Bio
I am a productive and encouraging individual who believes in the liberating power of education. I believe in tailoring teaching style to suit the individual, as learning styles are unique.
My BA course (theatre and performance) was dependent on group work and being a reliant and helpful participant. I would often look over other students' essays and give constructive criticism because my fellows knew I achieved high marks in my essay work. I am patient and enjoy finding creative ways of educating others.

Subjects
- School Tutoring
Drama
Grade 1 - Grade 12 IEBDrama was my favourite subject when I was at school. I was so invested that I continued my study of Drama in university. I graduated with a first for my BA in Theatre & Performance from UCT.
English
Grade 1 - Grade 12 IEBI have always enjoyed crafting critical essays and creative writing projects. I completed my Masters in Dramaturgy and Writing for Performance at Goldsmiths University of London, due to my interest in scripting plays.
Life Sciences (Biology)
Grade 1 - Grade 12 IEBAlthough Drama and English were my main passions in high school, I knew the importance of being a well-rounded student. Life sciences opened many potential paths for me, and I would like to help other students to achieve the same.
History
Grade 1 - Grade 12 IEBI loved learning about obscure figures and identifying the patterns in human behaviour stretching back centuries. I would like to help the people I tutor realise the incredible wealth of knowledge inherent in studying history.
