Maths & Science Tutoring in Gqeberha

BSc-qualified, bilingual tutoring for Grades 8–12 and first-year university — in-person across PE or online anywhere in South Africa.

A Tutor Who Knows Gqeberha

I'm Franco Jonker, a BSc-qualified maths and science tutor based in Gqeberha (Port Elizabeth), Eastern Cape. I work with students from Grade 8 through to first-year university level, and I teach in both English and Afrikaans — whichever helps you understand the work better.

Whether you're following the CAPS curriculum at a government school or the IEB programme at an independent school, I know the content, the mark allocation, and the exam technique that gets results. Sessions are one-on-one: no group classes, no distractions, just focused work on exactly what you need.

I offer in-person sessions across the greater Port Elizabeth area — from Summerstrand to Uitenhage — and online sessions via Google Meet for students anywhere in the country.

Why Choose a Gqeberha Tutor?

There are generic tutoring platforms, and there is someone who understands your specific school system, your language, and your community. Here's what makes a local tutor different.

Knows the SA Curriculum

I teach strictly to CAPS and IEB — the same syllabi your school uses. No time is wasted on content that won't appear in your exams.

Bilingual: English & Afrikaans

Many Gqeberha students are more comfortable working through maths problems in Afrikaans. I'm fully fluent and switch languages mid-session if that helps.

Local Context, Local Examples

I understand the schools, the exam boards, and the specific challenges facing Eastern Cape students — from resource constraints to term timing.

In-Person or Online — Your Choice

Face-to-face sessions across the greater PE area, or online via Google Meet. Same quality, same tutor, whichever suits your schedule.
