Bio

I am currently completing my Masters in Genomic Medicine at Wits. I am passionate in seeking knowledge and helping others learn.

I have been tutoring maths and science for the past two years. During high school, I would spend time after school helping my peers in work they did not fully understand. During high school I was in charge of the first aid team and would help students who were injured. This taught me patience, how to remain calm on stressful situations, and to think quickly to find a solution.

Subjects

  • School Tutoring

Life Sciences (Biology)

Grade 1 - Grade 12 NSC

I am a third year biomedical science student at the University of Witwatersrand. I have a broad understanding of life sciences and am skilled at note-taking and study skills, therefore making it easier to learn large amounts of content

Mathematics

Grade 1 - Grade 9 NSC

I enjoy problem solving and helping students develop their problem solving skills that come when doing mathematics. I have been tutoring mathematics for two years.

Physical Science

Grade 1 - Grade 12 NSC

Physics was one of my subjects during my first year of university and so I have a deeper understanding of the content covered in school which makes me equipped to help students approach the questions and gain confidence in answering the questions

Chemistry

History

Grade 1 - Grade 12 NSC

I’d help my peers by guiding them to pick of the relevant information to back up their argument and develop and structure their answers and essays. I believe I am equipped to tutor history and build confidence in students as well as assist students who may have trouble articulating their thoughts.

English

Grade 1 - Grade 12

Understanding how to answer different questions asked in an English exam and analysing different pieces of literature helped me to develop critical thinking skills. I want to encourage students to feel comfortable expressing their opinions and think abstractly.
