Information About Jacques - Jacques

Personal Description:

I am an energetic LLB Law Student at the University of Pretoria, with two additional psychology modules per year. I matriculated from Helpmekaar Kollege, where I was Deputy Head Boy and received the Prestige Honorary-award. I am very much interested in law, politics, psychology and human development. My mother has been in the education field for 30 years, after she had studied Educational Psychology and her work in the private education sector has inspired me to assist learners in achieving their full academic potential.

Tutoring Approach:

When assisting learners, I would like to focus on thought processes and different view points in learning, so that the learners will be fully capable to be understand the subject out of many angles. My approach is solution based, where I focus on what we want to achieve and how to get there, rather on pondering on what is not working. I believe in development by motivation.
