Lauren has completed a Bachelor of Science in Occupational Therapy and achieved stellar marks across all her Matric subjects. As a paediatric occupational therapist, she has developed a strong understanding of how children learn, communicate and develop, giving her a valuable perspective when supporting learners academically. Her professional background also means she is comfortable working with children with a wide range of learning and developmental needs. Lauren has extensive experience working with children, including supporting them with homework and classwork, and she now works with children almost every day in her role as an Occupational Therapist.

She has extensive experience supporting children with ADHD, dyslexia, Down syndrome, autism, vision and hearing disabilities, speech disorders, and mobility and physical impairments. She believes a tutor should guide and encourage learners, help them work towards their goals and work alongside parents to provide consistent support.

Lauren is highly recommended by our team for her sweet, conversational and approachable nature. She is well equipped to tutor Maths, English, Music, Physical Science and Life Science from primary through to high school level. English is her first language, and she has a strong affinity for Maths and Science, having enjoyed and assisted with these subjects herself. She also attended music school and has a natural confidence with Music. Her experience as a paediatric occupational therapist allows her to adapt her approach to suit individual learners and create a patient, supportive environment where children feel comfortable and encouraged.

Outside of her professional work, Lauren enjoys music, gaming and spending time with family and friends. Her warm personality and natural ability to connect with children make her particularly well suited to younger learners. She brings the same patience, encouragement and genuine care into tutoring that she uses in her work with children every day.

Hi, I’m Megan! I have completed a Bachelor of Education and have been teaching in classrooms in South Africa since 2007. My strong academic background is rooted in the CAPS curriculum, under which I achieved highly consistent marks, demonstrating a particular strength and passion for Music.

I have successfully tutored English, Afrikaans First Additional Language, and Maths to many learners, always adapting my methods to suit individual needs.  My deep musical expertise ensures I am fully equipped to handle advanced tutoring up to high school Music. Over nearly two decades of classroom and childcare experience, I have developed a specialised skill set for supporting diverse learners, including those facing barriers to learning such as ADHD and Dyslexia. 

My core philosophy is to meet children exactly where they are, taking them back to a point where they feel capable and can cope, before carefully scaffolding and building their knowledge up from there. My goal is to build each student’s confidence, enabling them to recognise their own growth and enjoy the benefits of their hard work.  

Outside of teaching, I enjoy embroidery, spending time with animals, reading and gardening, which help me maintain a balanced and creative outlook on life :)

Hi, I’m Mangaliso! I am currently completing a Bachelor of Engineering in Mechanical & Mechatronic Engineering. In my matric year, I achieved 5 distinctions, including 80% in English, 89% in Maths, 86% in IT, 85% in Music, and 89% in Physical Science, along with strong marks in Life Orientation. My academic background has strengthened my problem-solving skills, patience, and ability to explain concepts in a clear and practical way.

As a tutor, I aim to spend meaningful one-on-one time with each learner to help improve both their marks and their understanding of the work. I understand that classroom environments do not always cater to every learner’s needs, which is why I focus on creating a calm, supportive, and encouraging space where students feel comfortable asking questions and learning at their own pace. I am friendly, approachable, and kind, and I believe these qualities help me connect well with learners who may need extra patience and reassurance. My goal is to build confidence in my students while helping them develop clarity and independence in their studies.

In my spare time, I enjoy music and occasionally play the guitar. I also enjoy gaming, learning about cars, and working out. Coding is another interest of mine, although I have not yet done many personal projects in that area. I believe my broad range of interests helps me relate well to different learners and keeps my teaching style engaging, adaptable, and encouraging.

Hi, I’m Sheldon! I’m currently completing a Bachelor of Laws (LLB) degree, which requires sharp analytical skills and a strong command of language—qualities I bring directly to my tutoring. In my matric year, I achieved three distinctions in History, Music, and Mathematics, along with strong results in English. These achievements reflect my disciplined approach to various subjects. I’ve been tutoring for many years, accumulating hundreds of hours helping students to overcome challenges and achieve their academic goals.

I want to be someone you can look up to for motivation and clarity. My focus is always on helping you discover and harness your full capabilities, building your confidence so you can approach difficult material not with dread, but with a firm belief in your ability to succeed.

When I’m not focused on my studies or tutoring, I thoroughly enjoy taking time for myself. I love playing tennis, hiking, and golf to clear my head and get some fresh air, especially when I feel overwhelmed. I also have a passion for music, and participating in choir and other musical activities is one of my favourite pastimes. These activities teach discipline and patience, which are essential attributes I bring to every tutoring session

In my matric year, I achieved 6 distinctions, including 84% in Afrikaans, 86% in Mathematics, 88% in Economics, 87% in IT, and 86% in Music. I’ve always had a strong passion for both analytical and creative subjects, which has shaped my approach to learning and tutoring.

I believe that when a student truly understands the “why” behind their work, learning becomes much more meaningful and enjoyable.

In my spare time, I enjoy playing video games, which helps me relax and stay sharp. I also play the trumpet and piano, which allow me to stay connected to my creative side.
