“ a whole intimidating section in maths turned out to be not so hard just because of how sir explains stuff which makes me more confident in my work”

“After a rocky start with our first tutor, we were skeptical and a bit bruised when we chose Sikelela. He has taken my child from mid-50s to low-60s to 77% in the final IEB NSC exams of 2024! Missed that "A" by a whisker! Siyabulela Sikelela, for your patience and commitment. We are beyond thrilled. ”
