Subjects
- School Tutoring
English
English is a subject that one can easily achieve an A symbol for. The syllabus is the same and has never changed so if one focuses on learning the basics then they can do well. I tutored English in high school as a Peer tutor.
History
My keen interest and love for everything history has made it easy for me to study it. Yet more than is that my love for it makes it easy for me to be able to teach other people about history. I also tutored history in high school as a Peer tutor.
Zulu
Being a Zulu speaker is helpful in being able to achieve good marks in this subject. But further than that being consistent in studying helped in achieving good marks.

History
I opted to select History as an additional course in my first year due to my interest in it. My writing skills were sharpened during this period.

International Relations is also one of my manjors and I subject which I am passionate about. My writing and research ability in this regard resulted in my lecturer employing me as an intern in his company in my second year.
