Study Skills tutors in Western Cape

I have spent the past 6 months tutoring people of various backgrounds, ages, and subjects. I am well suited to teaching study methods as I have found great success from previous lessons with my students. My teaching style seems to bring out the best in my students! The material is all based on application and incorporation into our own understanding. From previous experience, this works best!

Studying can be super tough, daunting and frustrating at times. But we can change that. Let's work together so we can figure out the best study techniques and methods that are best suited for you. I can provide you with tips, methods, and systems that will help you achieve the best academic results you can possibly attain!

I am a young, energetic individual with a healthy attitude towards others. I have a great passion for gaining knowledge and understanding what I’ve learnt. I am determined and driven, with attention to detail. I live a balanced lifestyle, and enjoy spending time outdoors, and with family and friends. I was always driven to pursue a career in Psychology. In 2010, I started my professional journey within the field. I obtained my BA Humanities degree majoring in Psychology from the University of Stellenbosch in 2012 . During this period, I volunteered at rural daycare organisations, NGO's, and animal shelters. I also worked as a Doctor's assistant during holidays. In 2013, I received my Psychology Honours (with distinction) at Rhodes University. I was also a Psychology Tutor for students. I volunteered at the Fort England Mental Institution on a weekly basis to expose patients to the world outside of the institution. I also served as a voluntary psychology counsellor on the Phelophepa Healthcare Train where I counselled over 20 clients and delivered over 15 workshops for communities with scarce to no medical resources. From 2014-2015 I completed a Masters degree in health and well-being design; working with the youth to develop a mobile application focused on providing relevant health and well-being information for the youth (specifically focusing on emotional needs). I also completed the MAD4MAD (Mobile Application Design for Medical Application Development) Mini Intensive Course, and attended and presented at the ISD4D (Information System Development for Development) research conference in Mozambique. I facilitated multiple youth development workshops pertaining to health and well-being as part of different community service initiatives. I also attended and presented the 13th Participatory Design Conference in Namibia - volunteering in the informal housing communities. In 2015, I completed my Psychometrics internship through the University of Stellenbosch; and passed the HPCSA board examination. During this time I grew particularly fond of Hesketh treatment and rehabilitation center. I volunteered there on a weekly basis - administering, scoring, and providing feedback to patients that may assist in a successful career. Currently, I am a freelance Psychometrist (Independent Practice) and Life Skills lecturer/workshop facilitator. I administer psychometric assessments and give feedback to students at the University of Western Cape as part of a grade-improvement program to assist students in creating a bright future. I also deliver workshops on all Life Skills (such as 'Healthy communication and Conflict management', 'HIV/AIDS awareness', 'Presentation skills', etc.) and Office/Business Skills. Lastly, I administer the newest full personality and/or career assessments

I enjoy reading, blogging, horse-riding and teaching. I am passionate about history and biology as well as English writing and literature. I like to teach students about these passions in the hopes that it too will inspire them. Being excited about a subject is the first step to success.

I am a 25 year old female residing in the Southern Suburbs in Cape Town. I hold an Honour's degree in Psychology and I am a Registered Psychometrist. I hope to become a Counseling Psychologist specializing in the area of children and development. I place high value on education and thoroughly enjoy assisting others to learn. As well as Psychology, I love the English language. I am passionate, enthusiastic, energetic and reliable.

I have a TEFL (Teaching English Foreign Language) certificate and have a degree in Sports Science. I've been a tutor since 2015 and have worked with students from Grade 1, 2, 4, 6 - 8. I've also been facilitating a 13 year old girl with Asperger Syndrome. I attend most school classes with her and assist her with executive skills and so forth.

I am a patient person with a passion for helping children reach their full potential. I am friendly and confident.
