Fred

Professional Profile:

A meticulous and versatile finance and language education professional, I bring over a decade of experience in bookkeeping, accounting, client-facing administration, and online instruction. My core strength lies in combining precision with adaptability—whether I’m reconciling VAT records to trial balance or designing communicative English lessons for international learners.

I’ve successfully implemented financial systems across hospitality, retail, and educational sectors, reducing operational inefficiencies and boosting data accuracy. My work includes managing payroll, preparing financial reports, processing invoices and payments, and supporting year-end audits. I’m fully proficient in Sage/Pastel, Microsoft Excel, PowerPoint, and remote collaboration platforms, with a strong foundation in South African taxation and compliance processes.

Complementing my finance background is a thriving career in online English teaching, where I coach learners in Business English, IELTS preparation, and fluency development through platforms like italki and Queens English. This cross-disciplinary experience has sharpened my communication, patience, and critical thinking skills—equipping me to lead both structured financial operations and dynamic teaching environments.

Driven by purpose and professionalism, I’m committed to continuous improvement and excellence in every role I undertake. No task is too menial, no challenge too complex—I approach both with equal dedication.
