I specialize in Grade 11 and Grade 12 Physical Sciences (Chemistry), specifically focusing on preparing students for the transition into university-level STEM degrees. My core focus areas are Chemical Equilibrium, Stoichiometry, Acids and Bases, and Organic Chemistry. I am fully bilingual and provide tuition in both English and Afrikaans.
I blend traditional high-tech study methods with physical reality. Digitally, I use an Honor Pad 9 to provide hyper-organized, visually engaging study plans and syllabus cheat sheets. Physically, I bring actual laboratory glassware (Erlenmeyer flasks, beakers) and safe consumables to visually demonstrate the chemistry we are calculating on the page
Chemistry often feels abstract and punishing to struggling students. I use a first-principles approach and the Socratic method. Instead of just handing them the answer, I guide them through targeted questioning to find where their logic broke down. If the math is confusing them, we stop and do a physical, safe demonstration to show them why the formula matters in the real world.
Yes, as a Biochemistry major, practical lab work is my daily environment. High school practicals are often rushed or theoretical. I bring safe, scaled-down practicals to my sessions. Whether it's using universal indicators to show pH shifts during a titration or demonstrating gas laws, I make sure the student sees the science happening live. This multimodal approach encodes the knowledge far better than a textbook can
Organic chemistry is my specialty. Many students fail it because they try to rote-memorize every reaction. I teach it like a language and a puzzle. We focus heavily on understanding functional groups and why molecules behave the way they do based on their structure. Once a student understands the "grammar" of organic chemistry, the entire section becomes an easy, logical game rather than a memory test
I approach tutoring as academic coaching. I don't just teach the high school syllabus; I teach the standard expected at the university level. Because I am currently in the BSc system, I help my students develop the rigorous study habits, scientific reasoning, and independent problem-solving skills required to not just get accepted into Medical or Engineering degrees, but to actually survive their first year.
