About Portia
I am a young lady from Pietermaritzburg. I have worked my way up the business ladder from Varsity to owning my own private company that focuses on various fields like supplying commodities, construction jobs and general building. The most interesting part of my journey which still continues, is passing the knowledge through tutoring my students. Experiences gained do not serve purpose if they are not shared to the next person with similar interest. I learn so much about myself through engaging with students as they share their unique and different takes on the subject of Economics and Business. I have journeyed long enough to appreciate the time I get to dedicate to my students, away from all the work and business responsibilities of the day. It grows me, grounds me and allows me to share my passion and knowledge. I hope we meet soon and begin our own journey through learning, while having fun unique and out of the box discussions! Thanks.

I’ve had the pleasure of learning from Ms Portia for the past few weeks, and I can confidently say they’re one of the best tutors I’ve ever worked with. Their deep understanding of Economics, combined with their ability to break down complex concepts into clear, relatable examples, made even the most difficult topics manageable.
Thanks to her guidance, my understanding of micro- and macroeconomic theory has greatly improved, and my academic performance has reflected that. Portia is very patient, professional, and has a genuine interest in seeing students succeed.
I highly recommend Portia to anyone seeking personalized, effective support in Economics. You won’t regret it!I've been using Portia as my tutor commerce subjects all high school. She is attentive and patient in her teaching style
I recommend her a lot.She's very kind, patient, helpful and truly cares about her profession and her students! I always enjoy having her as a Economics tutor and I appreciate how approachable she is. It means a lot to me that she check in with how things are going, because school can get pretty stressful.
Portia is very thorough when explaining economic principles. During my class with her, she was very professional and made sure that all the concepts in question were clearly explained and understood.
She is very reliable, goal-driven and a role model to many.
From my perspective, I think Portia would make a good tutor because firstly she is humble and an easy communicator so students would not fear her. She cares too much about how others are doing, that she would sacrifice her own time to help. I think she would make the best tutor you guess would ever have. I've known her from varsity as she was my roommate and she would always have visitors in our room to teach them the modules she was doing.
We, learners, need a tutor with a lot of moxie and Portia got it all. Especially as a grade 12 learner. Portia will help activate my goal of achieving 3 or more distinctions.
I've known this lady as the best student in our class, a very focused person with a good understanding of the module (economics) and she also has skills to teach and is very organised. I, therefore, believe that her contribution will give the best results in the end.
Portia was my study partner in varsity. She would take us through the economics topics and enlighten us so well, she will be the perfect tutor for your kids. I highly recommend her.
Tutor Portia is an enthusiast young educator by profession. She dedicates herself to breaking down and passing the information she knows to the next person. Not only is she qualified for this but she is also passionate about it which makes it much more easier to work with her. Further to that, she's a good leader whom many can look up to.
I was a student with PortIa and she is a very talented young lady who wants and ensures the best results for her students. She puts her student's needs first and would be a great asset to Superprof. Working with Portia would be exceptional for the students, and I strongly recommend her.
Portia is a well organiSed and dedicated person. She likes to share whatever that she knows with other people, someone who really enjoys working with others. She's always up to help even if it's not for money.
Portia is very informed! Over the years I’ve known her for giving 110% to all tasks on hand at any given time! She most definitely knows how to deliver information correctly and can bring it to your level of understanding.
She is a phenomenal tutor who makes a student understand all the ethics of economics and in doing that she also ensures you get excellent marks.
