Hi, I'M FIONA

Fiona Shepherd MA (Dist), PG DipArts (Dist), BSc, Dip Tchng

I am a NZ qualified and experienced teacher of Mathematics and Statistics.


I’ve been teaching for over 30 years in various positions throughout New Zealand.


My Masters' thesis was titled "Mathematics as a Secondary Subject: The Girls' View" where I researched girls' experiences of secondary school mathematics.


This research has informed my teaching practice in that I aim to make the teaching and learning of mathematics fun, creative, collaborative, and relevant.


I aspire to break down any barriers to being successful in mathematics.
