About Tendekai
Think I've always been a top student? Think again.
In primary school, I was placed in a special class for slow learners. In high school, my Grade 11 results were so bad I couldn't even apply to university; I had to take a gap year just to fix my mistakes. I know exactly what it feels like to sit in a classroom and believe you're simply "not smart enough."
But halfway through Grade 12, something clicked. I decided my past didn't get to write my future. I worked relentlessly, turned my grades around, and eventually went on to lead my faculty (Engineering, Built Environment & IT @Tuks), run the SAIMechE student chapter, and represent the Zimbabwean Student Society.
I'm sharing this not to impress you, but to prove one thing: Your current marks do NOT define your potential.
I've been mentoring struggling high school and university students since 2020, and I've seen this transformation happen again and again. I don't judge you for not getting it yet, I help you figure out how you learn best.
If impostor syndrome has been telling you that you don't belong in STEM, let me help you prove it wrong. You are capable of wonders. I've been where you are, and I promise there's a way out. Let's find it together :)

Let's be real: most people overcomplicate STEM. I strip the jargon away and teach you the logical bones underneath. My methodology is simple; we start where you are, not where the syllabus says you should be.
A Typical Session Breakdown (Can be adjusted to meet student needs):
1* Bridge Building (5 mins): We connect today's topic to something you already understand.
2* The Breakdown (20 mins): I introduce the theory using step-by-step visuals and everyday examples.
3* Battle Drills (25 mins): We fight through exam questions together. I teach you how to read a question properly, what the examiners are looking for, and how to manage your time.
4* The Independent Test (10 mins): You face a final question alone, proving to yourself that you can do it.
Logistics:
A* Have your syllabus and past papers ready. We use your school/uni material so you're not learning irrelevant content.
B* I give light, focused homework after every lesson—it takes 15 minutes max, but it doubles your retention.
Need to reschedule? Just let me know 24 hours in advance.
Languages: I offer sessions in "English, Shona, and Zulu"—whatever makes you most comfortable.
