Hello, my name Nkosazana, but you may call me Zana. I am from South Africa. I am currently a student myself, studying towards an LLB. I really enjoy the outdoors, and I spent a lot of my free time going on walks and hiking.
Me as a Teacher
My approach towards teaching is to make it as fun as possible. I have seen that the more exciting I make my lessons, the more enthusiastic my students are when it comes to learning. I always try and create a safe space for my students, where they know that they are allowed to make mistakes, as that is a part of the learning process. I truly do invest in my students, to ensure that at the end of our journey together, they have grown more confident in their learning.
My lessons & teaching style
I always create a learning program with the student dependent on how frequently the lessons are, so that we can keep track of the progress that we have made and if we have covered all our bases. Of course this plan is flexible, as some concepts may take a bit more time to grasp. But the importance of this plan is to ensure that at the end of our journey together, we have covered all the necessary bases. I will also include short activities for students to complete. This is to promote the students self - learning and critical thinking skills. These activities will always cover what we have learnt, and what I believe is within the capabilities of my student.
