Cheyenne D

Hi, I’m Cheyenne! I have completed a Bachelor of Arts in Life Performance with a major in stage acting and a sub-major in screen acting. In my matric year, I achieved seven distinctions, including 91% in English, 88% in Afrikaans, 87% in Business Studies, 92% in Drama, 95% in Life Orientation, 83% in Life Science, and 96% in Maths Literacy. My educational background and achievements reflect my dedication to learning and my commitment to helping others succeed.

From 2016 to 2020, I volunteered as a tutor at a low-income school provided by a local church, where I worked with students from Grade 1 through Grade 7. I tutored in various subjects, including English, Afrikaans FAL, Maths, Natural Science, History, Geography, and Life Orientation. My focus was on assisting students who lacked support at home, helping them understand challenging topics and prepare for exams. I also worked with younger students on reading skills and language comprehension. This experience, although informal, was invaluable in shaping my understanding of diverse learning needs. Recently, I have started working with BrightSparkz, where I tutor high school learners, tailoring my approach to meet their specific needs and deepen their understanding of the material.

As a tutor, my role is to identify each student’s unique needs and address any gaps in their knowledge. I aim to make every child feel seen and heard, challenging them with work that extends beyond their current curriculum. My goal is to inspire curiosity and foster a love for learning. In my spare time, I enjoy all forms of creativity, including crocheting, sewing, and reading. Dancing is another passion of mine; I’ve explored over five styles and currently focus on ballroom. I also cherish quiet family time, the beach, and being outdoors. My diverse interests and enthusiasm for learning help me connect with students and inspire them to explore their own potential.
