Tutor in Diep River, Cape Town • 36 years old
Bio
I am a certified life coach with an Honours in Psychology. I love connecting with teenagers and young adults to ensure they feel valued and supported as they take the next step in their journey.
I had cancer a few years ago, and that experience humbled me, showed me my strength and created a desire within me to help others be their best. I believe people flourish when they are invested in, and I love giving of my time to help others. Whether it is doing homework or discussing life goals, people benefit from verbally processing their thoughts when they feel supported and encouraged.
