Course Overview
Calculus is a course designed for students with good algebra skills. Calculus is about using mathematics to solve problems. It models real-life situations using trigonometry, real and complex numbers, functions and their graphs and uses the power of calculus to solve a wide range of everyday problems involving change. Calculus is the essential prerequisite for students planning on studying engineering at university.

Hi. My name is Sue Mattingly and I teach at Southland Girls' High School located in Waihopai (Invercargill). I teach maths and technology at the moment. Mathematics is my passion and I love facilitating learning and creating resources to meet student needs. Making learning flexible and catering for individual student needs is really important to ensure positive outcomes for students. I live on 10 acres in town. We have hens, sheep and highland cattle as well as a mini schnauzer called Happy. We host international students that attend SGHS. This year we have a Thai student and a student from Hong Kong.
