NumberWorks'nWords Takapuna

Takapuna Staff

Owner: Jackie Pound

Hi we are Andrew and Jackie. We own and manage the Birkenhead and Takapuna NumberWorks'nWords centres. Andrew runs Birkenhead and Jackie the centre at Takapuna.

Our two daughters are also involved in the business, one as a tutor and the other as a student (and part-time office worker).

We both came from teaching backgrounds. Jackie's most recent roles in schools were spent specialising in GATE (gifted & talented education) and FPS (Future Problem Solving) programmes.

The thing that keeps us so motivated is working with children and helping them to be the best they can be. This means success in maths and English, and just as importantly, it means watching them grow in confidence and self-belief.

We believe in creating a vibrant, happy environment that students of all ages look forward to being a part of. We hope that things are taught and caught that will help children later in their precious lives.
