About the tutor

Hello, My name is Zipho.

Born and raised in the vibrant city of Port Elizabeth, my love for music has always been a driving force in my life. From an early age, I discovered my true passion for singing and it has become an integral part of my identity. This led me to pursue a higher education at the prestigious University of Pretoria, where I further honed my musical skills and developed a deep understanding of teaching. I recently found myself in the bustling streets of South Korea, fully immersed in the rich culture that surrounded me. As my time there has drawn to a close, I am thrilled to be back in South Africa. What drives me the most as a teacher is my unwavering passion for students and their growth, both academically and personally. I firmly believe in empowering my students and making classroom concepts practical and relevant to their lives. As a young and relatable teacher, I strive to create a dynamic and engaging learning environment that encourages curiosity and a thirst for knowledge.


I have over 2 years teaching experience, where I have worked in various educational settings. I have taught both at an online as well as face-to-face school, teaching students from all age groups. Some of the students I have taught where in primary school, while the oldest students are working and some, even senior citizens.

I have a degree that specializes in commercial subjects such as Business Management, Accounting as well Economics. I also posses a TEFL certificate that has boosted my English teaching abilities. I am qualified to teach and registered with the South African Council for Educators and always keen and ready to put my skills and knowledge as a teacher, to great use.


Discover the joy of learning with me, Zipho! As a passionate tutor, I believe in empowering students and making learning practical. Whether you're a curious primary student or a working adult, I'll create a dynamic and engaging environment to fuel your thirst for knowledge. Let's grow together!
