Experience
I have worked voluntarily as a Mathematics and Zulu tutor at Rochester House (UCT residence) from February 208 - November 2018. I also was a mentor at that time.
Teaching Approach
I believe that knowing the basics is a very fundamental tool you can use to solve almost each an every problem you encounter. So my teaching style is that I make sure that the student understands the basics. I then ask the students relevant questions that will help in solving the problem.
