Student in South Africa

About Me

Hello 👋 I’m Palesa, and I describe myself as an enthusiastic and dedicated undergraduate BEd student at the University of Johannesburg who majors in Business Management, together with Physical Education. I am passionate about teaching and making an impact in other people's lives, especially those we regard as “Young Minds”.

Tech Geek 🤓

In an increasingly complex and interconnected world, I am well-equipped to design engaging and interactive lessons that cater for the 4Cs of the 21st century (communication, collaboration, critical thinking and problem solving and creativity). As a 21st-century aspiring educator, I strongly recognise the importance of effective classroom management, fostering inclusivity, being digitally literate, as well as embracing the culture of community among students.

The reason I'm called a “Tech Geek” is because, I am interested in technology and I believe that it can enhance the overall quality of education in South Africa ! 🇿🇦
