About me
English

I graduated from the University of Cape Town with a BSc in Mathematics and Applied Mathematics and have been tutoring matric and first-year university students for 6 years.

I am passionate about making mathematics accessible to all students, regardless of their background. I specialise in NSC Matric Mathematics and Physical Sciences, and university-level calculus and linear algebra for UCT, Stellenbosch, and Wits students.

Zulu / isiZulu

Ngikhiqiziwe eLuniversiti yaseKapa ngeBSc yeMathematics neMathematics esekelwe. Ngifundise abafundi abamatrikula kanye nabafundi baseuniversity yokuqala iminyaka eyisithupha.

Ngithanda ukwenza izibalo zibe lula kubo bonke abafundi, noma ngabe bangaphi. Ngikhethe izifundo zeNSC Matric neMathematics yePhysical Sciences.

My approach

My teaching approach

I start each session by understanding what the student finds difficult and why. I focus on building genuine understanding rather than memorising procedures. I use past NSC exam papers extensively and make sure every student knows how to structure their answers for maximum marks.

Indlela Yami Yokufundisa

Ngiqala ngokunquma ukuthi umfundi uthole kuphi ubunzima, bese ngakha uhlelo lokufunda olwenziwe ngokukhetha. Ngisebenzisa amaphepha eNSC adlule kakhulu futhi ngiqinisekisa ukuthi wonke umfundi uyazi ukuhleleka izimpendulo zakhe ukuze athole amaphoyinti amaningi.
