I rangona e au a Tatere McLeod i te hōtaka Manako (te 19 o Pipiri). Kua tohua ia hei māngai mō te Tairāwhiti ki te poari reo Māori, ko Mātāwai. He taiohi ia, he tangata i ako ai i te reo Māori hei reo tuarua ( i 17 ōna tau i te wā tae mai ia ki Aotearoa i Āhitereira); ka mutu, he matua ia, he tangata hūmarie, ngāwari tōna wairua, ahakoa he mātanga reo ia. Me mihi ki ōna whakaaro akiaki ki ngā tauhou ki te reo Māori. Nō reira, whakarongo mai ki te hōtaka (kei konei hoki tana kōrero tahi me Willie Jackson – i te reo Pākehā tēnei.

I'm Pākehā, but have a reasonably good working knowledge of te reo Māori ('āhua mōhio' means 'reasonably knowledgeable'), and I'm keen to share it with others. I graduated with a PhD in Māori Studies from Otago University in 2018, taught at Te Wānanga o Aotearoa for 18 months in Dunedin from 2019 to mid-2020, and have been teaching privately since.
I'm also interested in education generally, and have been heavily influenced by the researchED movement, and figures such as Daisy Christodoulou, Tom Bennett, Adam Boxer, Tom Sherrington, Oliver Caviglioli, Barry Smith and Doug Lemov.
I teach te reo Māori to adult learners (groups or individuals, mostly via Zoom). I teach beginners and intermediate learners. Modest fees, in keeping with my modest reo Māori expertise.

Mauriora tātou!
