Bio
I'm an approachable and patient person. I'm community orientated, I dedicate most of my free time volunteering either to schools where I get to tutor, do beach clean-ups (offered by societies at UCT)
I'm Patient, I believe you cannot help people if you are not patient, we are all different and acknowledging that we are all different is very important. That's why I always adopt different learning styles that will help my students understand lessons easier and that requires patience. I have struggled before so I know when to push and when to listen and provide remedies.
