About Rochelle
Hello, my name is Rochelle, and I am a professional and experienced Afrikaans tutor with a strong academic background and a structured, learner-focused approach. I hold an LLB degree and have 5 years’ experience tutoring learners from pre-school up to Grade 12, across both CAPS and IEB curricula.
I take my role as an educator seriously and pride myself on being reliable, well-prepared, and attentive to each learner’s needs. I understand that Afrikaans can be challenging for many students, particularly where there are gaps in foundational understanding or confidence. My focus is always on helping learners build clarity, accuracy, and confidence in both written and spoken Afrikaans.
I teach in Afrikaans and English and tailor my lessons to the learner’s level, pace, and specific challenges. Whether a student needs support with grammar, writing, comprehension, or oral work, I approach each lesson with patience, structure, and care.
Innovation, consistency, and clear communication are central to how I work. I aim to create a calm, supportive, unique learning environment where learners feel encouraged to ask questions, learn from mistakes, and grow in confidence.
My goal is not only improved academic results, but learners who feel capable, confident, and in control of their Afrikaans language skills.

My approach to Afrikaans tutoring is structured, diagnostic, and highly learner-specific. Afrikaans is not a subject that improves through repetition alone — progress comes from understanding how language rules, vocabulary, and expression work together. I focus on identifying where a learner is getting stuck and why, then addressing those specific weak points in a deliberate and practical way.
I am an LLB graduate with 5 years’ experience tutoring Afrikaans from pre-school up to Grade 12, across both CAPS and IEB curricula. Over time, I have worked with learners who present a wide range of challenges, including gaps in foundational knowledge, language anxiety, slow processing, and attention-related difficulties. This experience has allowed me to recognise patterns in errors and adapt my teaching to support different learning needs effectively.
Lessons are carefully structured and adapted to the learner. Depending on the student, lessons may focus on:
Spelling, grammar, and sentence construction, with emphasis on accuracy and clarity
Reading comprehension and vocabulary, including understanding context and meaning
Writing skills, such as paragraphs, essays, summaries, and creative tasks
Formal writing, including transactional texts and exam-style responses
Oral work, such as speeches and prepared talks, with focus on confidence and fluency
A typical lesson begins with identifying gaps or recurring errors, followed by clear explanations and guided practice. I work at a pace that suits the learner, ensuring concepts are properly understood before moving forward. This approach is particularly effective for learners who feel overwhelmed, have learning gaps, or require more structured guidance.
I teach in Afrikaans and English and aim to create a calm, supportive environment where learners feel comfortable asking questions and making mistakes as part of the learning process.
My Afrikaans lessons are suited to:
- Pre-school, primary school, and high school learners (up to Grade 12)
- Students taking Afrikaans as Home Language or First Additional Language
- Learners with gaps in understanding or confidence
- Students preparing for assessments, oral tasks, or exams
- Speeches
My goal is to help learners build strong language foundations, develop confidence, and gain practical control over Afrikaans in both academic and everyday contexts.
Recommendations
Recommendations are written by the tutor's friends, family, and acquaintances.
As a parent, finding a tutor who can genuinely connect with children at different stages has been incredibly difficult—until we started working with Rochelle.
She has tutored both our Grade 3 and Grade 7 children, and the improvement has been remarkable. What stood out immediately was how patient, structured, and intuitive she is. He doesn’t just “go through the work” — she makes sure the concepts actually land.
Our Grade 3 child went from feeling anxious about maths to approaching it with confidence and curiosity. Concepts that used to cause frustration are now explained in a way that makes sense to them, without pressure or overwhelm.
For our Grade 7 child, the impact has been even more visible. Marks have improved, but more importantly, their understanding has deepened. Rochelle is excellent at identifying gaps from previous years and fixing them properly, which has made a noticeable difference at school.
What we appreciate most is that she brings structure, calm, and consistency. Lessons are focused, productive, and tailored to each child. As parents, that peace of mind is invaluable.
We’ve seen not only academic improvement, but also a shift in confidence and attitude towards learning. We would confidently recommend Rochelle to any parent looking for a tutor who is reliable, highly capable, and genuinely invested in their child’s progress.See more recommendations
