Bio

I am a creative, well-spoken and educated woman with a sunny disposition. I have a laid-back personality and I am often described as being nurturing and kind.

I have taken leadership roles in the past that involved mentoring those younger than me. I take great pleasure in seeing others succeed and having a role to play in that success. My experience as a research supervisor has taught me patience and furthered my interest in education and mentorship.

Subjects

  • School Tutoring

English

Grade 1 - Grade 12 IEB

I am currently completing a Masters Degree in Creative Writing with Wits University. I graduated cum laude in my Honours Degree and I am currently a research supervisor. I am confident in my ability to help elevate a student's quality of writing and improve their reading and comprehension skills.

Life Sciences (Biology)

Grade 1 - Grade 12 IEB

I am passionate about helping students find ways to learn and recall information without rote learning. I believe I can help a student understand the material well enough that they don't have to memorise every detail.

History

Grade 1 - Grade 12 IEB

A huge component of History is being able to write an essay well. It doesn't matter how well a student understands the events, they have to be able to present a valid argument through text. My experience in academia affords me the ability to help people write polished and well-researched papers.
