    About Me

    My name is Jeandré and I live in Cape Town, South Africa. I have worked as an English teacher for over five years and was a Drama, Musical Theatre, and Photoshop teacher. I have taught over 10,000 students in three different countries, with students ranging from the ages of 3 to 22, all coming from Korea, China, Japan, Thailand, and Russia. My career started in China, then South Korea, and for the past three years teaching English and Drama in South Africa and online and also indulging in educational content creation.

    I completed my Bachelor of Arts in Dramatic Arts and Film Studies degree in 2014 at the University of Pretoria and soon after, I completed my CELTA (Certificate in Teaching English for Adults) course at IH Language Lab. I also coordinated the island programs, creating curriculums and educational content for lessons. In the main program, I taught English to over 1500 new students weekly over a two-year period, where I taught multiple subjects with a focus on English and engaged in practices that enhanced their learning experiences. When I returned to South Africa, I was offered a substitute Dramatic Arts High School teacher position at FH Odendaal for Grade 10 to 12. Afterward, I entered an online teaching and content creation journey where I taught English online for the past three years at Whales English and other online teaching companies, teaching students from the ages of 3 to 14. Simultaneously, I started a job as an Educational Content Creator at Bla Bla Edu Tech.

    I have a fast understanding of all different subjects, students' ages, cultures, religions, educational backgrounds, families, and influences with a deeper appeal to be an all-rounded teacher by being influential in multiple facets through my teachings, my art, life lessons, my empathy and understanding for students. I'm an exceptionally fast learner with an insatiable thirst for knowledge and teaching and empowering others by utilizing my skills and experiences to enhance their experiences to the best degree.

    Education

    I studied BA in Drama and Film Studies at the University of Pretoria and completed my degree in 2014 and went to obtain a CELTA certificate at International House, Language Lab in Johannesburg in 2015.
