Where students get stuck

The first few weeks

MATHS 102 moves quickly. If your algebra and functions aren't solid early, trigonometry and calculus get much harder.

Calculus

Differentiation and integration are where most students drop marks. We work through them step by step until the methods stick.

Exam wording

MATHS 102 questions can be worded in ways that throw well-prepared students. I'll show you how to work out what's being asked.

What comes next

Your grade decides which papers are open to you next, so it's worth getting help before the test results arrive.

How it works

  1. Free 30-minute intro on Zoom. Bring the topic you're on or a past test and we'll start there.

  2. Sessions when you need them. Weekly, or more often before tests. No minimum, pay as you go.

  3. Practice problems in the style of MATHS 102 tests and exams.

  4. WhatsApp between sessions. I usually reply the same day.

First session free, then $97 an hour. No minimum, pay as you go.

James Kerr

I've been tutoring maths for over 20 years, working one-on-one with students from Year 7 through to university.

I teach NCEA, Cambridge and IB, as well as first- and second-year university maths. Most students come to me for one exam and stay for three years or more. By then I know how they think, where they usually slip up, and what's coming next for them, so we can deal with problems before they show up in a test.

I've also written hundreds of my own worksheets and practice papers. If a student needs another twenty questions on trig the night before a test, I usually have them ready, and they can message me on WhatsApp if they get stuck.

I got an A+ in first-year university maths myself, and I write practice sets that match the style of the actual tests and exams.

Thank you so much for all the help you've given me... I just checked my results for my calculus exam and I couldn't have done it without you. You are a great teacher and I've recommended you to some of my friends as well. Thank you very much for helping me achieve my goals.
