I really enjoyed English as a subject. In grade 11, we covered Animal Farm which was riveting and in matric we did Nothing but The Truth, a drama by Mr John Kani. I also enjoyed poetry!

Being an English teacher is more than just teaching grammar and literature—it’s about fostering a love for language, communication, and critical thinking. Every day, I have the opportunity to help learners express themselves with confidence, whether through writing, speaking, or analysing texts.

I was always the kid that read all the required and non-required novels for class. I matriculated with 87% for English, which reveals my love of the content. I am a law student where perfect English is expected in our documentation.
