About René
I am Ms René, I am a CAT teacher with many years experience in the CAT class. I help learners break down exam content, understand what examiners really want, and walk into your CAT Practicals feeling prepared — not panicked.
Most CAT anxiety comes from the practical component — MS Excel formulas that don’t work, MS Access relationships that feel confusing, and HTML that seems unfamiliar.
My sessions are structured but relaxed and focused on real exam questions. With these basic strategies learners see steady improvement.
I specialise in slowing things down, explaining the “why”, and helping learners practise until tasks feel predictable and manageable.
I can also provide these lessons in Afrikaans for RTT (Rekenaartoepassingstegnologie).
