EXCELLENCE IN MATHEMATICS IS EXHILARATING
Hi Neighbours,
With the School holidays coming to an end many secondary school students will be entering the NCEA maths curriculum and may find themselves struggling.
I have been teaching Mathematics in Devonport over the last 20 years using plenty of diagrams and emphasising the importance of solid working. A little bit of chess has also been used to successfully improve memory and develop the sequential tactical problem solving skills so critical in maths.
I am able to tutor in your homes around the Devonport area and I’m happy to zoom otherwise.
All my full time students passed their NCEA course requirements in 2023.
Perhaps I could help you discover excellence in mathematics.

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)
.
