As a passionate and dedicated Electrical Engineering student entering my third year, I have not only mastered core technical subjects but have also discovered a genuine enthusiasm for explaining these complex concepts to others. My academic journey has equipped me with a strong foundation in mathematics, physics, and fundamental engineering principles. I understand the challenges students can face with these demanding subjects because I navigate them daily myself. This allows me to connect with learners, identify their specific stumbling blocks, and break down intimidating topics into clear, manageable steps. I believe patience and clear communication are just as important as technical knowledge, and I am committed to helping students build both confidence and competence. My experience extends beyond solo achievement. Through countless group projects and study sessions, I have honed my ability to collaborate and explain ideas to peers with different learning styles. This has solidified my belief that a supportive, encouraging environment is key to academic growth—a philosophy I know aligns with the values at GoStudent. My well-rounded personality, which includes the teamwork of soccer, the discipline of running, and the focus found in reading, helps me connect with students on a personal level. I am not just a tutor; I am a mentor who understands the pressures and goals of being a student. Ultimately, my family-oriented background has instilled in me the values of patience, encouragement, and the importance of helping others succeed. I am eager to bring this supportive and dynamic approach to GoStudent, and I am excited by the prospect of helping my peers unlock their potential and achieve their academic goals in subjects like Math, Physics, and introductory Engineering. My educational journey has provided me with a strong and diverse academic foundation, culminating in my current specialized field of study. I began my studies at Cenaturi Combined School, where I attended from Grade 1 through Grade 7. This formative period was crucial in instilling in me the core principles of discipline and a lifelong love for learning, particularly in mathematics and science. For my secondary education, I attended Thohoyandou Secondary School, where I further developed this academic focus. The rigorous curriculum in subjects like Physical Science and Advanced Mathematics was instrumental in preparing me for the challenges of higher education and solidified my ambition to pursue a field rooted in technical problem-solving and innovation. I am currently advancing my studies at the University of Johannesburg, where I am enrolled in a Bachelor of Engineering program specializing in Electrical Engineering. My coursework has provided me with a deep and practical understanding of key engineering principles. I am actively developing specializations in several core areas, including: Electronic Circuit Design: Analyzing and designing analog and digital circuits. Power Systems: Understanding the generation, transmission, and distribution of electrical power. Signal Processing: Learning techniques to analyze and manipulate analog and digital signals. Engineering Mathematics: Applying advanced mathematical concepts to solve complex engineering problems. This technical knowledge, combined with the fundamental skills built throughout my schooling, allows me to confidently tutor subjects like Mathematics and Physical Science. I can explain not only the 'how' but also the 'why,' by connecting school-level topics to their real-world engineering applications, making learning more engaging and meaningful for my students.

Ich bin 51 Jahre alt, durfte schon einigen Schülern bei ihren Schulproblemen helfen, was mir immer wieder sehr viel Freude bereitet. Vor allem, wenn der Erfolg nicht ausbleibt. Ich arbeite auch sehr gerne mit Erwachsenen jeder Altersgruppe, auch da durfte ich schon viel an wertvoller Erfahrung sammeln. Momentan bringe ich mir Spanisch selbst bei und bin nicht abgeneigt, es auch mit Französisch zu versuchen. Dann wären die romanischen Sprachen ent und -abgedeckt:) Ich streame sehr gerne ausländische Serien, vorzugsweise in englischer und italienischer Sprache, um immer am Laufenden zu bleiben. Ich habe den Master in Germanistik sowie Anglistik. In Italienisch sind meine Kenntnisse auch ziemlich gut, da bilde ich mich hauptsächlich selbst weiter. Humor und Offenheit sind meine Stärken, damit gelingt es mir schnell, andere Mitmenschen zu gewinnen und Vertrauen aufzubauen. Mein Lebensmotto lautet: Geht nicht, gibt's nicht. Wenn es doch nicht geht, wähle ich einen Umweg, bis es klappt. Abschluss der 5-jährigen Handelsakademie mit Abitur /Matura. Zusätzliche Fremdsprache: Italienisch (Abitur /Matura wurde in diesem Fach mündlich abgelegt). Studium an der Universität Klagenfurt in Österreich: Anglistik in Kombination mit Germanistik / Deutsche Philologie.
