Subjects
- School Tutoring
English
Children need to enjoy what they are learning. Unfortunately English at school level can become very boring and my passion is to motivate children to read books and enjoy English. I have experience with helping Afrikaans speaking children to read.
Mathematics
I have tutored many children who had learning disorders. Maths is an awesome way to build their confidence and see them achieve where they always struggled.
Afrikaans
My husband is Afrikaans and we are a very bilingual family.
History
Understanding the past broadens your outlook on life and relating the information to a child in an exciting way can stimulate them to start asking questions and developing a holistic approach to society.
Geography
Everyone needs to understand a weather forecast! Geography isn't just a subject - it's all around us. We live in exciting times and understanding low pressure systems, volcanoes, tsunami's and ecology for example can really open up a child's world.
Physical Science
Chemistry and Physics are so interesting once it's been broken down into easy, understandable sections. The best way to learn these subjects is to do them, and that includes experiments and lots of fun!
