Bio
I am a kind, compassionate and organised person with a love for academics, a good sense of humor, and helping others. Showing unconditional kindness to others is of utmost importance to me.
I have an honours degree in psychology and as such have a deep understanding of how important it is to increase a student's confidence levels. I am very patient and absolutely love being able to help others progress and achieve in areas they struggle with. I have a lot of experience working with children and adolescents, making me a confident, energetic and passionate tutor.

Subjects
Mathematics Literacy
Grade 1 - Grade 12 IEBHaving only taken Mathematics literacy from mid-year Grade 11, I know the value of a tutor for this subject (which helped with catch-up purposes in my case). Furthermore, I have a natural ability when it comes to this subject and I enjoy it thoroughly. It is my favourite subject to tutor!
Art History
Grade 1 - Grade 12 IEBArt History was my fondest subject during my high school years. Years later, I still value the knowledge I acquired during my time and would love the opportunity to aid a learner with a clearer understanding of this highly interesting subject.
History
Grade 1 - Grade 12 IEBHistory is a fascinating and hugely important topic in my opinion. Holding the personal belief that history should be a mandatory subject throughout high school, tutoring this subject that I am so passionate about (and thrived in) is exciting.
English
Grade 1 - Grade 12 IEBHaving done AP English in high school, 1st-year university English, and an advanced TEFL course. I have a deep understanding of the subject and what students are required to understand and demonstrate in order to achieve high marks.
Life Sciences (Biology)
Grade 1 - Grade 12 IEBUnderstanding Biology has always come easily to me and I created various studying techniques catered specifically for it throughout high school. My energetic passion for the subject has enabled me to help others understand it similarly, and study for it effectively.
Psychology

Criminology
First Year - Third Year KRM: 110, 120, 210 and 220I initially took criminology simply for the credits. However, I enjoyed the course so much and did so well that I majored in it, and recieved my degree in 2018. I have always received distinctions for it, and truly have a love for it now.
English
First YearMy mother tongue is English, therefore I understand the complexities of the language and can help a student to the best of my ability to excel in it. I also have a level 5 TEFL, making me more than qualified and so eager to teach!
TEFL
Beginner - AdvancedI am a lover of all things English. Not only did I receive a distinction for matric english, AP english, and my first year of English in university; but I am also planning on teaching English as a foreign language in South Korea in the next 12 months!
