Helen has over 30 years’ experience in secondary and tertiary education.

Her shows are broadcast into Africa and she has learners and teachers as far afield as Nigeria and Ghana making use of her work. Helen has also authored and co-authored numerous life sciences and natural sciences textbooks and has won awards for teaching and promoting education in Gauteng.

She has developed many distance/self-directed courses in both the sciences and creative arts for learners as well as adults. Helen is committed to the upliftment of learners who need an excellent academic foundation as well as a nurturing environment to complete their studies.
