Bio
I'm passionate about learning and education. As much as I enjoy learning I also want to pass my knowledge on and create a passion for learning in others too!
I'm extremely patient. If a learner doesn't understand I'll try to think of another way to explain. I also listen to what learners are asking or saying to make sure I'm answering what they're asking. I don't just ask if they understand, I ask them to explain the concept to me to make sure they are really getting it.
Education

• I have an Honours degree in Physical Geography
• I've been helping people since school with English, Afrikaans and Geography
