Course in conveyancing

Thokozile Radebe

I just want to let you know that I passed the Conveyancing Oral Exam yesterday. My thanks goes to Gawie and the team, especially to Erinda for believing in me.

I  first learned about the institution in 2019. When I  attended Ethics revision classes at George Ross Hall of the NG Church, I got 60%.

In 2020 during hard lockdown I joined Erinda's classes and that's when I fell in love with conveyancing. Thank you so much for the encouragement and the tips you gave us on 31 May 2022.

Once again thank you Erinda for believing in your students, May God continue to bless you, your family and the whole team.

Kaylean Adimoolum

I have passed my Conveyancing Exam with the Highest Marks in KZN. This was my first attempt, as I only got admitted as an attorney last year. I cannot express my gratitude to Gawie le Roux, I would not have been able to achieve these results without you. Initially, I was not going to write the second paper after I wrote the first paper, I came out of that exam in tears. When it was time to write the second paper, we had the floods in KZN and amongst all odds, I made it to write both papers, with nothing but hope. To Erinda, thank you for your excellent interpretation of the Conveyancing Notes, your lectures, and all the encouragement, for the first 4 weeks into lectures I always woke up with such confidence knowing that my brain was in good hands. I appreciate everything you have done. May God bless you always. The level of skill and care your establishment displays to its students is impeccable, it felt like a family, and I will forever be thankful. To my favourite person, Ilana, thank you for always being so helpful, you have been amazing. You were always there whenever I needed help. All the small gestures and encouragement made the biggest impact on my results. To each and every one of you, believe it or not, you all have played such an important role in helping me achieve these results and I'm so thankful. May God bless each of you. Thank you for being a blessing in my life."

Tahera Gangat

I registered for your conveyancing course in January 2020 and attended the course in February with Erinda, which was of great benefit and which I enjoyed immensely! I received the good news that I passed on my first attempt. Please pass my special thanks onto Erinda – her lectures were dynamic, the notes were user-friendly and the model answers benefitted me tremendously in the exam. Now, more than a year later, I still use your notes on a daily basis in practice.

Shaakira Yacoob

I am absolutely thrilled that I have passed the conveyancing exam on my first attempt. I thoroughly enjoyed the course presented by Erinda and the notes are brilliant. Thank you!

Tsungai Samantha Dube

I want to take this opportunity to thank you so much for the conveyancing course and notes. I attended your course for 4 days and followed your words of advice – and passed my exam on my first attempt as candidate attorney.

Ningi Majoro

I would like to share the good news that I passed the Conveyancing Exam. It was the first time I sat for this exam and I only got the material for the course on the 16th July 2019, which meant that I had only two months to prepare. I considered writing the exam next year in 2020 but then I just thought it won't hurt me if I tried the exam this year, just to get the experience. And then I actually passed! Thank you so much to the whole team for putting the course together, it is a comprehensive course and it surely prepared me for the exam.

Jenna Leigh Brandon

I am absolutely thrilled! I have passed the 2019 Conveyancing exam with a mark of 71.5% on my first attempt. This being the second highest mark in KZN and the third highest mark in South Africa. I cannot believe that I have been able to achieve this. I had never worked in conveyancing before I decided to write the exam however I wanted to extend my knowledge and further my qualifications. I purchased my notes from the Centre for Conveyancing and I sat down and began at the first page. I also attended the Gawie le Roux 4 day revision course in June and would definitely recommend this to any aspiring conveyancers. I made many sacrifices during my 6 months of studying prior to the exam, many late nights, weekends, cancelled plans, stress and headaches and they all paid off. I ended up thoroughly enjoying the conveyancing work and found the intricate details and advanced property registration system in our country very interesting. All I can say is that I am exceptionally proud today. This is proof that you certainly can achieve anything you put your mind to and if you work hard enough, the universe will conspire to help you succeed!

 

Tanya Ford

Just a short thank you to the admin team and Erinda for everything, this online webinar training is wonderful. I have attended a few webinars the past few weeks and you can be very proud of how it is presented. Truly excellent.

Anneline Oliveira

Mr le Roux is an inspirational and efficient lecturer. His notes are so methodical and effective and his examination tips are priceless. Having no practical experience in conveyancing, attending the course only once and with only ONE month of rigorous preparation and study of ONLY Mr le Roux’s notes, I passed the conveyancing exam on my FIRST try. I know that Mr le Roux’s course, notes, exam tips, uplifting support and enthusiasm played a significant role in me achieving this. I suggest Gawie le Roux’s course to anyone who is willing to learn, put in a large amount of effort, time and work hard. I strongly recommend attending the course in person as Mr le Roux’s enthusiasm and love for conveyancing is not only contagious, but his methodology of teaching opens up the mind to the essence of conveyancing and its principles. I urge all attendees to follow Mr le Roux’s recommendation to read the course notes in advance in order to get the full benefits of the course.

Megahn Howard

I attended the conveyancing course and exam workshop. I had no experience in conveyancing but was so determined to write. I heard about everyone’s exam fears and nauseating orals. Upon attending the course, having an open mind and willingness to learn, I wrote both papers and I passed on my first attempt receiving the highest mark in KZN of 70.50%. It is all thanks to Gawie le Roux Institution of Law and of course Erinda Frantzen, who is an amazing and inspiring woman. The manner in which she conducted the seminars were outstanding, brilliant and extremely helpful. I would like to extend my sincere gratitude to Mr. le Roux and his formidable team for compiling these fantastic notes. I would also like to thank your administration team who showed true compassion when assisting me when I experienced some difficulty in obtaining the course material.

Roxanne Adams

I strongly believe in giving credit where credit is due. I am happy to say that I passed my conveyancing exams on the first attempt, and with under just three months of preparation. This course is without a doubt worth every penny. From the comprehensive notes to the guidance of Erinda in preparation for the exam, I would unreservedly recommend this course to anyone looking to write the conveyancing exams, and I myself in future will look to the Gawie le Roux Institute for any further professional education and development. A massive thumbs up and big thanks to the team! 

Maruschka Wolmarans

I passed the Conveyancing exam on my first attempt and GLR played a major role in my success. The notes provided are excellent and highly recommended. I also attended GLR’s online classes presented by Erinda. She explained the notes so well and was very helpful. Thank you so much for your professional service.

Elzahn van der Westhuizen

I wish to share my absolute joy with you! I passed my conveyancing exams!! I just want to thank Erinda for the manner in which she presents a massive body of work and makes it look effortless. Teaching multiple classes for weeks and maintaining the energy all the while being factually correct is definitely no easy task. The manner in which she explains rather difficult concepts is superb and definitely helped for those moments where you look at a high mark allocation and hit a bit of a blank! I also want to thank you and the rest of the team for the manner in which the notes have been compiled and the course facilitated. The material will definitely be an invaluable asset going forward.

Safiyya Saidoo

I am elated to share the wonderful news with all of you at the Gawie le Roux institute that I passed the Conveyancing exams!!! It was my first attempt and with no conveyancing experience I would like to say a very special thank you to ERINDA FRANTZEN. My results are a testament to her amazing lectures and explanations and the comprehensive notes. A few years back I also did the Notary course with her and passed the first time. I would recommend both these courses to all those who want to write the exam.  

Marcel Gerber

I confirm that I passed the two conveyancing examinations in September 2021. It was my first time writing the exams. I started studying 1.5 months before the exam. I used the Gawie le Roux study notes and the recording of the classes presented by Erinda in early 2021 to prepare for the exam. A very big thank you to Erinda and the team for your excellent presentation and study material.

Anonymous, September 2021

I attended the Course for Conveyancing as well as the Exam Preparation Workshop this year (2021) and passed both paper 1 and 2 on my first attempt in the September sitting. This was definitely all due to your amazing course and presentation! I will forever be grateful and will always recommend the Gawie le Roux Institute of Law.

Clarise Daniels

I want to extend my heartfelt thanks to Mr le Roux and the Conveyancing course team as I passed my conveyancing exam. After a few attempts my dream has finally become a reality and that is due to your excellent notes and conveyancing course as I had no conveyancing experience when I began studying the material. All I can say is thank you, thank you and thank you for all your hard work and passion that helped motivate me!

Richard McCafferty

I would like to express my sincere gratitude to your team for your outstanding conveyancing notes. With the assistance of these notes I was able to pass the conveyancing examination at my first attempt.

Koena Nong

Please note that I have passed my notary and conveyancing exam and recently got admitted. Your material assisted me very much.

Alexandru Olah

I would like to express my sincere gratitude for the effort and passion you put in the Conveyancing courses and notes! I passed on my first attempt and managed to obtain 62%! Undoubtedly the amount of work I put in had something to do with my result but I am very confident that your notes and course have played a crucial part in my pass. Your notes and explanations make a fairly complex and extensive subject more approachable and understandable.

Candice Dimitri

I would like to thank the Gawie le Roux Institute of Law for the extensive notes that were provided to me. I passed the conveyancing exam on my first attempt and it would not have been possible without the help and guidance of your team!

Delia Jay

Words cannot express my gratitude to Gawie and everyone at Aktepraktyk for all the brilliant notes you produce and the amazing course and pre-exam workshop. You are so passionate about what you do and without your inspiration I might have given up long ago. I am so thrilled to announce that I finally passed my Conveyancing Exam in KZN in May 2017! My story is not one of first time glory but persistent effort which enabled me to gain this valuable qualification. Your course is the best available and without it, there is no way I would have achieved what seemed an insurmountable task. Thank you, Erinda, from the bottom of my heart for always encouraging me and explaining concepts so clearly. I hope others will persevere and realise that with hard work it is possible to pass.

Nico Geldenhuys

I got my conveyancing exam results last week and, I’m happy to report, I passed on my second attempt! I came close enough the first time around, but back then I was still out-of-depth in respect of mortgage bonds and sectional titles. This time I was much better prepared. Needless to say, I couldn’t have done it without your study notes. However, I also want to thank you sincerely for arranging with the convener of the examiners to address us at the finishing workshop. That talk made a crucial difference to how I approached both my final preparation and my answering of the drafting paper.

Alvine Samuel (Namibia)

I received my conveyancing results after taking the Exam in May 2017. I have attended Erinda’s classes in Durban as well as the exam workshop and it all paid back. I would like to extend my deepest gratitude to Erinda and to the course. Thank you very much for making my dreams a reality.

Jamie Lee Fong

I just wanted to say how grateful I am for having been able to attend your conveyancing course. I managed to pass on my first attempt after slightly more than a month's time to study for the exam. Many thanks for the good work that you do.

Tasneem Areff

I just wanted to thank everyone who was involved in the creation of the conveyancing notes. I have no experience and I passed it the first time. The notes are brilliant!

Jessica Thompson

I attended your conveyancing course with hardly any experience in conveyancing. I wrote the exam for the first time in September and have just received my results and I am beyond thrilled to say that I passed first time! I honestly could not have achieved this without Gawie’s course and extensive well-structured notes. I am forever grateful towards your team and programme and would highly recommend it to anybody who is interested in becoming a conveyancer.

Kirthi Biseswar

I wanted to say a very big thank you for an amazing conveyancing course. Your presenter was amazing and not only has a wealth of knowledge also has the passion and inspiration to teach and impart her knowledge expertly. Thank you very much.

Rantha Sahadew

I passed my conveyancing exam on the first attempt and it would not have been possible had it not been for the comprehensive notes and case studies that were provided to me and the amazing way that it was unpacked during lectures. Thank you for the support I received during my study time. I would certainly recommend this course to anyone interested in the conveyancing profession.

Divorce and family mediation

Megan Oliver

The lecturers were well-informed and have vast experience of Mediation in Family and Divorce which made learning the contents of the course enjoyable through their practical experience and personal takes/knowledge. I enjoyed the fact that all material is perpetually available on a link, the pre-recorded preparation makes the lectures enjoyable as you start the lecture with information and an understanding of the contents in advance. The interactiveness and meeting new people was great despite the sessions being online. The co-ordinators made the virtual attendance seamless and enjoyable. The feedback during the course was received very quickly and I was helped in the areas I did not quite grasp at first. Felt very comfortable overall.

Elmari Richter

I obtained proper skills to facilitate negotiations. It was of great value!! I will apply everything that I have learned on a daily basis!

Kate Paterson

This course obviously allows for an additional qualification but it also teaches you skills that you can use when negotiating and dealing with clients in day to day practice. It also helps to provide clients with an understanding of the mediation process. The effort on the part of the trainers to provide a holistic skills and understanding of huge value.

Nicole Martin

I would just like to say a huge thank you for the amazing course in mediation. The videos that were uploaded were awesome and I must confess that out of pure interest, I did watch a few more than once. The explanations are incredible. I have been doing this work for a while, but sometimes a refresher with things like maintenance calculations and division of assets is really needed.  

To the presenters, Claire and Melindi, thank you for your clear and concise guidance through each topic we covered. You have such a wealth of knowledge. You are exceptionally humble, considering all your achievements and the massive impact you have on lives. Your commitment to your trainees is also admirable. Your voices will really be remembered in my mind whether I am consulting with clients, litigating or mediating. Your energy can really be felt through the PC when you are explaining a concept. The  practical examples you gave us are truly appreciated and I learnt a lot about myself.

Thank you for helping me to understand myself and my clients a bit better. Your patient and calm manner of explaining concepts is what I will remember the most. The work you do, especially with children is incredible and the passion you have is so visible. I looked forward to all your videos and was always very impressed and enlightened.

Thank you both for everything you have taught me in such a short amount of time!  I know it takes time to prepare from your side as well. I am so happy I have gained two mentors who share my passion for family law matters.

Attorneys' admission exam courses

Tshandatshamaanda Sigwadi

I sat for my board exams in March. I only had Ethics left. I purchased the notes and recordings, I managed to obtain 82%, the highest in Polokwane.

Leigh-Anne Kriel

I just wanted to say that I managed to pass all my exams thanks to the incredible classes and thorough notes provided by Gawie le Roux Institute of Law. I am so grateful! Thank you so much to your team, and especially Johan. Honestly, the best feeling ever! Would not have been possible without your team.

Amelia Pillay

Great notes which are easy to follow and understand. The presentation of the course was professional and interactive. Johan [van Stade] was clear and precise. He constantly checked if we were OK and welcomed all questions and answers, even if they were wrong and politely corrected us and explained where we went wrong.

Ryan James

I am obviously living proof that the notes purchased by the Gawie le Roux Institute of Law definitely do make a difference.

Khanyisile Mdluli

This is just a note to say thank you. I registered for the online courses for the preparation for all four papers for the board exams. I attended all the classes and took in as much as I could. I am pleased to inform you that I passed Paper 2, 3 and 4 at the first sitting and I had to sit for an oral exam for Paper 1 which I passed as well.

Keven Whitehead

Thank you so very much for taking the time to review all the past papers, compile notes and go through all of them so that many of us do not have to. You have offered a very professional service that I appreciated the entire way through. I really feel as though the money I paid for the notes was well spent. I will be honest, a lot of us buy into courses like this simply because we are not the best self-studiers and suck terribly at making our own notes and also, we just do not have the time amongst having to work and keep up to date with roles in our law firms. Thanks a million, guys.

Hanna Nortjé

Ek het die klasse vir al vier die vraestelle bygewoon. Komplimente aan julle instansie met die volledigheid van julle notas en opdatering daarvan na elke eksamensessie. Dan wil ek ook vir Johan sê dankie vir die manier waarop hy die kursus aanbied. My agtergrond van Boekhou is, om die minste te sê, beroerd... Ek het dit nie as vak op skool gehad nie, net daarmee te doen gekry vir my LLB by Unisa. Ek het dit op my vierde probeerslag deurgekom, net met 50%. Na die Boekhou prep klasse, dink ek verstaan ek dit vir die eerste keer. Ek sal verseker julle prep klasse vir Aktes en Notariëel ook bywoon sodra ek my toelatingseksamen geslaag het.

Sekgoela Joel

This email serves to express my appreciation for the Attorneys Examination preparation course that you offer. I attended one for Paper 1 in February 2020, as a last resort and after unsuccessfully attempting the examination four times. I got the results and I have passed the examination. The study material offered at the course was very useful, as it was well structured and simplified.

Eunice Ndelitungapo Sakaria

I would really like to thank you very much for the oral preparation session that you offered. I did exceptionally well in my oral examination by just following your guide and advice you gave me. May God bless you and continue to give you the strength to continue to do what you do best and to help people like me to succeed. 

Tshegofatso Jacobs

Thank you to Gawie and the team for having started the lessons. They were beneficial and thanks to him and his guide I managed to pass the Paper 3 with a 70%. I will definitely recommend it to future candidates for the exams.

Vikara Naidoo

I picked up my study notes from PostNet and I'm so impressed with not only the content and format but also with the efficiency in processing my order. The notes are so user-friendly and make the board exams a little less scary because I have such a great start to my preparation. Many thanks for a super easy and efficient process!

Anonymous, June 2021

I just wanted thank all you guys as I have managed to pass my attorneys' admission exams. The recordings were a tremendous help.

Ronel Janse van Rensburg

First of all, I’d like to comment on Johan’s teaching style. I have really enjoyed his teaching. He has made a lot of work, much more bearable. He focuses on what is important to pass the exams, and does not get carried away by all the unnecessary detailed information which makes the study material unnecessarily bulky. I like that he has added a bit of humor in his teaching and that he gives examples. What I like the most, is that he starts his lectures by building a foundation, he does not just jump in and start doing questions. This is so important and has helped me a lot. I will definitely enroll for his conveyancing classes when the time comes. Thank you for the course and the notes. I have really enjoyed the experience and will definitely be recommending you to others! 

Soanne Ferreira

I would just like to let you know that I have passed all four of my admission exams on the first try, thanks to your notes. Special thanks to Johan, the lectures and notes are fantastic. I will recommend it to anyone! 

Drienie Roodt

Dit was die eerste keer wat ek board exams geskryf het en ek het al vier vraestelle op een slag geskryf - en deurgekom! Mense het vir my gelag en gese ek is mal. Ek het hard geleer en julle klasse bygewoon. Danksy julle en Mnr van Stade se klasse, kan ek met trots se dat ek al 4 vraestelle geslaag het. Dit was senutergend, maar ek is julle ewig dankbaar. Julle is werklik awesome en ek weet nie hoe anders ek dit sou gemaak het as dit nie was vir Johan nie. Hy het die nodige tyd ingewerk en seker gemaak almal wat sukkel is gehelp en selfversekerd. Ek gaan beslis julle besonderhede opgee vir al my ander student-kollegas. You guys rock!

Course in notarial practice

Elsa Kruger-Willemse

This was my first attempt at the Notarial exam and being a mother and running my own practice it is not always easy to find time to just study. I only used the Gawie le Roux Notes and I attended the online course presented by Erinda and I also attended the pre-exam final preparation.

I passed with a very good mark. I got 81% and there is no doubt in my mind that I would not have been able to do so without the Gawie le Roux dynamic team. Ilana thank you for your patience and for always helping me whenever I pressed on your button.

Anri Opperman

I would just like to thank all of you for the quality of the notarial course. I only had a very limited amount of time to study for the exam, and still passed. Please keep up the amazing work.

Yolanda Schoultz

Ek wil julle graag hiermee laat weet ek het my Notaris eksamen geslaag, die eerste probeerslag met ‘n 71%. (dit is die vyfste hoogste punt in die land).

Miljoene dankies aan jou en die die Gawie le Roux span wat met soveel professionaliteit hierdie kursus vir ons aangebeid het en geadministreer het.

Sal jy omgee om asseblief aan Erinda ook my miljoene dankies te stuur. Sonder haar “resepte” en passie om die werk en die eksamen aan te pak sou dit verseker ‘n moeilike taak gewees het en sou ek ook nie 71% kon behaal nie.

Uit my my hart uit DANKIE DANKIE DANKIE.

Anonymous, April 2021

I wrote the recent notarial exam and would have honestly been lost had it not been for GLR’s excellent notes!!!

Lemeez Chilwan

A big "thank you" to the whole team for all your assistance. I thoroughly enjoyed the course - Erinda is brilliant! The notes are super and provide an invaluable understanding of notarial practice. The notes are concise and very user friendly. I’m thoroughly enjoying it! I will recommend the Institute to my colleagues in the legal profession.

Sonica Wilken

I just wanted to thank you for the best possible preparation material and classes for the Notary exam. Your passion for teaching shows and kept me motivated throughout this journey. I have passed the exam and it would not have been possible without your fabulous team. I am truly grateful for your training and guidance, especially since I am practising in intellectual property law and had to start from ground zero. I am soooo thankful and appreciative to your entire team! It is so refreshing dealing with a legal training institute that doesn’t require constant follow-up calls and emails. The process was so effortless. Thank you for your amazing service and I sincerely appreciate all of your guidance and assistance.

Thandi January

Thank you to GLR, in particular to Erinda for the classes and for answering my queries. I passed my notary exam at first attempt with 78.5% in Gauteng. The notes were easy to follow and the examples are exceptional. Oh yes, I worked hard, but I had a good background afforded by the self explanatory notes. I also want to thank the admin personnel for all your patience, assistance and most of all for listening when I needed help. I am more than chuffed with myself that I qualified as Conveyancer and a Notary within six months of each other.

Jessica Osmond

I just wanted to let you know that I passed my notaries exam first time. Even though I felt that I had not had much time to prepare considering working commitments, I felt that it was as a result of the notes provided by your firm and the wonderful lectures by Erinda which equipped me sufficiently to pass.

Leigh-Anne Dwyer

I just wanted to say thank you from the bottom of my heart. I took on the enormous task of writing both Conveyancing and Notaries in April 2021 (after only starting to study for both in Feb. 2021). I received my results and passed both. I gave it my all but (other than through God's grace) I could not have done it without your teachings. I registered for the recordings. I also registered for another institution's course and all I can say is - I wouldn't have been here today if I didn't do your classes. A friend told me about you guys and my husband and I took a loan for me to be able to do your course. And to say it was worth it doesn't even begin to describe it! Your passion for the work is so clear and infectious. You are one of the best lecturers I have come across in all my years of study. Thank you for helping me achieve this goal. I am so grateful. 

Johann Engelbrecht

I passed the Notaries Exam - in fact, as no 1 for KZN. Erinda's course and exam notes were really excellent and without same I would never have passed the exam.

Delia‎ Jay

Please convey my thanks to everyone at Aktepraktyk - I just heard that I passed my notaries exam on my first attempt and I am over the moon! I registered for the self-study course and the notes were brilliant - the concepts are so clearly explained and they covered everything thoroughly.‎ Please tell Erinda Frantzen what a great job she is doing.

Natasha Fletcher

I attended your notarial practice and conveyancing courses respectively this year and want to thank you for your excellent courses and notes as I passed both the notarial practice exam and conveyancing exam first time. I have and am recommending your courses to my colleagues who want to write these exams. Thank you for what you have done to help further my career.

C. van Heerden

I attended the Notary course. As a candidate attorney who had no previous experience in any form of drafting, your notes and classes helped me immensely to prepare for this examination. I passed the Notary Examination on my first attempt. I would like to thank you for your excellent notes and explanation of the various topics. I will recommend this course to anyone who wants to be a Notary public.

Samantha Margolis

I just wanted to write to thank all of you at the Gawie le Roux Institute of Law for the notes and courses in respect of conveyancing and notarial practice. I did both courses earlier this year, wrote both exams and passed both first time. I would definitely recommend the notes and courses to colleagues in the future.

Eleftheria Tzircalle

I just wanted to say that the Notarial course held today was by far the best legal crash course I have been on. Thank you!!

Yolanda Matwa

I just want to thank Erinda Frantzen for the Notary lectures. I obtained 74.5% for the Notary exam. I work for the government and have no practical experience of Notary. I solely relied on your notes and the lectures. Thank you so much.

Shannon Kirsten Stowell

I attended your Notarial Practice course and I passed the exam with 81.7%! I am definitely a very relieved and happy customer. In addition, my father who is also a practising conveyancer, received an email from one of the examiners which read as follows: "I understand that the candidate who goes by the name of S.K. Stowell and who wrote the recent notarial exam is your daughter? If so, please convey my heartiest congratulations to her on what was quite the most exceptional script I have ever marked. I did not, of course, know whose script it was at the time, but I have never before seen anything quite of that standard. I do recall marking my particular question and thinking that here was an exceptional answer paper! So exceptional that I wonder where she lost the 18 marks!!" Thank you very much for the comprehensive notes and the wonderful course. The hard work definitely paid off for me.

Genevieve Candice Munien

I attended the Notary course and I am happy to report that I passed the exam first time. Please send my thanks and appreciation to Erinda for her awesome dynamic lectures and notes.

Angela Allnutt

I have obtained the notarial update and have used the updates as a source of inspiration for studying towards the notary examination. This assisted me with exposure to the latest legislation and practice guidelines whilst attending to conveyancing when being employed as an attorney in the Eastern Cape. I have worked as an attorney in various facets of law and passed the notarial examination when my work commitments in practice allowed me to do so. I wish to thank you for your endless support and fulfillment!

Notarial exam workshop

Hildah (Rofhiwa) Muthambi

Just letting you know that I have made it on both exams. Thank you so much for all your efforts. especially the last-minute Notarial workshop recording that I purchased. That was really helpful.

Wendy de Bruyn

Just wanted to let you guys know I passed the Notary Exam on my first sitting. I only attended the Examination Workshop as a refresher as I did the Course in Notarial Practice a while ago however never went to write due to work commitments. Thank you to all whom form part of the team, you guys are truly amazing.

The lawyer of the future: how to remain relevant

Sharon West

Extremely informative. Anri was well-spoken and engaging. All practitioners should partake in this webinar. Highly recommended.

FLISP - a housing subsidy for first-time homebuyers

Ronel Crouse

Very informative and made use of very good practical examples.

Hesmarie Swart

Excellent - I knew nothing about FLISP and will be making sure I apply this in practice.

Jenny Pienaar

This was very informative with a lot of detail to assist me with the process and the do's and don'ts to assist first-time buyers in obtaining a FLISP subsidy.

Legal communication skills

Simon Matemba

Very informative and will definitely improve my writing skills.

Tedré van Wyk

A very nice refresher for the use of the language and also learned a new thing or two.

Property Practitioners Act

Thinus Potgieter

Well structured and presented, very informative.

Nikki Malan

It was well put together, highlighting the important aspects I was looking for - worth it!

Conveyancing for secretaries (paralegals)

Simoné Visagie

Extremely informative and well-constructed! Melissa did an excellent job of presenting/training this course. The notes were well constructed and covered all aspects for conventional conveyancing, from beginning to registration of a deed of transfer. All questions participants/students possibly could have were answered and Melissa made sure all of us understood the work. Although it was a lot of work to cover in two days (theory), the case studies and examples in the notes made it less daunting. Overall, an exceptional training experience!

Michelle Tracy Ramcharan

Very impressed with course content and co-ordinators. Melissa gives so much information and explains it all so clearly, she also answers questions simply when we don’t understand.

Tanya van den Berg

The course exceeded my expectations. Gawie le Roux's manuals are very in detail and interesting. After attending the course, I feel more comfortable in the office.

Lesego Mamogale

At the conveyancing course for secretaries I learned a lot about the regulations and procedures to follow when dealing with clients, drafting of documents, signing, lodging, the deeds office and how I must carry myself to make it in the business. The course helped me understand that I must always be effective in my work, work harder in everything I do and excel at it.

Andrea Meyer

I would just like to give some feedback on attending the secretaries' course with Melissa as our presenter. Superb is the only word I can think of. It takes a great presenter to make you understand so much in such a short period of time. This is definitely a great asset to my career and I am so happy that I went with Gawie le Roux Institute. I would definitely recommend this conveyancing course to anyone who wants to further their knowledge and expertise in this industry.

Tarsha Povall

I would just like to send a testimonial regarding the practical conveyancing course that I attended with Melissa. I have been working in a conveyancing department for about a year now and I am amazed at how much I actually learnt. There is so much that I didn’t know and was not taught. After the first day I went home and told my husband that I was so extremely excited to go back to the course the following day as it was so interesting and I learnt so much. Even the admitted conveyancer that was present with us learnt so much that she did not know.

It is sad that the course is not attended by more people or even candidate attorneys in the department and I think it is vital for the field and it should be a compulsory course. It is scary how much one can forget or not even know when practising for years. It was an eye opener and I thoroughly enjoyed every minute of each day. Thank you for this successful class. Even if there was only 4 of us ladies that attended it, I can truly say that it was magical for me. I wish more people knew the value of the course. I will 100% spread the word.

Mandi Swanepoel

A colleague and I recently attended your Conveyancing typist course and would just like to say how much we enjoyed the course and how enlightening it was. Melissa has such a passion for what she does making her such an outstanding lecturer.

Rita Steyn

My daughter and I attended the Basic Diploma course which was given by Melissa. Thank you for this opportunity, we both enjoyed it very much. I have been on other courses, but I must admit, this was the best one so far. The explanations and examples given were so informative. I would recommend anyone to do this course. Please congratulate everyone, especially Melissa, on the awesome work done.

Kursus in aktepraktyk

Marilie Boshoff

Ek wou net baie dankie gesê het vir julle produkte. Ek kon nie die klasse bywoon nie maar het die "recordings" gekoop en ek het die eerste keer geslaag te danke aan julle. BAIE DANKIE! Julle sal altyd my eerste keuse wees!

Annemarie Steenekamp

Ek het my Aktes eksamen van September 2019 die eerste keer geslaag danksy julle fantastiese kursus. Dit verg harde werk, maar met julle kursus en Erinda se ongelooflike aanbieding was dit verseker al die bloed, sweet en trane werd!

Albert Coetzee

Ek het in Mei 2019 besluit om julle notas te koop en te begin studeer met die absolute minimum praktiese ervaring in aktes. Ek het Julie 2019 julle kursus bygewoon wat aangebied was deur Erinda Frantzen. Ek het beide die eksamens op 11 September 2019 geskryf en ek kan net met dankbaarheid sê dat ek hierdie eksamens die eerste keer geslaag het. Die voorbereiding en ure se swot moet steeds gedoen word maar sonder julle notas en kursus sou hierdie uitslag verseker nie moontlik gewees het nie. Ek wil baie dankie sê aan Erinda vir haar puik aanbieding van die kursus en haar ongelooflike passie wat sy het vir die aktes.

Marina Murris

Ek het die uitslae van my Aktebesorgers-eksamen ontvang (Oktober 2021) en geslaag met vlieënde vaandels, met my eerste probeerslag. Boonop het ek laat eers besluit om vir die eksamens in te skryf en het ek eers die tweede week van Julie begin met my selfstudie. Ek skryf my goeie resultate toe aan die uitstekende studie-materiaal. Ek wil hierdie geleentheid gebruik om julle te bedank vir die studie-materiaal wat ek ontvang het en uitsluitlik gebruik het vir my eksamenvoorbereiding. Dit het al die verskil gemaak. Die studie-materiaal staan nou langs my lessenaar en gebruik ons nou ook die voorbeelde vir die opstel van ons aktes. Nou kan ons ook die studie-materiaal van die vorige eeu uitgooi, wat ongelukkig nie meer volledig was nie en met wetswysigings ook nie meer volledig nie. Ons sal deurentyd ons materiaal op datum wil bring met julle opdaterings.

Yolande Schoültz

Ek wil van hierdie geleentheid gebruik maak om te sê baie baie dankie vir die Gawie le Roux-span, ek het my akte-eksamen geslaag en word 23 November 2021 toegelaat as ‘n Aktevervaardiger. Ek sou dit nie kon doen sonder julle uitsonderlike kursus en voorbereiding nie. Baie dankie vir die ongelooflike professionele manier waarop julle hierdie kursus behartig. Ek het nog nie so iets in my lewe teëgekom nie. Dankie vir al die moeite en tyd wat elkeen van julle in hierdie kursus insit.

Estelle Gerber

Ek wil u as ‘n firma hartlik bedank vir die hulp ten opsigte van my eksamenvoorbereiding. Ek het my eksamen geslaag en ek weet ek sou dit nie kon gedoen het sonder die fantastiese hulp nie.

Susandra van Wyk

Ek het sopas via sms verneem dat ek my Aktes deur is. Ek wil vreeslik graag vir Erinda bedank. Ek sou dit net eenvoudig nooit gemaak het as dit nie vir haar puik klasgee en notas was nie. Ek het ‘blank’ geslaan met my eerste vraestel maar haar wenke, het my laat “herstel” en ek kon toe die vrae beantwoord.

Cathrin Nel

Ek het die kursus in Bloemfontein (Julie 2017) bygewoon, nou in September vir die eerste keer gaan skryf en geslaag! Julle lewer ‘n fantastiese diens en produk, vanaf administratiewe reëlings, studiemateriaal, aanbieding en lokaalkeuse! Baie dankie.

Wilhelm Smith

Ek het die eksamen vir die tweede keer op 6 September 2017 geskryf. Ek het optimisties gevoel na ek geskryf het en gereken dat die vraestel billik was. Ek het uitgevind dat ek suksesvol was met ‘n punt van 59%. Ek dank u vir die massiewe rol wat u in my uitslag gespeel het met die onverbeterlike aanbieding van die notas en ook die kort voor eksamen kursus. Ek is ook dankbaar vir die notas, wat nie die werk maklik maak nie, maar dit op die mees sinvolle en bruikbare wyse denkbaar voorstel. Ek is baie gelukkig.

Aktekursus vir sekretaresses (paralegals)

Beulha de Haas

Ek het die kursusse regtig baie geniet en BAIE geleer! Dit is vreeslik lekker om met sulke vriendelike, behulpsame mense soos Gawie le Roux se personeel te werk!

Chamelle Jansen

Ek en my twee kollegas het die basiese diploma kursus bygewoon. Dit was vir ons baie interessant en lekker. Ons wil net hiermee vir julle sê dat dit baie goeie notas is. Ons kon nie vir beter gevra het nie. Die dame, Melissa Smit, wat die klas aangebied het was ook ongelooflik goed, vriendelik en geduldig met ons. Die gevallestudie is baie oulik. Julle het baie moeite gedoen om ons te leer hoe om ‘n lêer oop te maak met al die voorbeelde. Dit gaan definitief ons werk vorentoe baie makliker maak.

Nolene Huysen

Ek wil net vir julle terugvoer gee van die kursus wat ek laas week bygewoon het. Dit was awesome, ek het so baie geleer. En Melissa is die beste persoon vir dit, sy was great. Dit was soveel meer as wat ek verwag het. Melissa, baie dankie dat jy sulke goeie klasse aangebied het. Ek dink nie iemand anders kon dit beter gedoen het nie.

Conveyancing exam workshop

Anonymous, March 2021

I am so grateful that I could attend the conveyancing workshop. Erinda is such an inspiration and I definitely needed the course to set a more solid foundation for me to work on. 

 

Tsakani Sithole

I attended your training for conveyancing during 2017. Each time before going for exams I would attend the 1-day revision workshop. On the September 2019 exam I qualified for an oral and during my oral I was asked if I attended classes lectured by Erinda. I said yes and one the panelists told me that he could hear Erinda talking in my answers. Thank you very much, I passed my oral!

Jade Mc Iver

Passing the exam has advanced me in my career where I never thought I would ever be after failing so many times. I can only say a huge thanks to your team for the dedication and passion they put into the notes and lectures that actually got me to pass the exam. Erinda gave me such amazing tips and advice on how to pass the exam and your notes are exceptional. I find your course to be excellent and truly, if you just study the notes, do examples and answer the exam questions you are sure to pass.

Raeesa Ahmed

I attended the conveyancing one-day workshop you presented before the examination and I just wish to extend my appreciation for your time and consideration in conducting the classes. I would also like to thank you for your kind words of encouragement to the attendees. I have passed the exam with God's help and I can say with certainty that I would not have managed it without Aktepraktyk's notes and the workshop you presented. I had noticed that even after the workshop had ended (not to mention during the breaks), that you had sat with students for at least half an hour more assisting with questions and concerns - this being over and above your willingness to repeat a section or explain further during the class. I found this to be extraordinary, displaying how you clearly care to go that extra mile even though you don't have to. May God continue to bless you with knowledge in this field and the strength to pass it on. Thank you for being an inspiration.

Nabeela Suliman

I attended the Exam Workshop held in Northcliff for the preparation of the Conveyancing Exam September 2017. I am delighted to inform Ms. Frantzen that I received my results yesterday and I passed my exam on the first attempt. I can truly say that the self-study notes and the exam workshop played such a vital role and I could not have written the exam without it. Questions that were discussed in the workshop (especially that extending clause question) was repeated in the exam! Erinda can rejoice at what a brilliant and amazing lecturer she is!

Wendy Cook

I passed my Conveyancing exam! Thank you to Erinda and everyone – especially Erinda for her informative exam prep class! I couldn’t have done it without all of you. I was really feeling quite despondent and after that exam prep class I knew I had a fighting chance and came back home and just studied even harder and well, there you go, the results speak for themselves.

Praktiese aktes vir prokureurs

Taillefer Steyn

Ek wil graag baie dankie sê and Michelle, Alouise, Erinda en Melissa. Baie dankie vir al julle kursusse wat ek bygewoon het, dit is regtig die moeite werd en ek sal dit vir enige iemand aanbeveel wat ernstig is om verder te studeer.

Clinton Ras

Ek wil graag die Gawie le Roux Regsinstituut en vir Melissa bedank vir die uitstekende 3-dag kursus die afgelope week. Ek is toegelaat as Aktebesorger maar het geen praktiese ondervinding in Aktes nie. Die kursus is uitstekend vir enige persoon wat nie ondervinding of min ondervinding in Aktes het. Ek sal die kursus vir enige iemand aanbeveel. Baie dankie vir julle puik diens. 

Practical conveyancing for attorneys

Marianne Friend

As a new attorney with no experience in conveyancing I have learned that there is a vast amount of things that is not covered on the academic side. I understand conveyancing so much better now.

Nabeela Suliman

I thoroughly enjoyed the practical conveyancing course. I was informed of the simplest procedures which I initially found daunting, like lodging documents in the deeds office. Questions that were simple and which I was afraid to ask were answered and we went into detail with the entire transfer process.

Vera Reynolds

I attended the practical course for conveyancing and would recommend it to all conveyancers, whether newly admitted or seasoned in practice. Melissa made the theory fun and the dots were certainly connected with the practical side of conveyancing – highly recommended!

Yolande Schoültz

Ek wil graag ‘n kompliment van waardering rig aan Melissa vir haar absolute hoë standaard opleiding, en die deeglikheid waarmee sy haar klas aangebied het. Haar kennis en passie vir aktes is iets om na te streef, en ek kan defnitief opkyk na haar as ‘n rolmodel.

Roxanne Adams

Once again this course has (as all other courses that I have attended with the Institute) pleasantly exceeded my expectations. The notes are comprehensive, and easily understandable, with useful 'nitty gritty' practical notes that you would never learn from studying the theory alone. The presentation was engaging and insightful, and Melissa was able to clearly answer all my questions. I would, without reservation, recommend this course. In comparison, with all other training institutions which I have attended, the Gawie le Roux Institute of Law is definitely several notches above the rest, and well worth every penny.

Marietha Fourie

Thank you so much for the great experience, insightful discussions and excellent information and tips received on the Practical Conveyancing for Attorneys Course! Your courses have never failed to exceed my expectations. 

Themba Mohlamonyane

Thank you for the excellent presentation by Melissa. I found the course very enlightening and I will definitely attend more courses offered by the Gawie le Roux Institute.

Kursus in notariële praktyk

Roxaan Diesel

Wil net baie dankie sê vir julle puik kursus ek sal dit vir enigiemand aanbeveel! Ek is baie trots op my punt, ek het 86% gekry, een van die hoogste punte in Gauteng - alles te danke aan Erinda en julle puik span! Julle lewer 'n baie professionele diens en die klasse was baie insiggewend.

Dione Horn

Ek was by die Notariële Kurses wat julle aangebied het met die doel op die eksamen wat later die jaar sou plaasvind. Ek het  een oggend vroeg 'n sms gekry wat lui "Dear D Horn.... Results for Not Exam... Pass..." Ek was in ekstase! Ek wil net vir Erinda dankie sê vir die manier hoe jy jou kurses aanbied, die stories wat jy vertel het waarin jy die teorie en drafting daarin deurtrek. Dit het my toegelaat en gehelp om sekere stukke maklik(er) te draft en sekere teorie het ek onthou deur net assosiasies met jou stories te maak. Nou kan ek ook Notary Public agter my naam sit.

Nico Geldenhuys

Ek weet jul span geniet en waardeer altyd positiewe terugvoer op die kursusse, so ek wil julle graag in kennis stel dat ek my notariële eksamen met die eerste probeerslag geslaag het! Danksy jul studiemateriaal en kursusse is ek nou ‘n trotse, gekwalifiseerde aktevervaardiger én notaris.

Legal practice and civil procedure for legal secretaries (paralegals)

Cleone Sham

Thank you for a course that is easy to read and understand with good examples. A special thanks to the lecturer for his professional approach and friendly teaching mannerism.

Werkswinkel vir die akteseksamen

Michelle Franken

Baie dankie vir die wonderlike kursus in aktebesorging. Dit was die eerste keer wat ek die eksamens gaan skryf het. Ek het 68% vir beide Vraestel 1 en 2 gekry, en dit sonder 'n dag se ondervinding in aktes. Dit was alles te danke aan Gawie le Roux se notas en die manier wat Erinda die kursus en die werkswinkel aangebied het. Ek gaan beslis die notariële kursus ook deur julle doen. Weereens baie dankie!

Kay Steenkamp

Ek het my Aktebesorger Eksamen afgelê en was suksesvol om dit die eerste keer te kon slaag, alles danksy u firma. Ek het eers in Maart besluit om in te skryf vir die Akte eksamen en was dus ongelukkig te laat om die week-kursus by te woon. Die notas en die eendag-kursus wat Erinda Frantzen aangebied het was meer as voldoende om my deur die eksamen te help. Die notas is baie goed en duidelik-verstaanbaar uiteengesit en Erinda het ‘n aansteeklike passie vir haar werk en dit het op my afgesmeer. Dae na die kursus kon ek haar logiese verduideliking en aanbieding van die vrae nog duidelik oproep en het haar geesdrif my deurgedra as ek met tye moedeloos was oor die volume werk. Sonder julle sou ek dit in alle eerlikheid nooit kon maak nie.

Fransmari Engelbrecht

Baie dankie vir julle briljante notas en vir Erinda. Ek sou dit nooit sonder julle kon doen nie.

Shalene Schreuder

Ek het deurgekom met jul notas. Ek het net 3 maande studeer, maar het elke vrye oomblik daarvan studeer. Baie dankie vir jul fantastiese notas. Ek het 6de gekom in die eksamen van die Kaapse Wetsgenootskap, net 12 mense het deurgekom. Die hoogste punt was 60%, so die standaard is erg hoog. Dankie vir al jul fantastiese notas. Ek is vandag definitief bemagtig en nou kan ek toegelaat word as aktebesorger.
