I have experience tutoring ecology, botany, zoology, and environmental conservation. I am comfortable tutoring from Grade 8 to university level in these fields.

Research

First Year - Postgrad

I am well versed in both quantitative and qualitative research, having used both in my master's study. I will be able to translate the theory of each into real-world scenarios which make sense and assist you in achieving your research goals.

Biology

First Year

Biology has always held a special interest for me. The understanding of how interconnected every part of the body is can be confusing, but with my help, I have no doubt you will find this subject thoroughly fascinating and well within your mastery.

Geography was my favourite subject in high school, and consequently, my highest-achieving high school subject. I am excellent at explaining the concepts within the subject and know I will be able to greatly assist you in achieving your goals in this subject.

First Year - Third Year

Animals have always been a focal point of my life. From animal behaviour/ethnology to physiology and anatomy, I find all forms of zoology fascinating and believe I am well equipped to assist you in finding your passion in this subject.

I am an excellent botany tutor thanks to my experience and passion for this field. My PhD will most likely focus on a botanical aspect, and I thoroughly enjoy engaging with any botanical subject matter.

School Tutoring

Geography

Geography was my favourite subject in school and I thoroughly enjoy tutoring students in this subject. My experience and further knowledge from university studies aids students greatly in this subject.

English

Grade 1 - Grade 12 IEB

English is the most widely spoken language around the world, and having a good grasp of it's strictures and concepts is essential in any form of academia (high school or university). I am well equipped to expand your understanding of English, both written and spoken.

Life Sciences (Biology)

Grade 1 - Grade 10 IEB

I enjoyed biology immensely at school and believe my further experience in natural sciences is a great asset to tutoring this subject.

Study skills

Grade 1 - Grade 12

Study methods are, to me, arguably one of the most important skills a student can learn. My years of tutoring and assisting with lectures have given me a broad insight into how to help a student find the study methods which works the best for them.

Tourism

Grade 1 - Grade 12

Tourism is one of this country's top-earning sectors next to manufacturing and industry. I have an in-depth understanding of the way the industry works and will be able to assist you in understanding how marketing (in general and industry specifically) works and functions.
