Afrikaans Success

Good afternoon Stellie,

My son is in your Grade 8 Group class.. You are the most passionate and dedicated tutor I know. Thank you so much for listening to his prepared reading voice notes which he sent so late at night. Of course you didn’t just listen to them and send a note back! You sent back several voice notes showing him how to pronounce the words and when to use the different voice pitches to enhance his reading piece. You also reminded him that posture and eye contact are important aspects of the delivery . You always go the extra mile. You are so appreciated! He got a 100% for his reading piece. Thank you again.

Hi Miss Stellie
I just got my mark back for my transactional: 29/30! Thank you so much for your help. This is the first time since the start of high school that I actually did really well in a transactional. Lost a mark because I made a spelling error. Dom mistake on my part!
I got 92% for Afrikaans this term. Thank you so much for your help!

My kids tell me how the lessons are so fun, and how it increases their vocabulary. You make things easier for them to understand, because we speak English at home. Your videos are so interactive. You tell them things that their teachers don't. My son's marks quickly went up by 10%. And my children have gained so much confidence! Thank you very much.

I'd recommend this subscription for anyone whose child is doing Afrikaans FAL. I find your videos and explanations excellent. My 10 year old girl battles with Afrikaans, and my Afrikaans isn't great either, so I'm finding that you are an absolute life-saver. Your videos are very time-efficient. When I tell my daughter to go and watch one of your videos, she gets very excited. She really enjoys the videos. We get a lot done because the videos are short and interactive. I don't have to sit with her. She said, "Mom, I can do this on my own." She learns well, without me having to supervise her. Thank you so much for this!

Stellie is a dedicated and passionate teacher. From day one of speaking to her, she shared her approach to teaching the Afrikaans language. Her approach is practical, she uses vocabulary in context with explanations and her video lessons are fun with songs and colourful pictures. She reinforces grammar rules in a systematic manner building on what was learnt previously. The lessons are online, watched at your own convenience and supplementary material is shared. Our daughter is enjoying working through the modules and we appreciate that Stellie has followed up on her progress. I highly recommend an initial assessment by Teacher Stellie who then guides on what modules to begin with. She has helped our daughter to embrace Afrikaans homework and prep for exams. Thank you Stellie… your passion and dedication are acknowledged and appreciated ☺️
