About Me

Interest topicReadingMusicFood
I am a gap year student currently about to do my final year at the University of Pretoria in Business. I have experience in tutoring through mentoring my nieces and nephews and helping them navigate the English and Zulu language both professionally and casually. Teaching is and always has been my favorite part-time activity as I strongly believe in sharing knowledge to make someone else's life better. Teaching is also one of my long-term goals as I wish to open a private school one day.
I am also a seamstress and have my own clothing brand/business. Sewing adds happiness to my customers so making clothes that are tailor-made just for them brings me joy. I also enjoy socializing & nature.
Me as a Teacher
I am attentive, patient, and free-spirited. I enjoy fostering a comfortable and loving teaching environment where your needs will be met with care and patience.
My lessons & teaching style
My lessons will be centered around reading out loud, spelling tests and vocabulary, aswell as pronuciation. My classroom will be a space that is casual and open, where conversation and open dialogous will be had, because I strongly believe that teaching a language stretches further than just knowing the language alone.

Another great lesson with lots of background facts on Zulu culture. This puts the language in context and makes it much easier to learn. Ngiyabonga!

It's even more fun now that I'm starting to build real sentences, and as usual Nombuso is giving me fascinating cultural information as well. Ngiyabonga kakhulu! 😊

During Nombuso's lessons, on top of learning isiZulu, I get to know a great deal about the cultural context. Very engaging and great fun!

It has been another wonderful lesson! Nombuso is a very patient and attentive teacher, and efficient in guiding a student through the challenging complexities of isiZulu.
