Carina Grobler
Head of the French department at North West UniversityI have come to know Miles as a dedicated, well-organised and soft-spoken French Tutor who communicates well with the teaching team and with students. Miles has shown initiative to encourage student participation in the hybrid sessions and ensures that they are properly prepared for French tutor sessions.

Daniella
StudentWorking with Miles as my Afrikaans teacher has been an absolute joy! He is an amazing tutor — so patient, creative, and incredibly supportive. He has a fantastic way of helping with pronunciation and breaking down difficult words in a way that feels easy. Every session is engaging, and I genuinely look forward to our lessons. I've learned so much from working with him in such a short time, and my confidence in Afrikaans has grown tremendously. I honestly can’t recommend Miles enough!
