Eddie Woo

Eddie Woo teaches mathematics at a comprehensive public high school in Sydney, Australia. He is also the author of several popular maths books and has presented television programmes in Australia. His channel shares the teaching he does every day.

Most videos are filmed lessons and short explainers. He works at a whiteboard, talks through each step and keeps asking why a rule works, not just how to use it. Topics run from fractions and algebra to calculus, sequences and financial maths such as annuities. There are also worked questions from the New South Wales HSC exams, which sit at a similar level to A level maths.

Some highlights include:

A careful walk through the final question of an HSC Mathematics Advanced exam, a long multi-step problem that rewards clear working.

An explanation of why the ‘keep, change, flip’ rule for dividing fractions actually works.

A look at the reasoning behind the rule for multiplying fractions, built up one step at a time.

The channel has over 2 million subscribers.

Maths sits underneath every engineering degree. Almost all UK engineering courses ask for A level maths, and confidence with algebra and calculus makes the first year much easier. Eddie Woo is a good way to fill gaps, revise before exams or simply see the logic behind the methods you already use.
