Bio

I am a UCT graduate, having obtained my degree in Finance and Accounting, and I currently work within the financial services industry. In light of this, one of my biggest passions is teaching.

I have previous tutoring experience. I volunteered for SHAWCO at UCT where I tutored fourth grade learners in English and Life Orientation. I also tutored for the School of Economics at UCT, focusing on Economics. I am always willing to listen to and understand where the gaps are in a learner's knowledge in order to best fill that gap.
