About Kobus
I have been involved in education & broadcasting for the past 35 years – presenting, speaking, writing scripts, producing Radio & TV programs, doing copywriting for Radio & TV commercials, translating and proofreading and coaching and training for many institutions and companies. I am a modern, enthusiastic, energetic and inspiring teacher, who keeps the audience fascinated, intrigued and excited. I have a wonderful, blessed connection with people. My strongest skill is creativity - to be original and unique, to teach, explain, present and direct. I am very patient. I strive to deliver an excellent product to a listener, client or class. I understand how people are learning and how to explain things to them in the simplest way - with their participation and practical involvement. I worked in radio and TV at the SABC for 11 years, then my wife and I established a community radio station in Pretoria where I was the CEO for 18 years. Since 2014 I've been freelancing - doing productions and recordings at my own studio, lectured radio at Boston Media College and presented language and broadcast courses.
About the lesson
- All Levels
- English
All languages in which the lesson is available :
English
How to MC, Radio & TV presenting and broadcasting/podcasting are taught in English and/or Afrikaans. With in-depth experience in the field for the past 35+ years, coaching, training and consulting, we offer practical as well as theoretical classes. A lesson will include: the teaching of new material AND the practical application of what was taught. We always listen and watch material from radio stations, YouTube, TV or podcasts. Radio = audio and Television = audio and vision! We teach by listening, watching, presenting and learning from each other. Very little training and practical coaching are available for MC's, Radio & TV. Many and most of the speakers and presenters learn by hit & run, or on-air: a try, stumble and fail experiment trying to find out what works and what not. Lessons are aimed at speakers, presenters or dee-jays already on-air as well as new, inexperienced people who want to pursue a career as public speaker, in radio, television as well as podcasting. Young or old - one is never too old to learn! We also give ample attention to the technical aspects and running order of MC-ing or presenting for radio, TV and podcasting.

Kobus is a trustworthy tutor and my experience during the past year has been most exciting and helpful. With limited knowledge I have been able to communicate with people on a friendly note and earned their respect with a 'Whoa'' response. Thank you Kobus.
What an amazing experience the classes were. Can highly recommend Kobus as a tutor. His patient, knowledgeable and his teaching method makes you want to learn!
Through the years I've always looked up to Kobus as a mentor and I enjoy his witty sense of humor. That is besides the fact that he knows his craft. Thanks Kobus.
I am following lessons with Mister Kobus for a long time now and he knows Sepedi (Northern Sotho) very well. Kobus brings structure in his lessons and that's what I appreciate. Moreover the lessons are combined with a good sense of humor. Thanks to Kobus I managed to learn the basics of Sepedi and to set my footsteps on the pathway to a deeper contact with other people who speak Sotho.
I have known Kobus for over 20 years. We worked together for 18 years. He is a passionate teacher and very patient with his students. He is innovative in his teaching style. I highly recommend Kobus as a tutor.
Kobus is my Sepedi teacher. He is an exciting teacher, that explains everything with good examples and associations, so it makes remembering the work easier. He has lots of patience and would spend time revising the work if needed. There is good interaction between him and the learners. The quality of his lessons is of the highest standards. He makes learning fun! I would recommend him to anyone who wants to learn Sepedi!
