Bio

I completed my BSc Honours in Biological Sciences at the University of Cape Town in 2019 and was awarded a 1st (distinction). I am patient, punctual, approachable and passionate about education.

I am compassionate and pride myself in my ability to listen to others. I have a gentle yet self-assured demeanour, thus most tutees I work with feel comfortable in my presence. I always ensure that the student does not fear embarrassment. I make exercises fun and always try to play to the strengths of the student I am working with.
