Geography tutors in Pretoria

My name is Valerie T and originally from Zimbabwe raised in a family of education orietented people .I am a fun dedicated lady who enjoy helping other people . It makes me feel like am fulfilling my purpose in life. Also currently pursuing my diploma in Civil Engineering .

Born in Johannesburg, attended high school overseas, interested in travel, choir conducting, ex-brass player (trumpet and French horn), I am now retired. I have a lifetime's experience working with all ages from 12 to mature adult.

I am a 32 year old woman who is very passionate about education. I hold a BSc Honours in Environmental Management and aspiring to register for Masters in 2021. I have had some challenges with my studies in the past, but through consulting with my lecturers and attending private tutorial sessions i have conquered those challenges. Hence i know the importance of tutorial sessions and i am patient with those i tutor, i assist them with their work and ensure that they stay inspired and encouraged to excel in their studies. I can tutor Mathematics and Natural/Physical Science for secondary school pupils and Environmental Management modules for those in tertiary.

I have a BSc in Geology from the University of Pretoria and I am an old boy of Pretoria Boys' High School. I myself am aware of the struggles associated with understanding certain concepts in maths and science, and therefore I have a great deal of empathy and patience for students who do not grasp new concepts as easily as others. I aim to exercise fundamental understanding so that students begin to enjoy what was initially a source of unnecessary stress.

Nadia was born in Kempton Park, Johannesburg on 02 October 1991. She graduated from the University of Pretoria with a BSc. in Geography in April 2014; followed by a BSc. (Hons) in Environmental Analysis and Management also at the University of Pretoria in April 2015. She is currently completing het MSc. in Hydrology at Rhodes University. While still completing her undergraduate degree, Nadia started working as a part time Geographic Information System (GIS) Technician at AfricaScope in December 2011. She became a permanent employee in 2013 when her study courses became less. She started as a full-time Geographic Sourcing Analyst at TomTom (Africa) in March 2014 while completing her Honours degree. She became a tutor in 2011 due to her interest in educating the youth and focused mainly on creating an interest in learning Geography and science amongst high school students (grade 10 to grade 12). In 2012 she became a teaching assistant at the University of Pretoria for undergraduate students taking second year physical geography and urban geography courses. In May 2015, Nadia joined the CSIR as part of a scholarship program during which she will complete her MSc. undertaking research on “Quantification of water resources uncertainties in two sub-basins of the Limpopo River Basin”. She will also take part in research regarding the impact of climate change on the water resources in the Limpopo River Basin, due to her interest in climate change and the modelling thereof. Her interest in climate change and the use of data to make scientific ideas more accessible to the general public motivated her to compete in a Hackaton, known as Agrichack, competition in Durban from 28 November to 2 December 2015. She, along with 3 partners (Sean Cullen, Victoria Rautenbach, Danie Jooste (as support)), created a mobile application that will help the agricultural sector to adapt to climate change in the future. She and her team presented their idea at the Global Forum for Innovation in Agriculture, Africa Edition (GFIA Africa) and won the prize for the climate change category. The prototype will now be completed and will be released (for free) by CTA so that anyone can determine how different crop types will be influenced by climate change and in turn crop farmers and even government can plan for the future.

I'm currently studying mechanical engineering at the university of Pretoria. i matriculated with seven distinctions including 100% in physical sciences and 98% in mathematics.I have very flexible teaching styles depending on the person i'm teaching and can easily adapt to the different learner types.

Im a young lady who esteems education and share the same idea as Nelson Mandela that Education is a weapon which can be used to change the world. Im academically competent and I love to see other people excell in their academic career. I am studying towards a Bsc(B.Eng Honors) Metallurgical Engineering.

I am an agent for change. My aim is to assist students and learners to understand concepts better so they tap into their ultimate potential of producing good results.
