What I'm looking for

I seek a role that allows me to inspire students and foster a love for learning.

With over 30 years of experience in education, I have dedicated my career to teaching and tutoring students from Grade 4 to Grade 12. My journey began as a third-year student at Vista University, where I tutored English literature, and has evolved into a fulfilling role as a self-employed tutor. I have also served as the Head of Department for Intermediate and Senior Phases, where I honed my leadership skills and developed innovative teaching strategies.

Throughout my career, I have been recognized for my commitment to excellence, receiving the Vice-Chancellor’s Merit Award for English Literature at Vista University. My passion for teaching is evident in my ability to present engaging lessons and workshops, including a recent matric workshop for Eduvos. I believe in the power of education to transform lives and strive to exceed my employer's expectations in every responsibility entrusted to me.
