I am currently a final year Actuarial Science student. The degree has taught me a lot about commitment and dedication which I try to apply to my everyday life. I matriculated with 8 distinctions and I was fortunate enough to be part of the top 25 Free State matriculants. I also obtained a Golden Key membership and have been a member since. I love working with people and I am quite approachable and friendly and willing to go the extra mile for clients. I want to be a tutor to be able to help people and also learn more. I strive to be someone who will be able to cultivate confidence in a subject, so that the learner not only performs well, but also enjoys the work. In my spare time, I love to read, draw and be creative.

Hi, I’m Didi! I’m currently completing a BCom in Accounting Sciences, where I am developing strong analytical and problem-solving skills. In my matric year, I achieved a distinction in Business Studies with 81%, along with great marks in Mathematics and Afrikaans. I also have experience with various subjects from primary school to high school level, which allows me to adapt my teaching approach to different learners’ needs. I believe that education is not just about results but about building confidence and a strong foundation for lifelong learning.

As a tutor, my goal is to guide and support learners with patience and care. I understand that every student learns differently, and I aim to break down concepts in a way that makes them easier to grasp. By creating a comfortable and encouraging learning environment, I help students feel more confident in their abilities and improve their problem-solving skills. My focus is not only on academic improvement but also on helping students develop the independence they need to succeed in their studies.

In my spare time, I have a strong interest in computers and technology. I enjoy exploring new advancements and understanding how things work. This curiosity and analytical mindset influence my tutoring style, as I encourage students to think critically and approach learning with enthusiasm. My goal is to make learning an engaging and rewarding experience for every student I work with.

I am currently in my second year of studying Business Science and Computer Science. I absolutely love tutoring all subjects, but I have to admit that Mathematics is my favourite. I would like to teach every student that once a topic is fully understood, you actually enjoy it so much more. I believe I make a great tutor because I adapt to all learning styles. My main goal is to make the learner feel comfortable enough to ask me any questions. I enjoy working with learners and showing them that learning can actually be fun. All you have to do is put in the work, and you’ll reap the rewards. In my spare time, I I enjoy playing the violin and piano, learning some extra coding skills, rollerskate and spend time learning about different cultures and their tasty cuisine!
