Bio

A science loving Honours student at UCT who has been tutoring for the past 3 years. I love natures and the outdoors, and all sorts of adventures!

I do my best to try and simplify concepts as much as I can, and I know that different people understand differently, so I do use visuals and colours to make the content stand out.

Subjects

  • School Tutoring

Life Sciences (Biology)

Grade 1 - Grade 11

My love for biology means that I have always enjoyed explaining concepts that might be difficult. This year, I am tutoring for HUB at UCT & all the engagement was online. At the end of the semester, students said they loved how I made concepts so easy to understand!

Chemistry

Grade 1 - Grade 12

Chemistry is usually super fun when it comes to experimenting in the lab, but what I found really helped me understand concepts is looking at things practically. By doing that, I can also help you to feel more confident in your knowledge of the material.

Geography

Grade 1 - Grade 12

Geography is all around us, especially in a beautiful country like ours! If you choose to learn with me, you'll see how things in your syllabus actually relate to structures you see daily, things that have probably sparked your curiosity before.

Chemistry

First Year

From the sparks you see during a bonfire to the change in state when you're frying an egg, chemistry happens all around you, and it's super exciting! If you feel like you need some inspiration when it comes to this subject, you're in the right place.

Statistics

First Year

When it comes to maths, practice really does make perfect. But with statistics you have an advantage, because everything you work out has logic to it, and makes it much easier to understand and use! And that's exactly what I'm here to help you with.

Microbiology

First Year - Second Year

Microbiology is a whole world in itself, and whether you love it or not, it can get difficult to remember everything. I achieved A's throughout my undergraduate degree in Microbiology because I figured out how to enjoy it. Let me help you do the same!

Biochemistry

First Year - Second Year

Unlike other biology subjects, biochemistry usually has quite a bit of calculations. Whether that's what you're struggling with, or you just don't get the concepts, I can help you understand the concepts in a simple way.

Reviews from others

“Saleha works very versatile with the materials ( including NCEA papers). She is very patient;she would go over certain questions and theory that I didn’t understand until I get it. Her explanations are good and she makes theory easy to comprehend, and slows down if I’m having trouble. She would confirm with me afterwards whether I understood the questions or not, which is helpful for easily-distracted students like me. Overall a great tutor.”
