Bio
I'm an MSc student studying Applied Mathematics with experience helping people improve their marks. When not studying I'm off to the sea where I snorkel, sail and SCUBA dive as often as possible.
I'm patient and good at explaining concepts using visual explanations as well as just words. I like to show rather than tell people how to do things and find that letting someone find an answer for themselves is far more valuable than just telling them that answer.

Mathematics
Grade 1 - Grade 12 IEBI have tutored maths to students from grade 9 to 12 both privately and as part of a program organised by my teachers at high school. My students improved their marks by 20% on average.
Physical Science
Grade 1 - Grade 12 IEBI loved Physical Science so much that I went on to study physics at the University of Cape Town. I have tutored people coming into the IEB system from both Cambridge and NSC, helping them adjust and improve their marks.
