About Jaco
I'm a high school science teacher with an M.Ed in Advanced Teaching, specializing in STEM with a focus on inquiry-based learning. I currently teach Biology and Integrated Science, and I've taught both in Cape Town and internationally, which has given me a broad perspective on how students learn best across different settings and curricula.
What I enjoy most about teaching is the moment a concept finally clicks. Science can feel overwhelming when it's presented as a list of facts to memorize, but once students understand the "why" behind it, it becomes much more approachable and, honestly, a lot more interesting.
As a tutor, I work with students to break down tricky topics, build confidence, and develop the kind of scientific thinking that sticks well beyond the next exam. I'm patient, encouraging, and I adapt each session to the student in front of me, whether that means revisiting the basics, working through past papers, or going deeper for students who want a challenge.
Whether you're catching up, getting ahead, or just want science to finally make sense, I'd love to help.

Lessons are tailored to each student's needs and goals, whether that's preparing for a test, catching up on missed content, strengthening core skills, or going beyond the syllabus.
Subjects: Biology, General/Integrated Science, and middle and high school science more broadly.
Levels: Middle school through high school (Grades 7–12).
Curricula: Experienced with NGSS (American curriculum), and comfortable supporting [CAPS / IGCSE / IB — keep whichever apply].
What a typical session looks like:
A quick check-in on what the student is working on and where they're feeling stuck
Working through the concept together using questions, examples, diagrams, and real-world connections rather than just lecturing
Practice with exam-style questions, data interpretation, or written explanations
A short recap so the student leaves knowing exactly what they've learned and what to focus on next
Format: [Online / in person in Cape Town / both]. Online lessons use a shared whiteboard and documents so we can work through problems together in real time.
Parents: I'm happy to share brief updates on progress and areas to focus on, so you know how your child is doing.
The first lesson is a chance to get to know the student, identify any gaps, and set clear goals for our sessions together.
