Math tutors in Roodepoort

Afrikaans and English. Number person or not. I am confident that I will make each and every student enjoy math more that they have in the past. With that increasing your marks will too. I am here to help you, teach you and show you the different ways of doing math, but ultimately you need to put in the work too. We got this!!

I love teaching Maths, as for my love for numbers. Because I’m equipped to help the pupil achieve their educational goals. I would define myself as a problem solver and a team worker who thrives on rising up to challenges and on achieving objectives. I am a hardworker, dilligent and never say no type of teacher. I am studying BCOM Financial accounting to become an accounting teacher. I worked as a sports teacher, and love my kids. I am an early bird and will never give up on a challenge. As someone who values and practices discipline, empathy and respect, I believe I can be a positive role model to your pupils. The way I see it, being a tutor is all about providing young people with good behavioral examples they can implement when learning and interacting with others. Because I am not committed to just a job, but to the tutor profession as a whole. I place high value on constant learning and I always take the initiative when it comes to attending conferences, workshops and talks that can prepare me to be a better tutor. Tutoring is a great way to help somebody in need.

Firstly, my teaching philosophy is to minimise the students weaknesses and teach to the students strengths. I have the skillset to identify the types of learning styles the student has and to be able to present information in a way that has the greatest effect. my main goal in tutoring is to build confidence in the student and to enhance their study skills and overall performance. I know I will be able to do this because I am a compassionate person and I am able to build a good rapport with the student. I am also empathetic, non-judgemental, enthusiastic, a good listener and most of all, patient. I am passionate about this particular subject at a primary school level and I have extensive knowledge that I would like to share to the student. In addition, I do have experience in teaching Math at a primary school level, that is why I will be the perfect candidate.

I performed excellently in high school mathematics. I achieved a civil engineering degree from the University of the Witwatersrand, during which I completed two years of engineering mathematics, building on the work I had studied in high school. I fully understand the mathematical curriculum and am fully capable of helping others to understand and break down problems and to achieve their full mathematical potential

As a student of Economics Education, I took math courses throughout my 4years at the university, and also working with students with unique learning style for over 10 years has equipped me on how to differentiate and adapt math and science curriculum base on students learning style. Having a good understanding on visual, audio and kinesthetic base-lessons to promote a deeper understanding of any subject, and knowing that a variety of stimuli together with a student interest produces effective and lasting result in learning, has always been my magic wand.

I am proficient in Maths, I have achieved good marks throughout my schooling and university courses, I also did a calculus course at University. As well as I attended Star Tutoring for Maths and took an NBT course for maths.

Mathematics was always one of my favourite subjects in high-school, mainly because of the fantastic teacher I had. He was always patient with me and helped me out in any way possible. I would love to keep his memory alive by practising the same things with other students. By working at the pace of the student and improving their mathematical abilities I hope to achieve the above.

Most people find math horrible and dread the thought of it but it really can be simple. With the right amount of effort and guidance I believe almost anyone can do math. Math is about practice. The more you practice, the easier it gets. Providing students with worksheets and exercises is most beneficial. I achieved a year average of 70% in matric.

For 12 years of teaching statistics & mathematics at many levels, from Calculus courses to teaching Business Calculations, Calculations & Statistics and Quantitative techniques and Finance, as a Lecturer, a Teaching Assistant and as Tutor, I have been constantly learning and gaining experience as to what makes an effective and a polished practitioner of the craft.
