Thank you for the feedback, it is wonderful to see his confidence and enthusiasm growing! As well as his scores improving. He was really proud, so we made a fuss and took him out for a fancy milkshake as a reward. Thanks for helping him so much!
Proud Mum - Browns Bay School
Both my son and daughter are attending Thinking Caps classes at Browns Bay School. They enjoy the classes and love their teachers. Thinking Caps supported them through the Lockdown period. They were inspired and encouraged to improve their Math not only their skills in calculation but also ways of thinking. Thank you Thinking Caps ❤️❤️
Happy Browns Bay Mum
Excellent service, great value, highly recommend Thinking Caps. Our children have had tutoring with these experienced supportive teachers for many years, initially in-person and now online. Consistently achieve great results.

My son has been attending Thinking Caps for a few years now and it has been so amazing seeing his confidence & enjoyment for Maths grow. His tutor Michele is such a supportive, enthusiastic teacher & it was so neat to see how she taught and supported my boy when we had lockdown lessons. His Maths has improved greatly from these lessons. I really can’t recommend Thinking Caps enough.
Amy, Dairy Flat
Thanks to Thinking Caps my daughter now uses the words ‘love’ and ‘maths’ in the same sentence and that was unheard of before! It’s the best money I’ve spent, the results have been absolutely fantastic and the teachers are quite simply superb.
J. Thomas, Red Beach
Thinking Caps made my daughter enjoy Maths for the first time, as she got to grips with the concepts and strategies in a fun way. It was less than a term before she said she was "loving maths now".
B.Marshall, Red Beach
It is great to see my daughter really enjoying her Maths and it is making a difference to her confidence having all your lovely positive comments about how well she is doing.
H. Humphries, Manly
Thanks for the update on Jamie. She is really enjoying the Maths tutoring and is understanding things much better in the classroom. Tutoring is the highlight of her week! Thanks for making such a difference to her learning. We certainly appreciate it.
J. Bateman, Whangaparaoa
Just wanted to say what a great class Sophie & Lucy had last night. Lucy didn’t stop talk about it in fact. It was quite amazing that Lucy could fully explain to us how she was working out her sums with the techniques she has learnt. Previously in programmes we attended for Maths we never really saw what the kids had learnt… I was just given test results which showed they had improved but the kids never had anything to reflect on like the books they have with you. Many thanks from 2 happy parents.
Julia, Dairy Flat
I just wanted to thank you for making my girl’s day yesterday. She came out of your session such a changed girl who had a hunger to do more Maths. She was so ecstatic and could not stop raving about you and how you make Maths so much fun! Whatever worries she had before hand – have gone out the door and she is looking forward to her next meeting with you. I had her in the car on the way home non stop talking about her session! So keep up the great work with helping kids – you’ve got some fans from our household.
Talie, Red Beach
Thanks for all your help with our son with his maths – it’s great that he does enjoy it and is learning to understand all the concepts much better.
D. Farrow, Manly
Hi Michele, Thanks for your email. It’s so great to hear about Amie’s triumphants. I’ve definitely noticed a difference in her self-confidence and attitude towards Maths recently and after each lesson with you, we look at her book together… I just wish we’d come to you a year ago! Thanks so much.
Kate, Red Beach
I just wanted to say how amazing I think your classes are. My daughter came home SOOOO excited about Maths and couldn’t wait to tell me what she learnt. She’s had a Maths test at school today and only got 1 wrong. The credit is all to your teachings. Money well spent in my book. I just wish we got onto you a year ago!!!
Charlotte, Stanmore Bay
Thanks so much for what you’re doing for my daughter. I am frankly astounded at the progress. She is an entirely different girl to the one at the beginning of the term. Pretty soon she’ll be better than me and then I’ll have to book myself in to catch up!
Harley, Orewa
Just to let you know that Chris achieved 98% in his Mathathon test at Level 5. I know that your strategies have helped him achieve this.
G. McKinstry, Gulf Harbour
I feel confident, that in coming to you our son is moving forward with his Maths and this helps him develop confidence generally.
C. Clarke, Stanmore Bay
I just wanted to say thank you, thank you, thank you!!! My daughter came home from school yesterday and was just buzzing. Maths is now her favourite subject at school and she is feeling successful. She says she loves Friday’s now because of Maths tutoring. Wow, that’s half the battle! She now asks me to quiz her on basic facts, which was something she was so reluctant to do prior to coming to you!
A. Mackereth, Red Beach
Since my daughter has joined your classes we have been delighted with the improvement in her grasp of mathematics. She has improved dramatically in her school class placement and really enjoys this subject that she once dreaded! She constantly does mathematical sums and looks on it as a game now rather than a school subject. In fact, I am always amazed at some of the very clever ways you have taught her to remember calculus. So our sincere thanks for making it such a fun class and something she really looks forward to participating in.
S. Anderson, Manly
In a short period of time, Thinking Caps has given our daughter the confidence she needed to help improve her Maths and grasp the basic foundations to help her overcome early obstacles and fear of BIG numbers. We can’t thank you enough! Kara has a totally different outlook now to Maths!
Kate & Simon, Red Beach
We are pleased with our son’s progress to date. Many thanks to the team at Thinking Caps for that. He really does have a much better attitude towards Maths now, which is awesome!
M. Taylor, Red Beach
I cannot thank you enough for your work with my daughter. Honestly, it’s a huge weight off my shoulders to see that she is now starting to make improvements. She came home extremely proud of herself today, which is fantastic, such a confidence boost for her. She couldn’t wait to tell me… Yay !!! I am looking forward to watching her coming on further with your help again for the rest of the year.
Jeni, North Shore
Hi Julie, Thanks so much for the feedback. I’ve certainly noticed a difference with his confidence when having to do his maths homework, its no longer a big battle like it used to be!! ???? He always comes out of the sessions very happy and bursting with enthusiasm – so thanks so much – we both think you’re awesome!!
Lisa, Stanmore Bay
Our son is really enjoying Thinking Caps and looks forward to it all week! He no longer thinks Maths is a big scary jumble of numbers, which is absolutely fantastic to see. So a big thanks from very relieved parents!
Pamela, Whangaparaoa
Thinking Caps has been absolutely brilliant for our daughter… not only has she gained a better understanding of Maths but she has also gained confidence which has shown through in her other school subjects. We have also noticed how much enthusiasm she now has for Maths. Her bedroom windows have times tables, prime numbers and factors of written all over them… We couldn’t be more pleased with the results she has achieved through Thinking Caps!
Michelle & Kevin, Red Beach
Thank you so much for your feedback on my boy. He is loving the extra Maths class and is coming along nicely! I agree with you that his whole attitude has changed. I have parent interviews at the end of the month, so hopefully it is noticeable in class too! You’re doing such a great job with my son and I really appreciate it! GO THINKING CAPS!
Kelly, Whangaparaoa
"I must say I have been very pleased with our son’s progress and I have seen a great improvement in his Maths. I thank you so very much for the help we have been given with our son. I will highly recommend your lessons and would not hesitate in passing on my recommendations to anyone."
Sharon, Silverdale
"Thanks Thinking Caps! My daughter was telling me she’s understanding things she never could of before! To see her light up when explaining things to me because she actually ‘gets it’ is so beautiful! In fact I think it is giving her confidence in her other school work too. She spent so long last night on science – really trying to prepare for a test today. So thank YOU! What you are giving her is not only skill but self-esteem, and that makes a mothers soul sing!"
Fleur, North Shore
"Thank you so much for your great feedback on our son. It is great to see he has made such wonderful progress and I think the confidence he has gained from Thinking Caps has influenced his attitude to his overall schooling. We really appreciate how you have managed to “tune-in” to him and make such great progress. We will continue to recommend your programme to other parents!"
Holly, Browns Bay
"Many thanks for the great feedback. I was going to email you this evening to let you know how much our son enjoyed the class, how he had lots of fun, and how happy he was to come home and show us his maths book and flashcards. We are also pleased to see the progress he has made after just one class! Thank you for making learning fun and helping our boy to improve his maths!"
