Bio

I'm a bubbly, enthusiastic Medical student and life-long learner. I love working with young people and have a passion for education.

As a young person and a learner myself, I am good at communicating learning concepts to students. I really value goal setting, applying a set of solid principles and repetition for retention. My teaching strategies are adapted to the needs of each learner.

Education

• 2015-2020: MBChB (Medicine) at the University of Cape Town

My Proudest
Achievements

• My biggest high school achievement was graduating as one of the top 5 students in my class.

• My biggest achievement in university has been being on the Dean's Merit List for every year of my studies, and being in the top 10% of my class in Medicine.

Subjects

  • School Tutoring

English

Grade 1 - Grade 12

I'm passionate about language and writing — I currently attend weekly creative writing groups, and I worked as a website moderator for the Young Writers' Society. I was also a World Schools Debater and have valuable speech writing knowledge.

Afrikaans

Grade 1 - Grade 12

I am an Afrikaans home language speaker and I have extensive creative writing experience, especially for competitions during high school. I also participated in Afrikaans debating and can offer valuable speech writing knowledge.

Mathematics

Grade 1 - Grade 12

I needed to achieve a high level of mathematics in high school in order to apply for Medicine. This allowed me to build a trove of invaluable math study skills I can impart to students, as well as an excellent understanding of the syllabus.

Life Sciences (Biology)

Grade 1 - Grade 12

I study Medicine, so I have an advanced understanding of biology, which would make me a great tutor for a questioning student. My high school science expo project won National prizes, so I can give experienced advice to expo students.

Physical Science

Grade 1 - Grade 12

Being a Medical student, I had to take university courses in chemistry and physics, and I use both on a daily basis. This also gives me the knowledge of how to practically apply physical science to real-world problems and make the learning fun.
