I am a Wits undergraduate student and the current director of vaal brightest minds. Very proficient in high level mathematics ( calculus, trigonometry and algebra) , physical sciences and life sciences . Im passionate about tutoring and I love working with other students.

My previous endavours helping out with mathematics had been to put strong emphasis on basic key mathematical concepts and fundamentals.Stressing out the significance of notation,structure and proof layout to enable the student a fair chance of utilizing prior knowledge on working independently.

I strongly encourage students to pre and post read. Firstly, we focus on gaining understanding of fundamental concepts. Once the student has sound understanding, we then try to dedicate time to memorizing, whilst subsequently emphasising that memorization should never replace understanding.

It is imperative of me to give students opportunities to think and engage with this subject, by associating relevant course work with relevant real life applications. I also work to determine learners' prior knowledge to formatively access what the student knows and build on that.

I like to promote student interaction to help the learner construct their own learning, while expressing themselves in the language. I provide them with interactive opportunities such as open discussions and reading aloud. I encourage past exam preparations alongside creative literature.
