What is it like to Meet a Mathematician?

Hear from the past participating schools about their experience meeting a Mathematician virtually.

"The format definitely suited our class, the content was interesting, and the difficulty level and the balance between the amount of talking and hands-on activities was spot on."

- Year 10 teacher, NSW

"We really enjoyed the program. The puzzle you ran with the students was excellent. The level of difficulty was appropriate and the format of the hour was just right."

- Year 10 Teacher

"The feedback I have received from the students has been very positive and we would be keen to book in again."

- Year 10 teacher, rural NSW

"Our Year 12 Mathematics Extension 1 students had one of the University of Sydney researchers take over their classroom and they had an awesome time. Hopefully with this initiative, more students will pick mathematics in the university and enjoy mathematics in the process."
