I am an experienced secondary Maths teacher and mother of three offering a variety of Maths classes for students in Years 1-12. I also run a numeracy-based playgroup for one and two-year olds at the Plunket Community Hub in South Dunedin.

All students n my Maths classes, l will be thinking outside the box to explore a range of core mathematical skills. They will be drawing, playing games and challenging themselves to feel comfortable using Maths in everyday situations, which will set them up beautifully for mastering more challenging concepts in the future. NCEA-level students will be following set standards, but no doubt we’ll find a bit of time to sneak in some challenging games that keep them engaged and thinking on their feet. All classes will be grouped according to ability level, so we’ll have a chat before I can let you know if I have any appropriate openings.

In my Maths Art classes that are open to students of any age and ability, students will learn that Maths isn’t all about numbers. It’s about the connections between numbers; it’s about exploring shapes and looking for patterns; it’s about drawing with rulers, and compasses and protractors. Maths Art is about starting with a mathematical concept, and then branching out to see how that idea can be displayed visually. It suits both the able mathematician and the reluctant learner by inspiring them to understand maths differently than they have in the past.

The fees for 2025 are $104 per 8-week term, or half that if you have a Community Services Card.

Please get in touch if you have any questions or are interested in enrolling your child.

Nga mihi, Sandra.
