Bio
I come from a family of educators, so learning and helping others to learn is in my blood. I'm on a break between jobs and would love to be useful! In my free time, I love to cook and play guitar :)
I am accommodating, and I try to understand the root of a student's mistake or confusion with a concept. I am currently a part-time geography tutor for first-year students at UCT. In the past, I've also tutored second-year human geography students, ran study workshops for high school STEM subjects from home, and been appointed student shadow-teacher in school for English, Science and Math.

Subjects
- School Tutoring
Life Sciences (Biology)
Grade 1 - Grade 12 NSCBiology has always been my favourite subject, so much so that I went on to study it at an undergrad and postgrad level. In grade 12, I ran study workshops out of my home for biology, chemistry, pure maths and physics. Then, at university I was a tutor and lab demonstrator to bio students.
Geography
Grade 1 - Grade 12 NSCThe foundation of my postgrad thesis is in geographical concepts. The study of landscapes and the systems it holds has always fascinated me. Getting to impress this expanded worldview upon burgeoning science and/or geography students is something I thoroughly enjoy.
