What I'm looking for

I seek roles where I can apply multilingual tutoring and web design skills, in supportive teams that value learning, impact and professional growth.

I am a multilingual tutor fluent in Afrikaans, English and German, with three years' experience tutoring students while completing a Bachelor of Commerce in Law at the University of Pretoria. I combine strong communication and teaching skills with practical experience in web design and site management.

I created and have managed the environmental website grefecsf.co.za for over a year, and I offer strengths in Excel, sales and customer service that support both my tutoring and web responsibilities. I take pride in helping students achieve academic success and maintaining effective, user-focused web projects.
