Helpmekaar KollegeEnglish Teacher
Jan. 2020 - Dec. 2022City of Johannesburg, Gauteng, South AfricaHelpmekaar Kollege is an IEB-affiliated school. While I primarily taught English Home Language and Further Studies English (both to a Matric-level), I also taught English First Additional Language. Helpmekaar was a place of growth and development for me. Through exceptional mentorship and participation in Matric marking, I cemented my understanding of the IEB syllabus and guidelines, learning to effectively help learners navigate the nuances of my subject within the framework examined—a skillset enhanced by participation in matric marking. I was a natural leader and teacher, excelling in front of a classroom. I related well with my learners, who consistently achieved good results. I was passionate and dedicated to fulfilling the needs of the learners. Teaching during COVID-19 lockdowns accelerated my ability to blend technology and traditional teaching methods. I was a dedicated member of staff who strived for the success of the team I worked with. I was active in extra-curricular activities, believing that facilitating participation outside the classroom was key to creating well-rounded learners. My extra-curricular responsibilities included organising the Community Outreach (Uitreik) Programme, heading the school swimming team, coaching the Grade 10 Speech Guild team, and coordinating and helping the learners prepare for the English Olympiad.
