Bio

I am a Computational Astrophysics Masters student at the University of the Western Cape. My passions include Physics, Machine Learning, Astronomy and Anime.

Throughout my academic journey, I have consistently engaged with peers and mentored fellow students, honing my ability to convey ideas effectively. I understand the importance of patience and clarity in teaching, ensuring that students grasp fundamental principles before delving into advanced topics.

Education

• 2018 - 2021: BSc and BSc Honours in Mathematical Sciences.
• 2020 - 2021: Research Experiences in Computational Particle Physics, Machine Learning.
• 2020 - 2021: Online Tutor

My Proudest
Achievements

• I graduated from high school at the top of my circuit. I have a BSc degree triple majoring in Physics, Mathematics and Computational and Applied Mathematics. I just recently completed a BSc Honours degree in Physics (with distinction).

Subjects

  • School Tutoring

Mathematics

Grade 1 - Grade 12 NSC

I have a degree in 3 maths-based majors, this makes me experienced in the subject in general. I know both how it feels to be competent and how it feels to struggle in the subject.

Physical Science

Grade 1 - Grade 12 NSC

My career is in physics (I'm doing my honours in physics this year), and as such it is the subject which I am the most passionate about. I like to think I know the important parts that your teacher/examiner probably wants you to understand.

Life Sciences (Biology)

Grade 1 - Grade 12 NSC

My general passion for science means that I will not hold back on trying to help students understand the concepts. I believe if you want pass a subject, you need to practice answering exam questions, and if you want to get an A, you will need a deep understanding of the concepts.

  • University Tutoring

Programming

First Year

While my speciality is in Physics, I do enjoy programming so much I do it in my free time. Having Computational and applied mathematics as one of my majors also means that I have at least 3 years in programming.

Python

First Year

While my speciality is in Physics, I enjoy programming so much I do it in my free time. Having Computational and applied mathematics as one of my majors also means that I have at least 3 years in programming.

C++

First Year

While my speciality is in Physics, I do enjoy programming so much I do it in my free time. Having Computational and applied mathematics as one of my majors also means that I have at least 3 years in programming.

Calculus

First Year

I cannot think of a field of math in which I have better experience, most of the courses I have taken throughout my degree were calculus in some form or another, so I have probably come across a lot of the tricks to approaching problems at some point.

Physics

First Year - Third Year Quantum Mechanics PHYS3000A, PHYS3001A, PHYS3002A, PHYS3006A

I personally find that the trick to doing good in advanced courses such as these is having passion for them and as I had passion for this one, I studied it thoroughly enough to be in a place to help students understand it.
