At Otahuhu College, we've crafted memorable lessons that spark passion in both students and teachers. Drawing from effective teaching strategies, we share three standout lessons: "Thrift Shop," "Vitruvian Homer," and "Calculus and the Zombie Apocalypse." These engaging topics not only challenge students but also revitalize their interest in math. As the Head of Faculty for Mathematics with 27 years of teaching experience, I aim to inspire a love for learning while overcoming challenges in our diverse environment. Let's make math a fun and integral part of our students' lives!
