Bio

Hi! My name is Gv. I became a tutor because I love helping children achieve their maximum potential academically. I have been coaching and tutoring for the last 6 years and I love what I do.

I have been working with children since I finished school. First, I joined a tutoring company as a form of extra income but I soon realised that I was enjoying it much more than any other ordinary student job. I also started coaching 4 years ago and I love every second of sharing knowledge and getting children as inspired as I am about performing well academically.

Education

• 2011-2012 University of Witwatersrand
• 2013-2016 University of Pretoria

My Proudest
Achievements

• I have helped a young man from an average of 38% in the beginning of the year to an average of 80% at the end. Some of the kids I have coached in the past are now playing IPT's or for their first teams at their universities. I went to China last year to teach English.

Subjects

  • School Tutoring

Mathematics

Grade 1 - Grade 12

Although Mathematics is a subject many students get frustrated with, it is more applicable to everyday life than they might think. Understanding and excelling at Mathematics is as easy as finding the right key to your lock.

Mathematics Literacy

Grade 1 - Grade 12

Although Mathematics is a subject many students get frustrated with, it is more applicable to everyday life than they might think. Understanding and excelling at Mathematics is as easy as finding the right key to your lock.

Life Sciences (Biology)

Grade 1 - Grade 12

Biology has always been a passion of mine, since high school and through all my years of studying it was always a subject that I loved. Understanding how nature works and seeing the balance of it all makes you appreciate it more.

Physical Science

Grade 1 - Grade 12

Physical Sciences is one of the most exciting subjects I've ever had the pleasure to study. Understanding the inner workings of physics and chemistry makes you feel like a genius, and I love helping students feel like geniuses.

English

Grade 1 - Grade 12

English is the international language for business and I truly believe it is the language of the future. I would like to help students understand the usefulness of English as a language and the importance of it in the world around us.

Afrikaans

Grade 1 - Grade 12

Although Afrikaans to me is one of the most beautiful languages, it is being used less and less. I would like to reignite the passion in learners for Afrikaans to ensure that it won't be forgotten in the generations to come.

  • Sports Coaching

Hockey

Beginner - Advanced

I've been a hockey coach for 4 years now, coaching both indoor and outdoor field hockey. Currently, I am coaching the men's second team at Nova hockey club. I believe hockey is the ultimate mixture of fitness and skills in any sport.

San-marie Rafferty

“Appreciate the communication and connection with Aidan. ”

Anisa

“We are very happy with GV's way of tutoring. However I feel that GV can be a bit more strict towards Krisha. Sometimes she get too accustom to GV, and does not take him seriously. ”
