is human experience. And human experience is what connects us all universally, regardless of our differences. What was human experience in the 17th/18th century, remains human experience now. I made a choice to major in English Literature when I had a variety of modules to choose from. I hope you will make the decision to choose me as your tutor despite the variety of tutors at your disposal. Tuks has equipped me with sufficient practice and an abundance of experience in this subject and I am excited to be able to utilize what I have gained to help someone else better their understanding of English Literature, as well as enrich their life as much as English Literature has enriched mine.
