I support children and adults across all year grades and levels, including:
Early Years, Primary, and Secondary students
Learners following the British, IB, or American curriculum
Students preparing for school entry, assessments, or exams

About Me
Simone Dahkoul
Welcome to Simone’s Tutoring! I’m Simone, from Cape Town, South Africa, a passionate tutor with years of experience helping students build their confidence and skills in Afrikaans and English. Whether it’s helping with homework, improving writing, or preparing for competitions, I’m here to make learning fun and engaging.
I believe in the power of personalized learning and tailor every lesson to meet the unique needs of each student. When I'm not teaching, I enjoy exploring creative ways to create resources for learning and writing children's books, making it both interactive and effective.
Fun fact: I love crafting creative stories with my students and watching them express their imagination in new languages!
Thank you for visiting! I look forward to helping your child thrive in their academic journey.
