Bio

I am a highly motivated and passionate law student. In my free time I enjoy playing with my nephew, going on long walks and reading all types of books.

I am a very patient person. I am a good listener, especially when someone is struggling to understand certain concepts, and adapt my teaching style accordingly. I have a variety of study methods to teach to students if they are struggling with retaining information. I am a motivating person and always encourage people to do their best and to improve their confidence in their own abilities.

Education

• I finished my matric at Durbanville High School, with four distinctions.
• I am currently in my second year of University, studying LLB.

My Proudest
Achievements

• I achieved four distinctions in matric.
• I was accepted for LLB, BSc Psychology and Biology, and B Social Work at Stellenbosch University, which was the only University I applied at.
• I passed my first year of my studies with six distinctions in total.

Subjects

  • School Tutoring

Life Sciences (Biology)

Grade 1 - Grade 10 NSC, CAPS, IEB

I am deeply passionate about biology, and I am eager to share this enthusiasm with other students. My love for the subject is particularly strong in the area of anatomy, where I have developed a solid and comprehensive understanding.

Afrikaans

Grade 1 - Grade 12 NSC (Home Language), IEB

My home language is Afrikaans and I enjoy staying close to my heritage. I enjoy literature and have experience with the language section. I have also taught many English learners to transition from fully English in primary school to having Afrikaans as well.

Geography

Grade 1 - Grade 12 NSC, CAPS, IEB

I obtained a distinction in Geography in matric and achieved 90% + for all my assignments. I know how to research and reference and how to teach the long question material to others, as this was my study method.

English

Grade 1 - Grade 12 NSC, CAPS (First Additional Language)

I am a big reader and love analysing poetry and anything else relating to literature. I love making PowerPoints for oral assignments and anything creative.

Social Science

Grade 1 - Grade 9 NSC, CAPS

I have a strong passion for history and geography. My enthusiasm for exploring historical events and understanding geographical concepts fueled my success, and I consistently achieved top grades in these areas.

Natural Science

Grade 1 - Grade 9 NSC

I have a passion for natural sciences and biology. I received distinctions in school when I had this subject and natural science was always my favourite subject to study and help others understand.

Life Orientation

Grade 1 - Grade 12 NSC, CAPS

Life Orientation is one of those subjects in which no one pays attention. Although it is very repetitive, it is very easy to get great marks, if you make it fun for yourself, or someone else makes it fun for you, and that is what I do.

  • Language Tutoring

Afrikaans

Beginner - Advanced

Afrikaans is my Home Language. In a world where English has become the Universal language, I feel it is important to stay connected to your roots, or create new roots by learning a new language.

English

Beginner - Advanced

Although English is my second language, I feel it is important to be as fluent in it as possible, as the world is developing in such a way that everything is in English, both in the social sphere and the professional sphere.
