Hi there :)

I tutor Mathematics for Grades 6 to 9 and English HL up to matric. I am based in the Southern Suburbs of Cape Town.

I have 3 years of experience in tutoring Mathematics, including Grades 6 to 9. My tutoring experience took place in various settings and circumstances, such as volunteering at underfunded primary schools and tutoring younger students through my own high school. I am familiar with setting up lesson plans and working with different schools' teaching techniques.

My tutoring style varies depending on the needs of the student. In general, I first go through and explain the theories they are struggling with, and then work on real examples from homework, past tests, and possible extension questions.

I obtained the second-highest Matric mark for English HL in my grade. I have my Western Province Half Colours for Academia, Full Western Province Colours for Service in my Community, as well as receiving the Principal's Award for Outstanding Service.

I am very passionate about working with children and teenagers and making their schooling career as easy as possible. I am very patient and kind. I understand the limitations and learning difficulties many students face in different communities.

I have completed my first year of university, majoring in Psychology and Sociology. I believe the modules I took in my first year of Psychology are beneficial in working with children, as I completed multiple research papers and tests on Childhood Development. This has given me a deeper understanding when working with children.

I am interested in studying Occupational Therapy, which also branches into not only working with children but assisting children with learning difficulties in academic settings. Read less

All students and environments are different; that's why being flexible and observant are important traits when tutoring. My tutoring style includes these traits, but also follows the basic outline of explaining theories in a concise manner, going through examples in homework and past tests, and then revisiting previous mistakes the student made. This basic outline allows me to still be flexible in terms of how much time the student needs for different areas and monitoring their progress. Read less
