Hi, I’m Tadiwanashe! I’m currently completing a Bachelor of Engineering in Civil Engineering, where I get to combine my love for problem-solving with real-world applications. In my matric year, I achieved three distinctions—91% in Chemistry, 86% in Physics, and 82% in Mathematics. I’ve always had a passion for Maths; there’s something deeply satisfying about uncovering the logic behind each problem and helping others do the same.

I’ve been tutoring for the past five years, and during this time I’ve learned that effective tutoring goes beyond academics. I don’t see myself as just a teacher—I aim to create an interactive and supportive space where students can feel heard, ask questions freely, and grow both academically and personally. My sessions are tailored not only to help students improve their marks but also to build their confidence and offer guidance that extends into life beyond the classroom.

In my spare time, I enjoy staying active through sport and physical activities. I also love being outdoors, taking walks, and exploring new places through sightseeing. When I’m not out and about, you can find me in the kitchen experimenting with new recipes—cooking has become one of my favorite creative outlets.
