Bio
Every student has unique strengths. My job is to help them uncover these and help them achieve the best marks they can while reinvigorating their curiosity and love for learning.
I believe my resourcefulness and problem-solving abilities make me an excellent tutor. As a psychology tutor, two students approached me and thanked me for my contributions, saying their A+ would have been impossible without my help. I have taught in a variety of situations, from private tutoring, and piano teaching, to being a craft teacher. All this adds to my ability to be an excellent tutor.

Achievements

I tutored first-year psychology students for a year and underwent training on how to do this.
- Music Tutoring
Piano (Classical)
Beginner (Grades 1 - 3) - Intermediate (Grades 4 - 6)I have 10+ years of experience learning and playing music. I've helped four students thus far grasp the beginnings of piano and music theory, and have been a part of multiple music collectives. I get along well with young children as I am quite young myself, and bring joy and fun into my lessons.
- School Tutoring
Afrikaans
Grade 1 - Grade 12 CambridgeI believe language is best learned through reading and practice, so my approach to helping a student excel at their work is to work through practical examples and to encourage them to read as much as possible. As a fluent Afrikaans speaker, I can also ensure proper pronunciation.
