English Language and Literature tutors in Rondebosch

Love the English language and received a distinction for English. Love Accounting, received a distinction for accounting and currently studying final year in accounting at UCT.

I am a second year Bachelor of Science student at University of Cape Town.

My name is Lindsay and I am a friendly, hard-working person who is passionate about educating the youth of Cape Town. I am currently working as a Primary school teacher, teaching Grade 4. I absolutely love my job! Besides work my interests include spending time with friends, family and pets, doing outdoor activities such as going to the beach or walking my dogs and I also enjoy reading and watching movies. I consider myself to be a very down-to-earth person who is easy to get along with and very organised.

I specialise in English and History, Specifically focusing on exam preparation and intensive learning- giving and helping students various strategies. My expertise range from SACE to Cambridge and others.

The English language has always been something I've thoroughly enjoyed. Being a keen reader and literature enthusiast since a young age, I naturally excelled in the study of the language. I spent most of my high school career in the Ad English stream, a separate syllabus focusing on more advanced language and literature content. In this time I have developed a keen understanding of English grammar, concord and vocabulary. Beyond the technical, my writing and poetry skills leave me more than capable of assisting any student looking to improve their grades. English is often a subject that brings down students who excel in other, more analytical subjects. I feel that this is truly unnecessary and that I can provide the knowledge and insight required to succeed in the study of the English language.

I have a very academic approach to the language but also a huge appreciation for it. I write for the UCT newspaper and I've read and studied classics such as "War & Peace", " Anna Karenina" and "Don Quixote". I'm also a patient teacher and will absolutely love to tutor anyone who wants to have a closer look at the language.

I have tutored English for the past three years and I have learnt a lot about helping others to better engage with the subject. It was one fo my favourite subjects throughout my school career and I am an avid reader as well and I love doing my best to make the subject as enjoyable as possible.
