About
I am a Pharmacist by profession who is passionate about science and drug discovery. I also like music and playing with children. I am currently studying a PhD in organic Chemistry which entails developing new inhibitors for various diseases using Computer Aided Drug Design Approaches(CADD) and validation by organic synthesis.
Throughout my studies I have been teaching during my spare time. I am good at explaining concepts and simplifying sciences that many find intimidating. I also like one on one teaching as this allows to understand where the student is really at as some people are too shy in classroom environments. I base my classes on individualism and grasping of foundational principles. I like to assess students before I start lessons to see where the student is struggling and how best they can be assisted. I also use visual aids to explain concepts.
Master of Pharmaceutical Chemistry (Feb 2017-Dec 2017) University of Kwa-Zulu Natal, Durban South Africa.
Bachelor of Pharmacy (Sep 2011-Sep 2016) University of Zimbabwe, Harare Zimbabwe.
Cambridge IGCSE and GCE (2005-2010) Petra High School, Bulawayo, Zimbabwe.
Student texts vary depending on the syllabus one is taking. I normally work with the text or syllabus that the student is already working on as this limits confusion, unless the student requests to switch to something else. I have a lot of experience in teaching the Cambridge syllabus as I am very familiar with it having studied it myself and most of my students who requested tutoring were using the Cambridge syllabus. I haven't had problems though teaching students using different syllabi as the foundational principles are the same. I have seen from experience that regardless of the syllabus one is taking, science principles remain the same.
