Description of tutoring experience

Dear Family, I have experience tutoring children in various subjects, which has taught me the importance of patience, creativity, and adaptability in helping kids learn. For example, I worked with a Grade R boy to improve their reading and writing skills by making the sessions engaging through storytelling, games, and creative exercises. My goal is always to encourage confidence and curiosity in children, helping them not only understand their schoolwork but also develop a love for learning. I adapt my approach to suit each child’s unique needs and learning style, ensuring they feel supported and motivated. I’d be delighted to bring this same dedication and enthusiasm to support your child’s academic journey! Warm regards, Danel

Job description

It was a privilege to look after these 2 lovely boys. I only au pair them in the evenings if the parents wants to go out for the night. My duties was just to make sure they are in bed and save. I read stories to the 2 year old boy and played with him if I arrived early. Sometimes I bathed him if the mother gave me an instruction and also prepared meals for him. For the 8 month old boy I changed his diaper, prepared his bottles and cleaned it, read stories for him, bath him and put him into bed. I stayed there until the parents arrived back at home and at that time all 2 boys are asleep and safe.
