Subjects
Afrikaans
Beginner - IntermediateI am able to tutor Afrikaans First Additional Language learners. I grew up in a predominantly Afrikaans-speaking area and sharpened my Afrikaans skills from a very young age. I am most able to help with Afrikaans grammar, sentence structure and conversational skills.
English
Beginner - IntermediateMy command of the English language is at the native level and I have conducted all my schooling up to university level in English. I make a great English tutor because I am passionate about teaching and I am more than willing to take the English learning journey in tandem with my students.
TEFL
Beginner - IntermediateI make a great tutor because I took on my TEFL journey on my own and that experience made me realise that it is most helpful to have support in taking on this course. I am looking forward to providing this support to any students who require it as well.
History
First Year - Third Year GES 110, 210, 220I did History up to my final year at the University of Pretoria. I have experience tutoring high school students during school holidays. I enjoy teaching about all historical topics, but I enjoy South African history the most.
Politics
First Year - Second YearPolitical Sciences is quite challenging but I believe it is a challenge that can be overcome with dedication and some extra tutoring. I would be more than happy to help students out with some extra resources and assistance with the module.
Reviews from others
“Zu made me feel so comfortable with this overwhelming subject. She explained everything and took the time to be patient, kind and extremely helpful. I would recommend her to peers as well as love to have her a tutor going forward. I wish she was able to tutor all subjects. She is amazing. ”- Gillian
