Bio
My name is Given, I am 29 years old. I am a Learning & Development Specialist with 2 years of tutoring experience. I am passionate about education & making a difference in the lives of the youth.
What has enabled me to succeed in tutoring is my ability to empathize, be patient, be kind, and most importantly, be reassuring to my learners. I struggled academically for 2 years in high school and as someone who has had academic challenges, I am clear on what is needed to help learners who need academic guidance and most importantly, assurance that they will not fail.

History
Grade 1 - Grade 12 NSCThe first thing that comes to mind in the subject of History is curiosity. The key to success in learning and succeeding in the subject of History is being curious about the past and connecting the dots to how that History has led to the present moment. Let's unpack this further in our session! :)
