1-on-1 online tutors for New Zealand students

Online tutoring in New Zealand from Science with Shobha: Math, Physics, Chemistry, Biology and English, taught to school students through live, one-tutor-one-child online classes. Lessons follow the New Zealand Curriculum and NCEA Levels 1–3 (Cambridge and IB at some schools), so what your child learns with us is exactly what is tested at school.

New Zealand is 7½ hours ahead of Chandigarh (India Standard Time) right now. New Zealand afternoons fall in the Indian morning — one of the easiest time-zone matches we teach.

Indian families in New Zealand are the second-largest Asian community in the country, concentrated in Auckland (Mount Roskill, Sandringham, Papatoetoe, Botany), with growing groups in Wellington, Christchurch and Hamilton, and almost all their children are in New Zealand Curriculum schools heading for NCEA. The two things we are asked for most are maths at an Indian standard in Years 5 to 10, where the NZ curriculum moves slowly, and NCEA Level 1 to 3 Mathematics, Chemistry and Physics with the internals and externals planned. After school in New Zealand is a late Indian morning: one of the easiest time-zone matches we teach.

“My son has improved significantly in science subjects and he is performing very well .This would not have been possible without Shobha's classes. I would strongly reccommend her for any one who is seeking help with science subjects. Thank you Shobha.”
