Subjects

  • School Tutoring

Mathematics

Grade 1 - Grade 12

Mathematics is a subject that is often perceived as difficult, but with the right guidance, it can become a fascinating and rewarding challenge. As a tutor, I am passionate about helping students overcome their fears and excel in math. Let's work together!

Physical Science

Grade 1 - Grade 12

Physics is about the application of Algrebra to logical problems while taking into account a few laws/rules. Having scored a distinction in the subject and managing to tutor this subject quite a bit now, I have a set of techniques which will help better understand the subject.

Accounting

Grade 1 - Grade 12

Accounting is simply about piecing logic together in an ordered fashion. Having scored a distinction in the subject and later completing a few Accounting modules in University, I have a set of techniques which will improve your understanding of the subject.

AP Maths

Grade 1 - Grade 12

I have tutored Grade 10, 11 and 12 AP Maths. I have completed pure maths first-year level with a good pass mark.

Mathematics Literacy

Grade 1 - Grade 12

Although I did not do Mathematics Literacy in school, I have used my experience in tutoring Mathematics in various grades to tutor Mathematics Literacy on a few occassions.

Reviews from others

“Cameron grew in leaps and bounds in his confidence and his commitment to his studies whilst being tutored by Thami. Thami is an excellent tutor and role model and we thank him for his commitment to Cams studies. Highly recommend Thami he wowed and impressed in very way! Thank you ”

Jenny

“He has been an absolute gem and did not mind putting in extra time especially for the last matric exam. He was always prepared and if he didn't know, he would email Eben with updates. Thank you so much for your support over the years and especially the last month.”

Lindi

“Rhulani is very comfortable with Thami, he is has given her confidence in her studies not only the subjects he tutors her on but all of her subjects. She is more focused and dedicated in studying. With the little time she has spent with Thami her attitude towards her studies have changed.”

Kgomotso

“He made an extra effort to get past year papers to Caleb. He also kept us informed of the progress as the lessons went on and we were able to help appropriately. I found his punctuality to the lessons very refreshing.”

Syan

“Thami understands the subject matter, bith maths and accounting, is patient and will not live a topic unclear even when the time has lapsed. Unathi is comfortable with him, which is comendable as she naturally struggles to get comfortable with people. I would recommend Thami any day and look forward to continued lessons even in Matric.”
