Hi, I'm Carl. I'm a high school math teacher in a state school, teaching all levels from Year 7 up to Specialist Maths. I am currently a subject coordinator for Specialist Maths.

I have been a math tutor in Brisbane for many years. I would say my specialty is that I really focus on helping my students develop an intuitive understanding of the concepts they are learning. Wherever possible I try to use hands-on (and dare I say fun) activities - e.g. learning trig? Let's get the trundle wheel and clinometer out and determine some missing heights/angles. Planar graphs? Let's get a cork board, some elastic and some drawing pins. Time zones? Let's get a globe and a flashlight. Combinatorics? Pick a card from this deck.

I'm just as proud to help the Year 8 student who failed math all year get back up to a C, as I am the Year 11 Methods student get a 20/20 on their PSMT.
