Tutoring pure Maths and Science

By:  Onalenna Jantjie

Why did you start this kind of business?

When I arrived in Kuruman I noticed that there was a gap in the market for tutoring pure Maths, Physics, English and geography. So I registered a business and employed people who would facilitate those classes to students struggling with any of those subjects. We tutor Grade 8- grade 12 learners. And we have specifically selected mathematics and science because we know these are the key subjects needed by students who want to find worthwhile careers in the future.

How much do you charge for the classes?
We charge R95 per hour per subject

One would imagine that as a Durbanite you would have opted to start your business in Durban. Why Kuruman?
Kuruman is a small town with limitless opportunities. I identified a gap in the market and decided to grab it

What are some of the challenges you have encountered in your business?
As a small business owner, I have learned that success won’t happen overnight. So patience is vital.

What are your future plans?
I’d like to see my business expanding into the rural areas.

What advice would you offer young aspiring entrepreneurs?
Expose yourself to opportunities. Kuruman has limitless opportunities.

Who is your role model?
My late mother. There was no bridge too far for her

Where are your offices?
58 Main Street Kuruman, Office 104
