Bio
I am a knowledge seeker and an enthusiastic learner. I jump at any chance that might lead to gaining further insight, be it practical and real-world, or academic.
I have helped many of my peers in the past, in both university and high school. I have also tutored for UCT in my 2nd year. I love making and sharing my notes, and discussing or explaining any subject that I have interest in. I have edited and proofread many of my friend's theses and essays as well.

Subjects
Mathematics
Grade 1 - Grade 12 IEBI grew to love Mathematics as time went on, and consistently achieved high marks throughout my schooling career. I feel as if I can help translate Maths into a language anyone can understand, so that one can grasp concepts with relative ease.
Drama
Grade 1 - Grade 12 IEBI am extremely passionate about Drama. While I do love stage-acting, my real love lies within theory. I spent much of my high school career helping out my fellow classmates by making them notes or helping the grasp ideas.
English
Grade 1 - Grade 12 IEBMy major strengths lie in grammar concepts and in essay construction. I am an avid reader, as well as a lover of poetry and films, and I will be happy to help identify the major themes and motifs of set readers and film analysis.
Latin
Grade 1 - Grade 12 University of Cape TownI studied Latin for a while at university and fell in love with the language. It is a logical language with absolutely stringent rules, but it is still a language of beauty. I have made extensive notes on grammar, and can also help with translation.
Information Technology
Grade 1 - Grade 12 IEBI found coding surprisingly fun in high school, and I thoroughly enjoy the logical nature and problem-solving aspect of it. I have also gone on to complete 1st and 2nd year Computer Science at university. Languages: Java & Python.

Reviews from others
“Michaela was easily able to unpick things for Sienna so that she understood them conceptually - and she also immediately connected with the fact that Sienna often overthinks maths so giving her step-by-step confidence really helped her!”- Danielle
“Michaela is very good with Jamie and his need to learn!”- Tamra
