Sea Point, Cape Town

I have a Bachelor of Business Science degree, Masters in Business Science (Economics) degree, and a PGCE (SP & FET) all from UCT. The PGCE is a Post Graduate Certificate in Education, specialising in teaching Mathematics and Economics to high school learners. In other words, I am a qualified teacher too, and so I am trained to identify particular areas of Mathematics that learners are struggling with and how best to help them succeed. Prior to becoming a high school teacher, I worked as an Economist doing research for the public and private sector. I have many years teaching experience, having taught Economics to undergraduate and postgraduate students at UCT for roughly 6 years, and more recently, teaching Mathematics and Economics to Grade 7 to 12 learners. I have been employed as a Maths teacher at both government and private schools, as well as most recently at an online school, teaching Maths to Grade 8 – Grade 12s. I have been doing private tutoring of Maths, Economics and running SAT Preparation classes for the last 5 years. I therefore am experienced in tutoring learners online -mostly using Zoom, but also Skype and Google Hangouts. My teaching philosophy focuses primarily on building confidence in my learners. I am a patient, calm and caring educator, who takes a genuine interest in all her learners academic progress. I try to make my lessons fun and interactive, and I encourage you to ask as many questions as you need to in order to fully grasp a concept. In my opinion, if a learner hasn’t understood a concept properly, it is usually the teacher’s fault for not explaining that concept in a way the learner can understand and relate to. I also don’t like to focus on the rote learning of Maths (or Economics) “rules”. In my opinion, if you understand WHY and HOW things are done the way they are, it enables you to link Maths concepts, and the “rules” will become second-nature to you. I enjoy scuba-diving, fishing (catch and release) and gardening.
