I live in South-Africa where we have 11 official languages, of which Afrikaans is my home language and English my second language. I am an adventurous person and have a variety of different interests and hobbies. Among others, cooking, hiking, history of old buildings, long walks along the beach, photography, volunteering, animals, etc.
I love learning new skills. I know the challenges and excitement of learning something new.

Me as a Teacher
I grew up in an environment where I needed to communicate with different ages and cultures of people, it taught me the importance of community and communication. I have lots of experience in volunteering where we teach people, especially kids and young adults to memorize and learn new skills in a fun and interactive way. I feel that it has equipped me with the ability to be a good teacher and make a difference in the world even if it is a small difference.
My lessons & teaching style
My lessons are fun and interactive. I believe that every person is unique and different therefore every lesson will be specifically created to each student's needs and language level. It's important to enjoy the learning process and learning a language should be an enjoyable experience that is why students can make suggestions for lessons and tell me what their strengths and weaknesses are so that I can incorporate it into the lesson plan.

It is such a fun time when I speak to Ruané! She is very professional, reliable and well-organized. She is an expert in grammar and she manages to explain it very clearly, she does it in a way that anyone can understand it easily. Ruané, baie dankie vir die les! Dit is altyd 'n plesier om met jou te praat! Sien jou binnekort!
