Finally, EMT provides homework assignments that consolidate what has been learned in the session

We have a straight forward but unique system that concentrates on teaching maths concepts that are accessible and free from off-putting jargon. Sessions are conducted in a warm and psychologically supportive atmosphere that puts the student at ease. All sessions are conducted in small groups or one to one.We don’t use computers or calculators in our maths tutoring sessions as these tools create dependency and rob the student’s mind of its ability to face and solve mathematical problems. Instead, we help learners build a secure foundation in maths. We teach all maths subjects in the NZ curriculum from years 1 to 13. We can also tailor maths tuition to meet the requirements of international, tertiary or professional entrance exams.
The first session is a One on One session that’s designed to find out about the student’s needs.

We often hear from parents that they have learnt as much during this single hour as they learned during their own college or university experience!

No. This Assessment session is $55 incl. GST and includes a 100% money back guarantee of satisfaction. In other words, if the parent or student does not find the session useful and does not wish to proceed with EMT, then EMT will not charge a cent. So far, we have never had anyone decide to take up this guarantee so were confident our system works. Students and parent learn a lot in the Assessment session. We suggest parents sit beside the student while the session is in progress in order to observe EMT's unique style of teaching. Once we have completed the Assessment session, we will have an accurate idea of the students level of understanding and any deficits in maths. We can then teach the appropriate skills and start to fill the gaps.
This depends on the outcome of the assessment session as well as the student's goals. Some students attend once a week, some twice a week, and some come to EMT up three times a week. We can arrange a schedule of One to One or Shared Sessions, depending on what works best for each student.
