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.
Topics covered include: Algebra; Trigonometry; Differentiation; Conic sections; Integration

Kia ora! My name is Kate Staniford, I am the Principal at Twizel Area School. I have been a Mathematics teacher for more than 20 years in both Wales and New Zealand. I live in Twizel with my husband and daughter. We have another daughter who lives and works in Christchurch. At home, we have a rescue pup called Theo and a very noisy Siamese cat called Elvis. My favourite things to do are Maths (obviously, lol), walking the dog and having a paddleboard at the lake.
