I love all aspects of English, from language, literature and comprehensions, to writing and giving speeches. I'm especially skilled at helping students identify what examiners are looking for and teaching essay writing and answering techniques.

I have a passion for History and got 98% for my Matric ORT project. I'm skilled at teaching how to critically assess sources, answering techniques and essay writing. I'm currently growing these skills by studying Politics and Philosophy at UCT.

I have a strong mathematical brain and am doing economics and maths at university. I enjoy making maths simple and easy to understand and I will help students build a strong base and give them easy tips to apply when approaching different questions.

I leant how to make biology simple by applying systems to each section. Although the content is dense, I'm skilled at summarising and selecting the main points. I am especially good at explaining processes and helping make clear study notes.

As Afrikaans is not my first language, I found a way to make it easy and understandable. Mastering the language section is the key to doing well in Afrikaans and to do this, I put together simple, teachable steps to follow for each type of question.

Physics can be a challenging subject and it's important to ensure you understand each section. To do this I learnt to make sense of topics by not over-complicating them and creating simple rules to apply to different questions.
