Nelly Ramaema
Founder & Director, Study Connect
I am a dynamic entrepreneur, innovator, and mother, driven by a passion for business, education, technology, and creating opportunities for others.
My journey began with a Bachelor’s Degree in Media & Communication from the University of the Free State, where I majored in Marketing and Journalism.
My professional experience is diverse—from coordinating events to completing an internship with the Department of Education—and each chapter has been a building block for the administrative and operational skills I apply today.
“Finding the right tutor should be as easy as requesting a ride.”
Our team and purpose
Connect. Learn. Succeed.
Study Connect brings together learners, parents, tutors and schools through a modern matching platform. We connect academic needs with available support based on subject, grade, location, learning format and time.
Our goal is not to replace teachers—it is to make additional explanation, practice, intervention and confidence easier to access.
Personal
Match support to the learner’s specific needs.
Nationwide
Serve learners and schools across South Africa.
Measurable
Focus on learner progress, not only tutoring hours.
