Bio
I am a very passionate and bubbly individual and my aim is to help others, by motivating them to reach their full potential. I am approachable and dedicated and I want to make learning enjoyable.
Being a medical student, this quality is inherent in my nature. I truly believe that we rise by lifting others and that is my ultimate goal. I listen to the needs of those around me and I believe that I have the ability to provide the necessary support and guidance, having learned from experience. My aim is to help others understand in ways that are suited to their needs, which I can assist with.

Subjects
- School Tutoring
Mathematics
I have experience tutoring my brother, who just completed Matric in 2020, with a very high distinction in Mathematics. This is a subject that comes naturally to me so I can assist very well when it comes to understanding and application of mathematical concepts.
Life Sciences (Biology)
I have tutored Molecular Biology to first years in my previous Campus Residence and I assisted my brother last year when he completed Matric, helping him get a distinction with the subject where he had been struggling. As someone who struggled, I really mastered the technique for this subject.
English
I recently recapped the entire English Syllabus with both of my brothers and I tutored them and helped them achieve distinctions. I have a passion for the subject and great insight as I enjoy dissecting texts and writing creatively as well.
Zulu
I used to assist my fellow classmates at school and I have tutored my Mum in the language as she had to learn the language to teach her students at school.
Physical Science
I have been assisting my brother with both chemistry and physics as I had learned important techniques during my matric year.
Drama
This was my favourite subject as it allowed me to be creative and think critically. I have great insight into this subject.
Life Orientation
Life Orientation can sometimes be tricky with the IEB syllabus. However, as someone who is very broad-minded and in tune with the world, I can really provide great insight and help perfect certain techniques needed.
