As well as maths sessions (lasting up to 75 minutes), he is happy to do talks on space, maths and music, and author Q&A sessions. If you are planning book sales, he would be delighted to meet kids and sign at any free time during a visit. He can also do maths sessions for teachers, either after school or for conferences.
“A stand-up maths routine has children and teachers in fits of laughter...maths has never been so much fun.” – Times Educational Supplement.“Today’s talk ranks as the most entertaining event we have ever had.” - Victoria Nemeth, maths coordinator, Highgate Junior School
