Bio

I am a Chemical Engineering graduate from Stellenbosch University. I have a passion for new technologies and newly developing industries. My am Afrikaans and I studied in English.

I have a much younger brother who I have always helped with school work, which has also taught me how to be a good role model. I was a leader in my Engineering studies and work very well with people. I am very driven and love to share this in order to motivate and help others to improve and move forward. I have patience and can explain things to any learner at their own pace.

Subjects

  • School Tutoring

Physical Science

Grade 1 - Grade 12

I love Physics and Chemistry, which I completed as separate subjects in a private school in England. Science is one of my passions and Chemistry has always been my strongest subject, which led to me studying Chemical Engineering.

Mathematics

Grade 1 - Grade 12

Mathematics has always been my favourite subject, and also one of my strongest (second only to chemistry). I nearly achieved an A+ result for Mathematics in my final year of school. It also led to me studying Chemical Engineering at Stellenbosch.

Life Sciences (Biology)

Grade 1 - Grade 12

Biology was my second favourite subject after Mathematics. I achieved 77% for Biology in my A-levels in England, nearly an "A" result. I have a passion for understanding the human body, which would not be possible without learning basic Biology.

  • University Tutoring

Applied Mathematics

First Year - Second Year

I have a good understanding of Statics in Applied Mathematics and have been working with dynamics for an extended period of time. I can also provide plenty of experience with exam conditions and preparation techniques.

Chemistry

First Year

I am a final year Chemical Engineering student with a lot of experience in Chemistry. It is one of my strongest subjects and I am able to explain the concepts in great detail and depth.

Organic Chemistry

First Year - Second Year

Organic Chemistry is one of my favorite subjects and can be extremely interesting if approached in the correct way. I understand the underlying concepts well and can provide a lot of insight to the more difficult aspects of the subject.

Thermodynamics

First Year - Third Year

I have been exposed to thermodynamics for a long time now, as a subject as well as in practice. I believe I can lend useful guidance in approaching and passing one of the most difficult subjects of Chemical Engineering courses.
