Genevieve Prins

I started studying in 2014 but because of various constraints, I had to pause the completion of my degree.

Last year, I decided to complete my degree. I have 90% of the module requirements and will be expected to graduate by December 2024.

I am qualified to teach adults after completing this Higher Certificate.

Teaching speaking lessons to learners in Turkey and Israel. Currently I am teaching Grades 1 - 9. I enjoy showing up at each and every lesson with a positive attitude and teaching lessons in a humorous and energetic way.
My specialty is creating a calm and comfortable online classroom, where learners develop the confidence to share their thoughts and opinions freely while connecting with their teacher and other learners.

I have more than 10 years experience teaching in traditional classrooms all around South Africa.
I have mainly taught languages (English as a Home and Additional Language and Afrikaans). In addition to this, I have also taught Natural Sciences and Technology.
Teaching in South African schools has taught me a lot of patience, but mostly (and more importantly) how to teach in a classroom where students have different levels of understanding as well as different language needs.
I am also well suited to handle any class, even if there are behavioral challenges, since I have a calm and nurturing personality that inspires my learners to be calm while having lots of fun, learning!
