Bio
PhD candidate and researcher venturing into being a lecturer in future. Personally, I'm a friendly, yet firm individual who believes in putting effort into achieving goals but also has fun doing it.
My experience being a tutor at UKZN (2020 - 2022), and my high school tutoring (2012-2014) has helped hone my skills of relaying information and abilities to make students open to asking questions. My tutoring style is not dependent on just "lecturing" the content to my students, but it's about active participation and engagement; providing better retention and students achieving greater GPAs.
