Every student has unique strengths. My job is to help them uncover these and help them achieve the best marks they can while reinvigorating their curiosity and love for learning.
I believe my resourcefulness and problem-solving abilities make me an excellent tutor. As a psychology tutor, two students approached me and thanked me for my contributions, saying their A+ would have been impossible without my help. I have taught in a variety of situations, from private tutoring, and piano teaching, to being a craft teacher. All this adds to my ability to be an excellent tutor.

• I achieved distinctions for both my undergraduate and honours degrees and could fund these through scholarships that recognise academic performance. I consider finishing my honours thesis and getting 80% a great achievement. I make a pretty good chocolate cake.
Afrikaans
I am fluent in both English and Afrikaans and achieved the highest grade in the country of examination for Afrikaans Grade 12.
Sociology
I achieved three academic merit bursaries for my performance at university and specialised in social sciences in my honours year. I help students think critically and can help them structure arguments and analyses for university essays.
Psychology
I was consistently the top-performing psychology student in a faculty of 1,500 students and was rewarded for gaining the highest grade in my class for PSYC111. I tutored first-year psychology students for a year and underwent training on how to do this.
Piano (Classical)
I have 10+ years of experience learning and playing music. I've helped four students thus far grasp the beginnings of piano and music theory, and have been a part of multiple music collectives. I get along well with young children as I am quite young myself, and bring joy and fun into my lessons.
Afrikaans
I believe language is best learned through reading and practice, so my approach to helping a student excel at their work is to work through practical examples and to encourage them to read as much as possible. As a fluent Afrikaans speaker, I can also ensure proper pronunciation.
