Van spelkompetisies tot ‘n meestersgraad in Afrikaans \u2013 met lof \u2013 vir ‘n Idasvallei-leerder…<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tes-Adri Page was in 2010 ‘n “skraal klein meisie” van Idasvallei in Stellenbosch met ‘n voorliefde vir tale, gedigte en skryf. Maar onlangs het sy by die Universiteit Stellenbosch (US) se Desember-gradeplegtigheid haar meestersgraad in Afrikaans ontvang \u2013 met lof!\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Deur die loop van die afgelope 15 jaar is sy deurlopend deur haar ma, Tes-Ri Page, ondersteun en aangemoedig. Terselfdertyd het sy nie gehuiwer om elke geleentheid aan te gryp nie \u2013 soos di\u00e9 wat deur die Woorde Open W\u00earelde-projek (WOW) moontlik gemaak is.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“Ek was 11 jaar oud en in gr.\u20095 in die Laerskool Idasvallei toe ek die eerste keer aan ‘n WOW-spelkompetisie deelgeneem het. Ek het nie geweet wat om te verwag nie. Ek was verbaas toe ek tot die eindronde deurgedring het, maar terselfdertyd het dit my ook baie gelukkig gemaak.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

En sy onthou nog die wenwoord: “Halssnoer”.\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n

WOW is vanaf 2003 ‘n bemagtigingsprojek van die Toyota Stellenbosch Woordfees. Kreatiewe programme gerig op die bevordering van taal, letterkunde en die kunste bemagtig leerders en opvoeders deur hul taalkennis en -vaardighede te slyp. Die Sanlam WOW-spelfees is tans die grootste spelkompetisie in Suid-Afrika en word in al nege provinsies aangebied.\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tes-Adri glo sy het haar liefde vir taal en onderrig by haar ma ge\u00ebrf. “\u2009’n Taalaspek was altyd by alles waaraan ek deelgeneem het, betrokke \u2013 van spelkompetisies tot die skoolkoerant,” vertel sy. “Al hierdie geleenthede om voor mense op te tree, het ook gehelp om my selfvertroue te bou. Vandag word ek gemotiveer wanneer ek studente tutor of vir hulle klasgee \u2013 om die lig in ‘n student se o\u00eb te sien wanneer hulle verstaan, om mense te kan help.”\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Di\u00e9 liefde vir tale en om ander deur middel van taal te bemagtig, blyk ook uit die feit dat South African Sign Language (SASL) een van haar vakke op voorgraadse vlak was.\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Om die pot aan die kook te hou en haar familie te ondersteun, was Tes-Adri die afgelope paar jaar ‘n fasiliterende dosent en tutor vir die Verlengde-kurrikulum-program, waar sy die akademiese-geletterdheid-module hanteer het. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

“Die doel van die module is om studente toe te rus met die nodige vaardighede om akademies te kan skryf, akademiese tekste te verstaan en dit krities te ontleed. Die fokus is op taal en geletterdheid.”\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sy was ook ‘n tutor vir Afrikaanse taalaanleer op tweedejaarsvlak: “Die verwagting is dat die studente reeds in Afrikaans kan kommunikeer. Ek moes hulle help om krities in Afrikaans te kan dink en kommunikeer.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Gedurende die afgelope twee jaar moes sy dikwels gedurende die dag klasgee terwyl sy in die aande aan haar tesis gewerk het.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Vir haar meestersgraad het Tes-Adri die gebruik van prente in die onderrig van Afrikaansvreemdetaalaanleer ondersoek. As tutor het sy agtergekom dat visuele voorstellings en tegnologie as hulpmiddel vir verstaanbaarheid gebruik kan word: “Ek het prente as ‘n brug gebruik sodat die betekenis van die woord of sin in die doeltaal verstaan kon word.\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“Dit was duidelik dat die studente die prente geniet het en dat hulle sodoende die inhoud van die teks beter verstaan het,” verduidelik sy.\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Vir haar ma, Tes-Ri, was haar werk in die dekaansafdeling van die fakulteit natuurwetenskappe by die US sedert 2003 soos ‘n rigsnoer op hul pad.\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“Ek het baie lief vir my werk en my mense geword. Dit het my weer moed in die lewe gegee, omdat hulle my so goed ondersteun. Om ‘n enkelma te wees, is nie speletjies nie \u2013 veral as jy nie meer ouers het op wie jy kan staatmaak nie.”\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Danksy die feit dat permanente werknemers van die US se kinders gratis kan studeer, kon Tes-Ri hierdie en baie ander geleenthede aan haar dogter bied. \n<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sy spog graag oor die feit dat Tes-Adri ook klavier speel en die Royal Schools of Music se gr.-5-eksamen geslaag het.\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“Ek het nie woorde nie. Al die lof en eer gee ek aan my Here wat my die krag en wysheid gegee het om haar groot te maak. Ek is so trots ek kan dit aan die hele w\u00eareld uitbasuin \u2013 dankie God!”\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Vir Tes-Adri is haar akademiese reis nog glad nie agter die rug nie: “Ek het van kleins af gew\u00e9\u00e9t van die universiteit. Ek sou n\u00e1 skool na my ma se werk toe stap en daar sit en wag. Ek het altyd geweet ek sal eendag hier wil studeer.”\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n

En die volgende mikpunt op haar lys? “\u2009’n Werk. In alle erns, ‘n PhD. Ek wil baie graag verder studeer.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
