Tutors in Somerset East

I am retired, but still give Maths and Life Science extra classes in the afternoons, specialising in gr 10 to 12. I do have gr 9 kids extra for maths as well. While I was teaching, I took part in a programme facilitated by the Nelson Mandela University, where a few teachers taught Maths and Science to under-performing schools on Friday afternoons and Saturday mornings. i was part of the programme until I retired and found it highly rewarding. I am still healthy and cycle in my free time. I am fully aware of the changes that have been made to the CAPS document. I prefer teaching one on one to teaching a big group, because it is easier to identify gaps and aspects that need to be addressed. I also like to be challenged by strong learners. I will not always have all the answers immediately, but I do make sure that I get to answer learners very quickly on complicated questions. An opportunity like this will suit my current lifestyle perfectly. My wife still teaches full-time.

I am from a small town, Somerset East, in the Eastern Cape. I have a BCom degree in Macro Economics and History from the Nelson Mandela University in Port Elizabeth. I am fluent in Afrikaans and English, and have studied basic German at university. I was lucky enough to have travelled extensively through 14 European and 5 Southern African countries. My interests are politics, current affairs, photography, history, pencil drawing, woodwork and computer systems. Currently, I am a financial bookkeeper. Thank you for being so kind as to peruse my profile.
