Bio

I am an enthusiastic and driven person who loves to help others through tutoring. I spend my free time baking, reading, learning new languages.

I know what it feels like to be discouraged when the marks are not a reflection of the student's efforts so I am determined to help students boost their confidence and their marks by breaking down a new concept into smaller pieces - which makes it easier for the student to process and understand and it ensures that the student is not parrot learning.

Education

• Currently, a master’s student at the University of the Witwatersrand studying towards an MSc in Applied Bioinformatics.

My Proudest
Achievements

• Being accepted into all the universities I applied for.
• Achieving 3 A's out of 4 courses in my second year of university.
• Pursuing my master’s degree in 2024.

Subjects

  • School Tutoring

Mathematics

Grade 1 - Grade 10 IEB

I enjoyed maths in high school and I am able to explain the concepts in a simpler manner for easy understanding. I also took a maths course in my first year of university which composed of calculus and algebra. In second year, I obtained a distinction for my statistics course.

Life Sciences (Biology)

Grade 1 - Grade 12 IEB

I have always found biology to be the most fascinating subject and I am currently studying a BSc Biological Sciences so this subject has definitely stuck with me! Additionally, I have obtained A's for most of my university biology courses so I believe I will be able to help you improve your marks!

English

Grade 1 - Grade 12 IEB

English can be quite tricky but once you know what to look out for, it’ll be a smooth ride! I also took Advanced Programme English in high school which have enhanced my essay writing skills.

Life Orientation

Grade 1 - Grade 11 IEB

Life Orientation may seem like an easy subject to get an A in which catches many students off guard as they won’t be bothered to study. I will run through the material with the student to ensure they understand the content to help them achieve a distinction.

Biology

First Year - Third Year BIOL1000A | BIOL1006A | MCBG2032A | MCBG2036A | MCBG2037A

Biology is a passion of mine and I am able to explain the concepts in simpler terms for easy understanding. I have obtained distinctions for most of the courses and I believe I will be able to help you understand the work better and thus improve your marks.
