Bio

I have a wide range of interests from embroidery to swimming, reading and film photography. I am passionate about people and I love working with people of all ages and backgrounds.

I have experience in working with kids ages 4 and up, all the way to university students. I was a mentor at Stellenbosch University and tutored Model United Nations, English, and Mathematical Literacy at the surrounding schools. I thrive on problem solving and finding creative solutions. I know that people learn differently and I view teaching/learning challenges as exciting rather than daunting.
