Bio
I am a book worm who will always be ready to give a recommendation. I am a strong believer in balancing your life between work, your loved ones, your hobbies, animals and self care.
I am a good listener and will be able to understand the learners problems and help them accordingly. I am good at separating my personal life and work life. This helps me to focus on the task at hand. I am very patient. I believe that everyone learns at their own pace and I plan the lesson content around the students pace.

Subjects
- School Tutoring
English
I adore writing and creative thinking. I was published in English Alive (2017). Reading is one of my preferred hobbies and I enjoy delving into the deeper meaning of the text, which would be beneficial for the client in terms of literature studies.
Physical Science
I prefered physics over chemestry as it always made more sense to me, however many people have a "fear" of physics. I would enjoy helping others understand and excell at it.
Chemistry
I find chemistry to be very interesting. In Year 12 I over saw the younger grades science experiments as a teacher's helper.

I am an avid bookworm whose love of the English language progressed into writing. I would love to help others progress in their writing journeys be it formal or creative. My short story Life of Snow was published in English Alive 2017.

Conversational English
English is my native language. I am a fluent speaker, reader and writer. I adore assisting others in understanding the language, growing their vocabulary and confidence.
Italian
I am a native Italian speaker. I grew up in South Africa but speak Italian to my parents and family. I am fluent in both English and Italian and would easily be able to assist and converse in both languages to maximize understanding.
