Bio

I am a classical musician. I am passionate about teaching, and I love languages. I work hard to achieve my goals, and I enjoy helping and inspiring others to reach theirs.

I truly care about whether the student is learning, understanding and enjoying the work at hand. I also believe it is important to equip the student with tools to make studying by themselves an easier and more pleasant task.

Education

• B.A Media Studies - University of the Free State(2006-2008)
• Post Graduate Certificate in Education - University of Pretoria(2010)
• Post Grad Diploma in Double Bass - University of Cape Town(Current)

My Proudest
Achievements

• My proudest achievement so far is to be a member of the Cape Town Philharmonic Orchestra as tutti double bass player. The orchestra is one of only 3 permanent orchestras in South Africa.
• Another proud achievement was to go to France the year after Matric, to work as a Jeune Fille Au Pair.
