NumberWorks'nWords Henderson is a maths and English tutoring centre for children aged 5 to 16, at 226 Lincoln Road. The owners, a couple who both worked as tutors while at university, say each child gets a programme built around their own needs, and the plans follow the school curriculum. The centre covers all levels, from early learners to students preparing for exams or needing extension work.
Sessions are one hour, after school from Monday to Friday, usually starting from 3:30pm. If a child is sick and misses a session, the centre cancels that day and schedules a make-up session in the same term. The centre offers a free assessment in English or maths, and a free trial lesson, so parents can see where their child stands before they commit.
The centre is in the same complex as KFC, across from Pak'nSave on Lincoln Road. Take the stairs between Subway and Animates Pet Store, and look for the centre next to Lumino the Dentist. There is parking for up to two hours in the complex and across the road in the Pak'nSave car park. The centre says it has students from a long list of schools across the Henderson, Massey and Te Atatu area, and that it welcomes students from all schools. It is one of nearly 30 tutoring centres across New Zealand.
