I am a recent graduate with an honours Mechanical and Mechatronic engineering degree from UCT. I love helping students understand difficult concepts and excel in their studies to achieve their academic goals.
I am very inquisitive and helpful and I pride myself in my people skills and am thus open to offering a helping hand to anyone. I ask a lot of questions as a general character trait which is helpful in tutoring as I can gauge how well the information I am putting across is received.
Some of my greatest achievements have been assisting a C student obtain an A in Mathematics that she needed to get into varsity, working hand in hand with an ADHD student as well as learning patience and gentleness through working with children/toddlers.
