Our maths programme caters to school-age children in small groups of between two and four students working at a similar level. Each group has their own tutor. Tutors go over homework, teach new concepts, demonstrate problem solving techniques, and answer questions. Students work methodically through a carefully selected series of workbooks at their own rate, under expert supervision. They are assigned daily homework. Each weekend additional 20-min online demonstrations of key maths techniques are offered. Students watch the session or sessions that suit them best.
Friday, Saturday and Sunday classes are held in Redwood, Tawa.
Lessons Offered
Maths & Music for Preschoolers
Maths AND Music instruction integrated into each 40 minute class.
Preschoolers learn while having fun, led by award-winning teachers. Small classes utilise an astonishingly varied and innovative set of resources.
Students may enrol at the beginning of the term in which they turn four years old, and continue until they start school — allowing at least four terms of instruction.
The course objectives are for preschoolers to learn basic music theory, play a simple tune on violin and piano, and demonstrate confidence in arithmetic and geometry.
Individual Lessons
Our expert teachers provide individual tuition in piano, violin, cello, viola, music theory, composition, and of course mathematics.
Students learn in the manner and at the pace which suits them best, according to tailor-made lesson plans.
One-on-one lessons give teachers the flexibility to provide tuition perfectly tuned to the specific needs and desires of students.
Daily practice is expected.
Support is provided for Trinity College music exams in addition to school maths or music exams.
Maths Programme
Our boutique Maths Programme is designed for school-aged students seeking more structured learning to help them reach their true potential. Each group of between two and four students (at a similar maths level) has their own personalised tutor. Tutors go over homework, explain new concepts, demonstrate problem solving, and answer questions. Students work at their own pace through carefully selected workbooks which are chosen according to need and personal goals, as opposed to age or year group.
One face-to-face class and at least one 20-min Zoom maths demonstration is offered each week. Students are expected to complete daily homework during term time.
The Primary Programme is designed to not only consolidate numeracy skills, but also to embed key concepts and build confidence in word problems. The Secondary Programme is oriented towards the new secondary mathematics curriculum and national examinations.
Chamber Music Coaching
