Mathematics

Grade 1 - Grade 12 Cambridge

I have IEB Mathematics experience, and also IB experience which I got from teaching Grade 10 - 12 Mathematics in China. I also have CAPS Mathematics experience up to Grade 12 as well as Cambridge Curriculum until Grade 12 level.

Physical Science

Grade 1 - Grade 11 NSC

Physics and Maths are closely related and I feel these two subjects can help each other to excel. As I have a B.Tech in Civil Engineering I understand the mechanics behind Physics and how to explain them from a practical perspective. I taught Cambridge Physics IGCSE 2
