How lessons work

From the first message to steady progress.

1

Tell me about the student

Send the year level, curriculum and the topics that feel hard. A recent test or report helps too.

2

First lesson: find the gaps

We work through problems together so I can see where understanding breaks down, then plan what to cover.

3

Regular lessons

Concepts explained clearly, examples repeated as often as needed, and exam technique built in as assessments approach.

About Alice

A university lecturer who loves teaching teenagers.

Hi, I'm Alice. I've taught mathematics for more than fifteen years, first at university and now one-to-one with secondary school students in Auckland.

I completed my PhD in Mathematics in 2009 and spent the next eight years lecturing in the Applied Mathematics department at Nanjing University of Finance & Economics, where I was nominated as one of the university's most popular teachers in 2014.

Since moving to New Zealand I've tutored at the University of Canterbury and, since 2020, worked with IB, Cambridge and NCEA students across Auckland. My students say they enjoy the lessons, and their results show it.

Maths is easier when you're not afraid to ask "why?"
