I completed Cambridge A level chemistry in High School and carried on with this into varsity. Completed the first two years of Chemistry major as part of my Chemical Engineering degree, earning marks above 85%.

Strong affinity for numbers led to my University acceptance for both Actuarial Science and Chemical Engineering at UCT. My detail-orientated nature has often led to me getting caught up in the finer details. However, a major result of this is taking pride in explaining concepts slowly and clearly.

A passion for science has enabled me to make effective use of audio-visual learning techniques to explain challenging concepts to tutees. On average, this has helped increase the marks of physical science students I've tutored by 25%. A good measure of a students' understanding is teaching others.

My passion for chemistry has enabled me to make effective use of diagrams and visual representations to explain challenging concepts to tutees previously. On average, this has helped increase the marks of students I've tutored by 20%. A true measure of comprehension is explaining clearly to others.

I currently tutor core chemical engineering modules, from first through to final year. Having graduated from UCT in this field in 2020, I'm well aware of the current demands of a Chemical Engineering undergraduate degree. This has helped yield tremendous success in tutoring undergraduates.
