Bio

I am not only an Epistemophile (one who has a love for knowledge) but also a Philanthropist (the desire to promote the welfare of others). I believe hard work and determination achieve success.

It is my belief that I am able to truly help the welfare of others by guiding them through their studies and sharing my knowledge. I have a background in Psychology which helps me to connect with individuals who might otherwise struggle with social interactions and spending time with a tutor.

Arts & Culture

In high school, I was the top student in my year for Art History and practicals (89%). My Matric artwork was shown at an exhibition in the Tatham Art Gallery in Pietermaritzburg. My experience makes me uniquely equipped to tutor art students.

I received top marks in my high school for Life Orientation and matriculated with 86% in the subject. I have developed the subject further as a top-achieving student in Psychology at university level.

Mathematics

Grade 1 - Grade 10 IEB

I received high marks in Math throughout high school, but it was a subject I had to work very hard to achieve. This required me to discover different ways of studying and learning for the best results. These are skills I will be able to use to assist any student of mine.

Afrikaans

Grade 1 - Grade 12 IEB

Foundational Afrikaans - I am a second language Afrikaans speaker. I had to study Taal, Poesie, and general understanding in order to improve marks. This makes me particularly well equipped to teach struggling young English speakers to learn the fundamental building blocks of Afrikaans.
