Description of tutoring experience

I have extensive experience working academically with students ranging from Grade 4 to Grade 12, including those with special needs such as dyslexia and ADHD. In addition to providing support for neurodivergent students, I also assist with exam preparation, speeches, homework, and projects. My academic record is exceptional and can be provided upon request. I have tutored friends and peers in school, often at the request of teachers and parents. Currently, I am collaborating with a teacher on a Math Lit book to assist future Grade 11 and matric students. Additionally, I contribute to my former high school by assisting with lesson notes and teaching during Winter schooling sessions.

Life Orientation

Introduction to families

"Dear Family" message

Dear Family, My name is Chianté. I'm an entrepreneur and a dedicated student currently working as a Social Media Marketer. In addition to my professional pursuits, I am also a part-time tutor and au pair for a neurodivergent child. I have a deep passion for helping children learn new skills and expand their knowledge. I believe that everything in life begins with the bright minds of our youth. I would be honored to be a part of your children's journey, witnessing their growth and supporting them as they become the best versions of themselves.

Why I would make the perfect au pair

In addition to my adaptability and creative flair, I believe several qualities make me well-suited to be an excellent au pair. Firstly, my experience in giving lessons to children at a Creative Craft center reflects my ability to engage and connect with young minds in a fun and educational way. Moreover, my close relationship with my younger sister has honed my nurturing and caregiving skills from a young age, instilling in me a natural sense of responsibility and empathy. Furthermore, my commitment to your family extends beyond mere employment; I genuinely aspire to become a trusted and integral part of your household, fostering a warm and supportive environment for your child's growth and development. With a genuine passion for nurturing young minds and a dedication to prioritizing your child's mental well-being, I am confident in my ability to be a reliable and nurturing au pair for your family.

Hobbies and other interests

With a strong educational background in commerce, I am well-equipped to assist with various administrative tasks such as filing, sorting, handling invoices, booking parcels, and managing emails if needed. My ability to quickly grasp new concepts ensures that I can fulfill these duties efficiently. Outside of work, I have a diverse range of interests and hobbies. I am passionate about art, reading, horse riding, cooking, and baking. I enjoy exploring new ideas and innovations, particularly when it comes to teaching and helping my students succeed. I find joy in expanding young minds through colorful and creative learning experiences. Moreover, I am an avid animal lover, and my appreciation for the world around me knows no bounds. I approach life with optimism and positivity, always seeking out the beauty and wonder in every moment. With my enthusiasm for learning, teaching, and embracing the world with open arms, I am confident in my ability to bring joy, creativity, and warmth to any environment.
