Young decided scientists willing to take on challenges. I am fresh from varsity and would love the experience to expand my skills and experience.

During my tenure as a laboratory demonstrator at the University of KwaZulu Natal, I played a dual role, guiding students in Biological Sciences and actively contributing to research. Balancing hands-on teaching with research and analysis, I facilitated a dynamic learning environment. This experience enhanced my ability to communicate complex concepts and deepened my understanding of the practical applications in Biological Sciences. My key deliverables were:

Scientific Reporting Writing: I played a key role in the writing of scientific reports, covering a range of research topics.

Laboratory Learning: Facilitating the student learning journey within the laboratory environment, taking great care to align teaching methods with unique learning styles.

Laboratory Housekeeping: Maintaining housekeeping in the laboratory environment, ensuring an environment conducive to research at all times.

As part of my academic journey, I was immersed in the research of identifying volatiles used by Dermestes Maculatus to locate oviposition sites, where I contributed valuable insights to the ever-evolving field of Biological Sciences. My research and analysis methods were:

Research Design

Field Research Techniques

Computational Tools
