Ellen MacDonald
Owner
Hi there! My name is Ellen MacDonald and I’m the owner of NumberWorks’nWords Kilbirnie. My journey with NumberWorks’nWords started in 2010 when I was an English tutor in Rotorua during my senior high school years. It continued through my university years in Wellington where I managed the Lower Hutt centre for several years before becoming an owner here in Kilbirnie! I’m trained as a Primary school teacher and have a passion for creating “lightbulb moments” for students where something that was previously difficult or out of reach becomes clear.
One of my goals is to foster a love of learning for my students so that they can be lifelong learners. When I’m not in the centre I’m usually curled up with a book, at the gym lifting weights or with my husband visiting our family up and down the motu. I’m always keen to talk about how I can help your child reach their full potential so please reach out!

Frequently asked questions
What are the lesson times?
Our centres run one-hour tutoring sessions after school, Monday to Friday, usually starting from 3:30pm. We aim to be as flexible as possible to fit around your child’s other activities. Just let us know what works best for you!
What ages do you teach?
We work with students aged 5 to 16, covering all levels of ability; from early learners to those preparing for exams or needing extension work (more of challenge).
What subjects do you teach?
At NumberWorks'nWords we specialise in both maths and English.
What happens if my child is sick and can't make it?
Let us know as soon as possible. We’ll cancel your child’s tutoring session for that day and schedule a make-up session during the same term.
