Bio

I am a driven person who is very passionate about problem solving. I also love to help other people achieve their goals and am willing to help however I can.

In my grade 10 I become complacent and allowed my marks to drop from 80% to below 70%. I worked extremely hard the following years and managed to achieve 7 distinctions and an 88.3% average in grade 12. I believe I can help others to do the same. I am also a great leader. My main sport in highschool was rowing where I was a coxswain. Leading 8 other men taught me how to be a great leader.

Subjects

  • School Tutoring

Mathematics

Grade 1 - Grade 12 IEB

Mathematics was my favourite subject at school. I always enjoyed learning new ways to solve problems. I think everyone can do well in mathematics, they just need the right assistance which I believe I can provide.

Physical Science

Grade 1 - Grade 12 IEB

Physical science was a very difficult subject, especially in my final year. It requires a lot of work and commitment. Great marks are most definitely possible. I came to have a great understanding of the subject in my final year. It just required the right guidance.

Geography

Grade 1 - Grade 12 IEB

Geography is thought to be an easy subject but it is not always. The large workload and specific requirements can be overwhelming. I believe my understanding of the subject can greatly assist someone in need.

Life Sciences (Biology)

Grade 1 - Grade 12 IEB

I am a matriculant of the class of 2021. I found Life Sciences to be a very enjoyable subject. The subject can get very confusing at times but with some assistance, it becomes much easier. I found many ways to improve my marks which helped me achieve an 80.

Afrikaans

Grade 1 - Grade 12 IEB

As an only English speaker, I found Afrikaans FAL to be difficult at times but I found many ways to make the subject easier which guaranteed my 80 by the time I got to matric. I believe with enough help anyone can achieve their goals for Afrikaans.
