About Me

I am a fun loving individual who enjoys the outdoors and hiking - even though I can tend to be a bit clumsy.
I love to help others understand different concepts and reach their full potential within a subject.
Reading is a huge passion of mine, I enjoy opening a book and finding myself in a new world entirely.

Education

IIE MSA, Bachelor of Social Sciences, Double Major in Psychology and Criminology (Minor in Child and Youth Development), 3.2 GPA, graduated April 2016.

UNISA, Bachelor of Arts(Hons) Counselling Psychology, 3.2GPA, graduated April 2020.

Grand Canyon University (correspondence), Master of Science in Mental Health and Wellness, currently holding a 4.0GPA, not yet graduated.

Experience / Qualifications

While in university I worked doing promotions and being a brand ambassador for different companies part time.
I also worked as a floor manager for a few months at one of the on-campus food vendors before they closed.

While finishing my last year of studies I went on to volunteer at a preschool and help out as an assistant teacher during my holidays and days off, after which I taught at that same preschool for 3 more years.

I then moved on to doing ABA therapy (behavioral therapy) with children with Autism and related disorders for 3 years, working my way up to team lead and even spending a year of that time working in Saudi Arabia doing the same thing.

When back in South Africa I moved onto tutoring, giving Reading therapy, confidence building, and facilitating children of varying ages through their homeschooling curriculum while also creating other learning content to expand their knowledge even more and build their confidence in their work.

Charming young lady.
Good awareness of children's challenges.

The teacher is up to the task. Thank you.
In these sessions I will help you to gain a better understanding of the content you are learning, as well as, help you to understand your assignment topics and how best to answer them by aiding you in building your critical thinking and essay writing abilities so that you can achieve the best possible results. I also provide proofreading and study skills.
Learn more about God as you go through your day. Learn about who he is, Who he created you to be and how you can work each day to better understand the bible and live in the way God called and created us to live. Daily Devotions, Q&A and confidence building (because you cannot love others the way you are called to, if you cannot first love yourself) and more.
My aim is to aid one in building confidence, knowledge and understanding of all things Mathematics. Once you can feel confident in your abilities and knowledge of the subject, you will start realize that it can be fun too. I know, I sound corny, but trust me. I will help to build your skill in the area/s of Mathematics that you find challenging, by first determining what areas you are struggling in through small activities, worksheets, and exercises, then, starting at the foundation of those particular areas, help you be able to understand and eventually, independently work through the tests, sums, equations and more that that area of Mathematics entails.
Sometimes we doubt ourselves and what we are capable of. That's human. However, I want you to be able to see yourself for who you really are and what you bring to the table. Confidence building is important for all age groups. It can help a child of 10 years old be able to come out of their shell, see what they are capable of, and find their own voice. It can do the same for a teenager who has experienced trauma and now does not know where they fit, how they move forward or who they truly are anymore. It can help all people, in all walks of life. Through building one's confidence and finding their own voice and who they are, they get the beautiful chance to experience life to the fullest without letting fear and anxiety of what others will think hold them back.

Spanish online lessons with native spanish teacher for adults and teenagers
I am a native Spanish speaker and a general language enthusiast. In addition to Spanish, I speak German and English. I am 100% confident that I will successfully teach you Spanish (while having fun and relaxing)! I've been teaching spanish for 15 years. I am 41 years old, graduated with honors from the University of Salamanca. My main goal in teaching is to make students feel relaxed and comfortable while studying. Do you already know Spanish? No problem! Rather than building the basics, we can design courses to suit your personal needs and preferences. We can write essays together, you can give presentations on topics that interest you or that I present to you, we can discuss current events, engage in debates, you can write summaries of newspaper articles, or we can delve into advanced grammar. Whatever you enjoy and need, we can do it together. All my courses combine speaking, listening and grammar practice in interaction with me. Unless you are a very advanced student, we work with learning materials created by some of the best language learning publishers in Germany. These materials serve as a common thread for our course, introducing new words, grammar and exercises at a good pace and in an interesting way, keeping you engaged and motivated. I also show you German food, music and places. In addition, I will introduce you to the best technological tools (homepages and applications) to boost your language learning and take it to the next level. Another important factor for me is the personal connection. We usually start our lessons with how the weekend or previous weekdays were like. Contact me now to arrange a first lesson in which we can get to know each other so that I can learn more about you, your needs and desires and thus design the optimal course for you.
