I am a compassionate, hard-working, and trustworthy individual. I love working with different personalities and have a passion for simplifying complex topics into something that is comprehensible.
I have a lot of patience, and I believe that each individual learns at their own pace and in their own way. I will make sure that we adapt the classes to the needs of each student to ensure effective learning and the effective use of time and money. I am empathetic and kind and would like to make a difference in people's lives, no matter how small.

Mathematics
Mathematics has always been one of my favourite subjects, but it all depended on the teacher and method of teaching. I believe that each individual learns differently, and it is my goal to adapt my teaching to your child's needs. Maths can indeed be fun!
Life Sciences (Biology)
I absolutely love Life Sciences. It was one of the most interesting subjects in school and it essentially made me decide to pursue a career in Genetics. I would love to teach this subject and try to instil an interest/passion in the student.
Physical Science
I know how challenging Physical Science can be, and without extra help, I would not have been able to do as well as I did. I would love to assist a student struggling with this subject, and also help them to gain confidence. With confidence, you can master anything, including Physical Science!
Afrikaans
Afrikaans is my home language, and I am very passionate about it. I believe it is a beautiful and simple language, once you get the hang of it, and I would love to be the person who demonstrates this.
English
I love the English language and completed two scientific degrees in English with ease (even though it isn’t my home language). I am excellent at grammar, spelling, and writing, and would be able to assist in any of these categories.
German
My father grew up in Germany and taught me quite a bit about the language. I am very good with pronunciation, writing, and Grammatik (grammar).
Natural Science
I have two degrees in Science and therefore my background is strong. I can explain complex topics and create methods to retain large amounts of information.
Afrikaans
Afrikaans is my home language and I take great pride in speaking and writing the language correctly (and perfectly). I would love to help someone understand it better and it would be an honour teaching my favourite language in the world!
German
My father grew up in Germany and taught me quite a bit about the language. I am very good with pronunciation, writing, and Grammatik (grammar).
Genetics
I have a BSc Honours degree in Genetics and therefore I am very knowledgeable in this subject area. I will assist in problem-solving of all kinds and understanding different complex Genetic processes in both humans and plants.
Psychology
Psychology is an extremely interesting subject. I performed very well in this subject and would love to help a student achieve the same. There is a certain method of studying that will certainly help and I can assist in showing the student how to do this.
Physiology
I have a degree in Physiology and found the subject to be fascinating. It entails quite a lot of studying, but with the right methods, it can be done effectively. I am able to explain different topics such as cancer, haematology, the CNS, the endocrine system, immune function, and many more.
