Passionate and Competent Tutor Determined to Achieve the Skills students desire

Hello everyone! I am an earnest teacher and qualified professional with more than eight years of experience in secondary school education in Kenya. I specialise in teaching French, English, Swahili and Social Studies subjects where the student is given individual assistance depending on the specific areas of need. I also work with students who are aiming to learn a new language, do well in their subjects or simply wish to understand the topic better. I am more than happy to work with you to help you reach your objective.

What is it that I Offer:
1. Lessons Tailored to You: Since I focus on students’ subject objectives and goals for the lesson, their comprehension and retention of content are guaranteed.

2. Teaching that Conveys Effective Learning: To enhance the student’s experience with the new information and skills, I implement hands-on, enjoyable and practical activities.

3. Targeted Exam Help: We will examine past papers, pinpoint areas that need additional focus and come together with effective strategies to help you do your best.

4. Forget your Fears: I always try to be as patient as I can which encourages learners to believe in their abilities and boost their self-esteem.

For what reason should we work together?

- Learners who were under my guidance have acquired a new language in a short time.
- Able to work with diverse learners and use different approaches for different age brackets and learning capabilities.
- Adaption: I get along perfectly with individuals of various age groups and levels of education, and this allows me to use different techniques for teaching all kinds of learners.
- Qualifications: Being a holder of a Bachelor’s degree in Education French, and having participated in some curriculum building, I'm pretty sure my lessons are of a high standard.
- Part-time Availability: Flexible scheduling to accommodate your busy timetable, including evenings and weekends.

    My tutoring fees are flexible and depend on several factors, including:
