Remote, but not without options
A specialist maths tutor is almost impossible to find in the Southern Lakes — but online removes distance from the equation entirely, whichever pathway your child is on.

IGCSE, AS & A Level (9709) — Pure Mathematics, Statistics and Mechanics.

NCEA maths tutoringHow it works
Simple, low-pressure, and built around your child.
Check you're set up
Lessons need a laptop, a tablet and stylus, and a reliable internet connection — so your child can handwrite maths naturally, right alongside me.
Get in touch
Tell me about your child through the Get Started form. Your first lesson is risk-free — if it's not the right fit, there's no charge.
A plan, then weekly lessons
I find their current level and set a plan, then we meet weekly online on an interactive whiteboard — with homework each lesson to lock it in.
Ongoing progress
Lessons run weekly through the term. You stay in the loop on how they're tracking, and we adapt as their confidence grows.

Collaborative learning environment.

Specialist maths help, Southern Lakes-wide
A specialist you can't find locally
A fully qualified NCEA, Cambridge and IB tutor — the kind that simply isn't available in Central Otago — without one having to live down the valley.
Distance is no barrier
Every lesson is online from home on an interactive whiteboard — no matter how remote you are, the teaching is exactly the same.
Genuinely small groups
Group classes are capped at four and matched by level, so nobody is held back or left behind.
Every whiteboard saved
Each lesson is saved to a growing set of revision notes your child can return to before their exams.
Risk-free first lesson
If the first lesson isn't the right fit, it's on me — no charge, no pressure. An easy way to try online.
One tutor, every year
Continuity from Year 9 through to Level 3, A Level or the IB — no starting over each year.

Kenneth Clarkson
My goal isn't just to get your child through the next test — it's to build strong foundations that set them up for the long term. I teach for understanding over memorising, keep lessons calm and encouraging, and tailor each student's path toward wherever they're heading, whether that's NCEA, Cambridge, IB, or beyond.
Sarah J.
I love helping students build genuine confidence with maths — breaking big ideas into clear, manageable steps until they click. I keep lessons supportive, patient, and focused on real understanding.
What families say
“We really appreciate the positive impact Kenneth has had on our son. Michael often tells us how much he enjoys Kenneth's lessons, and they've made a real difference to his confidence and understanding in maths. Thank you, Kenneth, for being such a wonderful teacher.”
