NumberWorks'nWords Albany is a maths and English tutoring centre at 28 The Avenue in Albany, on Auckland's North Shore. It is owned by Suzanne, who has taught secondary maths for more than 30 years. The centre works with children aged 5 to 16, from early learners to students preparing for exams or needing extension work.
Each child starts with a free assessment in English, maths or both, which shows where support is needed. Plans follow the school curriculum and are built around the child's goals. Sessions last one hour, usually after school from 3:30pm, Monday to Friday. If a child is sick and misses a session, the centre cancels that session and books a make-up session in the same term.
The centre says it has students from several local schools, including Coatesville, Albany Junior High, Albany Senior High, Kristin, Pinehurst, Greenhithe, Upper Harbour, Dairy Flat, Ridgeview, Oteha Valley and Long Bay College. It is next to a dairy, with a delicatessen and a liquor store nearby.
