A Guide to University Applications in 2027

Teachers at Leerkring often ask how to keep learners focused in the last term. Start small. Set one clear goal for each lesson and check it at the end. Short study group sessions after school work well in Kimberley, where many learners travel far. Ten focused minutes beat an hour of tired revision.

Our tutors share marked past papers with school staff each month, so everyone knows where a learner needs help. Call us on 053 555 0327 if your school would like to work with us.

How to build good study habits

Ask learners to study at the same time each day, even if only for thirty minutes. Use a simple timetable on the wall. Our tutors at Leerkring check these timetables every Friday and help learners adjust them when sport or chores get in the way.

Why steady support matters

Marks improve when a learner knows someone is paying attention. A teacher, a tutor and a parent who share notes can spot problems early. Our study group coordinator, Lerato Molefe, sends short progress notes to families every second week.
