Bio

An energetic, hardworking history lover with a talent for teaching. Patient, friendly, and good at breaking down tough concepts. Dedicated to helping out where I am able to yield the best results!

I understand being a student and not conceptualising hard concepts from strict teachers. I foster a calm and safe environment to stimulate learning by relating concepts in broken down terms all while remaining patient with my student. With one of my majors being in psychology, I know how to properly communicate with others especially in high pressure environments.

Subjects

  • School Tutoring

History

Grade 1 - Grade 12 IEB

As a history enthusiast, I hold a strong academic background. I make complex themes relatable through simplified explanations, focusing on developing the critical thinking and essay-writing skills needed and helping students improve their grades and gain a deeper appreciation for the subject.

Business Studies

Grade 1 - Grade 12 IEB

Business Studies excites me, and my distinction proves my deep understanding. As I pursue a degree in industrial sociology and labor relations, I simplify business concepts using real-life examples, making learning engaging and practical.
