Tutors in South Africa

To be an excellent teacher you need to be adaptable, creative, patient and you need to be able to understand and accept that each individual has their own learning path. You need to have a wealth of knowledge about the different teaching methods to enrich learners. Through my years of experience, I have developed these skills and the tools needed to bring the best out of every student. I also know the importance of adding a fun element to learning. Each learner is different and responds to learning in a different way. It is my responsibility to ensure I find out what teaching methods suits you and adjust my teaching to your learning style. I want to create a love for learning and turn people into life long learners who never stop wanting to learn. I am an experienced school teacher with 9 years experience, I have taught all primary school subjects but my passions lie with English and Mathematics. I have 2 years experience with private tutoring and 2 years experience as an Au Pair, so teaching are my thing.

I studied Maths and Physics at university (2nd and 1st year respectively) while studying towards my Geography and Computer Science degree, and have a solid grasp on the fundamentals that make up the high school curriculum. I am passionate about these empowering tools, and find that one-on-one lessons are a more effective way to explain their seemingly abstract concepts. I try to develop my students' personal understanding of the subjects so that they can think through problems in a way that makes sense to them as individuals. I tend to use analogies and visual methods to familiarize students with new content.

My name is Gabriella Tottle. I recently graduated cum laude from Stellenbosch University with a Bachelor of Education degree. I specialised in the intermediate and senior phase, while majoring in the subjects of Social Science and Natural Science. However, even though these are my specialisation subjects, I am still able to teach the prescribed subjects as required for Gr 4-9 and have had experience teaching all school subjects during my practicals while studying and through my four (almost five) years of tutoring. I am very strong academically, having been in the top 3 Intermediate and Senior Phase students in all my years of studying at Stellenbosch University. I have also received the Golden Key award for my academic achievements during my studies. I am a very hard working, punctual, organised, responsible and a respectable young lady, who is always prepared to go the extra-mile. I am a very patient person who will try many approaches to allow a learner to understand their work. I am an individual who has a love for knowledge and enjoys inspiring others to develop their own love for learning. I do not only believe that learners must focus on knowledge from a textbook but be exposed to knowledge elsewhere as well. Whether it be interesting facts, general knowledge or knowledge based on interests. I believe that everyone has the ability to learn and succeed and believe that learning should be fun. Despite my experience of teaching gained through my observations and school practicum, I have been involved in tutoring learners, throughout my years of studying. Through my practicals and tutoring experience, I have worked with learners who have ADHD, verbal dyspraxia, impaired hearing, poor levels of concentration and overall learners who struggle to understand content in a school setting. I have tutored learners from varying grades, such as: Gr. 1, Gr. 2, Gr. 4, Gr. 5, Gr. 6, Gr. 7, Gr. 8 and Gr. 9. The majority of these learners I have worked and am still working with over periods of two too three years. My tutoring includes help with homework and assistance in projects or tasks. I have also been involved in helping learners to study and prepare for their examinations. This would include teaching them about ways to study, how to create a study timetable and how to break down one’s content so that it is not overwhelming. My work experience, thus far, has also given me the opportunity to discover methods of teaching that are exciting and work for learners with barriers to learning. Most importantly, I have learnt how to ensure that learners enjoy learning and develop a thirst for knowledge just as I have.

I am currently a homeschooling tutor for grade 3 and 7 students and have 5 years of experience teaching English as a foreign language, both overseas in South Korea and in South Africa. I love engaging with students to foster an encouraging and safe learning environment. I believe that developing the students confidence to learn new work and try new challenges is the best way to foster a love for learning that goes beyond the subject I am helping them learn.

I am a fun, bubbly person that will make learning easier. i am very patient and try to help as much as possible. to give you the maximum out of your lessons i will go the extra mile to make sure you understand what is being taught

I am a Spanish and ESL teacher at the North American International School. I have been teaching Spanish since 2010.

I can help you improve your Spanish or to prepare you to write your DELE international Exam. I have been teaching ESL for 4 years from beginners to intermediate phase. I prefer working with children but I can also teach adults improve their language skills. I love languages and I believe that learning a language is fun and interesting.

Animal lover, bookworm, total introvert! I'm currently doing my Masters in Animal Production Physiology at UP and enjoying every minute of it. I love being able to take what I have learned and carry it over to someone still learning, which is why I enjoy tutoring so much! I love to see people exceed, excel and reach heights they never thought they could.
