Bio
A caring, empathetic soul who does not accept things at face value. I believe that everyone can be great, and I am a catalyst to help my students reach their greatness.
I acknowledge the fact that helping others academically is mutually beneficial because it also challenges you as an individual. "Your success is my success". I used to help out of a lot of my peers back in high school with math, physics and life sciences, as those were my strong points. This desire to help others also shows itself in the medical career I am pursuing. All in the name of Ubuntu.

Life Sciences (Biology)
The love I have for biology is the reason why I study medicine at the moment. During my matric year, I did not just get the highest life science mark in school, but rather the highest mark in the district. That's how serious I am! I want to help those who would love to improve their performance.
Physical Science
Physical Sciences was one of my favourite subjects in high school. Challenging, yes, but that's what I loved about it. I excelled in physics during my whole high school career, often proving people wrong when they said Physics is "hard". Everyone can love and appreciate science.
Afrikaans
I started learning Afrikaans in primary and I am currently taking it as a language course in university. Language is best learned with confidence and that begins with having a confident teacher.
Economics
I owe my success in economics to my own tutor during high school. I have learned the skill of simplifying complex ideas into everyday experiences to understand a subject. That’s a skill I have mastered and would love to share.
Mathematics
Maths is often seen as a daunting subject but a combination of persistence, patience, and an encouraging teacher is what led me to love this challenging subject. Sometimes all we need is a push to realize our own potential.
