Tutors in South Africa

Hi there! My name is Christine and I am currently on the path to becoming an educational psychologist and registered psychometrist. I have a passion for education, psychology, psychometry and research. I also have a love for literature, poetry and film! I matriculated in 2015 with 5 distinctions, English being one of them, from Holy Rosary School (in Edenvale, JHB). I attended Holy Rosary School from Grade R to Matric. Since leaving school, I have been an English tutor both privately as well as for several companies, and I have also given study skills seminars in my time as a tutor. I was also a research design and analysis tutor during my Honours year at university. I have thoroughly enjoyed my time as a tutor so far - it is incredibly fulfilling to be able to help students reach their highest potential! I believe in the power of one-on-one assistance because I feel that every student learns differently and has different skills and strengths that might be lost in the hustle and bustle of the classroom. One-on-one assistance creates a space where those skills, strengths, and differences in learning can be used, developed and celebrated for maximum learning potential. I look forward to continuing my tutoring journey here with Turtlejar! I currently have three university qualifications, and am waiting to hear if I have been accepted to begin my fourth! I have been a student at the University of the Witwatersrand for the last five years, where I achieved my Bachelor of Arts degree, Bachelor of Arts Honours degree, and PGCE. In my undergraduate BA degree, I majored in Psychology and English. I then went on to complete my BA Honours degree in Psychology. Over the course of my studies, I discovered that my passion for psychology became focused on developmental psychology, children and education. After my Honours degree, I decided to complete my Postgraduate Certificate in Education (PGCE) - I am now qualified to teach English from grade 7 through to Matric, as well as Life Orientation from grade 7 to grade 9. I am hoping to go on to complete my Psychometry practicum which will qualify me as a psychometrist, and then to complete my Masters degree and become a qualified educational psychologist (the ultimate goal!) While my career path is centered around psychology and education at large, the English subject will always hold a special place in my heart! I am delighted to be able to engage with it as a tutor, and to hopefully share my passion for the subject with potential students!

I think learning should be fun. I'm passionate about teaching you. I have years of experience in both studying and practicing accounting. I'm patient and kind. And will introduce different ways of learning.

I am a kumon assistant instructor where I teach English and math to children between the ages of 3 and 8. I have a passion for helping people and am a qualified life coach. I am currently furthering my studies by doing a higher certificate in counselling and communication skills through SACAP with the hope of doing a bachelor's study next year for psychology. I would love to help primary school children to achieve the marks they want with my assistantace and patience. I have a genuine love for children.
