Bio

I am an Honours student at UCT set on becoming an academic. I am also a communicator; I have been presenting to academics touring South Africa from the US, UK and Japan since 2018.

My Grade 8 desk mate was a repeater, and we worked together to correct that he is now finishing his MBChB. He is a brilliant one; he worked hard. My desk mate and many others I have worked with prove that we are capable of reaching our goals; we need to put in the work. My abilities lie in convincing you to up your efforts. I have been presenting to audiences since I was 12.

Subjects

  • School Tutoring

Mathematics

Grade 1 - Grade 12 NSC, CAPS

In the afterschool programme I attended, Promaths, I was once sent to take over a class by my Mathematics teacher on a weekend when there was a shortage of teachers. He had seen my comprehension of the subject and my style of explaining the material. I enjoy this

Physical Science

Grade 1 - Grade 12 NSC, CAPS

In the Promaths afterschool program, focusing on Mathematics and Physical Sciences, my Mathematics teacher, impressed by my effective teaching style, once entrusted me to take over a class due to a shortage of teachers on a weekend.

Zulu

Grade 1 - Grade 12 NSC, CAPS, IEB

I am a proud IsiZulu speaker and believe that languages are related to our identities, so we can never be careless about them. In tutoring, being the top achiever at school generally means tutoring others; I have years of practice.

Life Sciences (Biology)

Grade 1 - Grade 12 NSC, CAPS

I was in the running to be the DUX at school; because of that other students looked to me to talk to them about different subjects. This was throughout my high school and I enjoyed it as well. Each group tries to beat previous groups so I wanted my mates to know their stuff well. I was the DUX btw

  • Language Tutoring

Zulu

Beginner - Advanced

I grew up in rural areas and was monolingual, only speaking IsiZulu until I was 10 when I moved to the township. I am still proud of my grasp of the language and believe that languages are tied to our identities, windows to other worlds we can reach without language.

Reviews from others
