Native Bilingual Tutor | Wits CS Honours & Ex-Software Engineer | Math, Coding & Languages (Grades 7–12) About me: I'm a bilingual tutor born in Israel and raised in South Africa, with native fluency in both English and Hebrew. I hold an Honours degree in Computer Science from Wits University and spent two years as a software engineer before starting my own recruitment company - so today I have the flexible schedule to help students excel academically and build genuine confidence. Having personally navigated the move between the Israeli and South African schooling systems at age 14, I know exactly how to bridge the cultural and linguistic gaps international students face. Where I've tutored: Tri-Tutors — High-school Mathematics. One-on-one maths tutoring for high-school students (Grades 8–12), meeting each learner at their level and rebuilding foundations wherever the gaps were. University of the Witwatersrand — Computer Science Tutor. Tutored undergraduates (18+) through core CS material — algorithms, discrete structures, computer organisation and parallel computing. Independent — Psychometric Maths Prep. Coached a student through the maths section of her psychometric test. A result I'm proud of: A Grade 12 maths student who came to me failing and left able to hold his own — we rebuilt his foundations methodically until the subject clicked, and his marks followed.
“I like to start by sitting down with a student to understand what they're studying, where their strengths are, and where the gaps have crept in. From there we close those gaps layer by layer — and if that means going back a grade or two to rebuild the foundations, we do exactly that, until they feel there's nothing missing underneath them and the confidence follows.”
