Tutoring Support Available during and after Lockdown – Current Undergraduate Student
Hi neighbours,
Hope you are staying safe and doing well! Coming back into lockdown, it has taken a while to settle into the new online style of working and learning. I am posting here for students who may be interested in online tutoring sessions during this difficult time, as exam times come near…
My name is Edmund Lu and am currently at University of Auckland studying Engineering and Applied Maths in my first year. I am happy to take on tutoring because I appreciate that through tutoring, we can convert good communication with students into a driving force for their effective learning and confidence building, and I enjoy supporting students for successful learning in their curricula.
I have tutored for quite a while with positive feedback and cover the range of Years 9-13 school students in Maths (arithmetic, trigonometry, basic calculus, L3 calculus), or general science. I have studied the IB Diploma Programme in high school, so am also available for IB Maths, Physics, Chemistry and Spanish (basic and intermediate foreign language classes).
If needed can also help with university foundation or first-year level maths (depends on which courses you would like). Rates can be discussed based on your needs and how I could help, and due to lockdown can obvious only operate online, but we can also try in-person after we’re back to L1! 😊
If it sounds right to you, please let me know of your interest via email (edmundl0212@gmail.com) or flip me a text message (0226509265).
Thanks for viewing and let's support each other through lockdown!

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?
The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.
This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
